I know everybody wants to feel optimistic about Carney, Macron, Merz et al talking about a new post-RBIO system, but remember that they’re only panicking now because the structural barbarism is banging on their own doors. They don’t want to remedy it; just sustain its redirection.

“Carney is right that the old order is not coming back…where his remarks fall short is in their insistence on answering the crises of our time through the lens of neoliberalism…Carney diagnoses a rupture in the global order while leaving intact the economic framework that helped produce it” #cdnpoli
The danger is not that neoliberalism is ending, but that it is being replaced by something worse: a world of militarized competition, eco-fascism, and technocratic management of permanent crisis. Acknowledging the collapse of the old order is not the same as building a democratic alternative to it.
What Mark Carney gets wrong about the end of the rules-based order
To re-establish power, defend sovereignty, and strengthen democratic values, Canada and its allies must do more than challenge the American state. We must also confront the influence of US corporate p...

Pension money meant to provide for the future, while investing in a future that's ugly and dangerous.
Grok, the gas-powered deepfake-generating "anti-woke" chatbot that used to refer to itself as "MechaHitler," attracted a substantial investment from Canadians' pensions.
Canada's pension plan invested $416 million in Musk's deepfake porn-generating AI
The Canada Pension Plan Investment Board (CPPIB) ploughed about $416 million last year into xAI, Elon Musk's AI company. The money helped fund the billionaire's push to build three of the world's larg...

NVidia chief creep says resistance and scorn for AI have done a lot of harm. Good. Nice confirmation it's working. Keep it up. Although the main thing is this stuff is harmful crap so the mind and body tend to revolt against it automatically.

They're already in the wild and they're not specialists in anything except punching holes in drywall when they lose at Call of Duty and following 13 year old girls around the mall.
It’s worth considering that an overnight dismantling of ICE in 2029 would release into the wild a whole herd of specialists in violence with scant other marketable skills.

NEW: Ubisoft had its first meeting with union representatives at its recently shuttered Halifax studio yesterday and has been accused of coming to the table with "nothing."
That seemingly means no proposals for better severance or evidence the closure was based solely on financial necessity.
