Microsoft shouldn’t be getting away with the pay model change. Especially after duping Enterprise into providing all of their sensitive information with these “security” arrangements they made to make copilot attractive to enterprise/commercial

On a side note, if you don’t think that Microsoft is actively parsing all of this data they claim to be secured in “safe environments”, you’re a fool. That’s a conversation for another day.

I work at a subsidiary to one of the largest insurance brokerages in the world, I was hired relatively recently. At first I was dismissive of copilot, but due to security rules at my company, I’m unable to use any other AI platforms with work data. So I learned co-pilot and realized that Microsoft was actually building something useful for enterprise, especially with the automation/cowork/scout plans on the horizon.

I’m in the office telling all of the boomers (no disrespect) in my office, who would otherwise never use AI - about how useful it is, and how I can use cowork and agent publishing to automate a ton of the menial tasks we do on the day to day - slowly getting confidence from the older crowd of our office about how AI can actually be beneficial to them (just the excel, word, outlook, PowerPoint integration was blowing their minds) and I hadn’t even shown them the real meat and potatoes.

My next step was showing them the real power through co-work, but now how do I approach management and tell them “yeah the whole pricing scheme of subscription is over starting this month, it’s subscription + metered usage billing, and will vary user to user”

None of these people, especially the older crowd are going to give this a serious chance now - and I don’t blame them.

Microsoft clearly made it their mission to co-opt commercial/enterprise, heavily subsidized to create the facade that these offering are sustainable, and the moment these major players start plugging in their sensitive data, connecting API’s and integrating their systems into their network - they 10x (or more) the price.

Seems like a scam to me, thoughts?

TL;DR - The shooters manifesto is a means to offload a specific ideological framework that was formed and created by far-right Nazi accelerationists who have infiltrated incel subculture. The framing of specific talking points - genetic determinism, misogyny and the focus on “capital” and “elite class” (bourgeoisie in this manifesto) is what gives it away.

Do not be fooled by the “communist motivations” portrayal from media at the moment. Irony-poisoning is meant to confuse the reader on ideological consistency, while still getting across the radical agenda points across.

Neo Nazis are largely anti capitalist at the extreme end -

“Within the neo-Nazi movement, Third Positionists argue that modern capitalism exploits the working class, enriches global financial elites, and erodes racial/national identity, advocating instead for an ethnically homogeneous society supported by a nationalized or heavily regulated economy.”

These Neo-Nazi Accelerationists operate by curating manifestos that are purposely made to confuse the reader, incorporating various different irony-pilled ideological elements to distract from the real motivation. When you compare the framing in this manifesto to others, the ideological consistency is clearly visible.

Unfortunately there is a lot of context that I can’t lay out for you in a singular reddit thread. I investigate radical internet ecosystems and have specifically been investigating a decentralized network of Neo-Nazis that have been using the internet to recruit and radicalize.

Neo-Nazi accelerationism, learn what it is.

Learn how they co-opt Incel and Nihilist online spaces to recruit individuals into mass acts of violence.

This attack is a copy-cat attack meant to spread the framing of the manifestos contents - similar attacks -

Brenton Tarrant — Christchurch mosque shootings (New Zealand), March 15, 2019 — 51 deaths.

Patrick Crusius — El Paso Walmart shooting (Texas, USA), August 3, 2019 — 23 deaths.

Robert Bowers — Pittsburgh Tree of Life synagogue shooting (Pennsylvania, USA), October 27, 2018 — 11 deaths

Payton Gendron — Buffalo Tops supermarket shooting (New York, USA), May 14, 2022 — 10 deaths. en.wikipedia.org

Dylann Roof — Charleston church shooting (South Carolina, USA), June 17, 2015 — 9 deaths (retroactively glorified as a “Saint”). en.wikipedia.org

For further context, a few months ago I created a thread showing these same Neo-Nazi accelerationists attempting to hi-jack the cognitive and genetic research fields, being funded by billionaires who also subscribe to this Neo-Nazi accelerationist framework.

That thread is linked below and got great reception in r/cognitivescience, so I’m hoping you can use the legitimacy of what I claimed in that thread and give my post here some trust.

To sum it up,

Much of the “race science” and “women are causing our extinction” pseudo-science being propagated on the mainstream web right now, can be attributed to the network I expose in that thread.

These individuals are connected to a broader, decentralized network of accelerationists who are attempting to dissolve global social cohesion. The point is to radicalize swathes of men, specifically young white men, into perceiving women/jews/minorities as the enemy.

Inceldom is simply a moniker to co-opt, and incel spaces are prime recruiting grounds for these accelerationists. Indirectly or directly brainwashing and radicalizing just through exposure of the rhetoric.

Hundreds of decentralized, online nodes that subscribe to a specific ideological doctrine. All with different ways of how they try to propagate the ideology.

The manifestos of these shootings typically have a consistent doctrine.

If you look at the root of the messaging across the dozens of manifestos and connected shootings -

- Great replacement propaganda
- Hatred for women
- Hatred for Jews
- Distaste for minorities/non-whites
- societal blame
- genetic determinism/“race realism”

and so on.

The idea behind these attacks is to ensure widespread attention to these texts - but what many people don’t realize is that these manifestos are largely plagiarized from early internet Neo-Nazi forums. These copy-cat like attackers are just perpetuating propaganda that was curated online decades ago, repackaged over the years.

All of the framing is literal Nazi ideology meant to radicalize the reader. The framing is supposed to be convincing to specifically young depressed men.

Here is a study showing how Breiviks and Gendrons manifestos were essentially copy paste from sites like Stormfront (early internet Nazi forum)

The San Diego Mosque shooting a couple weeks back was the exact same thing, except it was children who were caught up in this pipeline.

I just want to get this out there before people run with the “he was just an incel angry at women!”. It’s so much deeper than that.

Is commercial/Enterprise just going to stand idle as Microsoft tries to rob their users blind?

The shooter wasn’t just radicalized by incel culture, there is an online eco-system being cultivated by Neo-Nazi accelerationists who radicalize depressed men into mass acts of violence.
