It's true, and I make no effort to hide the fact. Through the first half of the 2010s, I was involved, at least peripherally, in the New Atheism movement.

“israel could solve its p.r. problem by simply ceasing to be evil”, a must-read by caitlin johnstone
Caitlin Johnstone Israel’s +972 Magazine reports that the Israeli military establishment has launched a training program designed to “influence public consciousness” around the world, with courses aimed at training hundreds of operatives per year in strategies for “actively disrupting or manipulating the beliefs, attitudes, and behaviors of target audiences.” … read the full article here: […]
A new Estonian study has found that many AI systems can still be driven by propaganda-style requests, with results varying widely depending on the model and the host, writes ERR News. As part of a broader study on the reliability of large language models (LLMs) in the Estonian context, researchers at the Estonian Language Institute […]

O perfil da embaixada do Irã na Tunísia no X postou nesta segunda-feira (1º) uma animação feita com Inteligência Artificial em que se vê uma luta entre a estátua do Cristo Redentor, principal cartão postal do Rio de Janeiro e do Brasil, contra a estátua da Liberdade, símbolo dos Estados Unidos. É uma óbvia alusão […]

The government’s attempt to prosecute resistance to the president’s mass deportations mission has been destructive, absurd, often contradicted by the evidence offered, and conspicuously unbound by law. The White House has also lost an uncharacteristic number of these cases, including, most recently, one that originated when federal prosecutors sought to charge a group of demonstrators for…
What’s left of CBS News recently landed an interview with Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu. It’s a bit of a doozy (transcript, video). There’s a part where Netanyahu tries to blame foreign social media bot farms for the rise in people disgusted by his government’s carpet bombing of children. There’s a part where he pretends […]
O presidente Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva defendeu nesta quinta-feira (14) medidas para restringir o uso de inteligência artificial durante o período das eleições. Durante o lançamento de unidades habitacionais do programa Minha Casa, Minha Vida em Camaçarí (BA), ele avaliou que a manipulação de imagens e vozes, por exemplo, pode favorecer “mentirosos”. “Eu estava na […]

Hétfőn tartották az új miniszterjelöltek parlamenti bizottsági meghallgatását, ahol az oktatási és gyermekügyi tárca élére jelölt Lannert Judit is bemutatta elképzeléseit az oktatás jövőjéről. A meghallgatáson szóba került az úgynevezett „LMBTQ-propaganda” kérdése is, amelyre a miniszterjelölt egyértelmű választ adott: szerinte nem ez az, amivel ma a magyar oktatásnak foglalkoznia kellene. A…
In a triumphal move back toward democratic rule, Hungary's new leader Péter Magyar took his oath of office Saturday in a "regime-change" ceremony rich with symbolism before thousands of jubilant constituents. The sense of a hopeful new political era resonated in Magyar's tribute to a victory for "ordinary, flesh-and-blood people" - and in the gleeful moves and air guitar of unstoppable…
Στον πρόσφατο πόλεμο που κήρυξαν ΗΠΑ και Ισραήλ στο Ιράν, ήταν και πάλι αμέριστη η στήριξη των δυτικών αφεντικών των ΜΜΕ στα γεράκια του πολέμου που βρίσκονται στις δύο όχθες του Ατλαντικού ωκεανού. Οι σκοπιμότητες, σε συνδυασμό με την άκρατη παραπληροφόρηση στα μέσα κοινωνικής δικτύωσης από «βαλτούς» λογαριασμούς και τεχνητή νοημοσύνη συνθέτουν ένα περιβάλλον στο …

Good news if you really enjoy corporatism, autocracy, propaganda and a violently misinformed electorate! The U.S. has fallen to sixty-fourth place (now below Ukraine) in the annual Reporters Without Borders (RSF) World Press Freedom Index. As corrupt, oligarch-coddled authoritarians the world over continue to enjoy their moment in the sun, journalism (aka the “enemy of […]
FCC boss Brendan Carr has spent much of the last five years on cable TV whining incessantly about foreign entanglement with U.S. companies. Even companies he doesn’t regulate. He was positively apoplectic about China’s ownership of TikTok, which you may recall they “fixed” by offloading the social media company to Trump’s billionaire friends (while curiously […]

Pakistan has rejected India’s “baseless” allegations linking it to the Pahalgam incident, urging New Delhi to exhibit responsible conduct instead of weaponising false narratives for domestic political gains, amid an ongoing regional crisis. India marked the Pahalgam attack’s anniversary a day ago, during which it again blamed the neighbouring country for orchestrating the attack last […]
WASHINGTON: Pakistan on Thursday urged the United Nations Security Council (UNSC) to take up the dispute over the Indus Waters Treaty (IWT), warning that India’s continued unilateral suspension of the treaty carries “grave peace and security, and humanitarian consequences” for South Asia.

Ci chiediamo che gusto si provi a dare spazio a chi veicola sistematicamente i contenuti e le narrative della propaganda di uno Stato che ha invaso un Paese sovrano
El adjetivo “histórico” no es en absoluto exagerado para calificar las elecciones celebradas en Hungría el domingo 12 de abril. Desde las primeras elecciones libres de 1990, nunca se había registrado una participación tan alta en unas elecciones legislativas en el país. La derrota de Viktor Orbán es la del primer ministro en el cargo más veterano de la Unión Europea (UE), que ha gobernado su…

Last month FCC boss Brendan Carr illegally ignored remaining U.S. media consolidation laws to rubber stamp Nexstar’s $6.2 billion purchase of Tegna. It’s part of the generational Republican quest to steadily consolidate media, then replace whatever journalism remains with a soggy mish mash of lazy infotainment and right wing propaganda (see: Sinclair Broadcasting). But there’s […]
