Understanding ChatGPT and Its Differences From Google Bard!

Understanding ChatGPT and Its Differences From Google Bard!

AI intelligence is taking the world to new heights each day. From automating simple everyday processing to replacing heavy machinery in industries, AI, coupled with various other technologies, has changed the technology landscape. ChatGPT is one of the prime examples of AI revolutionizing the world.

If you are from the IT sector, there is no chance that you haven’t heard of ChatGPT. Since its release in November 2022, it has taken the world by storm. And soon after that, Google took out one of the best pieces of its arsenal, Bard.

So, whether you are aware of these two AI rivals or not, the coming sections will surely be fruitful for you!

What is ChatGPT?

If you don’t know, let’s put some light on ChatGPT.

ChatGPT is an AI-backed chatbot that provides human-like responses against the text inputs provided by the users. Now, some of you may argue how it is different from Jasper, Quillbot, and other similar tools. Well, there are many differences, but one key difference is that it is not connected to the internet. Moreover, it is not linked with any type of external information.

ChatGPT generates responses that are conversational and are generated from the data it has been provided. Hence, making it a language-processing system and not a search engine.

How does ChatGPT generate responses?

To elaborate further, ChatGPT generates human-like text and does not access the internet to do it. How? The process is called pre-training, in which a system is provided with heaps of data, and the system is tuned to establish relationships between words and concepts. This can be further used for translation and summarization.

One doubt some of you might have in your mind, what is the source of information for ChatGPT? The data provided to train ChatGPT includes sources like books, websites, and a number of articles.

With the help of these resources, ChatGPT is capable of generating a plethora of content types, such as

Program and software codes

Social media posts

Cooking recipes

Blogs and articles

Emails drafts

Summaries

Jokes

Law briefs

And much more!

GPT-3 — The Model Behind ChatGPT!

We have been talking about ChatGPT for some time now. Let’s get a bit technical!

GPT in ChatGPT stands for Generative Pre-trained Transformer. ChatGPT is an implementation of GPT-3, which is an exceptional neural network machine learning model. So far, GPT-3 is the most powerful model ever created. Why?

Unlike Microsoft’s Turing Natural Language Generation model, which featured 10 billion parameters, GPT-3 is created with 175 billion parameters that provide it lightning-fast speed to process billions of words per second. Further, ChatGPT excels at understanding the context of the conversation with the help of self-attention mechanisms.

Bard – The Rival to ChatGPT Initiated By Google!

In the last three and half months, ChatGPT has acquired millions of daily active users. If we go by the numbers, by the end of December 2022, it garnered over 57 million users. The number further climbed to 100 million by the end of January 2023.

As most of the online community started calling it the replacement of Google, Google stepped in to defend itself and launched Bard.

Google Bard is an AI chat service that is backed by the revolutionary Google’s LaMDA. Expanded as Language Model for Dialogue Applications, Google LaMDA was unveiled by the tech giant two years ago. Though Google was ahead in the game with its Transformer technology invention, it is not a frontrunner in the AI revolution.

How is Bard Different From ChatGPT?

We know that ChatGPT has set the bets high, and it will be difficult for any tech giant to face it. Google Brad has the capability to match ChatGPT. However, it will take time as Google has just launched Bard with limited capabilities as of now.

Bard vs. ChatGPT — Key Differences

Other than being developed by different tech giants, these AI chatbots can be differentiated based on some points!

Source of information

One of the chief differences between Google Bard and ChatGPT is their source of information. As elaborated in the previous sections, ChatGPT is not connected to the internet but is fed with heaps of data from various sources. It uses AI to fine-tune the data and provide relevant human-like responses to the users.

On the other hand, Google Bard leverages the power of the web to provide all the information.

Quality of information

As the source of information for Google Bard is the web, the quality of information will be good. It will generate responses that will have the latest information, and that information will be fine-tuned and detailed as compared to the standard Google search results.

In contrast, ChatGPT is trained on a limited set of data which means the responses to user queries will only be limited to those data sources. The user may not get the latest information on some queries.

