  • I don’t think anyone here is going to object to calling Zionism racism. But is it possible, at all, for the Greens to be a little more… you know… politically savvy about this?

    I reckon the leadership of the Greens is fuming their arses off. On the one hand it’s what the members voted on at the conference. On the other hand it’s like handing a grenade to everyone to blow them up with. It plays directly into the victim complex the right wing Israeli politicians have allowing them to justify their campaign of genocide. It also gives the party yet another media mess to manage.

    Just a little bit amateurish for not a lot of gains.





  • Earlier this year Gary Linekar and over 100 other British millionaires asked prime minister Andy Burnham to increase their wealth tax as they can “afford it”.

    Yes the government should increase their wealth tax, no questions about that…

    But Millionaires And Co. could also start a fund and plough their wealth into that. They probably have access to top notch accountants that could maximise the value of this fund. They don’t need to wait for the government to do it for them. Just do it!












  • The organization sued under California’s Unfair Competition Law, arguing OpenAI’s “unlawful and unfair business practices” diverted work and resources to responding to the Hugging Face incident.

    This ain’t going anywhere. Hugging Face already had a large chunk of OpenAi money to keep quiet about the incident. No doubt they’ve waived their rights for future litigation too. A bunch of public interest lawyers in the US isn’t going to help. The government won’t allow it.
