  • jimmy dore lmao. imagine getting your politics from a shitty youtube "comedian".

    I see him as a comedian with populist opinions and rants.

    Feel free to post critical videos on the JD community; all are welcome.

    Don't forget to have higher standards for politicians than for comedians.

    The politicians (lackeys of oligarchs) are the ones with real power and influence to change our society for better or mostly for the worst.

    All is well, peace.

  • It's nothing personal against you, I just feel the need to comment whenever I hear his name because I feel played, because I used to follow his writing. I think he is a genuinely nasty piece of work and a henchman for oligarchs. Peace.

    Thanks for the chat and th information you provided!

  • Snowden exposed Palantir?

    You Americans really need some heroes. Snowden might have done some good, but as soon as things got hot he folded like a cheap lawn chair and openly supported russian genocidal imperialism.

    I hope Snowden and his family (his wife and kid) meet the same fate as they wish for Ukrainians in internment camps in the occupied territories.

    How did Snowden openly supported Russian genocidal imperialism?

    Snowden is often criticizing Russian government and has shown no signs of working for them. Him being in Russia is because he is hunted by USA. If anything russia is supporting snowden

    Snowden messaging is directly aligned with russian security services and their key propaganda narratives.

    Look at his messaging before the full scale invasion; until the invasion he was distributing russian propaganda about how "the invasion is not happening" and some world salad about NATO and BATO.

    He routinely promotes messaging supportive of russian imprialism and spreads known falsehoods.

    Snowden does not critize the russian government. Don't lie.

    What messaging, what are you talking about? He has been laying low for years. His latest interview was Jan31 and the only relevant thing is him denying working for Russia

    Do you have any articles to back up "folding like an lawn chair","routinely promoting messaging supportive of Russian imperialism","spreading falsehoods"

    Here is how you do it: Here is an article about Snowden criticizing Russian government. https://www.buzzfeednews.com/article/sheerafrenkel/is-edward-snowden-trying-to-get-vladimir-putins-attention

    So show us his "messaging" that is" directly aligned with russian security services and their key propaganda narratives". If he is promoting Russian propaganda you can find at least tweet that applies, right?

    I gave you a specific example. Do a search for his tweets before Feb 24 2022 regarding Ukraine. Note how he was parroting russian official channel claims that the full scale invasion is not happening and ridiculing US security services (that correctly predicted that it is happening). Now do a search for official russian statements on this issue for this period.

    You can do the searching yourself or feel free to assume that I am lying in order to discredit your little angel.

    Secondly do lookup on who he promotes and what kind of things they say about Ukraine. This includes individuals claiming that everyone in Ukraine are Nazis and that Russia invasion was justified by security concerns. Both messages are openly promoted but the russians.

    I stand corrected, there is an example of him criticizing the russian government. Then again, this almost from 10 years ago.

    I gave you examples from the last few years.

    You didn't give me a specific example, you made me look it up. And when I looked it up I found a tweet with a wrong prediction that he said was wrong 10 days later.

    Insulting me is not gonna change my opinion or anyone who reads this. Backing up your claims with something more than "look it up" maybe will.

    Generated Summary:

    • Main Topic: The video discusses Palantir Technologies and its increasing role in centralizing and managing US government data, raising concerns about privacy and potential abuse of power.

    • Key Points:

      • An executive order in 2025 aimed to eliminate information silos within the government, centralizing data access.
      • Palantir is heavily involved in building databases for government agencies, including immigration enforcement (Doge project), the IRS, CDC and Homeland Security.
      • The speaker draws parallels to the Patriot Act and post-9/11 surveillance expansions, arguing that justifications for data collection often lead to broader applications beyond the initial stated purpose.
      • Concerns are raised about the lack of oversight and potential for misuse of centralized data by Palantir, a private company.
      • The video highlights the historical context of Palantir's founding, linking it to the "Total Information Awareness" initiative and figures like John Poindexter.
      • The speaker emphasizes the irony of a private company now holding the kind of data that caused public outcry when the NSA was revealed to be collecting it.
    • Highlights:

      • The Trump administration's motto: "Everyone is converting to Palantir."
      • Palantir's involvement in managing sensitive data across multiple federal agencies, including health and financial information.
      • The connection between Palantir's founders and the "Total Information Awareness" program.
      • The comparison of Palantir's current role to the NSA's controversial data collection practices revealed by Edward Snowden.
      • The video ends with a call for more attention to Palantir's activities and its potential impact on civil liberties.

    No shit, he said he was wrong after the full scale invasion began. It would be very strange for him to claim that "the invasion" is not happening after russia invaded.

    Before that he was openly parroting russian narratives about how US intel was incorrect and how the invasion wasn't happening.

    Many times. Want me to say it again? "Russia should not invade Ukraine."

    The reason I don't say it more is because it's a non-statement: everybody agrees with it, even Russians. The only people who think slogans solve the problem are people who don't understand the conflict.

    Lying about russian attitudes. 85% (with adjustments for preference falsification) of russians support the annexation of Crimea; the beginning of the invasion of Ukraine.

    15 Feb 2022

    I want to see an end to the conflict in Ukraine, and frankly, I think all reasonable people share that position. The question nobody seems to want to contend with is whether amplifying official claims made without evidence are reducing hostilities, or are in fact provoking them.

    3 Feb 2022

    TIME paints here a very different picture of the Ukraine crisis, reporting that it is a drive to censor and criminalize the domestic political opposition—a drive encouraged by the White House—that has brought some to believe war is the only option.

    He even uses the russian term "Ukraine crisis" and blames Ukrainians for russian aggression (ironic considering how "open" politics are in russia).

