I am physically revolted by the notion that out political class is swayed by #SnakeOilMerchants and their #GenAISlop propaganda and lobbying. The idea that our politicians could be in cohoots with those #TechBros pushing for massive #Datacentres (to do what? one wonders if anything but hoovering cash) on the pretext that Australia Might Loose Out — in a Race to Financial ruin. #LLM #GenAi ‘s claim to fame is its #FinancialBubble, #CrossInvestments and #EphemeralProfitsInTheNeverNever. The whole GenAI thing and its datacenters is a ponzie scheme that our political #trainedMonkeys are enabling with glee and scant regards for the society they are stewarding (in name only). Gosh this is upsetting.

Worse is the #Secrecy and total lack of #Clarity and #transparency from Govt Ministers down. Hail the brave whistleblowers come out, come out, and sink this stupid circus.

Dear Zeus, a day out of my box and I’m breathing fire from both nostrils in less than 10 minutes over this bit of reporting.

This Saturday (June 27th) at 1pm come join our protest march from the Vancouver Art Gallery to City Hall, and let our government know what we think about short-sighted tech developments.

This earth is worth infinitely more than a few dollars in the pockets of corporations

These data centres have become a proxy for the Tech Bros, that's why people come from far and wide to register their disgust at them
