You think giving notice DOESN'T make it okay?

Israel has found a way of destroying terrorists headquarters without injuring the civilians that Hamas is using as human shields.

In the history of the WORLD has any country every bent over backwards this much?

And you guys wonder why both Republicans and Democrats overwhelming ignore your criticisms? It's because your position isn't a serious one.

The anti-Israel don't care that Israel is bending over backwards to minimize human suffering while fighting a decades long war against people who are deliberately trying to kill their children.

Remember how upset they are when Israel does something 100 percent defensive, like build a security fence to keep out an endless stream of suicide bombers?

This isn't good-faith criticism.

These people hate Israel for this that they works be applauding other countries for. And we all know why.

Are you serious NOT defending a country that does that? That goes out of their way to destroy terrorist infrastructure while taking extraordinary steps to give civilians time to evacuate, necessarily letting terrorists themselves flee to go kill Israelis again, because that's what it takes to protect innocent lives?!

You're NOT defending that country?

Why the fuck not. That's insane.

My friend, these anti-Israel zealots won't be happy unless Israel just rolls over and lets Hamas kill Jews without consequence.

The anti-Israel crowd thinkd Israel is the devil of it fights back.

They think Israel is the devil, if, as you mentioned, they call buildings ahead of time, and give people time to evacuate, before Israel bombs terrorist. Headquarters, because I guess they think Palestinian buildings are more important than Israeli lives.

They think Israel is the devil if they build a security fence to keep our suicide bombers.

Mostly they think Israel is the devil because Israel offered the most general peace deal in history, but refuse to give Palestinian's the Right of Return, which would have allowed Palestinians to claim voting rights, and literally vote to turn Israel into an anti-Jewish theocracy.

Now... Most of the people HERE haven't the foggiest clue about any of that. And if you talked them through the situation and the options, they'd understand that Israel does not now, nor have they ever had a partner on the Palestinian side with which to make peace. They want Israel gone, full stop. And you can't make peace with people who believe in literally no situations in which you still exist at the end.

Israel, on the other hand has showed throughout it's history that it will do extraordinary things for peace. They gave up land for peace with Egypt. They have offered extraordinary concessions.

But the people who really needed to read this downvoted me in the first paragraph and are already typing a rant.

You mean like both-sides'ing a liberal democracy and a terrorist organization? That sort of thing?

As I said, if you're not scared shitless, you really don't understand what gpt-4 can do.

It's not "just another tool."

It's an intelligence.

This technology is more world-changing than computers, the Internet, or mobile technology. And it's evolving faster than any of those things did.

You'll see. Unfortunately.

I feel sorry for these folks. They have no idea what's about to happen.

It's so much worse than that.

In the entire history of the world, no one has EVER been able to deprogram a fascist cult of this size.

In all of human history, across all times and cultures, the only way these people have ever been defeated was through bloody conflict.

Remember, as much as you despise them bigotry, cruelty to immigrants and minorities, willful ignorance, taking away women's rights, keeping us from affordable healthcare, siding with our enemies, etc,etc ... They hate you JUST AS MUCH for entirely fictional grievances. They LITERALLY BELIEVE that Democrats are baby-killing pedophiles. They LITERALLY BELIEVE that the deep state is a real thing, and that it's acting against them.

The Q-ANON insanity is TRUTH to a huge portion of these absolute morons.

This is just the smallest tip of the iceberg.

I've been working with gpt-4 since the week it came out, and I guarantee you that even if it never became any more advanced, it could already put at least 30% of the white collar workforce out of business.

The only reason it hasn't is because companies have barely started to comprehend what it can do.

Within 5 years the entire world will have been revolutionized by this technology. Jobs will evaporate faster than anyone is talking about.

If you're very smart, and you begin to use gpt-4 to write the tools that will replace you, then you MIGHT have 10 good years left in this economy before humans are all but obsolete.

If you're not staying up nights, scared shitless by what's coming, it's because you don't really understand what gpt-4 can do.

False narrative.

We have less than a dozen morons here. They don't represent anyone but themselves.

Meanwhile we have entire factions of the Republican party at war with themselves from the Lincoln Project to the infighting in the House just this week.

The left has always had its share of morons.

Well-meaning morons, but morons nonetheless.

The issue is that the centrist and right wing media latch on to the narrative of these fringe weirdos and pretend that they represent the entirety of the left wing, even though there are WAY MORE lefties who find them disdainful.

Can you even imagine the Democrats worshipping a candidate who was found liable for rape, liable for fraud, and who was out on bail for several incredibly serious crimes, for which there is overwhelming evidence of his guilt on the public record?

Republicans are disgusting. They are a cancer. The whole party is full of the most anti-American, anti-basic-decency traitors the world has ever seen.

Yeah. It was the weakest writing in the show's history, including the entire Lore introduction.

Bullshit. This trial has been a campaign spectacle. It continues to be.

Ignoring reality doesn't make it so.

1. The Republicans would have this election totally locked up right now if it hasn't been for the supreme Court overturning Roe and cancelling student debt relief. They may have radicalized the left to come out in droves over these two things. Even then, it'll be a nail-biter.

The anti-Trump sentiment has lost it's urgency for some, and NO ONE is excited to vote for Biden. He's ancient, sounds low energy even at this most passionate. His policies are slightly left of center when it's great compared to the dead-center we all expected, but he's not even FIGHTING for anything we can all get excited about, let alone WINNING any fights.

The entire remainder of Biden's term is going to be a do-little presidency, because Republicans won't give him a win on anything.

2. Even if Republicans lose, we could see Insurrection 2: This time with guns.

So is lemmy just dead?

This post is the number 1 post when sorting by hot in the category ALL. It's been here an hour with ZERO comments?

Every other post in my feed is similar. What is happening?

... I mean ... No shit?

What on earth were they thinking with this article? "We talked to a couple dozen people"

So... You're giving us the same information any one of us could find on our Facebook feed?

This doesn't have even the relevancy of an formal survey.

What's the value in this? Is anyone shocked that with two wildly unpopular frontrunners in the upcoming election and an insurrection in our rearview mirror with no consequences, people are disgusted by politics?

Ew.

No.

But, I do own silicon Ziploc bags which are intended for cleaning and reuse.

The court could have allowed each county to operate in good faith in choosing any counting method that reflected voter intent, and they could have ruled that both candidates engage transition teams simultaneously so that either candidate would be prepared to take office, and let the count proceed for a couple more weeks without damage to the winner.

That's just one of many solutions that would have allowed the voters to decide the election.

Of all the types of speech protected by the courts, none is more highly valued than political speech. So there's no way in hell a court would try to impose blanket silence on a political candidate.
