Word of the day: AI-washing
"Where management wants to cut labor costs a la Amazon, shift to cheaper contract labor a la Klarna, or execute layoffs for ideological reasons, a la DOGE, “AI” is an extremely potent justification. Some business professors and analysts have taken to calling this practice “AI-washing.””

"He [potus] spoke of a necessary confrontation with an “enemy from within” and proposed using our own cities as “training grounds” for troops. This rhetoric dangerously blurs the line between soldier and police officer, a distinction that has been a cornerstone of American liberty for over two centuries and is enshrined in federal law. It is a radical departure that treats dissent as insurgency and American communities as battlefields."

"Within political parties, the same logic has often reappeared: rally the membership around the leader by creating an “internal other” to be purged — an “other” supposedly conspiring against the very essence of the organisation, which is, in turn, embodied by the leader or ruling clique."
