Stephen Miller is on Fox calling for everyone involved in the CBS “revolt” to be fired.
“The revolt” is called journalism.
They were doing their job.
The person who should be fired is Bari Weiss, who tried to censor and kill a well researched story that the American people had a right to see.

Given Trump’s constant threats against Canada, I think it’s friggin awesome that the killed 60 Minutes segment he didn’t want aired is all over the internet because of Global TV.

It’s never been “easy” to be sick in America or anywhere else.
Ableism is everywhere. Quality care is hard to find.
People like Dr Oz and RFK Jr want you to believe the chronically ill can “try harder” to get better, meanwhile they cut their healthcare & supports.
Eugenics.

60 minutes CECOT segment. Recorded through my browser. HD quality. Not phone. Spread it around. If you're press, it's yours. Go nuts.
It's streaming on a Canadian website, but there is no telling for how long.

This has always been a Bluesky-first campaign. But as of today, we will no longer be using Twitter. At all.
And I'm calling on other candidates to follow suit.

What Im appreciating are the AI pushers revealing how they in fact do not understand how reading or research works, especially in fields that are not tech, or CS.
But they also appear to have a great deal of contempt for those fields, and many of us in those fields.
Thats aside from their charm.

CBS News has embraced their role as a right wing propagandist machine.
They’re airing a program sponsored by Bank of America called “Has Feminism Failed Women?”
They’re doing this at the same time Trump is trying to remove legal protections that ensure women can get loans without a male co-signer.

As folks start to break with MAGA and the GOP, remember that being gentle is a luxury BIPOC and LGBTQIA+ folks don’t get. Meeting "reforming" MAGAts with offers of forgiveness and new community while we’re still dealing with the policies of violence and harm they supported, isn't reform.

This is damn near perfect.
I still can't get over them using "AI" for placeholder *text*. They're literally thinking of words, and instead of using those words as their placeholder, they're plugging them into the bullshit machine to get different words. It's like unplugging your space heater and setting it on fire for warmth.

Techbros seem to love Tolkien, so here's an analogy to help you understand what genAI is.
GenAI is The One Ring. You think your use is justified, b/c you don't have evil in your heart.
But it came from evil, it is intended for evil purpose, & anything you do with it will be twisted to that end.
