Hello awesome 🤩

The US govt mixing video of real violence in a war it started with a video game scene feels like crossing a(nother) line.

I’m not sure what to say. I don’t think war is a game. And even when I think military action is necessary, there are real human beings on the other end, not pixels that respawn.

Plantar discourse is so toxic I usually steer clear of it, but I appreciate getting confirmation that his boosters see the Nazi-adjacent stuff as feature, not bug.

As in, not something to tolerate because the rest is so good, but something good on its own because it makes Dems seem less “uptight.”

Good plan, there’s no way that the US would ever betray Kurds who fought on their behalf, or that Turkey would be upset by and seek to frustrate any US-backed Kurdish forces, or that an invasion from Iraq would trigger Iranian nationalist opposition. None of those things have ever happened.

Hoovering up info that's outdated as well as relatively current and not knowing the difference is an unsurprising AI error. If the change was relatively recent, there's more old info, and the system lacks the judgment to find and emphasize the new.

This is exactly why we need humans in the loop.

Kristi is the link the chain we’ve been waiting for. She knows things and has receipts. Don’t let her keep that info hidden! 🇺🇸

They are torturing and killing people in our concentration camps, and I wish more people were actively bothered by that

I continue to be gobsmacked at 1) how common this formulation is 2) how antisemitic and generally bigoted it is 3) and how for all the talk of anti-semitism this is never cited as an example even though it’s quite literally the original incarnation.
