❌ When Norman Finkelstein was asked why he thought Hen Mazzig was “probably” a child killer, his rationale was simple: Mazzig is an Israeli propagandist.
As it turns out, that’s literally true. Mazzig was reportedly a foreign agent for Israel’s Ministry of Strategic Affairs:
"Were you a propagandist for the Israeli army? That doesn't make you much different from Goebbels!"
Norman Finkelstein tells @HenMazzig he is a 'child killer' and compares him to the famous Nazi.

‼️ When Glenn Greenwald asked Hen Mazzig on this @piersmorgan panel whether Mazzig had denied the famine in Gaza and Israel’s forced-starvation campaign, the Israeli propagandist framed himself as a humanitarian.

The Abundance movement had a lifespan of a fruit fly.
Since writing this book LAST YEAR Ezra Klein has endorsed national rent control, curbs on the growth of heavy industry, and now a sort of forced handicapping of AI capabilities that's right out of Harrison Bergeron.

The U.S. officially began its ALL-OUT WAR against Julian Assange and Wikileaks in 2008 — a campaign that was meant to scare Americans away from supporting his mission.

If AI is going to DESTROY the global labor market, or even the human species, then shouldn’t China and the U.S. work together?
Speaking to Glenn Greenwald, journalist Garrison Lovely makes the case for cooperation with China:
🇨🇳 Beijing is telling the AI panic crowd to calm down.
China’s Foreign Ministry says AI should remain “open and inclusive,” warning that fearmongering, confrontation and “vicious competition” will only derail global AI governance.
There’s clearly no appetite for slowing the race just because others are getting nervous.
