Ok, genuinely, tech journalists need to investigate why so much money is being laundered into Omarchy. A bunch of slopware from a white supremacist does not deserve $18 million when real Linux projects have gone unfunded for years. There has to be something else going on here.
@stevestreza Herd behaviour. FOMO. Utter stupidity.
@stevestreza I despair at what it will take to finally get people to acknowledge that white supremacy is a VERY COMMON THING for white people to genuinely like.
Which pretty handily explains why it keeps getting funded.
@stevestreza What do you people think money laundering is
@stevestreza definitely, 100% more going on. Data harvesting and ads will likely be a big part of it.
@stevestreza in their press release they emphasize agentic AI. So basically they want to be in on the ground floor of "The Linux for AI". FOMO meets fascism. The participation of the author of OpenClaw is noteworthy in this respect.
Just as Russian oligarchs laundered their looted national treasury via real estate, with the full cooperation of the West's financial services....
... petrostate despots & oil oligarchs are laundering their looted PIF's and national treasuries via Silicon Valley, again with the full cooperation of the West's financial services.
