Funny how that works:
"The wealthy profit from public lands, and taxpayers pick up the tab"
"Roughly two-thirds of grazing on Bureau of Land Management land is controlled by just 10% of permit holders. "

Der Verband reicher #Erben - die sich gerne #Familienunternehmer nennen & deren Familien nicht selten vom #Nationalsozialismus profitierten - rudert nun nach scharfer #Kritik von geplanten Einladungen der #AfD zurück.
Da ich bis 2015 Rechtslibertäre in der #Hayek - Gesellschaft erlebte & wegen deren Verrat am #Liberalismus austrat, habe ich einen Rat: Traut solchen nicht. Für ihren #Profit würden sie #Demokratie & #Menschenwürde dem fossilen #Faschismus opfern. Erneut. https://www.t-online.de/nachrichten/deutschland/innenpolitik/id_101024206/nach-kritik-familienunternehmer-stoppen-oeffnungskurs-zur-afd.html

" #Socialdemocracy cannot serve as a true alternative to #capitalism. It appears attractive on the surface but is built upon deep contradictions that eventually collapse under their own weight.

At its core, #socialdemocracy seeks a balance between #capitalist #profit motives & #socialist calls for fair #wages, quality #public services & #ecological protection.

You're a non-profit, improving peoples lives and need outside #expertise?
Let's talk.
You're an underfunded government agency or #QUANGO trying to fill a contractor position but having trouble getting the attention the Facebooks and Googles of the world get?
Let's talk.
You're a one-person #business and just need to talk through a problem you're facing with an #engineer for an hour, so you can figure out if it's even a solvable #problem you could hire someone to work on?
Let's talk.
The above (well, except shitting on your head for money) are all things I've done. In general, if you're #helping #people rather than #hurting them for #profit, let's talk. Full-time? Part-time? Contract for just a few hours? You might be surprised.
Hell, I might be surprised. It's happened before.
Thanks for reading. Boosts or sharing with someone who might want my services appreciated.

A lot of things matter to me in choosing what I work on, and who I work for. Money is one. It isn't the only one. It isn't even the most important one. I have an in-my-head sliding scale I use - the better your work matches my #ethical framework, the less #lucre it takes to convince me to help you.
So if you're using "AI" to build #algorithmic pricing systems to sell to companies so they can #gouge people needing services in their most #desperate hour? I *might* entertain a rate of $1000 per hour to shit on your head. There isn't enough #money in the world to get me to help you build that stuff.
On the other hand, if you're a small #company, selling actual #goods or #services to #customers who want and need them, as opposed to building something #shiny to attract the rubes so you can sell your audience to the #advertising industry? And you need a techie person?
Let's talk.

A #reminder: #Disney did not reinstate Jimmy Kimmel because they care about the opinions of their viewership or because they are resistant to the US's late-stage #capitalist descent into #fascism. They reinstated him because of the #financial backlash. Don't start seeing Disney as a "good guy" suddenly just because they caved under #profit pressure.

And for #capital, the purpose of #production is not to meet #human needs, or to achieve #social progress, but to maximize & accumulate #profit. That is the overriding objective.

»Album nach Album - "Traditionshüter" – Rechtsextreme KI-Bands verpacken Hetze in Schlagerform:
Die KI-generierten Songs der fiktiven Bands kommen insbesondere auf Tiktok gut an«
Das von den Rechten jegliche Tools genutzt werden um ihre Propaganda zu verbreiten ist seit eh und je. Sobald es geht Präsens vorzutäuschen wird Technik verwendet, erst Radio, dann Web, nun KI und TikTok sieht dadurch nur Profit.
