    The actual fuck are you talking about?

    Your link is for Hamtramck

    Plenty of scholars have written about it.

    “Scholars”?!?

    No one is debating that sometimes Muslims vote progressive or something progressives vote for Muslims. The answer will never be 100% either way.

    You said you wanted to talk about your link, but you’ve got the location wrong you don’t understand it was conservative politicians elected by conservative voters and I’m struggling to think of any excuse for why you think that link is valid

    I’ve sure as shit wasted enough time as you as an individual though








  • Steve Bannon

    Literally the one that excelled at the online pivot.

    He’s basically the old white guy from American History X, except because our timeline is extra crazy, he got involved with Chinese WoW gold farms and realized online games was even easier to recruit than webpages.

    Like, he’s absolutely a piece of shit, but decades ago before the alcohol turned his brain completely to mush, he put in the first steps to getting us here. Not just politically but socially/culturally.

    He was extremely effective, but he wouldn’t have been if he was forced to do all that shit in person where he could be punched in the face.

    Steve Bannon hanging out with 10 year olds on a playground sets off alarm bells, but do it from behind a WoW avatar and it doesn’t stand out.

    Again tho, it’s not the online games, its not the in person DnD, not the punk shows, not skateparks, not social media…

    Those are all just places, and if Nazis are tolerate in any places, they set up shop and start recruiting. The only way to get rid of it and to keep it gone, is constantly being aware in every space that some day a Nazi might show up, and if they do the most important thing is that they leave. If everyone does that, it works. But everyone has to do it, they can’t have a safe space because they’ll only use it to make everywhere else less safe.


  • It’s not social media itself, it’s social media companies tolerating the intolerant.

    Back in the day nazis recruited at punk shows, so when they showed up you punched them in the face and they left. Fucking easiest 2 minute conflict resolution ever and it kept them check for decades while letting teenage punks have a valid target for their rage.

    Then daytime TV (Springer, Ricky lake, that shit) started bringing them on, and letting them get their message out, and they capitalized on that with early webpages and forums. Creating the same recruitment pipeline they use today, because people can’t physically punch them in the face online.

    The mods/admins have to do that with bans.

    When they don’t, it’s for the same reason as Springer. They want the conflict because conflict attracts eyeballs. But all it does is help nazis recruit.

    There can’t be any tolerance of the intolerant.




  • The goal is obviously for every individual in public to be identified 24/7, not just an ID, but a link to a Palintar style file. They click on you in a video and get all your data and a map of everywhere you’ve went and everyone you talk to since the program started.

    The big lie tho is they say it will stop crime, it won’t stop a single one. It will just do cops job if they investigate something, and that’s very likely to not even be a real crime.

    It’s 9/11 and TSA all over again, none of this makes us safer, but this time they’re not even trying to trick us into it, they’re just doing it.

    We need a nationwide movement not to vote for anyone, anywhere, that every backs these things.

    Make it abundantly clear that the campaign contributions bribes will cost them their jobs. No politician actually wants Flock, they just want money Flock pays them.


  • Buddy…

    Heat rises, that’s how a hot air balloon works.

    You put something hot at the bottom of the ocean, as it heats the water, that water rises.

    Cold water comes in from the sides, and the process repeats.

    A geothermal vent does way more than a data center does and is a huge ecological benefit.

    Obviously there’s better things to put down there then a data center, but this is literally the only place a data center is t hurting the planet simply by existing.

    Hell, build near an existing vent and harvest it’s heat for energy why piggybacking on the existing currents and you can literally get “free” compute power with no ecological downside.

    This tech won’t end with this data enter, it’s just where the money is currently at and that drives our research these days.

    Like, it would probably take a lot more typing for people to get how huge this is, but we’ll be lucky if we’re still alive to see the real benefits of what was developed for this project





  • No, the article says their problems are with surveillance and automated weapons…

    Which are valid concerns for almost everyone…

    Which is why everyone should have a say in it, and not just the people the AI companies choose to employ.

    If their employees get to decide it, they just won’t have any employees that are willing to say AI shouldn’t be used for that. Employment would be predicated on saying AI should have no limits.

    Which is why if this happened, it would overall be a bad thing.


  • Why do people keep posting AI articles without understanding them?

    Or are you really advocating for the fix being a couple thousand tech ros making the calls for everyone instead of a handful of techbros?

    Even if this happened, people like Musk would just pay his employees more so they say it’s ok. If they won’t say it’s ok for any amount of money, they’re not employed anymore.

    Why would anyone whose job is training AI, say we shouldn’t have AI?

    It gives the illusion that it’s ok, without changing anything.

    The solution is the democratic process, not slightly enlarging the circle of unelected oligarchs making decisions for us.

    Like, if these workers gave a fuck, they wouldn’t have taken these jobs to start with,they’re not gonna save us anymore than people working in a coal mine will save us from climate change
