This is false.
Jamal Harrison Bryant, a Megachurch pastor, has said the boycott is over. He is not leaders, plural. He and his church were not the ones to start the calls for boycott.
Nekima Levy Armstrong, who founded the Racial Justice Network, and other Minnesota civil rights activists were.

The obvious wisdom and effectiveness of Housing First is obscured by the fact we've made "a tiny, no-frills apartment" an expensive status symbol in huge swathes of the country by creating an artificial housing shortage
"I spoke to a former schoolteacher, who started his own business. He says he can no longer compete with these Mexican imports despite providing a higher quality product. I'm fighting for small businessmen like Walter White."
a four-panel stick-figure cartoon panel one: three standing figures. from left to right, a guy wearing a necktie looking at his phone, an angry MAGA guy yelling FUCK YOUR FUCKIN POST FUCK YOU FUCK YOU FUCK YOU, and a rando just standing there like an NPC. panel two: the guy looking at his phone shows MAGA guy his hand, causing MAGA to vanish. the word Block hangs in the air where fuckface once was. a green-bordered in-game message appears, reading "+2 Mental Health." now the rando is suddenly interested. panel three: as our man continues doom-scrolling, a sly grin on his face, the rando on the right puts on a punch-me face and snarls: "Typical lefty, blocking everyone who disagrees with-" panel four phone guy shows the hand to punch-me face, causing the rando to vanish. the word Block hangs in the air where that dickhead was. a green-bordered in-game message appears again, reading "+2 Mental Health."

I don't think this is what is generally branded as "AI" though? Like this is just pretty standard deepfake VFX, they've had this for years.
They're trying to umbrella term "AI" as basically anything done on a computer to obfuscate the actually bad generative LLM shit.

Homophobia is transphobia. Historically, bigots w/ PhDs told parents "your kid will grow up gay if we don't do conversion therapy" and, once being gay was removed from the DSM, told the same parents of the same kids "your kid will grow up trans if we don't do CT."
if any of this symbology or information is new to you, i would absolutely encourage you to start learning about it and become familiar with them

I read through hundreds of emails and scoured through years of correspondence and background information to write this 4600 word report.
It confirms what we all have been saying about the anti-trans movement from the start. Read it from the top down, I can't even begin to summarize it all properly.
Just feelin' like posting this one again.
You want a new flavor of pastoral american ennui?? Put those bitches in a semi rural Midwestern farm town.
based on my learnings from a recent rapid response training, the closest detention center for the kc metro is about 2 hrs away in chase county, ks. core civic *needs* leavenworth to scale ICE terror in our community.

Proof that this entire thing is purely to harass transgender people.
Hi. You cannot be a moderate if you sit down with white supremacists and nod solemnly while they whine in bad faith about trans people. C'mon now.
Everyone in this country MUST watch Let the Fire Burn. Period.

Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads: The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same... - Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist
Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.
I’m very upset, but I’ve got nothing of substance to contribute to the conversation on this platform. When you see me posting through it about random stuff, don’t confuse it for apathy.

Interviewer: You might be able to catch some. It's all completely virtual. It's very simple, but it's also an overlay of physically based information that now exists on top of the real world. Herzog: When two persons in search of a pokémon clash at the corner of Sunset and San Vicente is there violence? Is there murder? Interviewer: They do fight, virtually. Herzog: Physically, do they fight? Interviewer: No- Herzog: Do they bite each other's hands? Do they punch each other?
Happy 30th birthday to Pokémon. Without it, the greatest Werner Herzog quote of all time would not exist.