    He routinely promotes Glenn Greenwald (who said all Ukrainians are Nazis) and David Sachs, both of whom are openly supportive of russian genocidal imperialism.

    I highly doubt you'll change your opinion on Snowden. Generally speaking, it would be difficult for Snowden fanboys to admit that their hero isn't the paragon of virtue that they claim he is.

    Political tribalism works.

    We must stop falling for the divide and conquer strategies of the duopoly (lackeys of the oligarchs).

    “I would unite with anybody to do right and with nobody to do wrong.” – Frederick Douglass

    Instead of fighting over political leanings, try to hear what their arguments are and see where you agree.

    This will help us be willing to discuss and unify all working-class people on what views we share instead of just focusing on what we don't agree on.

  • I understand why the highly emotional response; we all have our subject that is dear to us. Mine is the Palestine genocide that is funded and fully supported by my country, the United States.

    Fuck Glenn Greenwald. He is a russian shill and supports russian genocidal

    I would implore you to stop only consuming Western pro-war propaganda and check out people like Professor Jeffrey Sachs.

    He outlines, in simple terms, the events that led to the war between Ukraine and Russia, as well as the Western push to also antagonize Iran and China.

    Self-built echo chambers and self-censorship are not healthy, nor do they help our society; we must always be critical of our governments and the politicians (paid-off lackeys of the owner class, oligarchs).

    Fuck Russia and fuck you, you piece of shit

  • Fuck Russia and fuck you, you piece of shit

    We all get emotional on certain topics; it is understandable.

    All is well, peace.

    They're like "Wahhh we need to hit 3.5% and then the fascist dictator will totally resign!" and then Trump is like "Oooo my delicate little feefees, oh well, here comes my Gestapo!" while the 50501 protest marshalls chant "We did it! We don't need crushing violence to make a change!" while completely ignoring that the NKD protests accomplished literally nothing.

    If you're a developer, a startup founder, or part of a small team, you've poured countless hours into building your web application. You've perfected the UI, optimized the database, and shipped features your users love. But in the rush to build and deploy, a critical question often gets deferred: is your application secure? For many, the answer is a nervous "I hope so." The reality is that without a proper defense, your application is exposed to a barrage of automated attacks hitting the web every second. Threats like SQL Injection, Cross-Site Scripting (XSS), and Remote Code Execution are not just reserved for large enterprises; they are constant dangers for any application with a public IP address. The Security Barrier: When Cost and Complexity Get in the Way The standard recommendation is to place a Web Application Firewall (WAF) in front of your application. A WAF acts as a protective shield, inspecting incoming traffic and filtering out malicious requests before they can do any damage. It’s a foundational piece of modern web security. So, why doesn't everyone have one? Historically, robust WAFs have been complex and expensive. They required significant budgets, specialized knowledge to configure, and ongoing maintenance, putting them out of reach for students, solo developers, non-profits, and early-stage startups. This has created a dangerous security divide, leaving the most innovative and resource-constrained projects the most vulnerable. But that is changing. Democratizing Security: The Power of a Community WAF Security should be a right, not a privilege. Recognizing this, the landscape is shifting towards more accessible, community-driven tools. The goal is to provide powerful, enterprise-grade protection to everyone, for free. This is the principle behind the HaltDos Community WAF. It's a no-cost, perpetually free Web Application Firewall designed specifically for the community that has been underserved for too long. It’s not a stripped-down trial version; it’s a powerful security tool designed to give you immediate and effective protection against the OWASP Top 10 and other critical web threats. What Can You Actually Do with It? With a community WAF, you can deploy a security layer in minutes that: Blocks Malicious Payloads: Get instant, out-of-the-box protection against common attack patterns like SQLi, XSS, RCE, and more. Stops Bad Bots: Prevent malicious bots from scraping your content, attempting credential stuffing, or spamming your forms. Gives You Visibility: A real-time dashboard shows you exactly who is trying to attack your application and what methods they are using, providing invaluable security intelligence. Allows Customization: You can add your own custom security rules to tailor the protection specifically to your application's logic and technology stack. The best part? It can be deployed virtually anywhere—on-premises, in a private cloud, or with any major cloud provider like AWS, Azure, or Google Cloud. Get Started in Minutes You don't need to be a security guru to use it. The setup is straightforward, and the value is immediate. Protecting the project, you've worked so hard on is no longer a question of budget. Download: Get the free Community WAF from the HaltDos site. Deploy: Follow the simple instructions to set it up with your web server (it’s compatible with Nginx, Apache, and others). Secure: Watch the dashboard as it begins to inspect your traffic and block threats in real-time. Security is a journey, but it must start somewhere. For developers, startups, and anyone running a web application on a tight budget, a community WAF is the perfect first step. It's powerful, it's easy, and it's completely free.

    There is a huge difference between an algorithm using real world data to produce a score a panel of experts use to make a determination and using a LLM to screen candidates. One has verifiable reproducible results that can be checked and debated the other does not. The final call does not matter if a computer program using an unknown and unreproducible algorithm screens you out before this. This is what we are facing. Pre-determined decisions that human beings are not being held accountable to. Is this happening right now? Yes it is, without a doubt. People are no longer making a lot of healthcare decisions determining insurance coverage. Computers that are not accountable are. You may have some ability to disagree but for how long? Soon there will be no way to reach a human about an insurance decision. This is already happening. People should be very anxious. Hearing United Healthcare has been forging DNRs and has been denying things like treatment for stroke for elders is disgusting. We have major issues that are not going away and we are blatantly ignoring them.
