I get what you mean but without sufficient sources of renewable energy - which do not exist right now and cannot be expanded without exploitation of miners (including children) in the Congo and elsewhere - there’s no way this technology can benefit us in a net sense. Summaries of messages we read anyway and uncanny simulations of celebrities eating pasta will never offset the damage inherently caused to the natural world by the energy consumed by the slop machine.
Like there are no ethical billionaires, there’s no ethical generative AI (except for early-development-stage medical / science stuff like protein combinations or cancer diagnoses, though I think the cancer-detecting AI is way older than current gen AI)

Same, Honda CRZ (it’s like a Prius but it doesnt make you hate yourself) and I dont have any delay on quick-starting the engine.
It’s a hybrid but the electric part is just KERS, so I only fuel it up, I don’t charge it.

Weird how many videos I’ve seen of German police beating anti-genocide protestors and British police arresting seniors for expressing anti-genocide opinions. Maybe that was just an American psyop.
White supremacy is the problem, and America may have the worst case of that, but certainly not the only case.

Cops basically exist to prevent people from taking revenge into their own hands.
No, cops exist to protect capital.
This is just one example too, they’ve issued multiple similar rulings. Also, uh, see: Uvalde.
If there were no cops, do you think these white “Karens” would just leave the black men alone? Or do you think they’d get together and lynch them?
…you think cops keep black people safe? Are you being remotely serious here?

We need to work on our social sciences before any other science can bring anyone real benefit anymore…
Well said. I have associate degrees only in Bio/Chem, and I was going to keep going but… why? To work for an evil pharmaceutical company? To work in the shitty corporate cannabis industry? To advise rich assholes on how to cut down our national forests in a way which makes it appear like it’s not the end of the world?
The only STEM career I’ve found which seems guaranteed to be ethical is the people who do wildlife surveys, finding endangered bees and whatnot to block bullshit luxury real estate. But going through all that education to aim for a single, specific, probably-not-very-common position doesn’t seem very smart.

There’s also, at least for Spanish but probably for other languages too, a significant difference between the academic version and the colloquial version.
I assume it’s sort of like if you, as an English speaker, only spoke as if you were composing a college essay.

The point I was making:
No.
You are saying that you depend on the left in order to win. In politics, that’s called leverage. The onus is on your party to run a candidate we find acceptable and behave in such a way that we reasonably believe they may uphold their campaign promises. Failing that, we do not care if your genocidal, oligarch-and-Zionazi-owned party wins or loses. You may view them as the lesser evil; that doesn’t matter to people like me who view them as equally evil. You can argue on Lemmy and Threads and Bluesky all day, it won’t change the minds of people who have seen what the Democrats are and what they support. You can win an election by meeting our demands, or you can keep losing. We owe you nothing and have no interest in your success otherwise.

Unfortunately I think the really brutal and sad reality is that they view the inconveniences / discrimination / etc they have been subjected to - or honestly more often, hypothetically could be subject to - as taking precedence over the actual murder of tens of thousands of brown people overseas.
They don’t think of it that way consciously and they’ll get angry and go into cognitive dissonance mode if you point it out, but voting for Dem or Republican requires one flavor or another of white supremacy imo. Or at least prioritizing the damages caused by white supremacy below their own personal priorities.

I’m doing a secret third thing: voting for someone who isn’t evil.

Agreed and same. I think Luigi was morally correct but I personally value my life and freedom. I accept that’s selfish and cowardly to a degree, but I also recognize I’m an animal who wants to reproduce someday and not die before then (or too early after).

There were tens, if not hundreds, of thousands of Renee Goods murdered in Palestine with Biden’s help.
Miss me with that Blue MAGA weaponization of martyrs to further the goals of your preferred imperialist dogs. Disgusting.
I don’t vote for genocidaires. I don’t vote for imperialists. Period, no exceptions.

This picture might make sense if not for the reality that quantifiably more people died in Palestine during Joe Biden’s term than during Donald Trump’s.
They are both fascist Zionazi shitstains, errors in our species, to be clear, but just saying, Blue MAGA is as out of touch with reality as regular MAGA is.
- Comment on American workers are tired of waiting. 1 month ago:
Same.
Can’t say the same about when I was duped into voting for Genocide Joe, though.
- Comment on American workers are tired of waiting. 1 month ago:
In politics in general, sure.
In American electoral politics, tell that to the massive grassroots support of Bernie Sanders who were disenfranchised by the DNC, who argued in court (successfully) that they could “go into back rooms like they used to and smoke cigars and pick the candidate that way” if they wanted to while defending the reality that they showed a clear bias (read: rigged the primaries) against the people’s candidate in favor of the corporate candidate.
The DNC is a rotten corpse that some people insist on continuing to provide mouth-to-mouth to.
- Comment on American workers are tired of waiting. 1 month ago:
I’m not voting for either oligarch-and-Zionazi-owned party.
If that’s the price of maintaining our plutocracy which we call “democracy” for some reason, I refuse. Too expensive. Not getting my name. Won’t stop them, but not getting my name to endorse your evil, Blue MAGA.

Ask the indigenous people of America whether they feel the military liberated them, now or 80 years ago or 200.
America knocked down the fascists because they fucked with us, we were quite content to let them conquer Europe and Asia before that. You’re promoting American exceptionalism mythology.
And even then it was the Russians who actually defeated the Nazis.

Not to feed the American billionaires who are currently actively ruining my life and the life of all those who I love. Chinese billionaires are certainly no friend of the working class, but again, “lesser evil” is the game when it comes to consumption (unless you can buy used). The CCP literally disappeared Jack Ma for a few months last time he stepped out of line lol (and the CCP is also no friend of mine, to be clear, but is also absolutely less evil than my country)
