Polymarket, Kalshi and all the rest of these prediction markets need to be wiped off the face of the earth. They provide absolutely nothing of value and are corrupting everything they touch.
I will never believe we're cooked. But I do think that a lot of leftists who consume a ton of social media need to ask how and why they end up repeating lightly laundered far-right discourse.
I think one thing to consider here is that Nazis frequently lie about their beliefs, and it is part of NYT ideology to never question whether someone is being honest about their self-reported political beliefs
Can you stop sanewashing Nazism? Thanks.
This is why RAM is now expensive btw

I mean they were notorious for their media clout back in 2014. It's one of those things that IMO is overlooked when it comes to terrorist groups like ISIS.
Or future biodiesel plants. (Though I'm almost certain this was a sick joke)
when a freedomcel says something so surveillancephobic you gotta hit them with the palantir stare
The State of Israel is in some sense extremely lucky. Every time that they commit some sort of horrendous completely morally indefensible atrocity, an idiot online will say something so profoundly stupid and ahistorical about Jewish history that it instantly derails the conversation abt the atrocity
This has been a thing for a while.
I don't have the long history of it, but research on this phenomenon of "search engine data voids", funded in part by some of the large search engine vendors, is between 7-10 years old now; and the problem only seems to have gotten worse by the intentional product design decisions of those companies
The political effects of X's feed algorithm https://doi.org/10.1038/s41586-026-10098-2 Received: 16 December 2024 Accepted: 4 January 2026 Published online: 18 February 2026 Open access • Check for updates Germain Gauthier,5, Roland Hodler?5, Philine Widmer35 & Ekaterina Zhuravskaya3,4,5 m Feed algorithms are widely suspected to influence political attitudes. However, previous evidence from switching off the algorithm on Meta platforms found no political effects'. Here we present results from a 2023 field experiment on Elon Musk's platform X shedding light on this puzzle. We assigned active US-based users randomly to either an algorithmic or a chronological feed for 7 weeks, measuring political attitudes and online behaviour. Switching from a chronological to an algorithmic feed increased engagement and shifted political opinion towards more conservative positions, particularly regarding policy priorities, perceptions of criminal investigations into Donald Trump and views on the war in Ukraine. In contrast, switching from the algorithmic to the chronological feed had no comparable effects. Neither switching the algorithm on nor switching it off significantly affected affective polarization or self-reported partisanship. To investigate the mechanism, we analysed users' feed content and behaviour. We found that the algorithm promotes conservative content and demotes posts by traditional media. Exposure to algorithmic content leads users to follow conservative political activist accounts, which they continue to follow even after switching off the algorithm, helping explain the asymmetry in effects. These results suggest that initial exposure to X's algorithm has persistent effects on users' current political attitudes and account-following behaviour, even in the absence of a detectable effect on partisanship.
A new paper shows that less than 2 months of exposure to Twitter’s algorithmic feed significantly shifts people’s political views to the right.
Moving from chronological feed to the algorithmic feed also increases engagement.
This is one of the most concerning papers I’ve read in awhile.
When Jews become Nazis, they start parroting old racial antisemitic beliefs about the pathologically diseased Jewish body, but turning them onto themselves.
The real question is: Was there ever a Himyarite Talmudic mafia?
Chomsky engaged in manufacturing consent for narcissistic creeps with delusions of intelligence.
But if you want to be aware of an actual dogwhistle from Islamic extremists and even Baathists, it would be references to trees and stones. It's a reference to a notorious Hadith.
A reference to the number of Muhammad's soldiers during the Battle of Badr, and the number of loyal followers of the Mahdi (tl;dr Islamic messiah) during a future armageddon. Generally, the Mahdi plays a more significant role in Shia Islam than it does in Sunni Islam.
313 is basically a shia extremist red flag IMO

I cannot fathom how idiotic this guy behaves.
Hasan going on a paid Chinese propaganda tour and then coming home to say that Democrats—one of if not *the* most pro-trans political party in the world—would shoot trans people for votes is beyond absurd
people like this should be heckled, bullied, and shamed every time they open their mouths
Remember stadia?
It is remarkable how bad investors are at understanding reality and allocating capital, and how much impact reactionary memetic thinking and newfangled hypebeast-ism has on the market.
We don’t owe them anything. They spent a decade ignoring obvious evidence implicating the most guilty while fabricating insane accusations against the innocent.
