What if there's a point to these incidents being shared with the public, where we're all supposed to get used to AI agents fucking up our systems, deleting files, apparently writing hit pieces on open source maintainers (fake but whatever)? So that when the AI agents we're forced to use break something on our computers, we're going to just shrug and say "that's the price of progress"?

Enough people are convinced that there's no point fighting back against LLM use, and even more assume that the tools will get better/fixed. But then when they won't, we'll be used to the agents deleting a decade of family photos, say.

These positions are no longer noble (if they ever were) and the people that hold those positions have become the most egregious criminals that ever existed.

The files proved just about every conspiracy theory over the last 30 years was TRUE. 9/11 WAS an inside job. The rona WAS a coordinated depopulation agenda.... Even ~further~ back conspiracies turned out to be true - like the CIA killed JFK!

Fairness to whom is the real question in this case. I suppose being a judge entitles you to determine the "who" and the "fairness." But some entity that is unbiased should determine what judges get appointed to the courts.

Also, I am completely uneducated/ignorant in how the judicial system works. However, I obviously have thoughts about what is fair and to whom that fairness should be applied. Just sayin'.

🌏 Le Boeing 727 du pédophile notoire est stationné sur une dalle de béton au centre de réparation et de stockage d'avions commerciaux Stambaugh Aviation à #Brunswick, en Géorgie, depuis 2016. Epstein l'a vendu fin 2018 après l'avoir possédé pendant 17 ans.
🌏 Son extérieur est recouvert de crasse, certaines parties de l'intérieur grouillent d'insectes et sont couvertes de moisissures. On y trouve également des objets ayant pu servir à Epstein et ses complices, notamment un téléphone satellite, un lit, de la lotion pour bébé, des serviettes sales et des serviettes monogrammées. Le New York Post, qui a pu visiter l'avion, a également décrit une odeur de renfermé particulièrement nauséabonde.
🌏 L'immatriculation de l'avion, N908JE, comporte les initiales d'Epstein, comme sur d'autres appareils de JEGE, Inc. qu'il utilisait, notamment les jets Gulfstream N120JE et N212JE.

Expanding a New York City program to help struggling tenants pay rent seemed like an obvious campaign promise for Zohran Mamdani, who staked his insurgent candidacy last year on making life more affordable in the five boroughs.

Now, confronting a grim fiscal picture in his second month as mayor, Mr. Mamdani no longer intends to back the growth of the $1 billion-plus initiative known as CityFHEPS, despite a plan passed by the City Council and upheld in court.

PKK and Kurdish Allies Declare Collusion With US Imperial Aggression Against Iran


Five leading Kurdish parties in Iran—Partiya Demokratîk ya Kurdistanê-Îran-PDK-Î (Democratic Party of Iranian Kurdistan), Partiya Jiyana Azad ya Kurdistanê-PJAK (Free Life Party of Kurdistan), Sazumanî Xebata Kurdistanê-Îran (Kurdistan Organization of Labor–Iran), Partiya Azadî ya Kurdistanê-PAK (Kurdistan Freedom Party), and Komeleya Zehmetkêşan ya Kurdistanê (Kurdistan Workers Association)—have announced the establishment of the Iranian Kurdistan Political Forces Alliance.

This alliance has announced public collusion with US and zionist imperial aggression against Iran, in the western quest to assert its regional dominance in its conflict with anti-colonial Resistance forces.

The statement was issued precisely when the entire world is bracing for the war, and lines are being drawn.

Interestingly, the PKK was just routed in Syria by the new HTS regime. The US, the PKK’s principal backer in the region, had also made clear that PKK political objectives were meaningless, and their role was purely as a compliant puppet force.

PKK leader Ocalan has also started the process of disarming and disbanding PKK’s armed forces in Iraq and Turkey, in a desire to join the reactionary Turkish political system, without any concessions being granted. Notably Ocalan called for the continuation of armed conflict in Iran; the only country allied to the Palestinian Resistance and combating US, zionist imperialism.

With the recent betrayal by the US, the Kurdish declaration appears particularly outlandish and craven. In the coming regional conflict it is not apparent PKK forces will fight alongside western imperialism with no disguise, even with the liklihood of gaining little to nothing from the arrangement.

