Humans care for the rich, robots are forced on the poor. The neoliberal fantasy of the oligarchs is coming to fruition by the way of austerity measures and spending cuts. Why pay for actual human support if a robot can tick the checkbox.

Kinda wild how quickly Democrats have tilted to using "immigrant" as a slur. The problem with Elon Musk is that he's a billionaire (a class status that should not exist). Not that he's an immigrant.

Man, I gotta say, living through a second dark age wasn't in my life plan. Because that's what this is. An age of darkness. Maybe it only last a handful of years, but to end it we'll need to fundamentally change as a species

A thing I wish I could teach people is that the vast majority of very rich people are deeply stupid. They did not get where they are because of ingenuity or talent. They got there because of compound interest on hereditary wealth and being tax cheats.

What will help your political movement more A) saying fuck around and find out and making fun of poor people B) working with mutual aid orgs to deliver food and do ideological work at the same time, educating them and providing them resources at the same time Difficult to say!

I think it is darkly funny that Ezra Klein had Yuval Levin on less than a week ago and Levin was like "Vance is a smart guy, I don't believe he would ever support Trump defying a court order."

ChatGPT ad shows generative AI is totally washed. Impossible to tell what it was the first half until it started saying random prompts like "write me a business plan." Two years in and they don't have a better sales pitch than "summarise this article for me." Washed!

The richest man in the world, celebrating his takeover of the United States government, celebrating the destruction of a federal agency that has protected Americans from financial predation. There is a class war, and we are losing because we are not showing up to fight.

we should probably teach kids to code more just to demystify this shit. like it’s not easy, but it’s very learnable. letting people think Being Good At Computer makes you a genius polymath has been such a disaster.

As a software engineer with 25+ years of experience, I have a difficult time relating just how dangerous this is to people who aren't in that field. This is about as close as I can get, but if it were high up on a narrow mountain road with no guardrails: www.youtube.com/watch?v=VUBK...

The key problem with liberals is that they take fascism seriously as an intellectual argument. They think they can defeat it with juuussst the right argument. Except fascism isnt a rational position. It can't be negotiated with.

theory: reflexive defense of dems is a coping mechanism for people too scared to act/have agency in the world. these dead enders hate criticism of dems because it implies that they'll have to actually DO something in the next 2 years other than vote in the midterms and that makes them uncomfortable

Trump is openly violating the law on a vast and unprecedented scale and everyone is acting like it's normal. NPR had a long story about finding a rare shrew. NYT said he was disregarding "legal niceties." This is an attack on the Constitution as profound as the attempt to overturn the 2020 election.

you know we like to make jokes on here at mark zuckerberg's expense, about how he looks, speaks, and acts. but sometimes you have to step back and remember that all of those mean-spirited things are true. he looks like if you boiled a toad and stretched it out into a guy
