this & other comments i've seen about how bluesky needs to "improve its algorithm" suggest a lot of people have grown to like a totally passive social media experience where a computer pushes an endless stream of content tailored to what it thinks they would like while they clap like seals

Well done to antifascist comrades in France for showing a fascist that fascism is extremely bad for your health. It really is!

At risk of sounding like a lib - it really is surreal that a line like this isn't front page news.
Ted Lieu: “Donald Trump is in the Epstein files thousands and thousands of times. In those files, there are highly disturbing allegations of Donald Trump raping children … of Donald Trump threatening to kill children. So I encourage the press to go look at these allegations.”

The thing that is especially frustrating about all of this is that none of it’s new; it’s the same bullshit I wrote about over a decade (?!?) ago with different slang

The “left has not been willing to engage seriously with AI” argument is so lazy because like... I did, and I'm sure a bunch of other left-leaning people did. But, it was really obvious even 2 years ago that it's a shitty piece of tech. That's why I hate it.
I work mostly in non-profit database management, something AI should aid gracefully, and I genuinely gave LLM AI’s a shot in the first few months of all the hype, and it… can’t do anything. It’s also wrong about the historical topic I studied the most. But AI shills still love to tell me I’m naive…

it's often nothing more than an aesthetic, too, a way of setting yourself apart from others by engaging "seriously" with e.g. fascist ideologies. it's supposedly very high-minded but it's actually incredibly shallow. but at other times it's a way *consciously* of mainstreaming those ideologies.
There’s a certain type of discourse poison that has captured people’s minds wherein the only valid “argument” is one that strives to see the “logic” from all sides of said argument.

And hell nah, we need to re-learn that some things are simply not up for debate. We need not suffer fools.

I kinda love how ham-handed every attempt to adjust the overall personally of a LLM chatbots are. Too obsequious? Now it’s an angry offputting asshole. Too woke? Now it’s mechahitler. Not nice enough to Elon Musk? Now it’ll tell you Elon is the best piss drinker in the entire world

This is the kind of thing white supremacists have been doing to Emmett Till’s memorial for decades.

It’s wild to see them do this to a white woman who the entire world saw extrajudicially murdered.
Someone doused Renee Good’s Minneapolis memorial and a nearby pile of wood with gasoline and started a fire at about 9 p.m. Tuesday.

It's incredible how it was revealed that the anti-trans push over the past decade was concocted in no small part by a literal PEDOPHILE CONSPIRACY and the reaction of transphobic lawmakers, journalists, academics has been a shrug and a "well, we gotta
carry out the orders from pedophile island"
