In the new TMK, we ask what fuck is happening in the US? The abduction of dissidents by a fascist regime. A system called ShadowDragon. Low rent car commercials at the White House. Human shields of cops protecting Tesla dealerships. And more happening in the abyss! soundcloud.com/thismachinek...

A big part of the problem is stupid people have been convinced by rich people that AI is God, when AI is closer to an automatic dog food dispenser.

In deutschen Talkshows wird gerade intensiv die Frage erörtert, woher die Obszession amerikanischer Faschisten mit Deutschland kommt. Völlig unerklärlich, aber was weiß ich schon.

Keine Beweise, keine Verbrechen. Vor Jahren hat Trump zB Migranten die Kinder wegnehmen lassen, ohne dass aufgezeichnet wurde, wer ihre Eltern waren und wo die Kinder gelandet sind. Heute lässt er Beweise gegen Putin verschwinden. Und eine Datenbank über durch Russen ukrainische verschleppte Kinder

Did Elon Musk really do a Nazi salute? It doesn't matter. He knew how it would be interpreted, and as with Trump, the intent is beside the point. He did it for one reason: To show us that he could, and that there's nothing we can do to stop him. www.bloodinthemachine.com/p/elon-musk-...

Ein paar Gedanken zur Amtseinführung und den letzten 24 Stunden: Trumps 3 Reden markieren einen historischen Bruch. Schon seine erste Rede, die offizielle Inaugurations-Rede, war eine so nie dagewesene Verhöhnung des anwesenden politischen Gegners.

Was wir gerade erleben ist die Ablöse der Hegemonie innerhalb des Kapitals. Es ist nicht mehr das Finanzkapital die bestimmende Fraktion, sondern das Techkapital. Es wäre wichtig Journalismus und Analyse nicht nur im Erstaunen und Entsetzen zu machen, sondern Hintergründe zu begreifen.

Das werden jetzt unsere nächsten 4 Jahre in News Cycle: Elon Musk macht unglaubliches Zeug, etwa einen Nazi-Gruß. Dann rücken er und seine Minions aus und erklären wie gemein die Linken sind und dass er das Gegenteil gemacht hat. Und Medien schreiben „Kontroverse“.