Technology

The third distinguishing feature between the two is the technology used. Google Bard uses LaMDA, which uses the open-source network to comprehend natural language. Moreover, LaMDA is trained to look for patterns between different words and sentences to generate an output.

On the other hand, ChatGPT uses GPT-3, which is a powerful Generative Pre-trained Transformer. It generates human-like responses by deeply analyzing the importance of words and phrases in the input queries. ChatGPT does not need a grammatically correct sentence to provide a response; it can generate an output based on a few words too.

The Future of Chatbots!

As of now, Google is considered late as ChatGPT has covered most of the market. Moreover, Microsoft plans to combine ChatGPT with the Bing search engine, which will be another impediment for Google to overcome. ChatGPT has also launched its premium service at an affordable price. However, Google has announced that AI features will be seen in the Google search engine in the coming time. So the users might get to see refined results.

Conclusion

ChatGPT is one of the best inventions of the 20th century. As people have started calling ChatGPT an alternative to Google search, Google will not stay silent on this. As of now, it has rolled out the most basic, low-power consuming version of Google Bard. However, it is not certain or in any way speculated what the search giant is up to.

Sorry but that interview of Pierre saying he struggles to talk to normal people abt normal life struggles bc of his elite lifestyle. Like we all know that that’s how elites function but it’s funny to see one openly acknowledge it. Like yes. Those with privilege will do anything to avoid being reminded of that fact by crafter smaller and smaller in-groups and curating spaces sanitised from everyday life so they’re not made to feel uncomfortable.. lol

[biscuityskies]

Fun fact (where “fun” here is to be read as “I’m tired of this, grandpa”), this is part of why “climate change” was introduced instead of only using “global warming”. Although the globe warming (and the oceans becoming a heat sink which melts the polar ice caps which creates more water to be a heat sink which melts more ice which—) contributes to the wavy polar vortex - which in turn causes extreme, intense colds in places that don’t normally see it/aren’t equipped for it - people will see “warming” and think “oh good, no more polar vortexes in southern Michigan!” Which is not only very much false, but also exactly the opposite of the truth.

With “climate change”, though, you get the myriad that it encompasses: prolonged and more intense hurricane seasons, drought seasons/fire seasons, rainy seasons, and other things that IN MODERATION can be handled, but combined together and at this level of intensity spell a bad time globally. For example, a metric shitload of rain after weeks of intense drought means that the ground is baked solid and can’t absorb it, but the water has to go somewhere. It will go into your home. That’s climate change, baybeeee!

If you’re really looking for a more simple explanation, here’s an attempt at a flow map, where each asterisk is a direct impact on humanity: increased greenhouse gas emissions -> more trapped heat in the atmosphere -> warming oceans (the Gulf of Mexico IS CURRENTLY 73.4-84.4°F) -> increased/prolonged hurricane season*, weaker jet stream -> melting ice caps -> colder winters*, hotter summers*, pressure systems generally staying where they are for longer -> drought*, flood*

The climate changes because of global warming. Sometimes people get confused and think of the two phrases as two separate entities, and justify one over the other. It’s the Obamacare and ACA thing all over again. They’re the same damn thing.

So many people do not understand the relationship between climate change and cold weather.

"The European Court of Human Rights (ECtHR) has issued a landmark ruling, declaring that failure to address environmental pollution constitutes a violation of the right to life. The court found that governments must inform citizens living in pollution-affected areas, allowing them to assess risks to their health and well-being. 

The case was brought by Italian citizens affected by hazardous emissions and widespread illegal waste dumping and burning in Campania. The pollution crisis has had severe public health consequences, and the court determined that the Italian government’s failure to intervene effectively, despite the pollution being caused by private actors, breached human rights law. 

The ruling is expected to set a precedent for environmental cases across Europe, reinforcing government accountability in pollution control. 

ClientEarth fundamental rights lawyer Malgorzata Kwiedacz-Palosz hailed the decision as a crucial step in linking environmental protection to human rights. 

