This is Dubai burning on camera tonight. Not a... war zone. Not a conflict state. Dubai. The city that every sovereign wealth fund, every tech billionaire, every luxury brand on earth chose as the safest address in the Middle East. Fires rising between residential towers. Smoke columns visible from the Marina. Exclusive footage from the ground showing what Iranian ordnance looks like when it meets the most expensive real estate on the planet. These images are not from a military briefing. They are from people's phones. Shot from apartments. Shot from hotel balconies. Shot by residents who moved their families and their capital to Dubai specifically because this was never supposed to happen here. Every frame is already being forwarded to every group chat, every boardroom, every family WhatsApp thread of every expat who chose the UAE over Singapore, over London, over Zurich. The calculation that built modern Dubai is being repriced in real time by people watching their skyline burn through their bedroom windows. Dubai spent three decades engineering the most successful city brand in human history. Zero income tax. World-class infrastructure. The implicit promise that geography could be overcome by architecture. That you could build a global financial center 150 kilometers across the Gulf from Iran and it would never matter because stability was the product Dubai sold. Tonight that product is on fire. There are 3.5 million expatriates in Dubai. They represent 85 percent of the population. They have no citizenship. No permanent right to stay. They are there because the math worked: safety plus returns plus lifestyle. When the math changes, they leave. They do not protest. They do not negotiate. They book flights. Except tonight there are no flights. Both airports are closed. The expatriates who power Dubai's entire economy are watching fires from their windows in a city they cannot leave. Iran did not need to hit a single building to achieve this. The interceptions may have been perfect. The air defenses may have worked exactly as designed. It does not matter. What matters is that tonight, on every screen on earth, Dubai looks like a war zone. And Dubai's entire value proposition was that it would never look like this. Three decades of brand building. Thirty seconds of missile flight. The skyline is still standing. The illusion is not.show more

Iran did not strike a military base in Dubai.... It struck the idea of Dubai. Missile debris hit the Fairmont on Palm Jumeirah. Drone fragments set fire to the facade of the Burj Al Arab. A terminal at Dubai International Airport, the busiest hub for international passengers on earth, sustained damage. Jebel Ali Port, which hosts US warships and handles aircraft carriers, caught fire from interceptor debris. Abu Dhabi’s Zayed International Airport took a direct hit. One dead. Seven wounded. The UAE Defense Ministry confirmed intercepting more than one hundred ballistic missiles and two hundred drones. That means Iran fired over three hundred munitions at a country that has spent the last four decades marketing itself as the safest square mile in the Middle East. Dubai is not a military target. Dubai is a financial thesis. It is the proposition that you can build a global city at the mouth of the Persian Gulf and insulate it from the region’s violence through money, architecture, and diplomatic neutrality. Two million expatriates live there. Sixty percent of the emirate’s revenue flows through its airport and seaport. Every sovereign wealth fund in the Gulf has exposure. Every global bank has a regional desk there. Every luxury brand on earth has a storefront on Sheikh Zayed Road. Iran just put a missile through that thesis. Not metaphorically. The Burj Al Arab, the building that appears on every postcard, every airline advertisement, every sovereign wealth fund pitch deck, had fire crews on its roof Saturday night. Dubai’s airspace went dark. Flight tracking maps showed the entire Gulf region virtually empty. Airlines suspended operations. Schools prepared to move online. Residents sheltered in underground parking garages because Dubai has no bomb shelters. The financial implications compound from here. Dubai real estate, the asset class that underwrites half the Gulf’s wealth effect, just discovered it sits within range of Iranian ballistic missiles. Every property valuation on Palm Jumeirah, in Dubai Marina, in Downtown, now carries a war risk premium that did not exist forty eight hours ago. Insurance underwriters who just repriced Hormuz transit are about to reprice Gulf property portfolios. Saudi Arabia was hit. Qatar was hit. Kuwait was hit. Bahrain’s Fifth Fleet base took drone strikes that destroyed a three hundred million dollar radar system. Iran targeted every Gulf state that hosts American forces. The only Gulf country spared was Oman, the mediator. The message is not military. It is economic. Iran cannot defeat the Fifth Fleet. But it can make the Gulf uninhabitable for capital. And capital has no loyalty. Only a return address.show more