57 Years of Revolutionary Realism: The Democratic Front and Its Path in the Palestinian National Project


On the 57th anniversary of the launch of the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine, a fundamental question arises in the Palestinian national debate: What enabled this leftist faction to maintain its position at the heart of the national movement, despite political storms, internal divisions, and regional and global transformations?
The answer does not lie in a single event, but rather in an equation that combined political realism with steadfastness in struggle, and field action with mass mobilization, within a vision that consistently sought to reconcile national rights with the demands of the historical moment.

From Founding to Articulating a Political Vision

Founded on February 22, 1969, in the midst of a turbulent Arab and Palestinian context, the Democratic Front did not simply add another organization to the map of Palestinian factions. Rather, it sought to reframe the concept of Palestinian struggle from a leftist, democratic perspective that linked national liberation with social and economic emancipation.

It stood out early on with its bold political program, particularly its 1974 Phased Program, which called for establishing a national authority over any liberated part of Palestine. Despite the fierce controversy it sparked at the time, it later became one of the cornerstones of the Palestinian national program and contributed to shaping the approaches adopted by the institutions of the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO), the sole legitimate representative of the Palestinian people.

In this sense, the Democratic Front did not limit itself to the role of a combatant in the field, but sought to be a partner in shaping the national decision-making process and developing its intellectual and political framework.

Three Pillars Shaped Its Path

Over the course of 57 years, the Democratic Front’s experience has been based on three main pillars, which continue to form its intellectual and organizational structure:

First: Revolutionary Realism

The Democratic Front adopted the principle of “revolutionary realism,” which involves assessing the balance of power with political awareness without abandoning strategic goals. From this perspective, it developed the concept of comprehensive uprising, culminating in comprehensive national defiance, as an advanced form of popular struggle that integrates popular resistance with various forms of struggle within a unifying national vision.

Second: Organizing the People and Building a Social Base

The Democratic Front viewed the masses as an organized force that should be framed within effective democratic structures: labor unions, student organizations, women’s groups, and professional bodies. It clearly linked national liberation with social justice, arguing that defending the occupation is inseparable from defending workers’ rights, students’ rights, women’s rights, and the rights of marginalized groups, and that the national project is incomplete without its social dimension.

Third: Integrating Forms of Struggle

The Democratic Front adopted the principle of complementarity between political action and resistance, and between diplomatic engagement and field action, according to the prevailing political and legal circumstances and available opportunities.

It participated in defending the refugee camps in Lebanon, played a prominent role in the First Intifada (1987) through popular committees and field mobilization, and continued its presence in the Second Intifada (2000), with its leaders and cadres present in various confrontation arenas, including the battles to defend Gaza during the recent war of extermination.

Between Current Challenges and Future Stakes

Today, the Democratic Front – like all components of the Palestinian national movement – faces profound challenges: ongoing internal divisions, declining effectiveness of national action institutions, accelerating regional transformations, and attempts to liquidate the Palestinian cause or reduce it to partial solutions.

Nevertheless, the Democratic Front continues to propose political initiatives based on restoring national unity on the basis of a comprehensive resistance program and genuine democratic reform of the PLO institutions, which reaffirms the principle of partnership and pluralism.

A Renewed Legacy, Not a Fleeting Memory

On February 22nd of each year, the Democratic Front commemorates its launch, not just as a celebratory event, but as a moment of review and renewal.

History is not measured by the number of years, but by the ability of an idea to survive and evolve. Over the course of 57 years, the Front has produced martyrs, wounded, and prisoners from its leadership, fighters, and cadres, in defense of the inalienable rights of the Palestinian people: freedom, self-determination, independence, and the right of return.

This is a journey that confirms that the national project is not preserved by slogans alone, but by organized action, a renewed political vision, and a will capable of adapting to changes without compromising national rights.

After fifty-seven years, the question remains open: how can the Palestinian national project be rebuilt on the foundations of unity, resistance, and social justice?

This is the challenge that constitutes the essence of the political battle in the coming phase.
