To free ourselves from our technofeudal overlords, we must think like Karl Marx. The corporations would asset-strip our brains, but we can take back control A young woman I met recently remarked that it was not so much pure evil that drove her berserk, but rather people, or institutions, with the capacity to do good […]

ATHENS – Margaret Thatcher famously quipped that the problem with socialists is that, eventually, they run out of other people’s money. But what happens when bankers run out of other people’s money, as seems likely to happen soon? Either we end up with another calamitous financial meltdown or we innovate to serve the public interest […]

On the day the Financial Times published its latest article whitewashing the criminally insane troika’s (comprising the EU Commission, ECB and IMF) hatchet job on Greece, which has rendered the country a permanently bankrupt colony, Jacobin published this interview (read here, listen here) in which I lay down three basic facts: First, the referendum ten […]

Footage tied to Jeffrey Epstein’s death in federal custody appears to have been altered before it was shared with the public—despite being presented as unedited surveillance video—according to a joint investigation by WIRED and multiple independent video forensics experts.
Here’s what the analysis uncovered:
Grok’s recent antisemitic turn is not an aberration, but part of a pattern of AI chatbots churning out hateful drivel.

I doubt any of you will recall, but in 2003 I wrote a long post over at a different place, that NATO was dead. It was useless, much like the Concert of Europe that emerged after the 1848 Revolutions in Europe recast and sought to revise the settlement of 1815, set up by Castlereagh-Metternich and Talleyrand.
So, today it’s official: the US-UK Special Relationship is dead. It’s been moribund for a long time, since after the Iraqi invasion there was a huge groundswell of UK citizens that resented their country being the American poodle. Lip service was paid, but now, no longer. That the Brits have to turned to the French says a lot.
To our valued customers,
For decades, we have provided you with top-quality care. Or, when we don’t want to provide you with care, we provide top-quality explanations as to why you aren’t entitled to it.
Customers often express frustration with our company, as these denials take months to process. Today, we are proud to announce a new chapter in our company’s history: an AI health insurance tool that can deny you care instantly. Using the latest in artificial intelligence and machine learning, our path-breaking tool can diagnose your illness, come up with a treatment plan, and then tell you that you don’t deserve the treatment.
Leveraging patented technology, our new tool enables simultaneous communication with doctors and patients. While the software argues with the physician about the merits of emergency heart surgery, the patient can read encouraging messages like “Better luck next time,” “Give us more money,” and “LMAO, can you believe you thought we would cover this?”
My doctor sends me to Brooklyn for an abdominal aortic aneurysm screening. As instructed, I fast for six hours beforehand. I don’t even brush my teeth, for fear of swallowing toothpaste and screwing up the test. I wear a Covid-era face mask to avoid breathing on anyone. The journey takes me to Boro Park, a […]

“After two incredible years, I’ve decided to step down as CEO of 𝕏.” — Linda Yaccarino, in a X post announcing her resignation from the social media platform.
When I was first offered the chance to take over Murder House—back when it was still called Bellwether Manor—the property already had a reputation: historic, haunted, a little misunderstood. But where others saw rot, I saw potential. Yes, strange cries could be heard from outside when the stained-glass windows flew open on windless nights, but that was probably just the madwoman in the attic. The house had good bones, mostly human. Its problems were nothing an exorcism or three couldn’t fix. I believed I could spearhead a revival of this high-profile haunt.
My hopes these days spring not from Europe nor from the United States. Let me be frank on this. I take my hat off to the young people particularly, but not only young people, to Jewish comrades who went out on the street to demonstrate for Palestine, who were beaten up by police, who were […]
