Advertising is not a reflection of society, it is the script by which society is manufactured.

Larry GarfieldI may regret this at some point, but I felt the need to put down in writing how I feel about this moment in the tech industry.
It is not kind. You may well be insulted by it. If you are... then you really should question yourself.
Artificial Intelligence and machine learning, created by narcissists, is going to be narcissistic.

The right is wrong. Humans are not naturally self interested. Competition is detrimental to human societies.
If you’re going to engage with anything like that you need to operate under the assumption that there are various flavors of ops in there, badged and unbadged. You have to assume that one day they will be screenshotted and shared, maybe posted on a far right grifter trolls stupid ass Twitter, and even read aloud in a courtroom- perhaps at your own trial.
Please be safe. The stakes are high. Build community and connect with people but stay safe and vigilant. Things like this need to be treated as a public forum. Because they are. Create a signal username and stop using your number. Don’t make your pfp an actual photo of you and definitely don’t use your gov name or a name people recognize as being you.
Atlanta Antifascists 
A Tennessee mainstream news piece went out yesterday covering Patriot Front and including detailed aerial photographs of their compound in the east of the state.
While we're glad that this information is reaching a wide audience, and overall Phil Williams has done fantastic work covering the far right, we'd also like to note that our group is the one that originally exposed Ian Michael Elliott in 2021 and also first discovered and published the location and ownership of the compound in 2024.
We're not mentioning our original pieces because we're in it for the credit, but because it's better for everyone when news sources cite original antifascist grassroots research. The more exposure our pieces get, the more likely it is we get tips on white supremacist activity.

the collapse in post-WWII consensus against fascism, post 1960s consensus against open sexism and racism—all represented by Trump—are not separate from the collapse of refusal of open genocide and war crimes —shown in Gaza.
It's time to gather for revolution. America isn't coming back from this.

In addition to compiling personal information — such as the Social Security numbers and addresses of those whose posts are flagged — the contractor will also provide ICE with a 'photograph, partial legal name, partial date of birth, possible city, possible work affiliations, possible school or university affiliation, and any identified possible family members or associates.'"
