"Cool Zone New Year" was meant to be a joke

I still think this was just a top tier shitpost from a woefully underpaid and bored adjunct

I've been blessed with the absence of such people but I also don't work a white collar job where there's a high propensity for mandatory LLM use

Like this shit is literally the use case for Bayes's Theorem

Even Elizier Yudkowsky could tell you what's wrong with this argument

Wallace Shawn's character from The Princess Bride using an LLM and it tells him Sicilans have poison immunity

Careful now, the bsky mods might think you're being unironic lol

We’re not doing “my people yearn to be bombed” in woke 2

You can tell that the US blew up that school because everyone’s doing everything possible to find a way to disqualify the obvious. The country that was bragging about knowing everything it hits suddenly being quiet and wanting to move past the situation while its journalists blame the AI system? Ok.

It's honestly revealing that some of these people never outgrew the post-Gamergate, "meme magic" era of 2015-17 (which we now know was partly a psyop by Epstein associates as insane as that sounds)

This instinct needs to be fought against every waking moment. Get rest if you need it but these motherfuckers are mostly paper tigers who want to scare you into hiding instead of fighting back

The type of chronically online, woefully media-illiterate chud who had a sexual awakening playing Final Fantasy 7 but completely missed that Avalanche were literal eco-terrorists

Kylo Ren is sadly on theme and appropriate, maybe Beerus, but I somehow doubt Yami Yugi, Optimus Prime, and Deadpool would want to have even a third-order association with these cretins

Fwiw we *do* have real heroes but the ones with name recognition consistently end up dead, in prison, or die penniless.

Regardless they abolutely got our asses

Reading comprehension on par with Reddit mods (*very* pejorative)

Iran: look, it's simple. We literally just paint the silhouette of a plane on the ground. We literally just nail together some boxes in the shape of a tank. We literally just pull looney tunes shit. Their AI will make them spend $100 million to destroy $5 of arts and crafts.

the US: grok is this

This is the way. Good food (and/or booze) with friends and loved ones is hard to beat

There's waking up to the horrors and then there's knowing what the hell to do about it. Without the latter you get a population of indolent cynics

The short answer is the anti-torture, pro-due-process side "lost" the debate. Obama, Pelosi, etc. intentionally let these people off without even slaps on the wrist

I think our best shot at this outcome is a socialist revolution that makes it crystal clear we're brutally punishing the psychopaths who were primarily responsible for spreading such terror and misery around the world.

Maybe empty out and level all the mega-prisons and DHS camps for good measure

You say this as if the Democrats were *ever* going to do this under any circumstance other than at gunpoint

Vincent Bevins describes the elder boomer/younger silent New Left, the students spearheading 1968 protests and strikes, as "ideological orphans" and it really shows.

You could argue they tried their best given the amnesiac, lobotomized character of their organizing but their best wasn't enough

Granted this is downstream from the sins of the western "greatest"/silent gen workers who either a) were liberals bought off by the New Deal and went along with McCarthyist purges or b) got themselves purged from the labor movement after subordinating themselves to liberal-led popular frontism

My position is less "boomers across class lines are to blame for [insert symptom of capitalism in crisis here]" and more "the boomer left are mostly liberals who either didn't do enough to fight capitalism or unwittingly participated in crushing socialism"

Wait a minute they CHOSE to sit down and have McD's with Trump? I thought that photo op was something they were forced to do! Why else would they look so tired and miserable?

Remember for a hot minute when it seemed like Poliwhirl was a contender for the Main Face of Pokemon before the anime cemented Pikachu in that position?

This is fair. A lot of this drives me nuts, especially the vote-scolding/shaming from liberals who steadfastly refuse to understand that from a neocolonial/global south/"third world" perspective there's little if any meaningful difference between Democratic and Republican presidencies

YOU'RE NOT DEALING WITH THE AVERAGE FASCIST ANYMORE KAKAROT

The dweeb who literally called himself a "superfascist", as I learned from @theabigailthorn.bsky.social (or more precisely her "brother")

More than the people who don't even try to do stuff but say someone else ought to do stuff, I imagine
