Every now and then someone brings up #EffectiveAltruism, #TESCREAL, #RokosBasilisk, #Rationalism, or some other #Musk related nonsense. I ridicule it, or laugh, and move on. The whole evil god of Roko's Basilisk is so silly it doesn't feel worth writing about. But people started a whole cult over it and killed a bunch of people.
Since then I've been meaning to actually spend time tearing it down. So I think it's time to go kill a god. Fortunately it involves making fun of Elon Musk specifically and all the #AI-pilled #TechBros more generally, so that's nice I guess.
Also, I make the argument that we're all in a simulation that only exists to torture Elon Musk.
On the second day of a trial pitting the Tesla founder against OpenAI, Elon Musk said he was a “fool” to support the company behind ChatGPT during its early years.
#techbros are a malthusian death cult. instead of letting go of their billions to end poverty, they want to exterminate most of us because we are an “overpopulation” problem.
no, it doesn't make sense for these people to accelerate the #GlobalWarming environmental collapse scientists been warning for decades. it will affect them too.
Greenhouse gases from data center boom could outpace entire nations Plants from OpenAI, Meta, xAI, and Microsoft could emit more than 129M tons annually. arstechnica.com/ai/2026/04/gre…
Let’s put this #Palantir #NHS issue a different way:

and they hired a Mosley, the grandson of the leader of the fascist party, to manage said NHS business
WHY ENTRUST #UK HEALTH CARE TO PEOPLE WHO WANT TO KILL YOU?
Watching ministers talk about NHS data strategy is like watching someone confidently rewire a house with no understanding of electricity. The language sounds polished, the reassurances are endless, but the substance just isn’t there.
❝ The Open Document Format (ODF) will become the only permitted standard for all government documents, with data stored in national or European structures. ❞
this is the beginning of the end of the #Microslop public gravy train. getting off Microsoft and all gringo servers will be the real kicker.
🎉 Germany goes ODF!
As part of the Deutschland-Stack and a push for digital sovereignty, the country is phasing out Microsoft’s proprietary formats in public administration.
Tom Steyer is running as a democrat in California to sabotage the other Democratic Party candidates, especially Katie Porter.
she would veto this legislation.
DO NOT TRUST THE DEMOCRATIC PARTY ESTABLISHMENT.
the #California primaries are a referendum on #billionaires #techbros and ultimately, the kind of corporatist #fascism that passes for centrism in this country.
BILLIONAIRES ARE THE ENEMY. don't let Steyer hand California to the fascists.
Compared to other 3D printer laws proposed this year, California’s is the most troubling. It criminalizes open source, reduces consumer choice, and creates a new bureaucratic burden. eff.org/deeplinks/2026/04/dang… #opensource #3dprinting #AB2047
