I don’t think people realize how dangerous the ability to generate photorealistic images and videos in instants is. If they combine this shit with AR/VR technology (spoiler: they will) it’s over, we are heading straight into Brave New World.

I literally can't see ANY useful application for it. I use ChatGPT almost every day to help me study languages, write summaries, ask general questions, and simplify things I don't understand.

But what use is it to the average person to be able to generate images and videos that are almost indistinguishable from real life? The only thing I can think of is making funny videos and showing them to your friends, but most of the time it will be used for evil: for blackmail, terrorism, propaganda. I literally can't think of any good use for it. Not even the AI that Google just released that creates virtual worlds like a video game is useful. What good is it to anyone?

Only people I've seen it shilling are annoying crypto and technobros.

It means a small group or a hobbyist can now conceivably create an animated feature film that used to require an entire studio and an industry, genius.

Just like the internet killed magazines, there no longer has to be an intermediary between creator and audience, and no cost to the physical production process.

Machiavelli in The Prince advises that a wise leader will send out a brute to do his dirty work for him in a far away province, and once the brute is done doing the dirty work The Prince ought to come in with his forces an execute the brute he himself put in charge for his brutality, in order to "free the people" from the problem he created in the first place, bask in the heroic glory, but at the same time achieving the political suppression he sought. This is the process which the United States has done with its client regimes over and over, whether it was the Nazis (assisted by Ford and IBM somewhat covertly) or the Israelis (assisted by the entire government openly)

Here is the passage in question

<He, therefore, judged it necessary to give them a good government in order to make them peaceful and obedient to his rule. For this purpose he appointed Messer Remiro d' Orco, a cruel and able man, to whom he gave the fullest authority. This man, in a short time, was highly successful in rendering the country orderly and united, whereupon the duke, not deeming such excessive authority expedient, lest it should become hateful, appointed a civil court of justice in the middle of the province under an excellent president, to which each city appointed its own advocate. And as he knew that the harshness of the past had engendered some amount of hatred, in order to purge the minds of the people and to win them over completely, he resolved to show that if any cruelty had taken place it was not by his orders, but through the harsh disposition of his minister. And taking him on some pretext, he had him placed one morning in the public square at Cesena, cut in half, with a piece of wood and blood-stained knife by his side. The ferocity of this spectacle caused the people both satisfaction and amazement.

While Los Angeles Burned, Rules to Protect Homes From Wildfires Were On Hold
With climate-driven wildfires now capable of raining flaming embers down on far away neighborhoods, scientists say removing vegetation, wood gates and other combustible material within five feet of a home to create an ember-resistant zone is one of the most effective ways to avert an urban firestorm. California in 2020 had enacted a law that mandates the establishment of such protections, called Zone Zero, in wildfire-vulnerable communities.

How Syria became the battleground for Israeli and Turkish influence
Watching the geopolitical landscape in the Middle East in recent months, it would be tempting to conclude that Israel’s strategic position has improved. The same could be said for Turkey. Could this situation constitute a recipe for stability, or presage further troubles ahead? Although engaged in conflict on multiple fronts - Gaza, the occupied West Bank, Lebanon, Syria, Yemen, and Iran - Israel appears to have prevailed for the time being, while the Tehran-led “axis of resistance” seems in disarray. Iran’s military leadership and infrastructure were severely hit during the June war, which also damaged the state’s nuclear programme, although how much it has been set back remains unclear. The Iranian response was muted after the US bombed the Fordow, Natanz and Isfahan nuclear sites on 22 June. Syria, meanwhile, is now ruled by a former al-Qaeda militant whose reputation was laundered at record speed by western democracies. Decades of American and European mobilisation against extremist groups such as the Islamic State and Hayat Tahrir al-Sham were tossed into the garbage within days, further confirming western double standards. Iran’s main logistical route to support Hezbollah in Lebanon has thus been severed. As for the Lebanese movement itself, it has been severely weakened with the loss of leader Hassan Nasrallah and other top figures. It is now under strong pressure, both internal and international, to give up its military arsenal. At the same time, Israel’s ruthlessness in Gaza, which has been turned into a massive killing field as starving civilians queue to receive limited humanitarian aid, has degraded much of its international support. But Israel’s extremist government does not really care about the world’s opinion, as long as western nations continue to provide support (and others, such as Russia and China, remain inexplicably neutral). As for Turkey, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan recently succeeded in neutralising the main security threat along its southeastern border, the Kurdistan Workers’ Party. It also prevailed in its long-sought objective to remove Bashar al-Assad from power in Syria, replacing him with Ahmed al-Sharaa. And last but not least, Ankara has bolstered its global reputation as the go-to mediator in the Russia-Ukraine war. Alongside Israel, Turkey has become a top regional actor. In this context, any path towards stability in sPost too long. Click here to view the full text.

Gegenstandpunkt is a German Marxist journal founded in Münich 1992. They primarily focus on Marx's theories and the analysis of current events from a Marxist perspective. They reject parliamentarianism. Their most well known member is Karl Held, who died in 2010.

As far as I know, they are against Leninism and any other Marxist thought that comes from it. They have been identified as a "left-wing extremist group" by the German governments Federal Office for the Protection of the Constitution, they also say that "Due to their elitist understanding of Marxism, the group is largely isolated in the left-wing extremist scene." (at least according to the German wikipedia article) which I find humorous.

I downloaded two of their English translated books called "The Democratic State Critique of Bourgeois Sovereignty" and "Work and Wealth", and I'm planing on reading them after I've read more Marx's own work, like Capital Volume 1, and the work of other Marxists, namely those from my country of origin and of Left-Communist (Italian Left-Communist, Councilist, Communizers etc.) writers who I'm interested in.

Abortion is an unfortunate necessity but if anyone really wanted to reduce the number of abortions outlawing it isnt the way. The way is providing living conditions. One of the biggest reasons for an abortion is not being economically able to have kid or another kid. There also needs to be paid maternal and paternal leave.

It still seems to me like he named Ford for the social connections rather than the objective ones, Overpass seems like one of the least horrible things the Pinkertons were involved in, I mean they killed people more recently than they did during that time.

>>2425234
I think he just named him because he was the biggest and most well known American financier of fascism. You could dig deeper and name someone like Krupp, or the Bush family, but almost everyone has seen a Ford car and his links to fascism are well established without getting into conspiracies. Its like, even this symbol of American freedom and ingenuity is linked to fascism, and the talk is about the material connection between fascism and liberalism, opposed to the idea that fascism and communism are linked by "totalitarian" ideology.

>the social connections rather than the objective ones

like Fords friends or how he shapes social reproduction with the fordist model? He had fascist newspapers and stuff too. His point is that you dont have fascism without funding from finance capital.

I can understand Americans and their patriotism, mostly because the vast majority of them are extremely ignorant, but I genuinely have never understood people from other countries sucking Uncle Sam's dick.
