This is a DEEPLY offensive slate and like nearly everything happening at CBS News feels way too similar to what happened to Gawker Media. Just the worst people you know trying to manage a company with zero understanding or real desire to do good. Just swinging egos around and breaking things.

the vast majority of people simply do not care about the wider world unless it is directly affecting them. AI datacenters are facing a backlash because they’re a scapegoat for actual frustrations with capitalism. people don’t see oil and gas as evil, they see Zuck and Elon as evil.

I understand the loathing that drives AI and data center opposition. I will never understand why the general public does not despise fossil fuel corporations with the same zeal. www.propublica.org/article/okla...
