They're letting these files build lore to create more conspiracy theories that you can't trust anything. The real aim has always been to make people doubt facts so they're easy to control. Don't read up on the illuminati, just read an actual history book.

A Guardian Australia site story excerpt about fake publishers scamming authors, so far known to be trading under the names Melbourne Book Publisher, First Page Press, Aussie Book Publisher, Oz Book Publishers and bookpublishers.co.nz. Steer clear and be alert, friends.

Be careful out there. AI-using bastards are scamming #authors, pretending to be #publishers. And hey, @australia.theguardian.com great story but please retire the term 'vanity publishing'. Independent & self-publishing or can be totally legit & doesn't deserve a sneery-snobby nickname.

Your friendly reminder that if you have never spoken up about anything and feel the need to, NOW is the perfect time to do so. Don’t be afraid. There are more of us than them. Our voices are louder and need you now more than ever.

In any other country, if federal agents fired upon journalists when unprovoked β€” what would we call it?

If federal agents marched down streets demanding papers β€” what would we say?

Authoritarianism β€” let’s not pretend it’s something else when it happens in our American cities.

I am sick of people invoking 'freedom' as an argument against any rule they don't like. It's lazy and typically hypocritical when others freedoms are affected. Freedom has become a synonym for individualism and selfishness and an antonym to 'community' and 'responsibility'.

The worst part is not the trump nonsense, but the amount of people genuinely celebrating the pain and suffering of others. The downfall of society is the "haha those people got what's coming for them" and the "must be God's will" crowd.

The deployment of federalized National Guard troops to California, without consent from local or state officials, is deeply troubling. These are tactics seen in authoritarian regimes, not in America. We want to be clear, the military should not be used to police civilians.
