I sell AI at one of those multi-trillion dollar Megacorps so that I can afford a lavish life-style of debauched sexual hedonism and bibliophilia.
I also tame Crows.

But truth is that most of the U.S lives on charity fumes and are third world without realizing it. The only reason they have shit is because they serve the world economy as credit sponges.

Appears to me to be the equivalent of a spoiled third generation heir who hasn't realized their inheritance ran out.
Meanwhile the rest of the world has taken over what made them rich to begin with.
Of course, if you include billionaires in the average. It'll look nice.

I will never understand the appeal of this. I assume the audience..mostly know it's fake, and enjoy it despite of it. The South Park parody at least had some entertainment value but whenever I actually see this....

Low interest debt on value accruing assets is not a trap. It's how the rich get richer. My home loan is making me an absolute mint year on year.
There's a great book called The price of time if you want to dig into the good and bad of debt and interest

Not all debt is created equal. Low interest debt that adds to your net worth. Like a good rate on a property loan, is good.
As for mental health and work, it's a balancing act depending on where you start.
On the rest, entirely agree.

It's really, really sad that this video will probably convince more Americans than most other information they'd see...oh well. Let's all spread it.

You know. You're kind of a toxic dick. That or propaganda to ensure the divide is deep on both ends. Who knows. Who cares.

Every day that passes I start to realize why having the vote used to require being a land-owner or have some other form of qualification.
I don't know what on earth the qualification should be. But the world might need some form of qualification in the future.

I can tell you we're solving telling fake video/images from real. I am afraid I can not announce a cure for basic human behavior.
I'm happy to hear you have a solution for that though. I'm sure misinformation will stop next week.
Or is my crime that I'm not smug-posting about this idiot?

Yeah because there's not a massive open source movement making the same models and I'm sure if I just e-mail our CEO he'll talk all the other global tech CEO's around to not making a product people (myself included) really want for reasons that aren't propaganda.
Ya got me.

Who'd like some GOOD news?! I work for a huge tech company and we have technology that can spot ANY Veo3 video as AI created.
All the big tech companies have and it will become financially viable to roll out at scale within a couple of years at most.
It will also defeat Veo4, 5 and likely etc.

Oh no. I guess they'll react by starting to arm terrorist groups and Mafia states as revenge now, sowing chaos all over the globe! Oh wait...

Yeah, negotiating with Russia's favorite ally, supplier of Shaheed's and funder of fuck knows how many militias and civil wars. Brilliant idea.
Some dictatorships need missiles. Period.

Netanyahu is a dick, a war criminal and a smarter version of Trump.
But Iran abso-fucking-lutely deserves every missile and bomb leveled at their military leadership and infrastructure.
Iran is 100% as much to blame for the deaths in Gaza as Netanyahu.
The world isn't black and white.

If wishes were fishes and so forth. Failure is failure. You have the political system you have and the American left has been failing since the late 90s.
The Republicans fuck the working class quickly. The Democrats were fucking them slowly.
Thomas Piketty predicted this in 2013.

I don't like Netanyahu, but even a broken clock is correct twice a day.
Actually scratch the "I don't like". I think Netanyahu should be in prison. But the point remains.

And parts of the left behave exactly as he wrote about in Homage to Catalonia and his Essays as well.
I'm not saying you're wrong. I'm not saying the MAGA movement is anything but jackbooted inepts.
But the American left have a lot of the blame for this shitshow.

I am really, really not sure this would be in the best interest of your country.
I'm afraid you're all stuck needing your politicians to grow a spine...god help you.
Because if you all start down this path...you'll see a whole NEW reign of political terror.

We're finally waking up to the threat. Not all of us. But enough that shit is starting to move forward.
What is happening in the world right now. Objectively speaking, it will likely be good for Europe. I'd have preferred Europe to rise differently though.

Misquoting Jesus, by Ehrman is a fantastic lecture I recommend to anyone and everyone. It's available on Youtube.

Nah. As much as I can't stand it there's no banning thought or faith. Gotta nudge, educate and just live and let live. Only way to go about it.
That and push back when the religious doesn't adhere to the live and let live part of course.

Since Christianity was codified as a religion by the Romans, more or less. Minus the America bit that is.
Organized Christian religion has always been lip-service only. Pretending anything else is frankly, a pretty futile effort.

Because we don't know. It's that simple. We do not know. it will depend on what comes next. And what comes next after that.
It is however clear, that the POTENTIAL is there. That anyone sane agrees on.
But probably along a longer timeline and in more convoluted manner than most people think.

I literally recommended the last book on this subject I read in the post.
Try at least reading what you're replying to, before you tell people to go read things.

Are the Democrats dumb enough to do this? As a European having watched them operate for the last 30 years....it wouldn't surprise me one bit. No.
With the only opposition coming from some fringe so far on the left they'd never win an election in their life.
Causing even more division. Yay...

It's dicks all the way down. Here's a video explainer: www.youtube.com/watch?v=-evI...
comment in response to

I will absolutely not argue that some serious dicks did some seriously dick things to native Americans.
But I will also argue that people tend to be equal and that who is named a dick by history, generally depends on which dick won.
To claim otherwise is frankly pretty racist.

They just provide simple figure-heads to hold up for the "opposing side" to say "Look at these frothing at the mouth, hateful idiots! This is feminism!".
I happen to believe that women should have rights and protections equal to any man.
Stupidity like this, hurts that.
comment in response to

To me the real issue here is that women, in the U.S lately and all over the world for a long time. Genuinely face a lot of issues we need to address.
But Jille and at least one other person I've seen in this thread are far from helping those causes.
comment in response to

Your original meme, which I critiqued is a direct contradiction of what you just claimed.
It says "the church never burned witches, it burned women".
You are not helping any liberal causes, you are actively hurting them by behaving like the left leaning version of a MAGA dumbass.
comment in response to
post
Not to mention literal children TORTURED TO DEATH to get them to "confess" that their parents were witches.
I apologize if that rains on your high horse parade but I think it's more important than this fucking meme. Especially given that we're about to do a fucking repeat in the U.S.

This "Evil men fearing smart women" is just a complete fucking fabrication and downplays a MUCH more relevant societal problem not to mention doesn't fucking begin to cover the insane horrors of what it resulted in. For men and women
comment in response to
post
I'm just pointing out that witch hunts were a societal problem that plagued everyone in society. They also didn't just burn them. It involved the gruesome torture of children and was sparked by an early instance of viral fake news as a result of the printing press.
comment in response to
post
I wasn't discussing Salem in particular. Witch hunts were actually a massive problem in Europe, funnily enough mostly due to the printing press and and early instance of viral "fake news".
That's another misconception, that it's all about Salem. Salem was a tiny part of it.
comment in response to

Actually they didn't discriminate. They burned men, little boys, entire families. Nexus by Yuval Noah Harari has one of the best write-ups on this you will ever find. From how it all began to some truly tragic stories of entire families being condemned.
This "men fearing women" narrative is BS.

I guess he discovered how weak he really thinks they are.
Let bitch-boy see them seriously try to use a nuke and realize how weak they TRULY are when Europe (doubt the u.s will do shit) wipes them from the fucking map with long range precision munitions.

Can't stand the man, but I'd love to see this. Would be very healthy for U.S politics.
Then maybe once things stabilize, the dems could split and you all could have FOUR whole choices.
In Europe, we call this "Democracy". It's a Greek innovation, you might like it.

Not really sure this is the way towards healing the political divide in the U.S or anywhere else.
Then again, most of you don't really care about that do you? You just like having that nice, comfy high horse.
Honestly, some of you are only "on the left" through sheer accident.
