Yes, that is the generalization that the article pushed. It’s not true, because developers are not homogeneous. The point of my statement is “if you are a developer, ignore this because it is not true. You don’t have some sort of power that makes you immune to marketing. You’re just as susceptible as the rest of us, just in a different way. Ya know, like everyone else is”

Yeah, but maybe we don’t make that point on the statement that reminds people to be mindful of their beliefs and where they picked them up from. Feels like a thing that we should maybe encourage in people more, if anything.

I see what you’re saying, but I’m done talking about this. Your logic is circular at its base, so there’s nothing to talk about.

No, they aren’t. Any one who thinks they are is more susceptible.

Humans are social creatures, propaganda is a social contagion.

The only people who could be would be those with no ties to anyone. Kind of a nonstarter for the whole “cooperative survival strategy” that humans got going on.

Neither

Brass instruments require the buzzing of lips in addition to the air in order to work. Since most of the dolphin’s air comes out the blowhole, but that has no mechanism to vibrate like lips it’s impossible.

You are not immune to propaganda

This is an example of honkwiching

Here in the US, racists would break this. If you help one black person who “doesn’t deserve it”, then angry whites would rather shoot themselves in the eye than let the program stand. Well, that’s the angle that right-wing pundits use, anyway, and it’s shown to be effective time and time again.

The Nordic model is good, don’t get me wrong, but it’s not ambitious enough to set as a target. Plus, by being a real thing rather than an aspiration, people will look at the real flaws in the system as proof that it isn’t viable elsewhere. Ya know, like the xenophobia that people point to as the secret sauce of the Nordic model (not saying they’re right, just pointing it out as an example).

Creating a holistic vision of a future you want and the steps needed to be taken to get there will get far more results than pointing to real but flawed existing systems that can be attacked for being “imperfect”.

“The degayening ray. I can dodge this”

He could not

Black people don’t hang themselves. To do so is to inflict the fear of a lynching on your loved ones and community. So if you hear that a black person committed suicide by hanging, assume lynching.

Dunning-kruger is probably not an actual thing. It just conforms to our biases.

Did you know that there weren’t reparations for the apartheid in South Africa? White settlers still have the lion’s share of wealth they stole. Isn’t that fun?

Gonna go out on a limb and say capitalism won’t fix itself if it suddenly looked further ahead. Probably the opposite.

The only trek species that has to learn a language to interact with The Federation would be the Tamarians, since theirs is the only language that completely defeated the universal translator (they speak in metaphor, instead of directly)

“semi”-automatic gunfire sounds

“Hey fascist, catch”, including the arrows that make up the rest of the quote, are a quote from Helldivers 2. Not exactly a smoking gun

This is far too stylized for ai. Don’t accuse without cause (an additional, proportional finger, isn’t cause. People can make mistakes)

Writing stupid shit on killing devices is a groyper signature thing. Cause why the fuck would you sign the goddamn crime things?

Same with Annunciation shooting as well. If you hear “they signed the casings” and the sayings aren’t related to the victim (like the Thompson “Deny, Defend, Depose”) then it’s probably a groyper
