I understand
Let me put on my strategist hat
Okay, I have a plan. We should convince each and every one of those 93,000,000 people to change what they'll accept, because convincing each and every one of 2 people to change what they'll offer is unacceptable and way too much work. I am very smart.

Driving me crazy that a lot of very smart people aren't entertaining the idea that the **AI might kill us all** narrative is kabuki theater -- orchestrated by some of the world's richest people, whose net worth is tied up in people believing their technology is just on the cusp of super intelligence

May be controversial but it is a million times more pessimistic to believe things won't get better than to believe things aren't good now.

the big AI danger is not companies suddenly inventing skynet - that's marketing rubbish, musk promising mars colonies by 2030 type stuff. the danger is companies claiming to have invented skynet and then putting what they actually have, a chatbot, in charge of stuff that's important

Ken Paxton is saying Texans need to take a deeper look at the background of the candidates, which is why he's encouraging everyone to Google "Ken Paxton indictments" and "Ken Paxton divorce" and "Ken Paxton pedophile" to see that he has absolutely nothing to be ashamed of
Ken Paxton on James Talarico: “This guy has not been exposed for his record of eight years. The media doesn't cover it…Once we have the resources to expose his views, there's no way he's going to win Texas.”

Always a good time to remind people that this airstrike is what made Nancy Pelosi finally call on Biden to suspend offensive weapons shipments to Israel and Biden ignored it
The Israeli commander who personally ordered the airstrikes on seven World Central Kitchen workers who were murdered in cold blood says that he is not sorry and falsely claims that the WCK has ties to Hamas.
WCK is "not really an organisation you can say is innocent."

Shocking: Mike Rogers does what Mike Rogers has been doing since before I was born
Before Mike Rogers flip-flopped on data centers, he was telling Michigan to “lead the charge” on AI and said communities might ask for two. We explored his many positions on data centers. www.metrotimes.com/news/mike-ro...

A recent survey found that 92% of U.S. adults have delayed or avoided medical care due to high costs.
Meanwhile, a new study from Yale estimates that Medicare for All would save over 114,000 lives and $1 trillion a year.
If this country was truly “pro-life,” we would have universal healthcare.

Wait so the position presented as "moderate" by the people who want "moderate" to mean "don't actually change anything that matters" appealed to a nonexistent mythical person and not to the people who call themselves moderate? Who could have possibly known?
NEW poll in 18 toss-up districts (with a sample that voted Trump 48-45) shows independents & moderates are *not* looking for the archetypical Moderate candidate — and are not dissuaded if outsiders are labeled too far left.
Strong support for Israel was the *least* appealing quality in a candidate.