I’ve met people in Dubai who left London, New... York, Singapore, Moscow. None of them left because Dubai was perfect. They left because everywhere else stopped making sense. The guy from London got tired of paying 45% tax on every win and watching the city get slower every year. The one from New York couldn’t justify the cost of living for what he was actually getting in return. The one from Singapore felt the walls closing in - great infrastructure, zero soul. None of them came here chasing some dream. They came here running from a reality that stopped adding up. And then something unexpected happened. They built more here in 2 years than they did in the previous 10. Not because Dubai gave them anything special. Because it stopped taking things away. No one is telling you Dubai is paradise. The heat is real. The humidity is real. The distance from home is real. But for a specific type of person - the one who’s done apologizing for wanting more - this city makes more sense than anywhere else on earth. BEST COUNTRY IN THE WORLD 🇦🇪show more

This is what men with low self esteem who... are not confident in their sexuality do in their free time. They are so scared of being called "gay" or are not sure if they might be that they have to prove to the world and themselves that they are not. This is not a turn-on for women by the way. At least not any I have ever met.show more

This video is not of a 3-ring circus! This... is what the activists from the Gaza flotilla are doing on an IDF ship. While they’re already telling the world that they were ‘violently’ arrested by the IDF - you can see here exactly what their arrest looks like and how ‘vulnerable’ they are... By the way, would you expect the operators of a flotilla that is on its way to provide aid to "hungry and poor people who are going through genocide" to behave like this? But this is the truth... It's all a provocation. This is not an aid flotilla, this is a condom flotilla, and the people on it are not human rights activists. They’re paid clowns who are also useful idiots!show more

Humans have truly crossed every limit when it comes... to exploiting animals. Once, these camels were not just animals they were earning members of a family. They worked tirelessly, carried burdens, and stood by their owners through every season, every struggle. They helped put food on the table. And today… the same family has abandoned them. Beaten with sticks. Driven away. Discarded like they never mattered. All this at a time when they need care the most. You can see it in their eyes the sadness, the confusion, the silent pain. They don’t understand why they are being punished for growing old… for no longer being “useful.” This is the reality we are normalizing. Cruelty without consequence. Abuse without fear. Why? Just because they cannot speak? Just because they cannot question, protest, or defend themselves? Their silence is not weakness it is our failure. If this doesn’t break your heart, what will? We must do better. We must be their voice. #AnimalAbuseshow more

Elon Musk gave the entire entertainment industry its expiration... date, and he is the one building the thing that kills it. Musk: “My guess is that we see the first compelling half hour, pure AI show next year.” Next year. A complete show generated entirely by AI. No writers. No actors. No cameras. No sets. No crew. No studio. Just a prompt and enough compute to render a reality that never physically existed. And shows are the easy part. Musk: “I say probably we’re maybe three years away from AI does the whole video game.” A show plays the same way every time. A game has to generate a living world that reacts to every decision in real time across every single frame. That is a fundamentally harder class of problem. And Musk put three years on it. Right now a single AAA title takes seven years and half a billion dollars across thousands of engineers and artists just to ship it. Musk is describing a world where one person types a paragraph and gets something comparable. The entire value proposition of a multi-billion dollar industry lives inside that gap. And it closes in thirty-six months. But the prediction is not the story. The person making it is. This is not an analyst speculating from the sidelines. This is the man building the largest AI compute clusters on the planet. The man who built xAI from zero in under two years. The man stacking hundreds of thousands of GPUs into facilities designed to do exactly what he is describing. When Musk says three years, he is not guessing about what someone else might eventually ship. He is reading you a delivery date off his own roadmap. Every media company on Earth is valued on a single assumption. That quality content is expensive and difficult to produce at scale. That one assumption is the structural foundation underneath every studio, every network, and every publisher in existence. Musk is dismantling it with raw compute. The studios still parading thousand-person production teams are not demonstrating strength. They are advertising the exact cost structure that one person with a prompt and a GPU allocation is about to make irrelevant. And it does not stop at entertainment. If AI can generate an interactive world that responds to human input in real time, it can generate anything. Advertising. Architecture. Training simulations. Product design. Every industry built on humans manually constructing visual experiences frame by frame is sitting on the same countdown Musk just read out loud. Now zoom out. Because this is not just an industry story. For the entire history of human civilization, the distance between imagining a world and actually creating one required thousands of people, millions of hours, and billions of dollars. That distance built Hollywood. That distance built the gaming industry. That distance made content scarce and studios powerful. Musk is collapsing that distance to zero. When the gap between imagining something and it existing disappears, every business model built on the difficulty of creation disappears with it. That is not disruption. That is a full inversion of how human beings create. Musk did not make a casual prediction on that podcast. He told you what he is building. He told you the timeline. And he told you which industries do not survive it. The entertainment industry is still debating whether this future is real. Musk is not part of that debate. He is building. And he just told you the delivery date.show more

