Wouldn’t any text editor with a delinter be superior

Not writing or coding. No one uses it for anything except when Microsoft forces someone to use it as a default text editor.

Oftentimes the simplest answer is the right one

There are numerous analyses which show the same link between economic vulnerability, high birth rate, and extremism. Which is why the right wing are always chopping away at support programs, economic development, and birth control.

The subtle difference was that Pelosi’s attacker had his hands on the hammer as well as Pelosi and they were both white. It looks like they were unsure as to who the attacker was.

I think the reason it looks like religion motivates violent extremism is because the demography of the people most vulnerable to extremist propaganda are also more likely (statistically) to be more religious.

A brainworm that makes its zombie host sow doubt in the minds of others? 40k or like 2.025k?

Have you heard of the Doubt worm?

Is this real or did someone make a rfk themed 40k creature?

The right wing is still powerful over there. The Supreme court judge who voted to acquit bolsanaro is still a member of the court. All it takes is a broken judiciary to enable fascism. And Brazil could easily go in that direction again if the fascists win control again.

Decades of defunding and stripping down public education is now bearing fruit. We can thank right-wing political interests from both parties for the death of the US educational system. But this is what led to an overreliance on video as a news dissemination platform as people do not read much compared to other economies.

Weimar Germany, by the way, was the best educated country in the world in the thirties. This is what made Nazi propaganda more effective: they were able to use propaganda campaigns to target vulnerable populations. We now know from Cambridge Analytica that this group exists in all cultures. The so-called “Average” group.

Being ignorant doesn’t excuse their actions, but it explains their motives in a way that makes them more human. We’re all fallible, some of us more so than others. Look at it this way: it’s not a crime to be completely cut off from good news sources. There’s nothing evil in getting all your news from your church buddies or the people at work. Most news is negative anyway so people naturally avoid it.

The people who control those groups are horrible human beings. Narcissistic, sadistic, nihilists. Unfortunately, liberal democracy does nothing to stop them from spreading their message to vulnerable groups.

Youre right that they should have known better but you cant blame fools for being fools. You can blame the conmen who scam them.

I monitor conservative and nationalist media and they promote lies all day long. The people screaming about whats going on? Completely misrepresented or marginalized in their coverage. Its impossible to have democracy with propaganda networks ranking number 1 in the public consciousness

I also have been feeling schaedenfreud but its not all their fault. They may have voted for trump but that was mainly because they were misled by propaganda networks. It shows how bad reporting is particularly among the rustbelt propaganda networks.Because none of these people were aware about project twenty twenty five which pretty much promised to crush trade.

If they had been presented with accurate reporting there’s no way they would have voted against the pro trade neo liberals.

Our legal and political system enabled a group of plutocrats to falsify reporting and amplify russian disinformation campaigns.

The court did not address the worst rights violations: the ice agents refused to return the victims’ Real ID (driver’s license) and they probably copied his phone.

Meaning after taking his ID they can then indefinitely incarcerate him for not having ID. They can also prevent him from driving because he does not have a driver’s license.

And they added his data to a criminal database along with all of his social contacts and communication.

Trump is worried that musk could derail the midterm elections so he’s pretending to be friendly again. This is like with maxwell getting a transfer to a Country club prison

Nixon called this technique a “limited hangout” in the tapes he recorded of himself.

They only release files when their cover story has failed. The point of the release is to distract. That’s why they didn’t release anything that’s new.

Even fun videos get search traffic from random queries. A video about robots fighting each other will get traffic from people interested in “robots fighting”, “robots wars”, “robowars”, “armored core”, “Gundam series”

When there are ai summaries for informational or navigational queries there will be fewer clicks because Google will pirate listicle sources of “best robots fighting each other articles”. This means they are stealing from older lists and newer videos will not get mentioned in the ai summary.

This is because ai technology can’t judge the quality of a video.

Rfk made one good point: why are Americans so sick if what we’re doing is working? Then this dude blames one of the most effective public health programs in history.

Clearly vaccines, one of the last vestiges of a robust public health program, which eliminated some of the worst plagues in the world, must be why we’re so sick. Swiss cheese tequila brain. 🪱🧠🍸

Rfk used to talk a lot of sense but today he is a walking taking ad for vaccines. If not shooting vaccines ages my voice box 20 years ill take two shots of everything please

If his health is anything like his voice the curse worked like a mofo and the dude is now the keeper for the new tales from the crypt mini series

LLMs are doing things like summarizing videos and then using the summaries to answer queries that before would have been a search result with monetization.

Google’s executives are unconcerned about the declinibg incentives to create YouTube videos having been sold on the lie that the future of the internet lies in Ai generated content. In other words robots will make the internet.

Robots which hallucinate constantly.

Thats the scam: they know most Americans support basic voter id requirements and dont read the news. So Americans would tacitly support a national voter ID requirement (which itself violates the constitution) without realizing that it would prevent many women from voting. Voter ID laws are a Trojan horse for rolling back democratic controls on fascism.