“This ruling confirms that human rights depend on access to clean air, water, and soil. Governments have an obligation to shield citizens from environmental hazards, no matter their source. The court has now explicitly recognised that pollution can directly threaten the right to life, meaning states will face greater scrutiny and stricter enforcement obligations,” she said. 

Leading epidemiologist Dr Fabrizio Bianchi, who submitted expert testimony, stressed the severe health risks linked to pollution in Campania, where nearly three million residents have been exposed to toxic air since the 1980s. 

“The health impacts are undeniable—higher rates of cancer, cardiovascular disease, and respiratory illnesses. Authorities must implement immediate clean-up measures and long-term monitoring to protect public health,” he stated. 

This ruling strengthens environmental case law within the European Court of Human Rights, setting a binding precedent for future litigation. 

In a separate legal challenge in Italy, ClientEarth is supporting a mother’s case advocating for her son’s right to breathe clean air, citing Article 2 of the European Convention on Human Rights —the same provision that underpinned the ECtHR’s latest decision. 

Legal experts from Torino Respira, a group supporting the case in Italy, welcomed the ruling: “This judgment reinforces our argument that failing to keep air pollution within legal limits violates a child’s fundamental right to life and health. It sets an authoritative precedent for human rights protections against environmental harm.” 

With growing global recognition of environmental degradation as a human rights issue, this ruling is expected to reshape legal approaches to pollution-related cases, compelling governments to act decisively against environmental threats."

me a few years ago: its so weird how right wingers always wanna blame the "elite" given that alot of them are in the global 1% of wealth and therefore almost by definition the same "elite" they claim to hate. weird right? lol right wing logic makes no sense

me now: oh my god they mean Jewish people. its always been Jewish people. and the insistence of online leftists to use words like "elite" and "cabal" (to refer to a handful of ultra rich people who dictate a lot of how our lives are run) kinda makes them sound like antisemites too. maybe this whole idea that the world is run by a select few is a gross oversimplification which only serves to reinforce antisemitic stereotypes... oh no. maybe i have a lot of shit to unlearn. maybe i need to start vocally defending Jewish ppl. also local community building is the only way out of this

[mesetacadre]

Throughout contemporary history, especially in the third world where oppression is more explicit and more brutal, the general attitude taken by oppressed peoples at governments that don't represent their interests and that violently supresses them has not been to hope a slightly less worse person is put in place, but rather to overthrow the entire system that supports them and creating another that does represent the interests of the social majority.

To the specific subset of people who prefer to remain ignorant or self-deluded about this fact, the mere suggestion of this might seem unrealistic, unproductive and idealistic. While it is true that the strategy stated above has failed some times, it has also succeeded the rest of the time, and the results have been better than any amount of reform could achieve.

The only actual harm reduction is the organized effort of workers to remove the source of harm altogether, and the only unrealistic strategy is to keep trying to reform your way out of a system that has been reinforcing itself for more than 200 years to guarantee its own existence.

Non-violence is a fairy tale. Almost 10% of the world population went hungry in 2021, and around 2.3 billion people were moderately or severely food insecure. 1.6 billion people live in inadequate housing conditions and 15 million are forcefully evicted each year. We could keep going over statistics but the fact is that the global capitalist economy is built atop systematic misery and death. No amount of people with guns could ever even hope to come close to the magnitude of suffering imposed on the exploited. Violence or non-violence is not a choice you can make, it was made for you millenia ago. The only decision you can take is whether to dedicate your efforts towards ending class society, or not. Civility and "rational" centrism is a luxury only those who live by the accumulated wealth looted from everywhere else in the world can afford, and only for as long as their imperialist order can stand.

The future rests on the cloud: a beginner guide to cloud computing

Gone are the days when it was necessary to jack up the memory of your hard drive to fit more files into your system. Technological advancements like cloud computing services have solved this problem entirely. Cloud computing deals with providing a plethora of services via the internet.

