Memphis is home to Elon Musk’s data center empire — and the polluting turbines xAI uses to power them appear to be making residents sick. Justin Pearson has been leading the fight against them, and is now running for Congress to elevate the fight to protect his community. Pearson is running in a district that Tennessee Republicans just gerrymandered, but in sticking to his progressive working class values, and channeling the rage at xAI's noise, pollution, and lawlessness, he could pull off a historic upset.

This is not so difficult to solve, but people like AOC and other communists are trying to sabotage AI data-center projects. Properly engineered SCR and oxidation catalysts are standard, effective technology. Their cost is small compared with the scale of AI data-center projects and the jobs they support. Installing them resolves most of the legitimate local air-quality concerns.

Let's see they don't want data centers or power plants. They just want racism and no technology. I see why they admire North Korea, CRAZY LITTLE COMMUNIST 😜 🤪 😆

It used to be fracking and pipelines were bad. Now it’s computers.

This is classic nihilism- create the enemy (Elon) so that you (AOC) can look like the hero here to save us all from said enemy. It’s hatred of American success. They hate this country and Elon. Progress must be thwarted at all costs

At least Musk is not selling out America to the Muslim Brotherhood for “temporary Socialist Power” you are all Islam’s useful idiots. Think about what you are doing before you kiss your children and grandchildren goodnight. Sharia Law can be difficult for kids to adjust to.

If you and AOC don't like success and civilization, go live in a desert or jungle. Your hatred of humanity is tangible and annoying.

I support this. I am a liberal, I love both of them. I do have a question tho; where are they going to be built? Because, not building them is the equivalent of not building a nuclear weapon while watching your enemies build them. China will run AI and the world if we don’t.

Black Americans complained about the Space Programs since the 1960’s. The small minded and miserable bitter hate filled white,an hating blacks have no idea how to run a safe society. Every space shot was a waste of money “when we have so much hunger right now.” The most destructive force in the US politic is the stupidity of miserable black Americans and their homosexual agenda.
