See no evil, hear no evil, unless the right wing is seizing on something. Is that the current motto?

Elissa Slotkin wants college grads to think a Trump job means "buying myself a ton of problems." Her words: "I want that deterrence message." Politicians used to recruit young people into politics. Now a senator promises to ruin them. hotair.com/david-strom/2026/…

Anthropic swears the fund's equity won't go to lobbying or political giving. It doesn't need to. "Large donations to traditional nonprofits" plus money "to deal with its risks" is how you build an AI-safety NGO complex. Why lobby when you can endow the referees?
This is going to be an NGO slush fund. This is a bribe to left-wing politicians to get them on board with AI so that will follow Anthropic's lead on any policy or regulation.

Students supported Mao Students supported Castro Students supported Khomeini Students supported Hitler Students supported Mussolini If find yourself blindly supporting every student lead movement, you’ll be wrong very often, in many eras, on many issues.
A good rule of history: if you find yourself opposing a student movement while siding with the ruling class, you're wrong. Every time, in every era, whatever the issue.
Community note
Student movements have not always been on the right side of history. Mao's student Red Guards persecuted hundreds of thousands. Students helped Castro and Khomeini rise to power, and Nazi student groups opposed the Weimar Republic. britannica.com/topic/Red-Guar… encyclopedia.ushmm.org/content/en/art… aei.org/education/actu

It is absolutely disgraceful to threaten young Americans for participating in politics and serving their country.

Democrats sincerely want to outlaw political dissent, you know, like fascists.
Sen. Elissa Slotkin just said that he wants to prosecute everyone who works for President Trump and that her goal is for young conservatives coming out of school to be afraid of working in a Republican administration

It is not "old, white" men who are polluting the world's rivers and oceans Ten rivers in Africa and Asia (including India) account for around 90% of all plastic pollution carried into the sea, for example America and Europe are quite good about not doing this
I’m so fucking sick and tired of the entire planet being destroyed by old white, insecure, abusive men.
