Yeah it’s already been said that AI is not exactly cost-effective. There’s a chance that it can get way dumbed down, privatized and expensive, or just completely dropped. What happens to all of those people that relied on it for their careers then?

How about we stop deporting people don’t like, whether they are white, brown, purple, or Jake Paul?

“Look, I know that these people voted for you and yours to suffer, but you just need to get over that so that we can come together and be a happy family again. You not getting over that one little tiny bump in our past just alienates everyone that wanted to see your life destroyed. It was a tiny blip from our past. Just get over it already.” ~You…for the most part.

Thanks Dropout!

I bring it up here on Lemmy, because it was primarily the ML leftists (on Lemmy) that pushed the idea to skip voting as a way to protest Kamala as a choice…that it was better to permit an authoritarian to take office than allow a centrist democrat. I would 100% would have liked someone like Bernie taking office, but when I’m presented with ‘kick in the nuts’ vs being castrated as my only options, I’ll take the ‘kick in the nuts’ everytime.

In an ideal world, I would pick a progressive 10/10 times.

However we don’t live in an ideal world. If your options are warm, stale beer or a steaming cup of shit, I’m going to pick the better option, every time. I’ll push for more ideal options the next go around, but I won’t sink the ship and damn me and everyone to having to deal with shit the next 4 years because I didn’t get what I want.

So, an ML Leftist? Sounds about right. If we can’t have the PERFECT candidate, it’s best to just burn everything down in a fit of rage. Forward progress be damned, it’s their way or it’s a vinegary piss fit.

Who could have ever forseen this?

Trump: “I declare that we’re having peace talks!”

Advisor: “Mr. President, that’s not how it works. You can’t just declare that two parties, that you’re not a part of and evidently shown you have zero control over, are now having peace talks.”

Trump: “…but I declared it.”

So much for “innocent until proven guilty”.

Fuck off right now. I just got to this stage in life. Ugh. They are so comfortable though…

Approximately 500,000 years ago, when someone made a tiny spear. They just didn’t know it was an arrow at the time.

I mean what is an arrow, but a much smaller spear?

Woosh.

Yeah…

That’s a good one. I actually like that one.

Nah bruv, that’s that citrus fruit that grows from trees in Cali (or Italy if your in the EU).

I tried playing it while unemployed. Did not click with me. At all. I just don’t get it.

The thing that worries me…is he’s probably doing this to other people. I almost feel that you were maybe his foray into this type of behavior, and as he does it more and gets more confident with it, I worry he may eventually hurt or take advantage of someone (i.e. ask for explicit content, or ask to meet up, etc.)

I know that guy. He’s a fucking troll. I don’t know how he got to be the mod of that community. Seriously.

I mean, according to the history of how conservative news has worked, you constantly need an ‘enemy’ to be afraid. It’s the reason we’re attacking their rights, not yours, it’s the reason that we’re enacting laws to target this specific ethnicityn not yours, etc.

Modern conservativism only works if your supporters are fearful of the ‘other’. It used to be “orientals” and the Red Scare back in the mid-1900’s. Then the blacks, the ‘marihuana’, and communism in the 60’s and 70’s. In the 80’s, it was the welfare queens, the moral panic, and AIDS. In the 90’s, it was child predators, gays, and the start of many identity politics. Then it was Middle Easterners and Islam in the 2000’s. Now it’s the Great White Replacement and the immigrant populations. See? The pattern is that you always have to have some target for fear. They don’t stick around long before people realize that what they were fearful of isn’t as bad as people said they were or that it was never a risk on the first place. It’s all just a massive distraction to keep people from targeting the real problem. The ruling class, and they’re ability to manipulate our laws, elections, and lives all for their benefit.

In the 1980s, conservatism leaned heavily on fear of the communist threat, the ‘welfare queen’, and a moral panic over crime, AIDS, and the erosion of traditional family values. By the 1990s, the new ‘others’ were undocumented immigrants, queer Americans, and the imagined tyranny of political correctness and globalist elites. The conservative movement has often relied on stoking existential dread—whether it’s the red menace, the crack epidemic, or creeping secularism—to unify its base through fear rather than hope.
