Newsflash you PB jackass, workers haven't owned the fruits of their labour the entire time. I do creative work as a wage labourer and I don't own shit of the output I produce. Artists can suck a fat one if they think they can get out of being proletarianised like all the rest of us.
Sounds like national chauvinism, the idea that Americans need more luxury goods than everyone else, and that there's no way no how you'd ever lower your already completely "fair" level of consumption.
You use more electricity streaming an episode of a HD netflix show than generating like 100 text prompts. Image generation is also way less costly than streaming.
The only really costly thing with LLMs is the training stage.
Fucking get a grip, women have had to deal with way more shit historically and contemporarilly and haven't become shit heel fascists and bigots. This is male supremacists upset at their power slipping away from them, and yearning to take a firm hand of the whip.
Women get raped and harassed, men get the weepies for not being able to fuck or get a job, turning them into fascist little hitlerites. Get a fucking grip.
Now break that shit down per capita, and also try and account for the fact that China is a huge manufacturing hub for the entire world's consumption, you jackass.
Having worked in NHSE during the initial contracts given to Palantir, in data analytics, no one below SLT gave a shit about what Palantir were producing and never engaged with it. But the higher-ups? The only drips that gave them the time of day. Some much more enthusiastically than others.
There is a case of wipe your own ass first, western nations are infinitely more complicit in this shit than China is. At the end of the day removed about China generates consent internally in the imperial core to never normalise relationships and to keep pressing toward cold war shit.
But the USSR recreated the nation states that made up imperial Russia and gave them full rights to secede, have their affairs conducted in their own language etc. Russia used to be one big blob before the USSR split it into many socialist republics.
We will help bomb children in Palestine and blow up Yemen for trying to stop "Israel", but draw the line at "credible" evidence of slave labour in China from Radio Free Asia and Adrian Zenz. Fucking joke of a country.
Organising does not equal joining any party. Organising can also be starting your own study group that keeps in close contact with other orgs with the hopes of eventually linking up with either other study groups or merging with an existing party once everyone has hashed out a solid set of red lines for collaboration.
