This is so strong and clear.
You can't help but notice that if this was in the UK context - you wouldn't be able to get a single one of these sentences out without a journalist barracking the person saying it constantly.
The UK media is in quite a state.
I've been in politics for a quarter century. It's hard to express how staggering it is to see a conversation like this on corporate US media. The Morning Joe panel gobsmacked by the directness of @AbdulElSayed's points.

Our case was interrupted over 100 times. The government was not interrupted once.
I didn't hold high hopes for the British 'justice' system, but I did expect to at least have our case heard.
No matter what, we will keep fighting for actual justice to prevail.

The fascinating thing about Effective Altruism guys is that they have created an entire cult around the idea of maximising the effectiveness of good deeds and they are perhaps the worst people in the world at judging this.

The excerpt is from Dario Amodei's 2010 GiveWell guest post as a Princeton physics grad student; he donated the $10k to VillageReach (child vaccines) and described the critical analysis as emotionally taxing.

So odd how we're not calling years of below-inflation pay rises "quiet paycutting"

The Labour Government are arming a genocide.
And arresting those who do their moral duty to protest it.
Even when they eventually reverse it - it should be a huge shame and stain on them forever.
"You didn't join the police force to do this, did you?"
On the eve of the Supreme Court hearing on the Palestine Action ban, a 94-year-old barrister tells @ShehabKhan why she got arrested, and the words that made her arresting officer cry.

Labour just delivered the least eco-friendly budget in decades by approving new oil and gas fields while slashing billions from incentive schemes to install solar panels, heat pumps, and insulation.
They're also promising huge welfare cuts for the poorest people in this country.

The guys who did this in the UK got Lordships and are regularly invited on TV to talk about arresting their political enemies.

interesting theory, theres actually a whole book about this if you want to read more on it, read "Dune" by Frank Herbert
One of the coolest theories I’ve come across is that Paul Atreides was never truly the Kwisatz Haderach the Bene Gesserit intended—he was a rogue variant who forced the path open too early, and the real one (or the one who could have walked the Golden Path without becoming a tyrant) was always meant to emerge much later. The idea is that his prescience locked the universe into a narrower, more violent timeline, which is why Leto II had to take the extreme measures he did to force humanity off that track.
It also ties into the theory that the sandworms themselves are a kind of living archive of ancestral memory—each worm carrying fragments of the consciousness of every Fremen and every previous God Emperor who was absorbed into the spice cycle. So when someone takes the Water of Life, they’re not just accessing their own genetic memory; they’re briefly plugging into a planetary-scale consciousness that has been evolving for millennia. Makes the whole ecosystem feel even more alien and deliberate.

1. Key advisers in Burnham's Labour indicate continuity with the Mandelson, McSweeney and Starmer direction.
Also an eye-watering number of links with lobbyists and big corporations with vested interests, such a private water, private health and big tech.

It’s funny that Labour launched a coup against their leader, who was also prime minister, and no one talked about a civil war isnt it.

There need to be some very serious questions asked about this @andyburnham very few people in the UK tech industry would think this sort of spend on a CRM is justifiable. If it does need to be spent then the money should be going to the UK SME sector, which is more than capable of delivering on this.
However it won't do, it'll be spent on Salesforce and no doubt one of the major consulting firms that take all the HMG work, they will fail to deliver a working system and the bill will double or triple. I absolutely guarantee it.
