Here’s a book about people describing similar experiences during the nazification of another country, it’s called They Thought They Were Free. I’m going to spoiler a link to a copy so it doesn’t autoload a swastika on our cool people board. This book isn’t about politics, it’s about how it feels when your country falls to fascism.

What are the means by which the regime’s dictator would be removed should he be found to have done what we all know he did? None? We’re still fucked and we still need to [scene missing] because the regime has absolute power over the government of the colonies.

I didn't think Star Trek was racist.2·3 days ago1751, in Oxford and Cambridge student slang, “a trick, jest, hoax, imposition, deception,” a word of unknown origin; it also appeared simultaneously as a transitive verb, “deceive by false pretext.” A vogue word of the early 1750s; its origin was a subject of much whimsical speculation even then. “[A]s with other and more recent words of similar introduction, the facts as to its origin appear to have been lost, even before the word became common enough to excite attention” [OED].
THERE is a word very much in vogue with the people of taste and fashion, which, though it has not even the penumbra of a meaning, yet makes up the sum total of the wit, sense, and judgment of the aforesaid people of taste and fashion. This word is HUMBUG. [The Student, vol. II no. 2, 1751]

ordinarylove@lemmy.blahaj.zoneto Mildly Infuriating@lemmy.world•AI for good, with caveats: How a keynote speaker was censored during an international artificial intelligence summitEnglish25·4 days agoGENEVA, Switzerland — On Tuesday, United Nations’ flagship platform for artificial intelligence, The AI for Good Global Summit 2025, kicked off in Geneva. But the commencement of the summit wasn’t without controversy. Hours before the keynote speaker, Abeba Birhane—founder and lead of the TCD AI Accountability Lab (AIAL) and one of Time magazine’s 2023 100 Most Influential People in AI—was set to take the stage, she was asked by organizers to remove some of her slides.
Specifically, the organizers wanted Birhane to “remove anything that mentions ‘Palestine’ ‘Israel’ and replace ‘genocide’ with ‘war crimes‘” and “a slide that explains illegal data torrenting by Meta.”
“In the end, it was either remove everything that names names (big tech particularly) and remove logos or cancel my talk,” Birhane, whose research focuses on algorithmic bias and AI ethics and fairness, wrote in a Bluesky post.
Whelp I guess we now know you can’t beat the TESCREAL cult by showing up to their propaganda summits and trying to do a TED Talk.
