I think they mean voting isn't enough and we all need to shit post harder

Sounds like a self-fulfilling prophecy that ends with the least resourced groups dead. Good thing the capitalists are famously the least-strapped chuds around.

The call is coming from inside. Google CEO claims it will be like alien intelligence so we should just trust it to make political decisions for us bro: https://www.computing.co.uk/news/2024/ai/former-google-ceo-eric-schmidt-urges-ai-acceleration-dismisses-climate

I don't know many things but the voters are obviously to blame. We drew 100 different trolley problems and told them democracy and women's rights were on the line. We even had Bill Clinton logically explain that Palestinians were human shields. We even had better policy even though most voters didn't know it. I can only conclude voters are selfish and that's why they vote against their own interests.

History starts when I say it does

When they say it's about race, it's about class. When they say it is about class, it's about gender. And when they say it's out gender, it's about race.

Or at least that's how it feels sometimes.

I am completely wrong and yet completely vindicated by your response.

People didn't care enough to show up to stop forced births, you think they care about puberty blockers? Doubt.

That's like splitting hairs over whether a abortion is banned in Texas, cuz technically it is allowed under very narrow circumstances that no hospital is willing to try.

I got the same vibe but it seems the ambiguity was a large enough liability.

Maybe, but it involves paying more for teachers.

When I say unhealthy I am not talking about you individually but the impact on the outcome of the discourse. This particular moment isn't about proving who was right, though there is plenty of other places where that is needed, it is about integrating what we know so we can coalesce.
