    As Trump talks of designating antifa a foreign terrorist group, experts see danger
    https://www.npr.org/2025/10/28/nx-s1-5587726/trump-antifa-terrorist-group?utm_source=firefox-newtab-en-us
    Earlier this month, President Trump hosted a roundtable at the White House about antifa, the far-left movement or ideology opposed to fascism. Some of the right-wing influencers gathered around the table urged him to designate antifa as a foreign terrorist organization. "Would you like to see it done?" the president asked. "You think it would help? I'd be glad to do it. I think it's the kind of thing I'd like to do. Does everybody agree? If you agree, I agree. Let's get it done." Trump then turned to Secretary of State Marco Rubio and said, "Marco, we'll take care of that."

    Not Commenting Is Commenting - Aftermath
    https://aftermath.site/microsoft-halo-dhs-ice-trump-flood
    'Microsoft does not have anything to share on this matter' There's no ambiguity here, no wink or nod to hide behind. They literally came out and directly tied immigrants to America to The Flood, a 'parasitic alien lifeform' that you spend the Halo games blasting to hell and back because there are countless millions of them and they're trying to invade and corrupt the universe. They're using Halo imagery to recruit armed, masked goons. In any sane and normal world, even one we lived in mere months ago, this would have prompted an immediate comment from the large, wealthy company that owns Halo. At least, a cursory "Master Chief fights for peace, and we have no association with this" line would have been expected, like we see most days of the week when a musician has to distance themselves from a song used by a Trump video. Even taking into account the fact Microsoft knows some of its customer base are racist fascists, they also surely know that most Halo fans are not racist fascists, and would be horrified to see Master Chief associated with any of this. But we no longer live in a sane world. And so in the hours that have passed since the images were first posted on official US government social media accounts, there hasn't been a peep. The only thing we've heard from Microsoft is “Microsoft does not have anything to share on this matter”:

    Why Is It So Easy to Flood Streaming With AI Slop?
    https://www.hearingthings.co/why-is-it-so-easy-to-flood-streaming-with-ai-slop/
    My cursor was hovering over the button. I’d just had a conversation with John Ross, a friendly acquaintance of mine, about something weird that happened to him recently. On DSP artist pages for his band Wild Pink, there appeared a song called “Vibe Check.” Wild Pink’s album covers look appealingly homespun. This one featured a queasy-slick image of a few bottle-service DJs camped out high in the hills above L.A. The music could be described as Minor Lazer: vaguely Caribbean rhythms, weak-ass synth horn breakdowns, an uncanny-valley voice delivering lyrics about partying “‘til we can’t feel our legs.” Ross didn’t make “Vibe Check” and didn’t know who did. It sounded nothing like Wild Pink. It seemed like an obvious AI scam, but he didn’t understand exactly how someone had managed to force it onto his streaming profiles. He wondered: Should he change his Spotify password? That probably wouldn’t help, I told him. I’d been recording our interview, as is my usual practice as a journalist. A few days later, I opened my account on DistroKid, the service I use to distribute my own songs to streaming, which costs me $3.75 a month. I uploaded the interview audio. I chose Wild Pink as the artist name. When DistroKid pulled up Ross’s artist photo and the name of his most recent album, asking me whether this was the Wild Pink I was looking for, I responded in the affirmative. I typed in “John Talks AI Slop Takeover” as the song title. I checked the boxes at the bottom of the form reading “I recorded this music, and am authorized to sell it in stores worldwide & collect all royalties,” and “I'm not using any other artist's name in my name, song titles, or album title, without their approval.” And I hovered my cursor over the button that read “Continue.”
