"A little-known AI lab out of China has ignited panic throughout Silicon Valley after releasing AI models that can outperform America’s best despite being built more cheaply and with less-powerful chips.
"DeepSeek, as the lab is called, unveiled a free, open-source large-language model in late December that it says took only two months and less than $6 million to build, using reduced-capability chips from Nvidia called H800s."

Le Bon theorized that the new entity, the "psychological crowd", emerges from the incorporation of the assembled population, not only forming a new body but also creating a collective "unconsciousness". When a group of people comes together and coalesces to form a crowd, there is a "crowd-given magnetic influence" that transmutes each individual's behavior until it is governed by the "group mind." This model treats the crowd as a unit in its composition that robs each individual member of their opinions, values and beliefs; as Le Bon states, "An individual in a crowd is a grain of sand among other grains of sand, which the wind stirs at will."

Individuality Disappears In the Crowd
A crowd is not just a gathering of people, rather a group of people sharing the same sentiment. Le Bon argues that, when people come together as a crowd, their individual intelligence and characters are compromised. Instead, they form a collective mind that makes them think and act. Crowd members acquire a feeling of invincibility that allows them to do things that they wouldn’t do if they are on their own.
Crowds Are Easily Influenced
Given that the crowd forms a singular mind, it can be easily influenced by suggestions. Le Bon believes that a crowd’s mind cannot differentiate the subjective from the objective, and is only capable of thinking in vivid images and simple yet extreme ideas.
Secrets to Persuading the Crowd
After explaining the psychology and motivation behind crowds, Le Bon provides three key characteristics for leaders of crowds.
Affirmation: pure and simple messages that are free of reasoning and proof
Repetition: incessant repetition of the affirmation makes the inconceivable eventually facts in the crowd’s mind
Contagion: once affirmation message establishes its ground, the message will spread like a virus among the public

I'm actually thankful - really, honest to God - that the Democrats stole the 2020 election.
The Trump we are getting now, in 2025, is leaps and bounds better than what we would have gotten in 2021.
The Pence-to-Vance upgrade is huge on its own. Totally worth it just there.
But now that Trump had an election stolen from him, was unjustly persecuted and prosecuted, and survived their attempt to kill him...
He's unbound. Not messing around. Plus the best people in the MAGA wing of the party had four years to plan this onslaught of Executive Orders and what's going to come. The NeoCons have been crushed. America First is in control.
The Democrats made a massive mistake by rigging the 2020 election against him. Little did they know...
God really writes the best stories. We had to suffer for four years under the puppet Biden regime. But now...now we get this.
And it's incredible.

Words of wisdom, and a note of caution.
"Trump ran as a far-right populist during his 2015-2016 run for president, and he was supported by aspects of the elites such as the Clinton’s who encouraged him to run in order to blow up the Republican party (which he had done during his prior run for president in 2000 by undermining the campaign of Pat Buchanan) - everyone including Trump was surprised that he won; he spent his 2017-2020 presidency slowly purging the populist elements, including Steve Bannon, and unsuccessfully trying to accommodate himself to the establishment; he spent 2021-2023 locked in a battle for his life, facing massive criminal and civil charges that could have bankrupted him and put him in prison for life; and then you have the 2024 campaign and the start of Trump’s presidency now, where I contend that Trump completely caved behind closed doors to the upper elites to do whatever they wanted so long as he could win the controlled, rigged election, get rich and avoid prison.1 I covered the Trump campaign, presidency, and his 2020 run for re-election in this three part series which delves into the details of this narrative. The clue and giveaway that Trump caved in 2024 is that, other than the fact that he was allowed to win a controlled election2, Trump’s criminal and civil trials disappeared, the elite-owned media stopped endlessly calling him the equivalent of Hitler and started treating him neutrally to even positively, and the shitlib NPC mobs were placed on idle-mode stand-down — this would literally not have happened unless they were comfortable and accepting of whatever role they now have for Trump."

"Was Albert Einstein an anti-Semite? Was Hannah Arendt? These questions may sound ludicrous. Yet, according to the definition of anti-Semitism that more than 30 countries -- including the United States through the Biden administration -- recently adopted, these two leading intellectuals could very well be labeled as such. This is due to an open letter they sent on Dec. 4, 1948, to The New York Times, claiming that the right-wing Herut Party in the newly formed State of Israel was “closely akin in its organization, methods, political philosophy and social appeal to the Nazi and Fascist parties.”

“We have the right to demand that our allies invite Ukraine to NATO,” Polish President Andrzej Duda stated.
He emphasized that there is still a threat to their territory, with planes constantly being activated as Russian missiles fall on Ukrainian cities.
“Regardless of the circumstances, I have the right to put on the table the demand to send Ukraine an official invitation to join NATO,” Duda added during a conversation with reporters in Davos.

"The shocking details that Hodder presents on how terrible the mainstream publishing is to its authors are hard to believe. Not only does a full year of work only net an author around $8,600 with current currency conversions, but for a company to own the book outright as a work for hire, refuse to put it out, and then not even allow the author to get the book back so he can sell it to his fans is a story more common than not."