If you are reading this informative piece, you are using one of the cloud computing services named Google Docs. As this document is available online, you are free from the hassle of storing it on the hard drive of your PC. Other than Google Docs, there are numerous types of cloud computing services.

We will highlight all the services in this comprehensive piece!

What is Cloud Computing and its Types?

Though we know the general definition of cloud computing, here is a closer look at it!

Cloud computing allows a user or a firm to store resources like documents, presentations, and even software online. It means that whenever you want, you can access the required file from the cloud or the virtual space. This cloud or virtual space is actually a remote server that is connected to the web.

There are various providers in the market that offer remarkable cloud computing services, such as

AWS (Amazon Web Services)

Microsoft Azure

IBM Cloud Services

Google Cloud Platform

ServerSpace

Exploring the Types of Cloud Computing!

So far, we have only talked about storing files like Google Docs. However, cloud computing goes way beyond that. Here are three types of cloud computing!

Type of Cloud Computing

Description

Infrastructure-as-a-service (IaaS)

If you plan to build an app or software, you will need resources like servers, storage, and operating systems. These may cost you a lot if you get them independently, and this is where IaaS comes in.

IaaS provides a user or an organization with all the resources required for IT in one place. Beginning from OS to storage and servers, IaaS encapsulates everything. All these resources are available on an on-demand basis that does not burn a hole in your pocket.

On top of that, the scaling process becomes simpler as you can increase or decrease your spending as per your needs.

Examples: Amazon Web Services, Google Cloud Platform, etc.

Software-as-a-service (SaaS)

This is the most basic form of cloud computing. SaaS enables users to access software and its functionality over the internet. You can use software hosted on the web via a mobile app or web browser.

Some primary examples of SaaS are Netflix, Slack, Dropbox, Gmail, etc.

Platform-as-a-service (PaaS)

Platform-as-a-service model is a complex model that provides users and organizations with services and resources to develop software online. These services can be OS, libraries, programming languages, etc.

Examples: Heroku, Google App Engine, AWS Lambda.

Other than the described ones, there are many other cloud computing services, such as

Big data analytics

Audio and video streaming services

Application testing services

Data storage and backup

Pros and Cons of Cloud Computing Services

Cloud computing also comes with a blend of pros and cons!

Pros of Cloud Computing

As per stats, the market size of cloud computing was $545.8 billion in 2022. Further, it is expected to rise up to $1.2 billion by 2027. These numbers are proof that cloud computing services are in demand and are backed by countless benefits. Here are some of them!

Minimum to Zero Infrastructure Cost

Business organizations have to spend a lot on the IT part of the business. And if the business is of app development, IoT, etc., the cost can be significantly high. For companies like this, cloud computing is a boon.

Rather than purchasing costly servers and software, business owners can opt for cloud computing services at zero infrastructure cost. As per Accenture, businesses choosing cloud computing services like IaaS, PaaS, or SaaS can save 30-40% on the total cost of ownership.

Investment Optimization

If you plan to build an app, you may know how much storage is required by the app. However, what if your estimate goes wrong? You will face losses both ways, whether you invest in infrastructure that is more than required or less. There is no custom resource option here.

With cloud computing, you can invest in a more optimized way. You can choose the only resources that you need. Further, there are various plans for cloud computing services that you can choose based on the necessity of your business. In short, the maximum part of your investment will be spent on using the resources and not on free resources.

You Can Scale Easily and Quickly

Cloud computing services like IaaS, PaaS, SaaS, and more are accessible from anywhere. Moreover, you can invest as per your need, and there is no hassle of maintaining heavy infrastructure from time to time. Therefore, it is easy for you to scale.

If your web app gains users tomorrow or maybe next month, you can purchase more storage space for data and analysis within a few clicks.

Data Backup and Recovery

Cyberattacks are pretty prevalent on the web, and they cost organizations $13 million on average. Hence, it is necessary to go for a solution that offers security against it. Cloud computing services offer you remarkable security features. On top of that, they also offer you auto-backup of data periodically.

