That AI “hallucinates” and can be easily programed to lie is reason enough to deny its builders the use of any public resources and impose strict regulations on its programming and use.

We are in the middle of a Christian nationalist putsch. Deport farm workers and laborers, break the economy, end financial safety net and heath insurance, end birth control and abortion, force the non elite into the fields. Get the troops ready to enforce order in case The People object.

Practice “calling in the troops” so when people realize the economy is being tanked to replace the field workers being deported, which causes people to take to the streets, the “troops” will be ready.

Here’s some real “fake economy.” Paying Congressmen when they are not working. Letting Congress have different (better) healthcare than the rest of us. Letting Congressmen travel anywhere in the world on our dime when they won’t come talk to us.

Antebellum southern plantation owners lived in constant fear of a slave uprising. I suspect our oligarchs “suffer” similarly and for similar reasons.

There is no reason our economic system needs to be organized the way it is. It is a form of feudalism. The main differences are money instead of land and royalty owes campaign contributions instead of military service.

Depends on the statute and the facts. I don’t know the defense’s position. Might have been threw the sandwich away in disgust, didn’t mean to hit the victim. Could have been there was no intent to cause harm. It was just a sandwich after all. Or it could have been jury nullification, which is legal.

Nancy Pelosi is one of the greatest political leaders in the nation’s history. And, yes, my Republican friends, this is one of those rare instances where disagreement is not a matter of opinion but a sign of imbecility.

Many professionals and scholars work after 67.While it is difficult to do hard physical work even that long, institutional knowledge, experience, and wisdom remain valuable even after the knees and back give out. Indeed wisdom and experience can protect against the tendency to overgeneralize.

Let’s investigate all the elections Trump was involved in. Maybe set up a special World Court investigation. Jack Smith has some experience there. He could run it.

Time to drop 60 minutes, maybe all of CBS. Perhaps the network had no choice except to give in to Trump’s extortion, but we must fight the spread of the totalitarian disease.

Of course they could. Corporations are already limited. Can a corporation drive a car? Can it vote? Can it adopt a child? Corporations are created by statute. Their rights and powers are defined by statute. Change the statutes change the corporations.
