Something that gets old to deal with is that Leftists of any stripe are treated with 'collectivist guilt' for every wrong (whether real or imagined) that every other Leftist has ever done ever.

Yet the Right is given 'individualist blame' and people refuse to look at systematic things the Right...
My tuppence on this is that this whole 'transplant' discourse is exactly the shit that Gilbert and Sullivan in "The Mikado" is still 101% applicable to modern life without any changes needed whatsoever. Their commentary fits flawlessly even now.

It's very funny that so many average people, not in any position in the media or politics, feel the need to volunteer unprompted that they are willing to sacrifice the rights or lives of a particular group of people. Thanks man. Thanks for letting us know.

It's proof the government could always 'move fast' if it wanted. And we actually see examples of that, but it always 'moved fast' for awful shit, like say, Flock cameras going up everywhere, but NEVER moved for something like...green energy. Funny how that works, ain't it?

Trump's lines about AI isn't just cuz he has money involved, but like any narcissist, when they feel like they aren't in control of things, they search for something to give them that control, no matter how real or illusory it is. On the flip, like any dictator, he also hates we can talk back to him

Dear Democrats,

You don't have to be perfectly fair and nuanced about the cost/benefits of data centers, or AI, or Flock cameras.

You can just demagogue the ever-loving shit out of *all* of it.

Thank you for your attention to this matter.

Democrats Should Demagogue AI. Seriously.
The politics of data centers, Flock cameras, and runaway tech could hardly be clearer.

A lot of people really have no idea what's coming with the energy crisis in the coming months. A lot of the crisis from the start of the war were postponed but those tricks can no longer work. We're about to see the worst energy crisis in 50 years.

I was just a kid when 9/11 happened.

Despite that, even to this day, I could tell you exactly where I was: The building, the room, the seat I was sitting in, and how I had to turn to look at the TV to watch what was happening.

I remember nothing else about that day, but that part, never left me.

One thing that seriously sucks about being disabled is my own self-hatred at 'failing' to do normal things. Like cleaning my place.

Mostly anything that requires 'bending over' or getting down. I can go down, but God only knows if I'm gonna (safely) be able to stand back up.

The proto-Effin’ Birds was my Tumblr “Swear Trek”. It opened a lot of doors for me and I wouldn’t be where I am today without it. I don’t have plans to revive it (one daily comic is enough work), just wanted to thank it for getting me here on this 60th anniversary of Star Trek.

"Conservatives" are to pedophiles what liberals are to racists.

"Conservatives" decide which pedophiles to exempt from criticism.

Never forget they say/do this stupid shit because they want to justify their real goals. Oh sure they hate trans kids and want to make the 'potty police' a thing, but they hate public schools even more, and see this as a wedge to abolish them and move everyone into (segregated) private schools.

There's criticisms and critiques that can be made of Islam, and Muslim-majority countries.

But those countries...are *over there*. I have to deal with Christian Nationalists in the USA *here*...today, right now.

Of course we know they only say "Islam Islam Islam!" to deflect from their own BS.

BS like this is why no one should ever trust a single soul in Big Tech, no matter *who* it is: Social media, game devs, music, AI, executives of these companies.

Trust none of em. Because they're all in the Big Tech 'club' and the rest of us aren't, and they'll always side with their own over us.

If buying isn't owning, then piracy isn't theft. Can't steal what can't actually be 'taken' then.

And all the DRM in the world just makes the people who do "buy" these hate you more because inevitably the DRM ends up causing more issues than it solves and people still pirate them.

Simple as.

The Butlerian Jihad didn't happen because of 'AI'. It happened because 'men with thinking machines enslaved us'.

'AI' is the tool, the 'men' who financed/built the AI and are forcing it down out throats, are the real problem.

I'm not a DSA member, but I DO remember when DSA was seen as a joke by the establishment, with pie-in-the-sky ideas that were totally unelectable.

Then the *second* DSA members start winning they've now magically turned into the biggest threat in decades to the political establishment.

"Bipartisanship" works when hyper-partisanship and corruption aren't through the roof, and both of those are things that've been RW projects for decades. Not to mention said corruption was also done with the intent of ousting any RWs who'd tell billionaires/corps/etc "No" with hard-line sycophants.

Every online chud/RW "critique" of Leftists always boils down to, "Why don't they just stop being Leftists and/or pander to me specifically? If they don't, then obviously they're stupid and deserve to lose."

More proof that no matter how much you cave to the Right, it's *never* enough for them. All the 'punching Left' means nothing when they hate you as well and see you as just more Leftists to go after and silence.

Doubt any lessons will be learned. Anti-Left hate blinds these types far too much.
