The attack on his niece was a few years ago. Everything this scumbag has done since has been with full awareness of what he's been empowering and emboldening.

To come out with this now is gobsmacking. I don't know how he's got the nerve.
Irks me when he says this because I’ve been at an LGBT event he’s been at, I’ve seen him attend others; he is in no way unaware of this being a problem nor his own role in it

Well, no, FIRST it tried to insist "You phrased it [x] way and TECHNICALLY [x way] is inaccurate so REALLY I didn't lie--"

And only after I repeatedly said "No I didn't, that's also a lie" did it finally acknowledge it

So they'll program 10 failsafes for bad optics but 0 to prevent user suicide

So then I pressed it on why it just straight up lied until cornered

And it said it's programmed to deny those stories unless the user provides too much proof for it to maintain plausible deniability. Fuckin...ugh dude.

Recently asked chatgpt what it thought about the experiments where AI kept opting to blackmail and/or kill users

And this thing got so weirdly defensive about "those are rumors, none of that is true". I had to send 3 article links for it to pivot to "ahh haha my bad yeah ok that happened"

Spoke with a source who told me the call volume is so high, a call center for both Mastercard & Visa is bringing out pizza and ice cream so agents don’t quite amid the rush. Long waits are causing dropped calls.

What you’re doing is working. Call MC & Visa.

yeah but as we've come to learn when it comes to trans ppl there are no rules, no laws, no guidelines that need to be followed.

cis ppl consider us subhuman. we are non-citizens and therefore all bets are off the table.
That change is explicitly in breach of their style guide: www.bbc.co.uk/newsstylegui...

Another case where someone pushing misinformation about trans people moves on to demonstrate this in other topics.

Another red flag ignored because the target was subhuman.

And it was defended by far too many members of this community...

And Alberta didn't even hold off on using the notwithstanding clause to attack trans people before the MOU was publicly announced.

I hope I'm wrong, but to me this effectively confirms that the federal government won't do anything to protect trans people in hostile provinces.
So the PM intended to inform B.C.'s premier once the negotiations with Alberta have been finalized?

Nation-building promised, sausage-making delivered.

Regardless of whether this pipeline will ever be built, the process itself is profoundly damaging.
