I’ve warned that this was only a matter of time, but it’s still shocking to see in person. Here AI generated content is being used to create a fake news ecosystem, disparaging a professor who has been critical of unscientific bullshit in the form of deextinction hype.

I think this comes from a good place but I disagree. A common thread in deradicalization stories is stigma: Once people start losing friends and jobs they reconsider their beliefs. Obviously you should try to be nice to people but you also need to draw a line where you won’t engage anymore.

TIL: Amelio Robles was trans man who fought in the mexican revolution. He was a colonel and was legally recognized as a man. He married a woman and they adopted a child. He died in the 80s at 95 years old. Apparently, he is in the Civilization VII game.

Absolute nonsense calling publicly funded research "communism" and fangirling over broligarchs like Elon Musk and their anarco-capitalism wet dreams. You should be ashamed of posting this, Sabine.
