  • Theyll vote down a Californian even faster, "MUH DRUG NEEDLES ON THE STREET, MILLION COST OF LIVING", those will be the headlines for the four months before they turn into Magat pravda

  • Its really not, because you gotta figure for hiring campaign staff, all the politicing behind the scenes, it SHOULD be as simple as run someone now and work that out later. But the Dems in charge think they'll sruvive a second Traitor Trump term just as strongly and incorrectly as moderate voters

  • I posted this in a thread, but Im gonna make it a parent comment for those who support this bill.

    Consider youtube poop, Im serious. Every clip in them is sourced from preexisting audio and video, and mixed or distorted in a comedic format. You could make an AI to make youtube poops using those same clips and other "poops" as training data. What it outputs might be of lower quality (less funny), but in a technical sense it would be made in an identical fashion. And, to the chagrin of Disney, Nintendo, and Viacom, these are considered legally distinct entities; because I dont watch Frying Nemo in place of Finding Nemo. So why would it be any different when an AI makes it?

  • What of the images random people generate from software like dall e? Those are made from the same training data, and what this poicy does to them is make media creation more inaccessible even though the technology exists. Also, copying a book word for word by hand isnt/wasnt plagarism, its unlicensed duplication. Plagarism would be changing just the proper nouns and pretending like its a completely seperate book

  • This, exactly. AI is generating new images. Oh whoop de do, they did it by mixing a bunch of pixels. As though making an image out of tiny photos isnt literally the same thing and considered transformative. People just have a double standard about a program instead of a person doing it. (Except for that subset kd online artists, they're just bezerk about copyright and credit in general)

  • Most everyone from corporations to tumblr artists will be opting into that. While it doesnt guarantee an information dystopia, it does enable it

    I download images from the internet and remove watermarks to edit them in youtube videos as visual aid. I add a credit to the description because Im not a cunt, I just do it to make the video look better. I dont monetize content. Utterly and totally harmless, and would be illegal with such a label

  • Because the reason all third parties fail is that the first-past-the-post counting of votes makes it mathematically impossible. A third party will necessarily steal more votes from one side than the other, making said other side win

  • A fascist first world is easier for Russia and China than a free one

  • You say that like I wouldn't jist discipline and/or disown them for it

  • Be a better day when his heart finally kills him

  • Precisely. The "Originalism" of the court- backward as it would be- isnt even that. Its a front to sell out federal policy to the highest bidder. Because its not enough to live in Gilead, they have to fuse it with Night City too.

  • You understand these people arent going to stop at federalism, yes? Please take a look at Project 2025. They want to force their own values onto the majority at the federal level, and our ancient electoral system will enable them to do so. And even if they did, that would still be condemning the populations of their own states to repression

  • Fun times ahead!

  • Because what you are saying is still making that more likely. The right are gonna fall in line, we NEED to be able to do the same

  • Youre missing the point. Whether or not that was actually the intention is completely irrelevant in the modern day, because only fascist assholes actually want to go back

  • Most of us dont wanna live in the 1800s though, and how can any government be of the people if it disregards what the people want