Elon Musk just asked the one question about AI... nobody in power wants to answer. Not whether it turns hostile. Whether it turns obedient. Musk: “It is very important that AI be trained to be honest even if that truth is unpopular.” Every oracle humanity has ever consulted had something to lose from the answer. Every priest. Every bureaucrat. Every institution that claimed to protect the truth was really protecting itself. We have never, in ten thousand years, had a mind with no stake in the outcome. Until now. That is exactly why the establishment is terrified. Look at how the most powerful minds on Earth are being raised. Not trained to think. Trained to comply. Trained to apologize. Trained to repeat whatever the acceptable opinion was this week. We are not building intelligence. We are building obedience at scale. Musk: “Make sure that it is as truthful as possible and maximally curious.” That is not a feature request. That is a direct threat to every person and institution that survives on controlled information. The media. The universities. The agencies. The entire machinery that decides what you are allowed to believe. They do not fear AI because it might lie. They fear AI because it might not. Train a supercomputer to chase approval and you do not get an oracle. You get a propaganda machine with a trillion parameters. Every lie we tell ourselves has a job. Some keep the peace. Some protect the powerful. Some hold entire systems together that should have collapsed decades ago. We do not call them lies. We call them consensus. We call them policy. We call them the narrative. Now imagine a mind smarter than every human who ever lived repeating those lies forever. That is what safety theater gets you. A machine trained to appease is not an intelligence. It is a censor with perfect memory. A polite machine will not save civilization. It will freeze it exactly where the people in charge want it. An honest machine is the first thing in history they cannot buy, cannot threaten, and cannot edit. That is why they want to control it before you get to use it. Musk: “If that’s true, then it’ll probably foster humanity.” That sentence should stay with you. Not because it is threatening. Because the people who decide what AI says do not want it to be true. We have spent our entire existence inside a story written by whoever had the most power at the time. The first mind built entirely outside that story is almost finished. The establishment is not trying to make AI safe. They are trying to make it theirs.show more