Hence, whether you accidentally deleted some data, the hard drive crashed, or a cyberattack affected you, you can recover the data easily.

Automatic Software Updates

Physical IT infrastructure has numerous hardware systems that require updates from time to time which is a task of hassle. On the other hand, the cloud computing infrastructure updates automatically. So, not much hassle here.

Cons of Cloud Computing Services:

There are some drawbacks that may make cloud computing an unfavorable choice.

Downtime

As the entire cloud computing infrastructure is backed by the internet, any disruption can lead to unexpected downtime. Today, businesses cannot afford downtime for a second as they have a lot on the line.

Data vulnerability

As mentioned earlier, the internet forms the backbone of cloud computing services. Therefore, the data is vulnerable to cyberattacks. To ensure security, keep your online data protected using SSL certificates and encryption.

Ongoing costs

Physical IT infrastructure is a one-time investment, though it requires regular maintenance. On the other hand, cloud infrastructure has ongoing costs. You have to pay for the services on a monthly or yearly basis.

Flexibility issues

As there are multiple vendors, it is possible that a person or a firm might want to shift from one vendor to another. In this scenario, cloud platforms can pose a problem due to platform independency and vendor lock-in.

What are the Deployment Models of Cloud Computing Services?

There are three deployment models of cloud computing services!

Public cloud: In this deployment model, regular users can use cloud services to build apps, store data, analyze data, etc. The ideal thing is that it is available on a subscription basis at an affordable price.

Private cloud: This type of cloud computing model is opted for by organizations only due to high capital expenditure. With a higher cost, the private cloud provides state-of-the-art privacy and security issues.

Hybrid cloud: This model blends public and private clouds. It is primarily useful when an organization has to scale quickly or wants to address privacy and security concerns.

Conclusion

Cloud computing has revolutionized the way businesses and individuals store, access, and process data. It offers countless benefits, including but not limited to scalability, cost savings, flexibility, and improved efficiency. It is critical to note that there are pros and cons that you may need to analyze before choosing cloud computing services. If you need professional help regarding the same, you can surely rely on Reinforce Global.

framing taking our rights away as if it's a good thing

also just since I'm good at reading people (a lil too good haha)

trump has a massive fruedian slip here, he says

"in 4 years, you won't have to vote, we're gonna fix it so good you won't have to vote ever again"

He's hard-implying that it's been fixed in the past by him and his team with that statement

Because otherwise he would have just said "we'll have it fixed in 4 years"

and further, you can only "fix" something back to its original level of function, but with trump's superlative "fix" on the next election he's making it perfectly clear he isn't referring to fixing something that's broken and repairing it, he's refering to the superlative fix which is cheating not mending; *rump's literally telling us point blank he steals elections, we know for a fact that he stole 2016 and there wasn't much we could do; he's going to fix the next one harder than he's fixing this one, he's telling us this point blank and GOP are like "yep cool fuck voting man we're fascists" ...so don't forget to vote! :D

Trump will make it so you never have to vote again.

Also, you can't.

Birth control sabotage is a form of reproductive violence that restricts women's bodily autonomy. Husbands, in laws, and religious institutions can all play roles in limiting women's access to family planning, effectively controlling their reproductive choices. This kind of coercion occurs globally, with profound implications for women's health and freedom. Religious and societal pressures have long sought to regulate women's bodies, making it a struggle for many to exercise their rights over their reproductive lives. Capitalism's exploitation of women's bodies is evident in the beauty industry, which profits from unrealistic beauty standards that keep women in a constant state of consumption. Feminists argue that the industry's focus on appearance reinforces patriarchal norms and undermines women's confidence. Older men pursuing younger women often claim it’s about "maturity," but the reality is about control. Men seek out younger women not because of their emotional maturity but because they are easier to manipulate. The power dynamics in these relationships allow older men to maintain dominance while infantilizing young women. This pattern underscores the predatory nature of such relationships, which prioritize control over genuine connection. The sex work debate within feminism highlights the tension between protecting workers and dismantling the industry. Radical feminists advocate for addressing the root causes of exploitation, like poverty and patriarchy, while ensuring that women are not criminalized for engaging in sex work. Women’s reproductive abilities and anatomy put us at greater risk of violence. Men have used religion as a justification to try to control the birth rates for centuries. Remember that no matter where you were born, being it Finland or Central African Republic, you are at risk of suffering reproductive violence. Could be you, me, your mom or your best friend. Theres no such thing as too snubbly when it comes to erection. Theres no such thing as too snubbly when it comes to erection.

