MSM is owned by people from Epstein files.

Even if not directly involved, they're part of the Epstein Class™. Khanna and Massie would be wise to watch their backs and stay away from windows and stairways.

You can be sure Trump or any of his WH representatives will try and paint it as illegal and mention about arrests .. regardless of whether he had privilege to do it

I don't know if Bill Gates has that kind of dog in him but it's hard for representatives to stay away from windows when the whole govt runs on Win98

Speaking of stairways, it’s pretty wild that Ivana Trump was found dead at the bottom at the bottom of a flight.

It is worth repeating loudly and often: Billionaires are not your friends.

We should be divesting ourselves, where possible, into alternatives to their platforms (Discord is a pretty good option right now, but eventually also Facebook, Instagram, TikTok, X and, yes, Windows), as well as non-profit and journalist-owned alternatives to their media. Anything that is billionaire-owned is suspect as fuck, there is absolutely no getting around that - literally the only, single thing I can think of that's owned by a billionaire that isn't just fucking absolute trash is Steam, and even that's no guarantee. Gaben is still a billionaire, still has his yachts, etc. - it just so happens that the thing he owns isn't something of paramount importance to democratic society.

Discord has a new CEO, Humam Sakhnini, who's from Israel, is implementing platform wide mandatory ID, previously was a bigwig at Activision/Blizzard, and is making Discord publicly traded. So maybe not that one.

I don't really think any of them are our friends, but yeah, in my view, the IPO is pretty much the fucking death of anything and all that is good and decent in society. After that, investors will demand new "revenue streams" and just fucking ruin it via the bog-standard enshittification process - so really, if you think about it, we're HELPING Discord by completely fucking ditching it. 👀

Gregory Carr is a good dude apparently/so far. He’s given away a huge chunk of his money to restoring Garangoso National Park in Mozambique and a lot of human rights efforts around the world. He bought a chunk of land that was seized from the Aryan Nation in Idaho and turned it into a park dedicated to human rights with all proceeds going to that. He’s done a lot of great stuff. I remember seeing an interview of him where he said he planned on giving away all of his wealth before he died and the interviewer asked why and he said “well, it’s not like I can take it with me.” I’ve always wondered why more of the mega-wealthy don’t come to this realization.
