FWIW I don’t think that AI is an existential threat, nor on track to become one. I do however think that the leaders of the biggest AI companies, AI’s strongest boosters, and some of the folks who are most adept at using it to exploit others are actively hastening along OTHER existential threats.

People should listen to the whole thing, and I will echo that @deathpanel.bsky.social @reallandsend.bsky.social has been doing this work a long time and has contributed so much to so many organizers.
the frame of Health Fascism moves away from individual MAHA behaviors and towards how our health care and social welfare systems, such as they are/aren't, were fertile ground for a far right power grab. @deathpanel.bsky.social has been exploring this for a long time. the full panel chuds clipped:

Yes they absolutely are. And the message this sends to other people of colour in academia is ‘we weaponised the press against him and we can do it against you’.

There’s so much shame to go around here. But there’ll be fuck all contemplation or reflection from the press or Cambridge.

The racist ex-Cambridge professor who led the campaign vs. Arday, Nathan Confas, has said that in a meritocracy Blacks would “disappear from almost all high-profile positions outside of sports and entertainment.” He was on Megyn Kelly the other day pushing his witch hunt. Mainstream media did this.
I didn't follow the Arday story closely. It's pretty clear though that plagiarism allegations against Black professors are seen as a major news story because many ppl see Black success and intelligent as automatically illegitimate. So the real "scandal" is that Black ppl are professors at all. 1

FFS, You don’t even have to look *outside Cambridge* for examples of white professors who have behaved far, far worse and not only kept their jobs, but have been protected and celebrated by both their institution and the media.

we appear to have four competing fascist movements jockeying for control: blood & soil nazism under miller and hegseth, darwinian ecofascism from rfk, technofascism under vance and musk, and one Big Wet Hitler who understands the true animating core of the american volk is a deep love for shopping

the united states might be the only country on the planet where its military is entirely volunteer based but the majority of discourse around it acts like conscription exists. i hope people can maybe read the room a little when soldiers are currently slaughtering people in west asia again