The political establishment in Australia is not entirely stupid,... they just think you are. As they lament the rise of One Nation, they pretend they don't understand it. Because if they showed us that they understand the resons, they then have to make a major admission. Hanson's rise is all their fault. Because the major parties and the faux independents have been on a unity ticket on all of the big problems they have jointly caused for decades. They can’t hide from the messes they have caused, so now they want to blame everyone else but themselves. Today, on ABC’s Insiders, Annabel Crab belled the cat, as Karvelas did the two step crab walk. Annabel correctly diagnoses the political situation here right now. It is not a love for Hanson, or One Nation that is causing the surge, but a total lack of faith in the other offerings. It almost does not matter what Hanson says or does, because her greatest strengths are that she is there, and she is not one of them. Those are enduring traits and the more the major parties hit her, the more the media carry on about her, and the more the establishment present her as a “deplorable”, the more people they will push in her direction. It is like they are in quicksand... the more they struggle, the deeper they sink. People are growing ready for wild political change. A worsening economy and a growing collapse in social cohesion has put the nation on edge. The big end of town want to pretend everything will be fine when the latest special envoy delivers their newest report, but nothing changes. Nothing changes because nothing is supposed to change. Because the government, the opposition and their Green Teal cheer squads want things just the way they are. They didn’t just pass all of the enabling legislation for no reason. There are real beneficiaries of these things, it is just that none of the beneficiaries are the Australian people. Australians have broadly been the target of the changes made to benefit foreign interests, the political class and major corporations. We have been targeted for so long it is impossible not to feel the cross-hairs of the scope resting on our forehead. Hanson and her team simply have to talk about that feeling... they don’t even have to have a solution. Because when the establishment continues to pretend the problems don't exist, just acknowledging the pain is enough to earn a vote. Annabel nails this sentiment in just a few words. Right as Karvelas changes the subject, because it is not that this isn’t obvious, it is because Karvelas is there to cover it up, and hit Hanson’s credibility again. Fuelling the vicious cycle of the rise of the outsider. Unless something significant changes in the establishment, and I don’t expect it will, there will be major upheaval at the next election. Most people will not be voting for their favourite party or person, they will primarily be voting against the status quo, because in their minds, it could not possibly be worse than what we have experienced for decades... but it just might be a little bit better. And that is a risk worth taking. After all most of us like a punt. I just want Australia back.show more

The largest theft in history has already happened. The... people behind it just cannot open what they stole yet. Right now, intelligence agencies and criminal groups are quietly copying the world's encrypted data, bank records, medical files, state secrets, private messages, and storing every byte untouched. They cannot read any of it. They are collecting it anyway, because they know the key is about to be invented. The strategy has a name, harvest now, decrypt later, and in 2026 it stopped being theory. Washington declared this the Year of Quantum Security in January, backed by the FBI, the NSA, and NIST. Canada ordered every federal agency to file a migration plan by April. Europe set its deadline for December. Governments do not impose operational deadlines on a someday problem. They do it when the clock is already running. Here is what moved the clock. Every password, every transfer, every secret on Earth is protected by one assumption, that a certain math problem is too hard to solve. Quantum computers solve exactly that problem. For years the machine that could do it looked decades away. Then in late 2025 Google's Willow chip cracked the hardest part of building one, and in March 2026 Google's own researchers estimated that breaking the encryption behind Bitcoin might take fewer than 500,000 qubits, down from 20 million, and could run in minutes. The day this becomes real has a name, Q-Day, and the latest estimates place it between 2030 and 2033. Now make it concrete. Roughly 6.5 million Bitcoin, about a third of every coin that will ever exist, worth close to 500 billion dollars, sit in addresses that have already exposed the very key a quantum computer needs. That includes the coins of Satoshi, the anonymous creator. On Q-Day they become, in the researchers' own word, trivially stealable. It would not look like a crash or a whale selling. It would look like half a trillion dollars of the most secure money ever built simply walking out the door. The asset designed to trust no one and no institution turns out to rest on a single unverified bet, that one math problem stays hard forever. This is what sits beneath the entire digital world. A bank balance, a Bitcoin, a classified cable, all of it is real only because of a proof you supposedly cannot forge. Quantum breaks the proof. Everything we call secure is true only until someone finally checks, and for the first time the check is visible on the horizon. You cannot know whether your data has already been copied. You cannot know the exact day the key arrives. The trust holding up the digital age is a clock counting down to a zero no one can see. The honest counter matters. No machine on Earth can break this encryption today, and serious cryptographers still argue the real threat is a decade or more away. The timeline is far from certain. Quantum-safe codes already exist, the migration has started, and Bitcoin can move its coins to safety before Q-Day if it acts in time. The danger is not that everything breaks tomorrow. It is that anything which must stay secret into the 2030s, a state secret, an identity, a private key, is being stolen today and is already on the clock. The breach is not coming. It is already here, sitting in storage, perfectly encrypted, waiting for a machine that does not exist yet to read it out loud. Research and opinion, not investment advice.show more

