this is pretty hard to deny
Based upon their documented behavior over the past few years, the tech industry is less afraid of the potential ramifications of Artificial Superintelligence than they are of Lina Khan.

this would be yet another reason why normal people don’t trust tech tycoons to do the right thing
David Heinemeier Hansson called for the extermination of Romani people, comparing them to animals. An entire roster of tech tycoons responded by each personally giving him $1 million for his open source software project, even though he’s already wealthy enough to have a personal race car team.

"Feel betrayed" is one way of putting it.

He makes it sound like he's in the SHU for being dangerous. No.

Again, he is in the SHU to protect *him* from other inmates. Not because the guards care about him. They don't. But because they don't want to do the extra paperwork when he gets hurt.

In jail, Tate is a chomo (child molester).
For the love of God, take this whiny rapist's phone away.

They really should be explicit in the headline that the rise in South Asian hate rhetoric is stemming directly from the united states government.

On the very day that George Wallace would be inaugurated and say "segregation now, segregation tomorrow, segregation forever" the New York Times reported there were indications he was looking for an off-ramp in his opposition to desegregation.

A great reminder that terms like “the 1%” and “income inequality” were born from the so-called “failed” movement. The value of a movement is often misunderstood and therefore mis-reported by MSM.
15 years ago today, a ragtag army marched on Wall Street, got pushed back into Zuccotti Park, and started an occupation that lasted 2 months

Still ridiculed by the powers-that-be, Occupy Wall Street started a fight over inequality in America that's not over yet www.inquirer.com/opinion/occu...

This is a man who led a company that was convicted of the worst Medicare/Medicaid fraud up to that time.

Now he's getting six figure paycheck on our dime to do virtually nothing. That's some legacy he's leaving.

i'm not over Alito saying we shouldn't count ballots that are mailed on or before Election Day but arrive shortly afterwards bc they can “radically flip” the “apparent outcome”

cannot stress enough that, until all ballots are counted, there's no outcome to flip!

In a lot of ways he is still held back by the self-loathing culture he was raised in. I don’t hate the man, but I do think he climbed ranks far too quickly and as a result makes avoidable mistakes.
