We live in a fascist nation - what now?

Aug. 13, 2025

In 1933, German conservatives thought they could control Hitler. Two years later, they were being executed in their own homes.

Big tech companies continue to spend massive amounts of money building ever more powerful generative AI (artificial intelligence) systems and ever larger data centers to run them, all the while losing billions of dollars with no likely pathway to profitability.