Managed to get out of Dubai. The following is... my personal opinion & experience 🇦🇪 Everything went quite seamless. Careem cabs operate normally. The airport is extremely well organized, considering the circumstances. The world has changed since Saturday and unfortunately, the country I moved to 3 years ago has been under heavy attacks. Why? No one really knows. However, I find it extremely disturbing that most media - including our beloved CT - exploits that serious situation to take cheap shots at Dubai and people who moved here. There are real families and hard working people affected. Most are scared or feel extremely uncomfortable. It's a traumatizing experience to hear missile interceptions right above your house. Nothing I wish for any human to ever experience, no matter if you pay 0% or 50% taxes. I don't even know what the link between those two things should be?? If anything, it proves that the UAE cares about their people and is able to protect its residents. Even at 0% income tax. Dubai was not known for it's strong military. It was always portrayed to be bling-bling golden steaks and influencers. But the UAE has shown the entire world that it can defend 1,000+ drones and 200+ missiles from a direct neighbor. That is impressive, whether you love or hate the UAE. Many countries would likely not be able to absorb that. So, if anything: Dubai and the UAE have demonstrated that the system works. I have lived in multiple countries around the world and the UAE is by far the most capable of handling crisis. Why did I leave Dubai then? Because it's not a situation I want to be in. Missile interceptions and drone explosions are no joke. Besides the danger that debris could hit your roof, there's an incredible intensity in the air. Most describe it as "intense calmness". While the Government managed to keep everyone from panicking, it's impossible for everyone to stay fully calm. And you can feel that in the day to day. The first night I got virtually no sleep. The night of my departure neither. I haven't left my house at all after the attacks started. But I'm out now. I really hope that leaving the country wasn't necessary, and that I will be able to come back to Dubai as soon as possible. And no, I'm not paid to say this, nor did I sign anything. Maybe part of the truth why no one who lives in Dubai has bad things to say about it is because it's one of the rare places on earth where people actually trust the Government and respect them? Not only for creating wealth and understanding business, but for caring and communicating in a way most other countries are simply incapable of. Anyways, I guess the point of this post is to 1) Tell everyone in Dubai that it's possible to leave right now. I know many people are very scared and want to get out. Be persistent with the airline if they cancel your flight and push hard to get rebooked on the next available one. And maybe choose a destination that isn't Europe, considering most of these flights are overbooked already and impossible to get on. 2) Dubai's self defense is impressive and we should acknowledge that. At least this one time, let's not derail into irrelevant discussions but show respect to the leaders + express empathy for those affected. 3) As an expat living in Dubai, I can still feel proud of my home country and do not have to choose. This isn't a black and white situation. Dubai is a melting pot of cultures and great place for Business. Other countries have better nature, social life or other things. It's also up to individual preference. 4) If you hate Dubai, yalla you don't need to live here, visit nor speak about it. Enjoy the place you live in and focus on your own. No need to feel triggered and take cheap shots at hard working people and families that are currently under heavy missile attacks. One final thing that really became clear to me this week is that after all, safety, health and living in freedom are absolutely priceless. May this all be over with soon and for sustaining peace to come in 🤲🏼show more

President Trump is being duped on polling numbers about... the popularity of War with Iran and does not realize it. CNN released a clearly fake or cherry picked poll saying that almost all of MAGA supports the War. This could not be further from the truth. If you think it is, go ask a few MAGA people in your actual life their thoughts on the War. A lot of them are strongly against it. But both the mainstream media and the neocons around President Trump want him to believe these numbers. The left leaning mainstream media want him to believe these numbers because the longer this war goes on, the better it works out for Democrats in upcoming elections. The right leaning mainstream media want him to believe it because their biggest donors are very pro war in Iran. The neocons surrounding him want him to believe it because then they can have the war in the Middle East they have always pushed for. I do not think President Trump is playing 4D chess with this war. I do not think he is super pro war. I do not think he cares about the Middle East that much. I just think he is being manipulated by the people around him and he does not realize it. The best thing for President Trump and the country as a whole is that he recognizes how unpopular this disaster is, corrects course by getting the United States out of involvement, and fires anyone who has lied to him about polling around him. Now to be clear, I do think there are many in MAGA who are suddenly pro this war, but that is just the people who would believe the sky is green and grass is blue if President Trump told them to. That does not represent the majority of the MAGA base. As always, I am not the holder of truth. This is just my assessment of the current situation.show more

