  • I saw recently that a contributing factor to solidifying the the Orthodox/Catholic schizm was that when Crusaders passed through Constantinople on their way to Jerusalem, they were a bunch of filthy Western rednecks, and everyone was horrified by how terrible they were.

  • That's what I almost titled this post.

  • welcome back to 2003

  • It's not. That was the 90s, early 2000s were full of just super trashy looks and women acting dumb due to overt misogyny being a cornerstone of most popular media at the time.

  • Hey, did you see that episode of South Park a few months ago? Super funny.

    The reason why the US president loves McDonald's so much is simply because he's a world-class narcissist and it sounds like it's named after him. That's it.

  • He actually has a number of weird idiosyncratic tendencies, and the consistency and randomness of getting something pre-made means no one can spit in your food.

    Also, he's old enough that McDonalds used to be good during his impressionable years. Maybe the "Donald" part helped, but it's a bigger mental issue than just the name.

  • Just saw a headline that Trump pushed this through already.

  • Including domestic mass surveillance on their own engineers.

    That's the bonkers thing to me. At least someone at Anthropic had the wherewithal to say "wait...are be building a thing to spy on ourselves at home 24/7?" OpenAI was so thirsty. "Spy on me, Daddy! Watch my every move, let me show you how!"

  • So, time to boycott ChatGPT now that it's officially part of a domestic mass surveillance system?

    Not that I wasn't before, i just want the credit.

  • As usual, for entirely batshit crazy irrational reasons. These are the same people who prior to 9/11 worried about the "New World Oder" and UN Agenda 21 meaning that French troops in blue helmets would go door to door and take guns away from Americans. If there was a Polymarket back then, how many of these people would have bet their life savings every year on that outcome and been wrong every. single. time. And kept on betting on it year after year.

    Then after the Patriot Act created DHS, FEMA became the boogeyman because it would be the conduit for executing emergency powers, and 9/11 was the first national emergency in the lives of most conspiracy nuts. Sort of like how ICE is the specific agency under DHS murdering people, DHS, other than PuppyKiller herself, is largely removed from the day-to-day operations of sub-agencies. I imagine there was also a certain racist stripe of "yes, we want homeland security....from brown people. Keep doing anything you want to them, that's fine." Then the discordant wish to not let FEMA get some Deep State cancer and Obama put all the Good Ol' Boys in camps. Functionally, it makes no sense, but the same people think the President is a King or God, so who fucking knows.

    Structurally, there was a basis in fact only so far as "this agency does things during emergencies." Past that, it's all to sell newsletters and books and tacticool powdered eggs. Combined with the fact that any new agency created in the US government immediately gets populated by idiots that wouldn't get promoted if they stayed somewhere else, DHS and FEMA have consistently demonstrated significant ineptitude and being too slow-moving to do much in the way of dealing with an actual emergency. Under DHS, maaaybe CISA and the Coast Guard are/were competent and that's about it. Meaning that anyone seriously fearing conspiracy-style "FEMA camps" for their NWO national roundup would have 6-18 months of lead time to know the camps are being built (poorly by the highest bidder) and maybe never even get done due to cost overruns.

    Thank you for coming to my TED talk about Classic Conspiracy Nuts and you.

  • Yeah, I looked at myself and one data broker that either I missed or hasn't honored my takedown request lists my political affiliation for a state where that's public info.

    That's free info to scrape where available. No need to waste LLM subscriptions on it.
