It’s amazing how many city council meetings and town halls have full on embraced fascism with every fiber of their being. They were the first to arrest people, dragging them out long before even the media starting caving to the authoritarianism we’re in .
404 MediaPolice arrested a teacher for clapping during a city council meeting last week. They went to the meeting of Emporia, Kansas City Commission to speak out against a proposed hyperscale data center that would sit on 1,000 acres of rural land. @mjgault.bsky.social reports www.404media.co/person-oppos...

The issue is not whether AI infrastructure should be built. It is whether public systems become stronger because it is built... The real test is simple: after the servers are switched on, is there more power, more capacity, more public value than before? africasacountry.com/2026/07/the-...
