Wait, what..? Something both the #Left and #Right can agree on?!! Maybe the right is waking up to #CorporateColonialism! Good! Our #CorporateOverlords take advantage of everyone! #Datacenter opponents stage 142 #protests across 42 US states Story by Valerie Volcovici and Lisa Baertlein, July 18, 2026 Excerpt: "Opponents of the rapid buildout of #datacenters held 142 protests across 42 states on Saturday in the first nationwide effort to channel anger at the #AI infrastructure expansion that has ramped up over the past year and roiled local politics. "The protests were coordinated by #HumansFirst, co-founded by a former leader of the modern-day #TeaParty. She compares growing opposition to data centers to the right-wing populist movement that emerged in 2009 to protest what it saw as excessive taxation and government overreach. "Protesters rallied against what HumansFirst calls the 'unaccountable' buildout of #datacenters and 'unacceptable infringement on our liberty.' "In #FredericksburgVA, one young man carried a sign reading, 'We thrive on water not data.' In #AtlantaGA, a small knot of protesters wielded signs reading, '#Georgia never voted for #hyperscale #AIDatacenters. ' " Read more: https://www.msn.com/en-us/politics/government/data-center-opponents-stage-142-protests-across-42-us-states/ar-AA28cU6m #ResistBigData #BigTech #BigData #USPol #DatacentersSuck #NoisePollution #LightPollution #ElectricityConsumption #Secrecy #AISucks

Duckbilled Plattypus. @pattykimura@beige.party · Jul 02, 2026
RE: https://flipboard.com/@politico/politics-u9ikh4qkz/-/a-CZkxlrc3RCWn7cBymFRn5w%3Aa%3A3195449-%2F0 Yay! Steve Bannon argues that #Mandami #BernieSanders #DSA are the ascendant political force like the #TeaParty populists pre-Koch corruption, and both MAGA and Democratic Party playbooks of "money wins" and traditional endorsements will no longer be determinate - enthusiasm, commitment, actions, and a resonant working people's message is now "the coin of the political realm" not billionaire or Party money that wins (take that SCOTUS). Bannon is pretty freaked out by Colorado socialists wins. He believes Mandami is not just a localized liberal NYC one-off, but a national trend. Bannon intimates that Trump is a disruptor, not a populist and cannot be replicated. Bannon, an unrepentant global white Christian nationalist/fascist is pushing his fear of this new emerging political change as "Marxist jihadism" ie every accusation is a confession. It may be why Trump is pushing "Commie" fearmongering... meanwhile a J6er Trump pardoned was revealed to have been a paid agent for Rubio's nemesis Cuba (paid by the grandson of Fidel, a Cuban government official). But low info MAGA don't care - they're angered by high prices in food, housing, and healthcare, by opulence and ostentatious shoved-in-our-faces wealth by those who claim to care but don't. Trump and MAGA and Musk as the avatars of the billionaire/trillionaire Epstein class are over.
