The love of rich people is only surpassed by the hatred of the poor. Two sides of the same coin.

What to get for your bestie who's organizing neighborhood anti-ICE patrols
Question: if you're so confident in your own intellect and reasoning why would you delegate and outsource your creativity to a program that can't feel, experience anything, think, or has the capacity for empathy? Unless....those are all the things you lack? LLMs are confirmation bias machines.
I decided that you lack the spirit to be worth further engagement, so I had the conversation w/ Gemini 3 Pro, instead.

They hide reasoning chains in public share URLs, so attaching a few screenshots to show ya.
Best of luck, Kathryn! <3

Like, surely it’s obvious that the purpose of collective society is to provide welfare. That’s the whole deal. The whole reason we cooperate. Or do anything together at all. For increased security. Greater overall quality of life. Money & resources are there. There’s no excuse for our current state.

Whapped
There’s something doubly grating about the pious invocation of “Western civilization” by the sort of incurious dolt who wouldn’t know a Titian canvas, a Beethoven quartet, or a Socratic dialogue if whapped them upside the head.
It has long been clear that unalloyed racism lies at the core of Trumpism, and he is becoming increasingly explicit about this.

white as a color refracts all other colors. it can't create, it can't absorb, it can only reflect.

People who scream the loudest generally do the least, evidenced by the hundreds and hundreds of keyboard warriors. You could use that same energy to pick up the phone, write a letter, go to an ANC meeting, join an organization, and do even one small thing. The actions add up, the community builds.
I really can't emphasize enough that if you care about local politics, all you gotta do is show up. Just a regular schmegular person showing up. Literally just show up consistently in person and within a remarkably short amount of time, you will have a shocking amount of influence.

And showing up often means sending a letter and following up with calls so excuses of not having time don't fly.
