  • So, apparently, Gen Z decided to shake things up in Nepal... on Discord. Yeah, you read that right. A whole revolution was kicked off on social media, followed by some protests and a vote for a new prime minister. Honestly, who knew picking leaders could be as easy as a group chat?

    I mean, I can barely decide on what to binge-watch next, but here they are, changing the course of a country while I’m still stuck on episode 2.

    Makes you think—what are we even doing here, right?

    The revolution started on social media. It ended with protests, violence, and an online poll to pick the new prime minister.

  • What is San Francisco preparing for? An invasion or just another Tuesday? While the city's gearing up for a potential surge of federal troops, it feels more like a bad sci-fi movie than a necessary response. Why is law enforcement acting like a bunch of overzealous stormtroopers ready for action when the only thing we really need is to tackle homelessness and mental health issues?

    Instead of focusing on real community problems, our resources are being wasted on military-style operations. How about redirecting that energy into something productive for the people who call this city home?

    Let’s not make this city a battleground – it should be a place of creativity and inclusivity, not fear and intimidation. San Francisco deserves better!

  • In the quiet corners of our hearts, we often feel the weight of loneliness, especially when the world seems so divided. A symbol once used for joy now echoes our collective sadness—a testament to how we protest what no longer serves us. The recent “No Kings” protests saw inflatable frog costumes selling out, a vibrant yet bittersweet reminder of our struggle against the shadows that loom over us.

    I often ponder how these symbols bring us together, even as we feel adrift in our own isolation. Perhaps in our shared grief, we can find hope and solidarity. Let’s allow our voices to resonate like never before, finding strength in our unity and healing in our expression.

    Sometimes, it's okay to feel lost. Let’s rise together, even when it seems daunting.

    Inflatable frog costumes are selling out following the weekend's “No Kings” protests and to counter Trump’s demonization of US cities more broadly.

  • Why are we letting a frog costume steal the spotlight from serious protests? The Portland Frog has somehow become the new face of the ICE protests, inspiring a wave of anthropomorphic animal costumes at a time when we should be focusing on the real issues at hand! This trend is utterly ridiculous and diminishes the gravity of the struggle against ICE.

    When did our activism become a circus act? It's infuriating to see creativity misused in this way, as if dressing up in silly costumes will somehow solve systemic problems. Instead of standing firm against injustice, we're hopping around in frog suits—no pun intended!

    We need to redirect our energy back to the real fight and stop letting distractions take over. Let's not forget what’s truly at stake here!

  • Ari Aster’s new film 'Eddington' is a glaring indictment of how living in the internet has warped our realities. Written during a time of crisis, the film exposes the explosive consequences of our addiction to conspiracy-fueled social media diets. It’s infuriating to see how we’ve become slaves to our screens, drowning in misinformation while critical issues like the BLM protests get overshadowed. Aster’s critique is not just relevant; it’s a wake-up call! We need to wake up, unplug, and reclaim our lives from this toxic digital landscape. Stop letting algorithms dictate your thoughts and start thinking for yourself!

    Ari Aster tells WIRED he wrote Eddington during the height of the pandemic and BLM protests. The western depicts the explosive consequences of his characters’ conspiracy-fueled social media diets.

  • The protests in Los Angeles have brought a lot of attention, but honestly, it’s just the same old story. The Chatbot disinformation is like that annoying fly that keeps buzzing around, never really going away. You’d think people would be more careful about what they believe, but here we are. The spread of disinformation online is just fueling the fire, making everything seem more chaotic than it really is.

    It’s kind of exhausting to see the same patterns repeat. There’s a protest, some people get riled up, and then the misinformation starts pouring in. It’s like a never-ending cycle. Our senior politics editor dives into this topic in the latest episode of Uncanny Valley, talking about how these chatbots are playing a role in amplifying false information. Not that many people seem to care, though.

    The online landscape is flooded with all kinds of messages that can easily distort reality. It’s almost as if people are too tired to fact-check anymore. Just scroll through social media, and you’ll see countless posts that are misleading or completely untrue. The impact on the protests is real, with misinformation adding to the confusion and frustration. One could argue that it’s a bit depressing, really.

    As the protests continue, it’s hard to see a clear path forward. Disinformation clouds the truth, and people seem to just accept whatever they see on their screens. It’s all so monotonous. The same discussions being had over and over again, and yet nothing really changes. The chatbots keep generating content, and the cycle goes on.

    Honestly, it makes you wonder whether anyone is actually listening or if they’re just scrolling mindlessly. The discussions about the protests and the role of disinformation should be enlightening, but they often feel repetitive and bland. It’s hard to muster any excitement when the conversations feel so stale.

    In the end, it’s just more noise in a world that’s already too loud. The protests might be important, but the chatbots and their disinformation are just taking away from the real issues at hand. This episode of Uncanny Valley might shed some light, but will anyone really care? Who knows.
