While Amazon touts the surveillance state enabled by its Ring cameras, remember...
Amazon's U.S. tax bill dropped by 87% in 2025, mostly thanks to Trump's tax cuts.
Meanwhile, its profits jumped by 45% to nearly $90 billion — and it announced 30,000 job cuts.
Is this the world we want to live in?

AOC on DHS Warehouses: I think every American should be alarmed. They are building—and have built—a black box system that disappears people, both immigrants and U.S. citizens alike.

Folks…
Let’s call MAGA for what it REALLY is: NAZI.
They literally act NO DIFFERENTLY than Adolf’s Brown Shirts.
Not one iota.
Just start treating them as the Nazis they are.

Until GOP congress stands up, impeaches, convicts and removes the Orange Shitgibbon, THEY ARE ALL PEDOPHILES and PEDOPHILE ENABLERS.
EVERY LAST ONE OF THEM.

We absolutely can afford a UBI, and we do need it, regardless of any impacts AI ends up having.
The cost of UBI is its net cost, not its gross cost. If you get $15k and pay $7k higher taxes as part of the deal, that cost is $8k not $15k.
Try calculating the costs of not doing UBI. Include fascism.

My Sunday Times piece: The idea that we will need a universal basic income because of all the jobs that will be displaced by AI is gaining traction, but it is wrong on several counts:
We can’t afford a universal basic income — and don’t need it

If AI massacres jobs, the state will never find £1.5 trillion a year to keep us going. Targeted help would be far more sensible

Bad idea. ICE is pre-funded by the BBB. Also, CBP is just as bad if not worse and also pre-funded by the BBB. Severing ICE gives away any leverage we have to shut down the rest of DHS. We should be demanding to defund ICE/CBP of its BBB money and shut down ALL of DHS if they don’t agree.

I live in Portugal where on any given day between 85% and 90% of its electricity comes from renewable sources. It’s not a wealthy country, but it’s not owned by the oil companies. EVs are plentiful here. The world is leaving the United States behind in so many ways.

In other words, appeal to hatred.
It's something being tried in Canada, too. But I think our multi-party Westminister parliamentary system is more robust to it. As well, we are not subject to:
(a) years-long election campaigns
(b) unlimited political donations
(c) rampant gerrymandering

Now we have the some total of human knowledge in our hands.

This is what Nicolás Maduro did in Venezuela. Nationalize voting, then clamp down on journalists and appoint only partisan judges. Becoming a dictator one step at a time. 🗽
