State collapse is inevitable when a society’s leaders are insulated from the negative consequences of their bad decisions.

Who is marching in England, and why? Without any background information and no option to translate into English, this news bite is pretty useless.
No translation for you, I’m afraid, but here are some hints.
MILLONES
británicos
marchan
Plaza
Parlamento
revolución
Yes. I guessed at the meaning of the Spanish words but that doesn’t tell me why they (British citizens?) are marching. And to make a value decision about a news bite by guessing would not be wise of me. But I appreciate your “hints”.
This looks like AI to me, fake.
Yes, the video in that X post is AI-generated (or heavily AI-manipulated).Here’s why it’s clear from direct analysis of the clip and the surrounding context:Visual artifacts scream AI: The crowd is a uniform sea of pink/magenta blobs with almost no individual detail, faces, clothing variation, signs, or flags. Real aerial drone footage of protests shows messy, multicolored movement with visible people. This is a classic AI crowd-generation tell—amorphous, overly dense, and tinted for dramatic effect. The landmarks (Big Ben, Parliament, Thames, London Eye) look plausible because they were likely pulled from real stock or 3D models, but the people overlay is fake.
When a mistake is made like this, why do you not remove the post? This has happened a number of times in the last 6 months so it is not a oneoff. No matter how many times it happens, you all refuse to fix the problem. There is something afoot with that. I just came from another forum with a guy talking about this very post which he saw on THIS website and he said he saw where “someone” said it was an AI fake and apologized for it, but he insists that since the post was left up … it is obviously not a fake. My guess is that you leave these “mistake” posts up in order to push the narrative.
A lot of insinuations. I made a mistake and owned up to it. I did not say that it was AI but the turnout was still large. I did not delete it or cover it up. I added a statement in the post that it was AI.
As for the rest of your statements…
I very much appreciate the reply. It is largely for the reason that you guys do reply to observations and concerns that I patronize this sight.
You acknowledge you made a mistake with this post, and I appreciate this also. However, the point remains that among you guys who manage the postings here, there have been a fair number of such mistaken posts since the new site’s inception. Sometimes you have caught them yourselves and sometimes I have pointed them out. Each time, you have acknowledged the error. And there it all stops. In none of these cases have you removed the post. In several such cases, the very fact the post in question has remained has stimulated further conversation among responders discussing the relative truth of the post – despite you having acknowledged the error. In short, the act of not removing erroneous posts is in and of itself, immoral.
So, as for the rest of my statements … there are only two viable reasons to overtly commit such immoral acts: either you are exceedingly stupid and naive, or there is a more sinister reason – like knowingly promoting a false narrative. So, what say you?
Well, you will say nothing, of course. But now at least, it’s all out there.
Yes. It’s all out there now. What a poor troll. If I remove the post, you would say that I am covering up a mistake. By correcting the mistake (and the record), I am either stupid or sinister. And don’t forget to add in the immorality based on your feelings. Everyone makes mistakes but only bad trolls use a mistake to attack people.
There is no difference in policy between AR and NCR. If anything, I would say there are less errors and more postings. I addressed your concern with the video in England and you came back with more insinuations with no facts.
As for the initial point of your comment, although the picture appeared to be AI by Grok’s analysis, it has not had a community note on any of the X posts. It also reflected the actual size of the protest from other pictures.
They better be prepared to take it to the next level…because the pieces of shit that control their government have every intention of doing that.
