Fair, I can't argue that's a good lens to view this through. I can only hope these people's message actually get some people to wake up.
But that pessimism didn't just appear. There's a reason, and I'm my opinion a good one, for it. I think we're long overdue for a political overhaul. Though I'm probably just preaching to the choir.
I think expecting Democratic Senators to vote no on things like the Laken Riley Act or Democratic Judges to not sign bogus warrants to arrest Gaza protesters should be a bare minimum expectation.
Them not even being able to do that " keeps people down on the Democrats."
4chan jokes they should pretend the okay hand sign is a white supremacist dog whistle to trigger libs.
They do and it works.
Online shitters who's whole personality is "triggering sjw's" pick up on this and perpetuate the joke to continue to trigger people.
Basically people getting mad at a joke caused it to become a real thing to some degree. While not a supremacist symbol it was heavily used by them for a time.
I agree, but courts have been partisan for a while. See judge Cannon's handling of Trumps documents case and the supreme Courts handling of his freaking insurrection.
I understand the way things are supposed to be. But it's not the way they are. Courts are going to have to decide which side of history they are on.
Fascists are good at using the fact that their opponents need to uphold the law against them.
Your comment is correct as much as I hate it. But to the quoted portion, their opponents don't need to. They choose to. And it drives me insane that they think that we can operate within the system the fascists are actively ignoring to fix this. The "normal way" things are done is gone, it's time to stand firm and take action.
Actually no, details don't matter! Women's suffrage ran on the idea they deserved the right to vote. They didn't start out demanding a constitutional amendment specifically and immediately 😀. The civil rights movement didn't detail how to repeal Jim Crow laws and last out step by step how to integrate the black community . Please read a book, educate yourself on how change occurs instead of constantly saying it can't happen and doing your best to make it so (by doing nothing). The idea that you need a step by step plan to fix injustice or it's not possible is insane.
Edit: also, until you get the least bit of education, I can't engage with you any further. You're utterly exhausting, sorry!
Sure! Continue to get active in our communities, create support networks, and once you get enough supporters strike until change is implemented. That's just a non-violent option too.
If you'd like to learn more about things being "impossible" and still changing, maybe read a history book! Civil rights, women's suffrage, and the rise of the AFL are great starting points.
Why are news outlets reporting on what some hallucinating AI says? To legitimize it. As people use it more they'll become more reliant on it. It'll be no different than, "just Google it "
But they aren't only going to do this to make a profit. It's more than that. It's about controlling the flow of information. Once people are reliant on it they'll adjust algorithms and black list information that doesn't benefit them.
Legitimately AI is trying to position itself to control information and by extension the realities of its users. And that is priceless.
My example, however, is specifically something that is "not possible," that is occurring in the very system that you are insisting is "not possible" to change.
There's literally no way to send someone on American soil to El Salvador without due process. Check the Constitution if you think I'm lying. Still happened.
Stop pretending we have to work within the system as if the system works for us.
