The AI industry is making the rich richer while raising costs for everyone else. By 2030, AI processing will cost $6.7 trillion. Dems could win a major economic victory by standing up to Big Tech. From @DylanGyauchL and @MaxMoranHi @revolvingdoorDC: trib.al/2wM53le

Democrats must oppose the AI industry. Our @DylanGyauchL and @MaxMoranHi lay out the case this morning in a piece for @TheProspect. "As currently constructed, AI is an oligarchy-enriching, worker-immiserating, energy-depleting, brain-rotting economic bubble in waiting." 1/4

The Lindsay Ellis video let me fully feel some things I've been forcing myself to suppress just to get through the day. She covers the hardest possible ground with compassion, care, deep research, and humor where appropriate. Do yourself a favor. piped.video/watch?v=QwpanShg…

Just to be clear, there's a 19 year old college dropout moron named "Big Balls" who is singularly responsible for: literal millions of deaths, the military occupation of Washington D.C., and potentially every single person in the country having their identity stolen
The whistleblower report from SSA's Chief Data Officer is insane, everybody should read it. Without any means of tracing access or use, "Big Balls" uploaded American's SSNs, DOB, health info, and more into an unauthorized cloud environment—and every American could need a new SSN.

NEW from our senior fellow @MaxMoranHi w/ @jeffhauser, @DylanGyauchL: The tech wonder boys have always been terrible. Democrats shouldn't try to bring them back into the fold "Any tent able to accommodate their outsized egos and influence will have no room for the common good"

If Democrats are serious about fighting Trump and reversing his war on governance, democracy and history, they need to adapt. The political structures of the past are destined to fail in this moment, they need to create new ones, writes our @MaxMoranHi

What about specific policies? 1. Public job guarantee. The job guarantee is highly popular in polls. In the UK, 72% of people support it. In the US, it's 78%, and in France it’s 79%.  There are few policies that enjoy such widespread support, and research shows it can appeal strongly to working-class voters who otherwise feel alienated from the political process.

Women couldn’t imagine an equitable heterosexual relationship where both parties are treated well so they dreamed up the “golden retriever boyfriend” as a consolation prize; a man who is too dumb to be cruel. That’s why now they’re teaching all their boyfriends how to bathe.
