Why, because they spoke truth to those who didn't want to hear it?

This article is true and uniquely human in a way that is rare in the ai slop era.

Bob is a super dangerous sadboi puppygod. He's a confused, traumatized sweet-hearted disaster with floppy dark hair, bipolar disorder and abs that can destroy the world if he gets too sad, and no one cares about him... except YOU. The article speaks the truth.

And good for them! Whatever the gen-alpha equivalent of a Tumblr girl is, they need this.

This is an amazing shower thought.

Can you put this in any context? Because it seems to confirm what I've said: orthodox Jews were historically misaligned with liberal zionism. But the modern form of zionism is much closer to religious zionism, and the hosting of one of the most outspoken and fascistic expansionist Israeli leaders at the worldwide headquarters for the Chabad-Lubavitch sect seems to really remove a lot of ambiguity here.

It looked like a crowd of Chabadniks gathered around the Chabad global headquarters to violently terrorize anti-zionist protesters (or anyone they confused for protesters). I think you might just be operating on incomplete or outdated information about orthodox Jews and zionism.

I think you're confused.

First, I'm about 99% sure that was a crowd of young orthodox men. I saw a video, and it looked like your standard Crown Heights Haredi mob. It was also outside of the Chabad-Lubavitch headquarters.

Also, why do you think Orthodox Jews are anti-zionist? Historically I think they were in tactical disagreement with modern liberal Zionism as a project, but I think they've come around and are now among the most violent supporters of land theft, settler violence, and exterminationism.

If I'm missing something, let me know.

Oof. This is so fucking tragic.

I'm honestly surprised that Adams would actually investigate crimes committed by an Orthodox mob. That's his base.

We'll see.

I think the response depends on what your goal is.

I assume that you find it annoying? Or disrespectful? Is the issue impacting work at all, or do you just hate having to talk to them through this impersonal intermediary? I think if that's the case, the main remedy is to start by talking to them and telling them how you feel. If they want to use an LLM, fine, but they should at least try to disguise it better.

I think animal affection -- particularly for cute, non useful animals -- is an extension of our infant protection drive.

This is so painful to read. It's obvious genocide. This is a blatant campaign of extermination.

I was going to say that I'm pretty sure these exist and they're mostly run and attended by PhDs who love bluegrass music

Try a different instance.

I'm on slrpnk.net and it's all radical environmentalists.

Come for !memes@slrpnk.net, stay for !climate@slrpnk.net.

It's like half of NASA's entire budget.

From a risk mitigation perspective, this is a case of fighting the last war. We know the war that is coming: it's climate collapse. We don't need faster rockets, we need high speed rail.

$41M per missile? And 300 of them?

Sheeet. That's over ten billion dollars?

Am I mathing right? That's a lotta dough.

This article doesn't really live up to the headline.

I read to see why it's worse than it seems, and the reason given is that Tesla isn't competitive or popular.

That's not really worse than it appears. That's just as bad as it appears.

Which is really bad. But there's no second shoe in the article. I want my two minutes back.

The same ones listed in the article. Property ownership, speech, privacy, etc.

I feel like the rise of corporate personhood is the elephant in the room this article seems to avoid acknowledging.

I don't really know much about him, and I can't dispute your personal gut feeling. But I'm not familiar with anything that gives me this feeling.

For what it's worth, I think in general that if you say, "I just don't quite trust

<name>

Ah today's batch of fresh horrors has arrived.

Fucking hell. The courage of this person. That poem at the end nearly broke me.

Really the whole thing. I saw you explained what a 50" is, which helps. Additionally, though, it sounds like you're shocked by some element of the coverage. I wasn't clear if that was the case and if so by which part of the coverage you're specifically dismayed.

Can you state your central point?

Yeah: a failure to get away with it.

Last year the army arrested guards who raped Palestinian prisoners and protesters that included members of the Keneset rioted and stormed the prison (Sde Tieman).

There is no way anyone is getting held criminally accountable for this.

I apologize, but I don't know what this means.
