No, we're describing a religion and what its followers behave like. Atheism isn't a religion or a group. It's a choice to refrain from belief in a god. Christianity has churches, pastors, and now presidents who lead their followers into morally reprehensible behavior. One is rotten fruit, the other is rejecting rotten fruit. It's not the same.
Yeah, that's why I said the religion is rotten. If I say an apple is rotten, people don't usually respond by saying "Yeah but it came from a cool tree".
I grew up around magats. They're going to interpret natural disasters as "the end times", which means if they survive they're God's special chosen people, and the people who die or suffer must not have had sincere faith and were living a life of sin.
These aren't the people who treat prayer as a sacred thing. They're the people who think prayer means telling God their wishlist or showing off their morality for others.
Today was the first time that it ever occurred to me that the US propaganda of "Hitler was the worst person who ever lived" might have been in part to cover up the US's own history of genocide.
Yes, that's also true. But even if it weren't, AI models aren't going to give you the truth, because that's not what the technology fundamentally does.
Your argument is basically "people are stupid", and I don't disagree with you. But it's actually an argument in favor of my point which is: educate people.
Anyone who understands that it's a statistical language algorithm will understand that it's not an honesty machine, nor intelligent. So yes, it's relevant.
"[Krebs is] under active investigation by law enforcement agencies. That is a fact disqualifying him for Global Entry."
Under investigation for supporting the integrity of US elections. For someone that the administration is actively opposing, Global Entry isn't just a convenience. Losing it means any time he crosses the border, he'll be subject to the whims of an administration that has proven that they don't respect due process. I'm sure Krebs is well-informed about his own security, but from my perspective this does seem a lot like "If we travel, we can probably will arrest you at the border".
"We're not going to uphold our previous security assurances, but here are some more security assurances, for real this time" seems like a play out of Russia's playbook.
