The shit Fuentes and Tate consider "gay" is not gay as we understand it. Its gay because its emasculating to them
Loving your wife and treating her like she's an autonomous individual? Emasculating. Being a nice person and giving others respect? Emasculating
I can go on but that's the core of it

In 2024, Tierra Walker was sick and getting sicker. She was also pregnant.
She knew abortion was illegal in Texas, but thought there was an exception for women like her, whose health was at risk. Doctors told her there was no emergency.
Then she died.

LLMs give people with delusional belief systems a way to organise those beliefs. The model fills in gaps, supplies connective tissue, and wraps the madness in formal language.
It doesn't make the claims more credible to us, it just tidies them up.

it is almost as if accommodating and conceding to far right ideas legitimizes them and signals to voters that the far right is a legitimate choice for governance
The Danish Social Democrats are currently on course for their worst election result since at least the Second World War, despite their brand of far-right accommodationism being touted as a blueprint for other centre-left parties.

I dunno, man. Seems pretty wild to write an extensive piece like this and only give a cursory mention of why so many people "declined to be interviewed."
The man has sued so many people for even just TWEETING about the case. But I still gotta listen to CanLit elites play the victim? C'mon.

Children should have legally enshrined inalienable rights that can’t be overruled by parents.
"my least woke opinion is---"
That's enough. We've had enough people indulging in the "thrill of a little conservatism", as a treat. Of considering reactionary thought to be a salacious and taboo in a world descending into reactionary mania.
Give me your MOST woke opinions. We're bringing it back.

My takeaway from every new Epstein revelation is that some powerful people victimized many powerless young women, many more knew, some actively enabled it--and we're still being told that MeToo and accountability for sexual violence have gone too far

The 8 Senators and Schumer should experience the consequences of this vote by becoming pariahs. They should no longer be welcome at events. Restaurants should refuse to serve them. Stores and vendors should refuse to sell to them. Tell them they suck daily. Basically, give them the ICE treatment.