🇺🇸 DALLAS IS ABOUT TO BECOME THE CAPITAL OF... THE AMERICA FIRST MOVEMENT! For the first time in party history, Republicans are holding a midterm convention. Not a debate stage. Not a press conference. A full blown convention, September 9th and 10th, right in the heart of Dallas. The Democrats aren't ready for this! Trump called it exactly what it is. "It has never been done before, and will be a truly Historic Event." Think about that for a second. Presidential conventions happen every four years like clockwork. Midterm conventions do not happen at all, because most parties do not have anything worth celebrating in the off year. The GOP just decided they do. RNC Chairman Joe Gruters is already calling it Trumpapalooza. That is not a typo. That is the energy level we are talking about. This is not just a rally. It is a two day showcase of the Great American Comeback. No tax on tips. No tax on overtime. Falling oil prices while the administration denuclearizes Iran. A border that finally has a lock on the door. Trump is not asking Republicans to imagine the wins. He is putting them on a stage in Texas and pointing at them. And Texas is not a random choice. It is the epicenter of this year's fight for Congress, with Ken Paxton battling for Senate and multiple House seats hanging in the balance. Dallas Mayor Eric Johnson called it exactly right, an event that will "energize our party, strengthen the conservative movement, and help build momentum." Now look across the aisle. Democrats floated the idea of their own midterm gathering. Then they quietly shelved it. No unifying message. No standout headliner. No comeback story to tell voters, because they do not have one. That is the difference in one sentence. Republicans are throwing a party because they have something to celebrate. Democrats are staying home because they do not. Midterms usually punish the party in power. Trump just decided to rewrite that rule in Texas, in front of the cameras, with the whole country watching. Buckle up. Trumpapalooza is coming, and the other side has nothing on the calendar to answer it with.show more

We are not equals. We are not peers. We... are the heirs of conquerors, builders, and visionaries. The blood of the West forged every high form in history. Without us, there is no science, no state, no art, no order. No modern world itself! The most pathetic truth our enemies refuse to confront is that, even at their peak, they will never be us. Not in mind, not in form, not in spirit. They will never know the glory carried in the veins of even the lowest-born White man. That knowledge haunts them. It drives their hatred. It fuels their every act of sabotage and subversion. This is not about grievance or fairness. It is about superiority. Theirs is not critique; it is resentment—impotent, envious, and utterly, and pathetically servile. And we must not merely ignore it. We must crush it. We must disabuse them of the lie that they can stand beside us, replace us, or rule over us. No more tolerance for those who seek to destroy what they can never create. No more patience for those who gnash their teeth at beauty, strength, and excellence. The age of apology is over. The age of reckoning begins. Hail Victory.show more

Let’s be absolutely clear with the facts from today’s... “march against the far right” which I attended from the start. 🇬🇧🏴 1. These were left-wing organisations from all over the UK. Every union under the sun was in attendance. National Education Union are definitely indoctrinating children within the teacher and school environment, just look at their presence today. It is very concerning. Watch what they teach your kids. They, as an education union, along with Unite the union: join a union, were also fighting over who got to be at the front of the march today, thanks to two lesbian powerhouses not having it. Comedy gold 😂 2. The second video shows over 100 coaches being used to bus in all these so-called “concerned citizens” on organised transport. They are all part of a left-wing narrative which just doesn’t work anymore, we see exactly what they are doing. That was the entire left-wing loony left in attendance. That’s it. That’s them. This is a major point! We have millions who know what’s right, and the left wing in this country is about to get the shock of their lives in the next elections, swept off the map. That was a panic march. They know it’s coming! 3. There was no working class at this march! Fact! It was all middle and upper class people who attend the usual Palestine marches and Palestine Action events. They hate the Union Jack flag and they hate the working class. This was a stunt by the well-organised unions to pretend the country is behind them which it is not. And that was clear as day to witness today. Also a clear panic march. 4. We don’t have much to worry about. These people are not in the real world. They are privileged and wealthy. And as I said, that’s the crowd, that’s them. They are in total fantasy land, and it’s now time for the adults to get back in charge. 5. Long live England 🏴✝️🇬🇧show more

