We learn something new every day. This is a community dedicated to informing each other and helping to spread knowledge.
The rules for posting and commenting, besides the rules defined here for lemmy.world, are as follows:
Rules (interactive)
Rule 1- All posts must begin with TIL. Linking to a source of info is optional, but highly recommended as it helps to spark discussion.
** Posts must be about an actual fact that you have learned, but it doesn't matter if you learned it today. See Rule 6 for all exceptions.**
Rule 2- Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material.
Your post subject cannot be illegal or NSFW material. You will be warned first, banned second.
Rule 3- Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here.
Do not seek mental, medical and professional help here. Breaking this rule will not get you or your post removed, but it will put you at risk, and possibly in danger.
Rule 4- No self promotion or upvote-farming of any kind.
That's it.
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Posts and comments which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Rule 6- Regarding non-TIL posts.
Provided it is about the community itself, you may post non-TIL posts using the [META] tag on your post title.
Rule 7- You can't harass or disturb other members.
If you vocally harass or discriminate against any individual member, you will be removed.
Likewise, if you are a member, sympathiser or a resemblant of a movement that is known to largely hate, mock, discriminate against, and/or want to take lives of a group of people, and you were provably vocal about your hate, then you will be banned on sight.
For further explanation, clarification and feedback about this rule, you may follow this link.
Rule 8- All comments should try to stay relevant to their parent content.
Rule 9- Reposts from other platforms are not allowed.
Let everyone have their own content.
Rule 10- Majority of bots aren't allowed to participate here.

Can you imagine how much better the world would be if all these evil parasite people just disappeared?
And there really aren't that much of them, a few ten thousand at the most, world wide
If they'd all get a heart attack at three same time, poof, most of the world problems fixed or suddenly fixable
or they gather all in the same bunker.
Have they ever heard of Libertalia?
I think sterilization and patience is a more ethical solution
Autoclave or GTFO, eugenics won't prevent billionaires
We have to deal with the current infestation and then we can think about preventing new ones because right now incase you haven’t noticed ALL of our elected representatives are owned by them
eugenics won't prevent billionaires
Sieze their assets and throw them in prison then
We know we need reform too we’re not stupid. Also, we can have the capital punishment argument after they’ve been rounded up and put on trial for ALL their crimes against humanity
This isn't a reform vs eugenics thing. Eugenics is, on its own, a stupid idea. Especially so for a very common trait frequently found in surgeons.
Am I missing a link to the list of names?
Joseph Gordon Levitt wasn't one I would have predicted.
Just saw the list, Joseph Gordon Levitt is surprising. He was a child actor tho so it makes me wonder if he was abused and used it for leverage
I love how the guy who played Edward Snowden is buddies with the dark lord of surveillance.
JGL was (is?) a vocal advocate of repealing Section 230 liability protections for online content platforms. I want to believe his heart was in the right place, but he seemed to have a fundamental misunderstanding of the issues at play and I could see him being swayed by Thiel's negative aura.
Yeah, I remember he played a role as a pretty young teenager I wanna say where he was molested by his baseball coach and then sexually assaulted another kid. And it was all super dark. So I just gotta assume he has some first hand knowledge with folks who have been abused at the very least if not been abused himself. I hope he's just going to see what the other side is doing to better know the enemy but for all we know his name on the list is a red herring or even an inside joke for all we know.
It's available on Maia Arson Crimew's Bluesky.
Includes many people from Elon Musk, to Cory Brooker, to the CEO of YouTube.
JFC, that was accessible by just inspecting the web page?! Fucking amateurs.
Of course it released them lol
The list does not indicate whether any of those named are members, conference participants or guests of Dialog. Other exposed data, however, provides greater detail into those associated with the organization.
We probably shouldn't run after those guys with our pitchforks just yet, it doesn't mean much at this point.
Probably, probably... But maybe it's splainin' time?
I don’t know why, but I always kinda got the libertarian vibes from him. His clip show or however you’d describe it just seemed off to me, like he was trying to sell people something.
They aren't libertarians, they are setting up complete surveillance of the population, the exact opposite of libertarianism. They are technofascists, aspiring to be technofeudalists.
He's not wrong though. Those who both call themselves libertarian and lean that way are big into MAGA shit. Source: used to work for libertarian think-tank in misguided days of yore and am still chilled by it all. But I get your point that they're hypocrites/liars. Big-time creeps, some of them.
The libertarian party was long ago seized by the oligarchy that is very true. David Koch ran for president several times for them decades ago even. David was just a dumbass playboy to be sure, Charles Koch was/is the one running the evil empire of Koch Industries, but still.
I would like to know more about this work with the think tank even if you probably don't want to share the exact name, like what were they into? I know Cato actually is not all bad nowadays, there are a few issues they aren't totally fucked on, for instance I think they came out against pretti's assassination, what else, I forget.
It's a low bar obviously they are fucking tools don't get me wrong.
Sophia Bush either
Is it a super adventure club?
Meetings include pizza and D&D
Christmas adventurers club fo sho
Fuck all these technologist blowholes.
Where are the leaks?
Under there
Is that like the thing from One Battle After Another?
