Meanwhile, we have two members of Mark Zuckerberg’s legal team sitting in court wearing facial recognition capable glasses.
It’s easier to target the jury that way
Excuseme, wath teh ufck ?
Used his free speech a little bit too long
If we can’t exercise our first amendment, maybe it’s time to exercise our 2nd?
He exceeded his quota of free tokens
Ahh so that’s what they mean by “free speech”. It’s like a drink token at a wedding.
So you get one free speech, but if you want more speech you’ve gotta buy it, and probably have to pay a gratuity on top.
At a premium rate, I’m sure…getting a speech at a wedding is gonna be a bit more expensive than getting a speech at the dive bar. And it’s not like you can just go and give a speech at another wedding. Then you’d just be crazy. Bursting into some random wedding and giving a speech. Without even a token.
I meant tokens as the units of text you pay for when you purchase a subscription to ChatGPT or one of the other AI models. Most AI companies offer you limited access for free to their most powerful models but you have to pay if you “speak too long” with the AI and exceed your quota of tokens.
All those new data centers (like the one the arrested man was opposing) are meant to power these AI. companies. Not a great joke, but that’s what I was alluding to.
The only way to buy it is by appeasing the Epstein class

Talk too long in a public forum? Believe it or not, straight to jail.
A worse crime than anything in the Epstein files apparently
Oklahoma
Yeah, authoritarian red state shithole. I don’t even travel to/through such places when I can avoid it.
Gonna become fly-around states. Don’t even want to breathe their high-altitude air. Just smells like manure and mercury.
New dimension to “flyover states” unlocked
We’re all those people cheering that the man was arrested?!
The party of “small government” . I’m sure he’s on the maga cancel culture concentration camp list now…brought to you by palantir because f you
This data center they’re hysterically agitating to build is going to take part of someone’s yard, someone’s entire house and property, and it will be right by a neighborhood making it’s stupid noise. And a lot of people outside of the town will have to deal with $400 per month electric bills, and they just can’t afford it.
Maybe this is the (unfortunate) push that drives renewables.
Lol no these companies are now building their own fossil fuel plants. Mortgage the future is always the plan. I’ve been in the power industry for 15 years and only since AI have I been asked to work on fossil fuel construction projects rather than decommission projects
These are the same material limitations that has driven renewables for decades, the US has an ideological dedication to absorbing the consequences of sustaining fossil fuel use anyway. The US is a for-profit imperial power with an owning class who sees anyone and everyone beneath them as exploitable and disposable. People in the US have tolerated the fossil fuel industry making their lives worse consistently for decades. Those same people will always adjust to worse conditions if they have to, and that owning class knows it.
There is no breaking point, people have to choose to accept the consequences of resisting with the knowledge that these people will never stop unless forced to.
lets you know who paid the council
One of our local public transit advocates did nothing more than present at city council meetings. They ordered the security team to follow him everywhere in the building, to the bathroom, and his car.
Even basic challenges to the people in your government is all too often met with straight up oppression tactics. He got them to stop by going to the press with it. Nothing else worked except more public pressure.
These times are going to make The Onion irrelevant.
You’re only allowed to protest low-income housing in your local town you fucking idiot! God know’s that’s how democracy works dumby~
“Shut up, Poors.”
That YouTube video is wild. Approximately 20 seconds from being first notified that his time was up, officers had already come up to him. 20 seconds. He handed them his documents. He was done. There was no logical reason for the arrest.
Sure there was, they wanted to show their power.
The arrest was done to warn the other peasants
Link?
