Descripción

Exactly as predicted, Meta’s smart glasses are drifting toward something far more useful to corporations than sunglasses with a camera: a wearable surveillance network. Reports now show facial data collection features being enabled across devices, turning everyday users into walking data collectors whether they realize it or not. None of this should surprise anyone. Americans have been slowly surrounded by this infrastructure for years. Flock Safety cameras track license plates across cities. Ring doorbells build neighborhood surveillance grids. Alexa speakers sit quietly in living rooms listening for commands while collecting behavioral data. Meta’s glasses just take the next logical step and put the cameras directly on your face. Mass surviellance with walking legs. As always, you guys are the only sponsors I have.

America: Israel's Useful Idiot

There’s a reason the United States continues underwriting Israel with billions in military aid every year. Israel’s “Samson Option” doctrine, the idea (documented by analysts like Seymour Hersh) that Israel would use its nuclear arsenal as a last-resort deterrent if facing existential collapse. Once foreign policy becomes structurally locked in through lobbying, weapons contracts, intelligence sharing, and geopolitical doctrine, walking away stops being simple. It becomes unthinkable within the system itself. Do NOT underestimate the levels they would go to protect their colonial empire. As always, you guys are the only sponsors I have.
