Mozilla rolled out a machine learning chatbot and a new auto-on form of surveillance capitalism tracking this year and they have the audacity to buy ads around the city about how they "don't know" their users.

Today it is not just controversial to be anti-Assad in so many so-called 'pro-Palestine' circles online, but actual Palestinian-Syrians whose entire history is being tortured, murdered and exiled by both Israel and Assad are completely erased because their very existence is inconvenient to dumbass campist/tankie politics. It's now the norm.

It's been a decade since I start pointing out that the very vocal, online, anglophone 'Left' has a reactionary problem. Dictators from Assad to Putin are romanticized and even supported. Entire movements and revolutions are dismissed as some kind of CIA plot. The only people allowed to have any political agency are Westerners, and this includes non-Westeners who exclusively center the West in any analysis. There is nothing remotely revolutionary about this ideology.
