Naturally, the promotional video features mostly troons!
They're also hiding most every remotely critical reply, even things as inoffensive as a fucking emoji.

Impressive, very nice. Let's see Josh make this innocent Japanese McDonalds ad a topic about the fall of western civilization.

Well you see, the girl is hanging out with her boyfriend in the back of the car and the boyfriend turns into a wolf like in Little Red Riding Hood. The wolf is an analogy for the rapist jew and even though he transformed into his true form of a wolf, she is still smiling. This is an obvious allegory of how our SOCIETY accepts pornographer jews and appear to not see their true form even though it's as clear as day, women even smile at them. The West has fallen.

Edit: I didn't saw that Josh replied beforehand. I wasn't that far from his train of thought!

I don't know if this counts as newsworthy, but it's an interesting rabbit hole.

(TL;DR Eurocucks want to spy on every website user and make the websites pay for it.)

Last year there was an EU proposal for anti-CSAM regulations, based on mandatory AI image/video scanning for every platform. The big platforms already do that using certain tools, except the new regulations want full coverage on every bit of user-uploaded data, even private conversations and unpublished files. Even if it's encrypted.

The FBI's CSAM database and its query ability has been talked about, I think by Null but also by others. It basically takes hashes of known CSAM images from the fed's extensive collection, and lets websites check uploaded content against it before allowing publication. Graf mentioned he tried to sign up with the NGO who runs it, but they keep a tight leash on who's allowed in, and small places like poast get rejected. So there isn't a free or easy way for websites to block CSAM, even if they wanted to put in the work, even though there IS exactly that kind of tool made available for Big Tech to limit their exposure.

Which brings me to a weird article published today. It's focused on the EU regulations, and mentions the problems it might cause with privacy and encryption-banning. But mostly it traces lobbying connections to commercial CSAM-scanning providers lobbying for the regulation. Specifically, an organization called Thorn, started by Ashton Kutcher (of That 70's Show and Punk'd fame).

There's a whole Pepe Silva-esque tracing of influence and coordination, which is a bit hard to follow because the article isn't well-written. It seems like Thorn/Kutcher coordinated with a European "WeProtect Global Alliance" to lobby for these rules, which would result in every website with user-uploaded content being required to pay for services like Thorn provides.

There's also an organization, seemingly created from one massive donation from a US-based NGO, that uses sexual abuse survivors to guilt-trip the EU into increasing its mass surveillance.

Brave Movement’s internal advocacy documents lay out a comprehensive strategy for utilising the voices of abuse survivors to leverage support for Johansson’s proposal in European capitals and, most importantly, within the European Parliament, while targeting prominent critics...

Survivors of such abuse are key to the Brave Movement’s strategy of winning over influential MEPs.

“Once the EU Survivors taskforce is established and we are clear on the mobilised survivors, we will establish a list pairing responsible survivors with MEPs – we will ‘divide and conquer’ the MEPs by deploying in priority survivors from MEPs’ countries of origin,” its advocacy strategy reads.

There's a lot of details, but the main push seems to be government-mandated AI-driven scanning of everything, fueled by private for-profit AI firms. The president of Signal called them out on this explicitly, probably because Signal is notable for being hard to monitor and might become illegal under such regulations. He suggests it will have the same effect that the FBI CSAM database restrictions have: limiting exposure for big guys, while freezing out (or pricing out) smaller sites.

Meredith Whittaker, president of Signal Foundation, the US non-for-profit foundation behind the Signal encrypted chat application, says that AI companies that produce scanning systems are effectively promoting themselves as clearing houses and a liability buffer for big tech companies, sensing the market potential.

“The more they frame this as a huge problem in the public discourse and to regulators, the more they incentivise large tech companies to outsource their dealing of the problems to them,” Whittaker said in an interview for this story.

Effectively, such AI firms are offering tech companies a “get out of responsibility free card”, Whittaker said, by telling them, “’You pay us (…) and we will host the hashes, we will maintain the AI system, we will do whatever it is to magically clean up this problem”.

“So it’s very clear that whatever their incorporation status is, that they are self-interested in promoting child exploitation as a problem that happens “online,” and then proposing quick (and profitable) technical solutions as a remedy to what is in reality a deep social and cultural problem. (…) I don’t think governments understand just how expensive and fallible these systems are, that we’re not looking at a one-time cost. We’re looking at hundreds of millions of dollars indefinitely due to the scale that this is being proposed at.”

Anyway I thought it was an interesting intersection of surveillance, AI, de-anonymization, centralization, and other such things that have been making the Internet shittier. Turns out it may all be about money, again.

Huh that’s weird. I actually knew all these woman growing up. The weirdest thing is they were absolutely biological women before they started playing league of legends competitively. 3 of them had a husband and kids.

How odd. I wondered what could be responsible for turning them into insufferable Fanny traggots

You want a redpill on that topic?
Unit 731 never did any of the terrible things they are blamed to have done. It all came decades after the war from Chinese propaganda, all the pictures are proven photoshops, and there is a grand total of zero (0) physical proof. No body, no scientific report of the things they were supposed to have done, and the US war reports made during and after the war were never published.
There is more convincing evidence of the holocaust than there is of the war crimes of the unit 451.

There is that infamous photo of the "baby" on the end of a bayonet. Until relatively recently, I'd only ever seen censored blurred versions, but once I saw an uncensored version, I clearly saw a doll fashioned as a white baby. That was one of those moments.

I don't know how many versions of that photo exist, when what versions were making the rounds where, but something fishy has been going on at the very least.

@Null Josh, You are going to love this! After Johnny Samalii's arrest for breaking into a construction site, He was discussed/shown on Japanese National Television on a news network and they made sketches based on his stream footage and gave him huge ass nigger lips! Either Johnny gets deported or the Yakuza will take him out in prison. Either way, Based Japan.

Some Bossmanjack clips.
Chair throwing rage.

Headphone smashing:

Bossmanjack tells his dad(?) to not kill his buzz after he wins big on Keno:

"This is wrong!" He lost it all, it happened so fast guys.

Something fun to cap it off, very fitting with Halloween right around the corner.
