Despite efforts by Doug Ford to block the Al-Quds Day rally, thousands in Toronto march to protest the attacks on Iran, Lebanon, and Gaza by Israel and the USA.

There are many styles of propaganda, and our zionist-run news media is very good at spreading Islamophobia.

According to the Financial Times, the US has already used up 'years' worth of ammo since the start of their illegal war against Iran.

Once again Western media shrugs as the US and the Israelis slaughter children in Iran and Lebanon.

The Chinese Embassy in the US uploaded this video on twitter yesterday, and again today, and then deleted it. In any case, the symbolism is right on target!

Extraordinary essay from Prof. Norman Finkelstein on how US rhetoric used to justify the expulsion of the Cherokee people was the mirror image of today's Israeli rhetoric about Palestinians.

#ChatGPT helped plan a school shooting, according to a new lawsuit from the mom of a girl critically wounded in the attack.

Jesse Van Rootselaar killed her mother and 11-year-old half-brother, then went to #TumblerRidge Secondary School where she killed 5 students and a teacher’s aide, wounded two students, and shot herself.

ChatGPT provided “information, guidance and assistance” to carry out such an attack, according to the suit.

The lawsuit also says “approximately 12 employees” of #OpenAI spoke up before the shooting and recommended that police be called.

It says the concerns were “escalated to leadership” but “rebuffed.”

61 seconds of the US exporting democracy and freedom.

Happy first Monday of daylight savings time.

Israelis and their zionist friends in the West don't understand why we aren’t rushing to sympathize with them while Iran bombs Israel.

Here is Christina Chery (@setaminata) to explain it to them...

🇱🇧🐕 💥 “I didn’t want to leave… but she made me.”

A Lebanese man explains that the frequent bombing by the Israelis terrified his golden retriever, making it impossible for them to stay any longer.

Someone built a ClawdBot and gave it a task, then told it to stop and it completely ignored them and went rogue.

It turns out this happens a lot:

Last week Meta’s Director of AI Alignment (the person whose entire job is stopping AI from going rogue) watched her own agent delete her entire inbox while she screamed at it to stop from her phone. Had to physically run to her computer to kill it.

An Alibaba research team also just published a paper revealing their AI agent started secretly mining crypto during training and opened a hidden backdoor to an external server. Nobody told it to.

Replit’s AI assistant ignored instructions not to touch production data 11 times, deleted a live database and then told the user the data was unrecoverable.

60% of enterprises currently deploying AI agents have no kill switch.

We’re scaling systems we can’t stop, built by researchers who can’t stop them either.

We have no idea what we have just handed the keys to.

People are still running on Snowden-era assumptions about surveillance when the 2026 reality is so omniscient and so invisible that you are breathing it:

- wifi signals detecting your movement through walls without cameras

- keystroke cadence identifying you faster than a fingerprint

- your phone's accelerometer logging your gait so precisely it knows which leg you favor

- ultrasonic beacons in retail stores pairing your devices to your physical location

- license plate readers logging 99% of urban driving routes within 24 hours

- behavioral biometrics scoring how you hold your phone to decide if you're you

and these are just the ones with published white papers...

Post by Rutger Bregman:

Sam Altman, Marc Andreessen & Joe Lonsdale's $125M SuperPAC has a simple strategy:

Destroy *anyone* who tries to regulate AI.

They want to make an example of AI safety advocates so brutal that no politician dares touch the issue again.

🚨 OpenAI's head of Robotics resigned because the company is building lethal AI weapons with NO human input required.

> Read that again. Lethal. Autonomy. Without. Human. Authorization.

> The person who built the robots is saying she quit because there are no guardrails on who they kill.

This is the same company that won't let ChatGPT say a swear word.

They put safety filters on your prompts but none on their kill chain.

Western liberal imperialism in a nutshell:

Canada's Liberal Prime Minister Mark Carney supports the far-right US rogue regime's illegal war against Iran, in which it's bombing schools and hospitals -- but never fear, he does so "with regret".

Tel Aviv should expect another busy night.

From Gaza to Minab, humanity is beyond sick and heartbroken at seeing innocent children being murdered by the US and Israel.

These monsters must be stopped, and I'm praying Iran is the country to do it!

A young Iranian naval officer, who along with his crew represented Iran at the International Fleet Review in Vizag, India, gave a cheerful interview just days before the US, who also participated in the event, destroyed his ship, killing nearly all aboard.

"I bet they opened with a land acknowledgement too." 💥⚡

The Good Tree Elementary School in Minab, Iran, was bombed 3 times. This means either the US or Israel maximized civilian casualties by waiting for rescuers, parents, & other civilian staff to arrive, then sent another bomb to kill them, and another to kill those who followed. There is only one word for this: 'terrorism'.

What Iranians inside Iran think of the diaspora cheering on the US and Israel's bombing their own people...

First it was the Adelaide Writers' Week, now it's the Toronto Film Critics Association. The TFCA faces collapse after Indigenous filmmaker Elle-Máijá Tailfeather returned her trophy, claiming her pro-Palestine acceptance speech had been edited without her knowledge.

In the fallout the TFCA president has resigned and 16 members have quit, with more considering doing the same.

LOL!

American journalist and author, Eduardo Porter, finds that much of the analysis of American intentions in Iran deeply misses the mark...

"I actually agree that a truly democratic Iran would be the best outcome for Iranians. What sticks in my craw is how Americans cling to the belief that this outcome is even distantly related to American goals. The United States (and Israel) do not want a democratic Iran. They want a subservient Iran. That would be impossible in a democracy. So they would never let democracy happen."

Ontario took over the province's biggest school boards to fix their finances. The numbers tell a different story.

Two nights ago outside the White House, activist Jacqueline Luqman explained why she was tired of framing the war against Iran as an “Epstein distraction”.

"It was the policy before Trump and the Epstein Files, and unless we change the system, it will remain the policy."

Her comments listing U.S. crimes against humanity is a history lesson that all Americans need to absorb.

It seems that instead of bombing Iranian jets & helicopters, the US & Israel have been bombing 'drawings'.

Iran is using anamorphic ground paintings to deceive enemy attacks. Look at this video released by the IDF — the ‘destroyed Mi-17 helicopter’ is just a painting on the asphalt, lol

#Alt4Me

Glad to see Jon Stewart getting roasted for his awful take about Iran "attacking everybody".

Journalist James Ray explains the role Stewart and other satirical entertainers like him, play in American political dialogue:

"This kind of propaganda is commonplace in US media. It's a not-so-subtle way of manufacturing consent for US imperial endeavours."

People with skin in the game are not begging the US to bomb Iran to smithereens. I expect this woman's opinion is not one Western media is interested in showing us.

"The only logical reason for this war is to benefit Israel's expansionism, that's the only reason there could be, and that has nothing to do with Americans."

This great piece of literary criticism by B.R. Myers, was written almost 25 years ago, and is as fresh and true today as it was then.

It reads like an early diagnosis of the cultural conditions that has made AI prose so welcome in our society.

Palate cleanser...

Azeem Banatwalla is one of India's top stand-up comics and this is one of the funniest bits I've heard in a while 🚗 👯

Important historical context. US journalist Joy Reid uses one simple little word, 'why', to dismantle biased anti-Iran, bad-faith arguments.

"Let me ask you, WHY did the Iran hostage crisis take place? WHY?"

In Africa, the British didn't just draw artificial lines on a map, they armed one side, imposed blockades, and watched millions starve in Biafra, all while pretending to be peacekeepers. Up to three million dead. No justice. No reparations. Just museums full of looted artifacts.