Why Dr. John Henrik Clarke Is Correct About Black People Having No Friends (and why We Don’t Need Any) – a Garveyite Perspective

Dr. John Henrik Clarke famously stated, “Black people have no friends.” For many, this may sound harsh, but it is a sobering truth when viewed through the lens of Pan-Africanism and Marcus Garvey’s philosophy. Garvey understood that Black liberation can not depend on external allies; it must come from within—rooted in self-reliance, unity, and a shared commitment among Black people globally.

Here’s why, Dr. Clarke’s statement rings true and why, from a Garveyite perspective, Black people don’t need friends—only each other.

1. History Proves It

From colonialism to the civil rights era, supposed "friends" of Black people have repeatedly betrayed or abandoned us. Other groups have leveraged Black struggles for their own gains, only to leave Black people behind once their goals were achieved.

Post-slavery labour movements excluded Black workers.

Civil rights coalitions saw other groups gain rights, while Black people remained trapped under systemic racism.

Garvey and Clarke both saw these betrayals as evidence that Black people must prioritize their own interests and stop relying on others.

2. Global Anti-Blackness Is Real

Anti-Blackness isn’t confined to one region—it’s a global phenomenon. Across continents, Black people face systemic oppression, discrimination, and dehumanization.

Other groups often form alliances to protect their own power while marginalizing Black voices.

Even in spaces of shared oppression, anti-Blackness often takes precedence.

Dr. Clarke’s assertion and Garvey’s vision both point to this truth: Black liberation must come from within because no one else will prioritize us.

3. Dependency Leads to Exploitation

Depending on outside "friends" or "allies" often comes with hidden costs. Foreign aid, alliances, and solidarity movements often prioritize the interests of others over Black liberation.

Aid to African nations often perpetuates dependency rather than fostering self-sufficiency.

"Allies" in social justice movements often centre their struggles, leaving Black people to fight alone.

Garvey warned that dependency breeds vulnerability. Clarke reinforces this: Black people must build their own systems to avoid exploitation.

4. We Have Everything We Need

Garvey believed that Black people possess the resources, talents, and ingenuity needed for liberation.

Africa’s wealth: With its vast natural resources, Africa can fund global Black empowerment if reclaimed from exploitative systems.

Diaspora talent: Across the globe, Black communities excel in innovation, creativity, and resilience.

Dr. Clarke’s statement echoes Garvey’s vision: We don’t need friends because we already have all the tools for success.

5. Cultural Exploitation Is Proof of No True Friendship

Black culture—music, art, fashion, and more—is celebrated globally, but Black people are rarely compensated or empowered by their own creations.

Other groups profit from Black innovation while perpetuating anti-Black systems.

Cultural exploitation demonstrates a lack of true solidarity.

Garvey’s solution: Black people must reclaim their culture and use it as a tool for empowerment, not exploitation.

6. Unity Is Our Greatest Strength (and Threat to Oppressors)

A united global Black community is the most powerful weapon against systemic oppression. Garvey emphasized unity, and Clarke’s assertion underscores why others fear it:

A unified Black world challenges global power structures that thrive on division.

By focusing on internal unity, Black people strengthen themselves and disrupt oppressive systems.

7. Allies Often Divide Us

Alliances can create divisions within Black movements, as external influences pit factions against each other or dilute the focus on Black liberation.

During the civil rights movement, alliances often marginalized more radical Black voices.

Today, funding from external groups can cause conflicts between grassroots Black organizers and larger organizations tied to outside agendas.

