Do you ever think that we were delivered the embodiment of the American id–all of our hubris and ignorance and violence and racism made terrible flesh–sent to dismantle any lingering vestiges of our collective goodness by smashing and pulling on those very levers until they explode or is it just me?
Creepy thing is that GPT didn’t invent this model—this is essentially the apotheosis of neoliberal ed reformists’ vision for schooling
I'm the guy who advised chat gpt to make their logo a butt hole. I told them it represents Knowledge
Left can't resist being on wrong side of a war Whether it's Jeremy Corbyn or Zack Polanski, their foreign policy stances terrify voters outside core supporters
Well, here’s the thing about being antiwar as an ethical belief: it means you end up opposing most wars. Almost all of them, in fact. This is quite common in people who have consistent beliefs but looks insane to people who have none, or mostly just believe superior people should make the decisions.

i'm taking a brave stance that may get me canceled: there is no reason for the pervert glasses to exist
Classic. Getting a question wrong that they ask you after getting kicked in the head by a horse to assess for brain damage.
I don't hate this war because it wasn't "authorized properly," or because I am not a fan of the specific President waging it. I hate this war because it is a war.

No one at these institutions enforces anything like professionalism or decency when it comes to calling for and endorsing systemic violence against vast swaths of people but trivial shit is policed heavily to the point of losing your employment. Betraying your preference for a Democrat is considered a sin in journalism while expressing your desire to see people immiserated — foreigners or Americans — is considered so down the middle it barely even registers as having said anything at all. This isn’t “cancel culture” by the way it’s the banality of standard issue American bloodlust and Puritanical punishment culture. You can remain in good standing in media or politics while advocating for as much violence and pain as you want as long as you do so politely and aren't saying you'll directly deliver it personally. Writing a story called “Invade Iraq now!” — or Iran or wherever for that matter — will never get you fired but saying “I'm going to come kick your ass” to one specific person will. Saying “We need to reopen the economy” during a pandemic despite the massive loss of life that would result is fine while telling someone “I hope your parents die” is not. In other words hoping for one death is an abomination while passively accepting or enabling the deaths of 100,000 is just astute politics to paraphrase the fella. The whole thing is a stupid game like when kids annoy their siblings by saying “I'm not touching you” while poking them with a stick. The idea is that as long as there's a buffer between you and the violence you are calling for through systemic means then your soul and professional reputation can remain clean.

PANEL 1: The IMPORTANT PUNDIT is standing on a soapbox with a megaphone on the street. One or two people are watching. He motions with his thumb behind himself. PUNDIT: Hello! WHAT IF Mattie had all of "her" skin ripped off in one big piece like a clementine? PUNDIT: This is "its" house by the way! PANEL 2: MATTIE, sitting on her couch with a book. The voice from the megaphone comes from outside. VO: What if someone did that. Just if anyone has a big knife, for doing the thing I talked about. I'm just wondering aloud! PANEL 3: MATTIE leans out the window, yelling. MATTIE: Get bent, asshole! PANEL 4: Back on the PUNDIT. everyone is raising a knife of some sort. PUNDIT: Can you believe that language? PERSON IN CROWD: SO uncivil. PERSON IN CROWD: Let's go up there with our blades

I don't care if Congress authorizes War on Iran. NO WAR ON IRAN. I want people to fucking reclaim their morality.
as always
so, torture. they’re torturing them as federal policy. entirely predictable, but that doesn’t make it any less evil
This is worth mentioning to your friends who traded their ChatGPT for Claude subscriptions - Claude helped kill all of those little girls at school in Iran. Anthropic isn’t ethical AI.
The US. We have repeatedly experimented on prisoners. You don't need to look outside our borders for this.

They start wars because they think it will earn them the respect they are owed and the only evidence of that working is every fucking moron going ahead and respecting the people who start and carry out the wars for the entirety of human history.
GOD THIS GUY FUCKING SUCKS
People overseas love their kids just as much as you love yours. Your kids aren’t more special just because they were born on US soil
Image of Tou Thao, the cop who stood by and did nothing as his partner, Derek Chauvin kneeled on George Floyd's neck for almost 10 minutes, murdering him in broad daylight.
When people admonish us for not directing anger solely at Trump, but also directing it at Dems; I think of Tou Thao, calmly standing there as Derek Chauvin slowly murdered George Floyd nearby.
Tou only sprung into action to lash out at bystanders asking him to stop his coworker from killing Floyd.
“kamala would have never bombed iran” are you stupid. are you a stupid baby.
This is why that "How dare the United States treat Canada like this" whining last week was nonsense. That country rides shotgun on/provides justification for damn near every evil deed the U.S. does unless it's being done to them. If "I never thought the leopard would bite *my* face" was a country.
Liars, thieves, cheaters, killers, rapists, pedophiles, racists. Ruining the world with no consequences for their actions. Being praised even. As a species we should be ashamed of ourselves.
We murdered a bunch of little girls in a school though. I hope everyone realizes that the people in charge (which includes establishment Dems) are absolutely fine with killing Iranian kids
Expecting us – with good reason based on history – to all thank them for their service. Fuck your service and fuck you.
Saving a life is brave. Being instructed to kill and saying no I will not do that is brave. But killing like this? It is the least human thing you can do.
