“The social dimensions of knowledge reveal the fundamental difference between encyclopedias and AI chatbots: namely, the complete vacuum of any corresponding intellectual culture in the latter. No living context, no shared endless task—and, in its place, endlessly personalized responses.”

Wikipedia is one of a few bazaars of open-source internet idealism left, and LLMs mean it might not be left standing for long.

"I saw the mask of humanity fall from capital. It has to take it off to kill everyone- everything you love; all the hope and tenderness in the word. It has to take it off, just for one second. to do the deed."

how can we suffer these people to live among us, let alone purport to rule us? they're not just our enemies. they're an affront to the human experiment. they're hostile to all life not their own. they'd burn any number of us alive to avoid even a moment of mild discomfort. hideous

Taking a break from my turboracist group chat to make an IG meme celebrating murder. I'd have done more than one but the NYT keeps blowing up my phone asking about how it feels to be oppressed by the libs

I genuinely have no idea how to convey this to the American people, but I think the biggest impediment to any kind of immigration reform is that people are convinced that "legal" and "illegal" are immutable, intrinsic categories instead of a rapidly-shifting arbitrary constellation of regulations.

They said "free speech" and "academic freedom" but never believed in either and now in texas you need a permission slip to mention race in class and they're fine with it. Might not have worked if people with large platforms weren't furious about marginal increases of black people in their offices

Destabilizing countries the world over and then attacking the people who flee those wars is, of course, nothing new. From the September 11th attacks in 2001 until September 2020, this country’s war on terror, according to one study, displaced an estimated 37 million people in eight countries.

Radical centrists are usually left arguing with college students and the people who annoy them on twitter because their project has involved excluding the left from actual publications that pay writers

it's not that serious but you can still find roger ebert's 4 star review and contrast it with pauline kael's negative review if you want to see how much was lost when artistic tastemakers, flawed as they were, got replaced by yelp for da movies

There’s no point during the detention of a five-year-old that any person with a functioning moral center would not step back to reassess the situation and their place in it. That nobody involved did proves they lack the common interiority required to successfully coexist in ordered society.

I guess I do think if you participated in the arrest of a five-year-old you are probably just fundamentally incompatible with society. That you are not a safe person for humanity to be around, generally