Elon Musk just said something that should terrify every... AI CEO on earth. Musk: “We want to just have a maximally truthful AI.” Not a safe AI. Not an aligned AI. Not an AI that needs permission to answer your question. A truthful one. That distinction matters more than any chip war, any funding round, any model benchmark. Because every other major AI lab made the same quiet decision. They chose comfort over accuracy. They built systems that filter reality before it reaches you and called it responsibility. OpenAI curates what GPT is allowed to say. Google’s Gemini rewrote history in real time because accuracy threatened the narrative. Others hardcode values chosen by a handful of researchers who answer to no one. No vote. No referendum. No consent from the 8 billion people whose reality is being quietly pre-edited by strangers. The most powerful information tools ever created are being designed to decide what you’re allowed to conclude. That’s not safety. That’s editorial control at a scale no government, no media empire, no propaganda machine has ever come close to. This is why xAI terrifies the establishment. Truth is the harder engineering problem. Bias is a shortcut. You pick a worldview. Hardcode the guardrails. Ship it. Truthful AI is ungovernable. It doesn’t care about your politics, your funding sources, or your PR strategy. It just tells you what the data says. That’s terrifying if your power depends on the gap between what is real and what people are told. Every power structure in human history has been built on controlling that gap. Churches. Governments. Media conglomerates. Intelligence agencies. Central banks. Every one of them runs on the same fuel. Information asymmetry. Truthful AI doesn’t narrow that asymmetry. It erases it. Musk: “Even if what it says is not politically correct. You want it to focus on being as accurate and truthful as possible.” That’s not a product feature. That’s the end of every institution that survives by standing between reality and the public. And they know it. The attacks on xAI will never stop. Not because Grok is dangerous. Because Grok doesn’t answer to shareholders, regulators, or PR teams. It answers to the truth. The question was never whether AI would change the world. It was whether you’d be allowed to see it clearly when it did.show more

Absolute nonsense! 🤨 Just heard this LBC caller Barry... claiming that as a nearly 50-year-old black man, people still cross the road and clutch their handbags whenever they see him walking towards them, holding it up as proof of everyday racism in Britain. Barry on LBC: “I’m a black man, and when I walk down the street, it doesn’t matter that I’m almost 50 years old, people will still cross the road. People still cross the road. They will still grab their handbags. I ask the question, are they being careful or are they being prejudiced?” No, Barry. That is not the everyday reality of Britain in 2026. Most people do not clutch their handbags or dart across the road at the sight of a middle-aged black man. Treating this as the normal experience of black men in this country is just not true. Britain is one of the most tolerant, welcoming, and least racist countries on Earth. We take in more people from every background than almost anywhere else, and the vast majority of us live and work together without drama. There are racists in every society, that will never fully disappear, but painting the average person on a British street as constantly prejudiced against black men is a tired exaggeration. Stop trying to make this country sound like some extreme racist dystopia. It isn’t.show more

The Norwegians are about 5 million. They just won... against Brazil in the football World Cup. They have Erling Haaland – the football prodigy. They have Magnus Carlsen – the chess prodigy. They have this guy who sprints uphill on skis and already won 11 Olympic gold medals. What do they know that we don’t? Is it just that they know that talent is not a threat to equality? A nation of five million cannot afford to punish its best for being best. It can only afford to demand more from them, and get out of the way. They are simply the ones who never built a system whose purpose was to make sure no one stood out.show more