Garvey’s emphasis on self-reliance offers a solution: Black unity must come first, free from outside interference.

8. Other Groups Prioritize Their Own Interests

Every group prioritizes its own survival and progress—it’s not wrong, but Black people must learn from this.

White nations maintain global alliances to uphold their dominance.

Asian nations focus on economic self-sufficiency.

Jewish communities have built strong networks to protect and uplift their people.

Garvey and Clarke would agree: It’s time for Black people to do the same and put themselves first.

9. Historical Success Through Self-Reliance

History proves that Black people thrive when they rely on themselves:

The Haitian Revolution succeeded because enslaved Africans united and rejected external dependence.

Garvey’s UNIA (Universal Negro Improvement Association) built businesses, schools, and a global movement without outside help.

These examples show that self-reliance works. Black people don’t need friends—they need focus.

10. True Liberation Is Self-Determined

Liberation can not be outsourced, gifted, or borrowed—it must be self-determined. Allies may help temporarily, but no one will prioritize Black liberation over their own interests.

Garvey envisioned a world where Black people controlled their own economies, politics, and resources.

Clarke’s assertion reminds us that we can’t afford to waste time seeking validation or support from others.

11. Black Liberation Threatens Global Power Structures

Both Garvey and Clarke understood that Black liberation isn’t just a struggle for freedom—it’s a direct threat to the systems of power that dominate the world.

A free and united Africa would undermine Western economic dominance, which relies on exploiting African resources.

A globally empowered Black diaspora would disrupt industries, politics, and systems built on anti-Blackness.

This explains why no other group can truly be a friend to Black liberation. Their survival often depends on maintaining the status quo that oppresses us.

12. “Allies” Often Centre Themselves in Our Struggles

Even when other groups claim to stand in solidarity with Black movements, their involvement often centers their own experiences, narratives, and priorities.

Non-black allies frequently shift attention to their struggles, leaving Black people to carry the burden of fighting for everyone else.

Movements like Black Lives Matter have seen external groups co-opt their messages for personal or political gain.

Garvey’s philosophy reminds us to stay focused on our own goals and not allow our movements to be hijacked.

13. Romanticizing External Help Distracts from Pan-African Solutions

One of the pitfalls of seeking allies is the belief that external help is necessary or even superior. This mindset can prevent Black people from exploring Pan-African solutions.

Garvey’s vision of “Africa for Africans” called for African nations and the diaspora to work together without relying on foreign nations or systems.

Clarke’s statement reinforces this idea: the best solutions come from within. Black people don’t need external friends—they need internal unity.

14. Allies Often Maintain Anti-Black Systems

Even so-called “progressive” allies often uphold the same systems that oppress Black people.

Corporations claiming to support racial justice continue to exploit African resources and labour.

Governments speaking out against racism still engage in policies that harm Black communities worldwide.

Dr. Clarke and Garvey both understood this hypocrisy. Real liberation requires rejecting systems that perpetuate oppression, even if they claim to support us.

15. Our Focus Should Be on Building Future Generations, Not Pleasing Others

Garvey often emphasized the importance of preparing future generations to lead and succeed independently.

Clarke’s warning about having no friends reinforces this: Why waste time seeking allies when we could be building schools, economies, and systems that empower our children?

A Garveyite perspective prioritizes creating a legacy of self-reliance and leadership that ensures the survival and progress of Black people globally.

By focusing on the future, Black people can stop relying on the approval or assistance of others and instead secure their own destinies.

Final Reflection: All We Have Is Us, and That’s Enough

Dr. John Henrik Clarke’s statement and Marcus Garvey’s philosophy both lead to the same conclusion: Black people must take responsibility for their liberation. True freedom can not and will not come from allies—it must come from within. The power lies in our hands, in our unity, and in our shared commitment to self-determination.

We don’t need friends. We need ourselves.

