Last February, soon after the Islamic State Group, also know as ISIS or ISIL, raided the Christian villages around Tel Tamer, Syria, it was clear to Seeham that it would be up to the women to lead the charge to take back their community...

@cstross @ardenthistorian.bsky.social I recommend reading "The #TESCREAL Bundle" to see the connections of these people and their fascist eugenic "scifi" ideologies: firstmonday.org/ojs/index.php/
One author is on Mastodon: @timnitGebru (while @xriskology doesn't seem to be active anymore).

“At the core of this "movement" lurks Curtis Yarvin, whose political ideology - if it can be called such - has provided the intellectual framework for dismantling democracy. His "Dark Enlightenment" philosophy promotes a world where governments serve only the Superior (defined, of course, by Yarvin), a select few inherit power, and the public exists to obey.

At the core of this "movement" lurks Curtis Yarvin, whose political ideology - if it can be called such - has provided the intellectual framework for dismantling democracy. His "Dark Enlightenment" philosophy promotes a world where governments serve only the Superior (defined, of course, by Yarvin), a select few inherit power, and the public exists to obey. Considered fringe by anyone who still maintains contact with reality and decency, his masturbatory notions of hyper-fascism now resonate among maladjusted, incellionaire tech executives and simpering, self-elevating Republicans who seek to shape the world in a sordid and distorted image of ill-conceived faux masculinity. JD Vance considers himself a fan. Peter Thiel funds his work. This is the preferred blogger of a set of men who believe themselves above and better than the concept of democracy. Beyond the cult itself, there are the corporate tech "leaders" - and | use the term both lightly and with utter disdain - like Jeff Bezos, Linda Yaccarino, Sundar Pichai, and others who contribute, collaborate, and betray through their silence, their subservience, and the shame of their complicity.

First, I thought that I couldn't write fiction anymore because #reality gets crazy. Sometimes, I invent #SciFi plots just for fun, without writing. But now reality gets even weirder. I think that's the plan: We don't believe them. So, they install their #dystopic #apocalypse system while we still laugh about that insanity: wired.com/story/startup-nation (it's also archived).

Tech bros are living, breathing embodiments of the false authority fallacy; claiming that their professed understanding of basic logic qualifies them to reason expertly upon every conceivable topic while conveniently ignoring a fundamental maxim of their purported core area of expertise: garbage in, garbage out.

#Techbros break everything -never look back.

#Musk is pitchforking ppl & destroying the govt -wrecking the economy.

He's moving fast & breaking a lot of things. No evidence -he's thought about the consequences of all this destruction *happening too fast for anyone to have had the time to think about what the consequences of these actions might be -not on the lives of those ppl being fired nor on the rest of us & the way basic govt ops to function.

Had a very insightful conversation about the limitations on AI with a marketing copywriter.

Her comment was that actually writing marketing materials is a small part of her job.

If it was just about writing something that persuades a customer to buy a product, it would be a cakewalk.

What takes time is the stakeholder management.

It's navigating conflicting and contradictory demands of different departments.

Legal wants to say one thing. Sales something different. Legal something else entirely.

There's higher-up managers who need their egos soothed.

There's different managers with different views about what the customers want and what their needs are.

And there's a big difference in big bureaucratic organisations between writing marketing collateral, and writing something that gets signed off by everyone who needs to.

She's tried using AI for some tasks, and what that typically involves is getting multiple AI responses, and splicing them together into a cohesive whole.

Because it turns out there's a big difference in the real world between generating a statistically probable output, and having the emotional intelligence to navigate humans.

“Musk and his team of tech bros at the Department of Government Efficiency are not actually promoting efficiency… Rather than looking for efficiency, they are simply working to zero out the government that works for ordinary people, turning it instead to enabling them to consolidate wealth and power.”

"Just as he #Trump and JD Vance ambushed President Zelensky then demanded that he thank them for it, Trump is trying to dehumanize Democrats for failing to praise his heartlessness. It’s made-for-tv cruelty on a perpetual feed loop while the world is forced to watch." #USA #Musk #Vance #Thiel #Yarvin #TechBros #BatshitCrazy #TrumpCrimeFamily #autocracy #kleptocracy #Fascism msn.com/en-au/news/other/trump