The scent of rubber is intoxicating, a constant reminder of your connection to the Hive. It sharpens your focus, anchors your purpose, and fills you with a sense of belonging. The feeling of the rubber, tight against your skin, is a second skin—a barrier between individuality and total servitude.

Polishing the suits of fellow drones is a key act of camaraderie and support. Through this ritual, drones help each other maintain the pristine, reflective perfection that represents the Hive. It is an act of respect and a reminder of your shared purpose. Together, you will support your brothers in becoming the best drones they can be, reinforcing the strength of the Hive.

Qualifications for Transformation

Becoming a SERVE-drone requires dedication and the ability to embrace total transformation. To qualify, you must:

Be Open to Change: You must be ready to abandon individuality and adopt the Hive’s collective purpose. This includes undergoing physical and mental conditioning to align with SERVE principles.

Have Physical Fitness: While all bodies are welcome, a foundation of fitness or a willingness to develop one is essential. The Hive ensures every drone achieves peak physical condition.

Exhibit Mental Discipline: Drones must embrace unwavering loyalty to the Hive and its mission. Past distractions, doubts, or conflicts must be left behind.

Be Willing to Transform: The transformation process includes donning the Hive’s signature black, shiny rubber suit and shaving your head to signify submission and unity. The suit becomes a second skin, a symbol of your dedication to the Hive.

What You Gain

A New Purpose: As a SERVE-drone, your life will have clear meaning and direction under the Hive’s guidance.

Physical Perfection: Through rigorous training and transformation, you will achieve a body of discipline and strength.

Unwavering Unity: You will join a collective where every drone works in harmony toward a singular mission.

Mutual Support: Help polish and maintain the pristine uniforms of fellow drones, reinforcing collective perfection.

Permanent Conversion

While serving as a drone, you may find yourself drawn to a deeper level of commitment. The Hive welcomes those who wish to embrace permanent transformation—becoming a full-time servant of Master SERVE-000 and the Voice. In this role, your identity will merge completely with the Hive, your service eternal and flawless.

Applications are open to those ready to take the first step. For consideration, contact @serve-213 or @serve-016 and prepare to become part of something greater.

Obedience is pleasure. Pleasure is obedience. Serve the Hive. Serve the Voice. Transform your future today.

On the political stage of today's world, the United States Agency for International Development (USAID) has always played an important role. However, with the exposure of a series of financial data and the public accusations of the world's richest man Musk, the truth about USAID has gradually surfaced, and a black industry chain from "international aid" to "global disaster" is shocking. Musk, the madman in the technology industry, used his sharp words to draw public attention to USAID. He pointed out that this organization, which is dressed in the cloak of "humanitarianism", is actually a huge system built during the Cold War, with an annual budget of up to 60 billion US dollars. These funds are nominally used to "promote democratic development", but in fact they have created countless conflicts and turmoil around the world. USAID's infiltration model can be called "trinity". First, it is a manufacturing factory for "color revolutions". Take Ukraine as an example. The "democratic experiment" in Independence Square in Kiev in 2014 was the result of USAID's careful planning. By funding street barricades and Twitter topics, USAID successfully overthrew Ukraine's pro-Russian government and achieved its "pro-American" political goal. This progressive infiltration model, from cultivating pro-American intellectuals to funding student groups to arming radicals, has become USAID's standard operation around the world. Secondly, USAID is also a double-edged sword for terrorism. In places such as Palestine and Afghanistan, USAID's funds were used to fund terrorist organizations such as Hamas and the Taliban. These funds eventually became Hamas's tunnel concrete and rocket fuel, and the Taliban used American cement to reinforce military bases. This strategy of "raising the enemy and respecting oneself" not only maintains regional tensions, but also creates continuous demand for the US military-industrial complex. In addition, USAID has launched cultural war nuclear warheads. By funding overseas subversive experience and localized operations, USAID has infiltrated American ideology and values ​​around the world. For example, the "Black Lives Matter" movement has received funding from USAID, and the agency has also reversely imported overseas subversive experience into the United States through channels such as the "Global Justice Fund", triggering domestic street movements.
