Yes, all spanking is bad.

Just because it didn't end up being completely catastrophic, does not mean it's not bad.

Laying hands on a child is child abuse, and all child abuse is bad.

Some parents defend stories that violate their autistic children’s privacy, saying they have the right to be β€œhonest”—but it is not honest to tell a story about two people while only including one person’s perspective.

But, hey, I'm giving your fragile, narcissistic ego the last word now that I'm about to mute you.

Be good and please do better.

What they said should not have made you feel guilty, because there's nothing wrong with posting cute kitties.

But you became genuinely agitated and lashed out because apparently you did.

Again, I hope you self reflect on all of this and choose to stop embracing the antisocial cat lady stereotype.

And you having the fragile ego of a pathological narcissist is why you're lashing out at complex trauma survivors and making demands about how they use their Bluesky account.

You could have chosen to take your own advice, mute them, and move along.

But they made you feel guilty, didn't they?

29.07.2025 13:46 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 2    πŸ“Œ 0

I mean, you just yelled at them for "demanding things of society" (when they didn't) and then turn around and do quite literally exactly that by demanding "everyone" set filters and take breaks from social media.

It's the classic psychological projection of a pathological narcissist.

29.07.2025 13:39 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

No, it is not their responsibility to set filters. It's their choice.

And who do you think you are to tell them and quite literally everyone else to set filters and take breaks from social media?

Truly, what makes you believe that owning a cat gives you that right or even rational reason?

Some idiotic employers are hoping to replace human jobs with generative AI models, but most realize that's absurd.

Smart employers realize they can replace some expensive mid- and late-career pros with cheaper early-career pros leveraging LLM tech to do equivalent or often better work.

Anti-AI extremists are right that LLMs aren't yet qualified to replace them or anyone else.

But, by refusing to become skilled at using generative AI, they're ensuring that they - and anyone foolish enough to follow their AI abstinence lead - will get outcompeted in the market by those who do.

I'm definitely doing much better than you.

Of course, you only exist to collect and inflict crowd-sourced pain on others for profit and amusement - in this case targeting a complex trauma survivor - so yours isn't exactly a high bar to clear.

28.07.2025 14:30 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

I mean, you just made an argument - as blitheringly idiotic as it was - for why it's not just perfectly fine but actually good to attack complex trauma survivors.

"Fascsists are trauma survivors and it's good to attack fascists, so therefore it's good to attack trauma survivors."

You're just vile.

That is one of the most bizarre and pathetic victim-blaming rationalizations for attacking vulnerable complex trauma survivors that I've come across - and I've come across many in my decades as a lived experience as a complex trauma survivor and also as an advocate.

So I suggest you do some self reflection to discover both why it is you got so irrationally angry and how your anger then conjured up a fiction that rationalized itself through attacking a complex trauma survivor.

I see your angry little feelings told you that person demanded something of society, but all they said was exactly what you suggested - that they were going to use a filter (mute).

But you got deep into your self-righteous indignation and conjured up a fiction you could be mad at.

I empathize with folks in certain professions who've developed an extremist mentality regarding all things related to generative AI / large language models.

Also understand their emotional need to find and cultivate anti-AI extremist echo chambers.

But extremism always has terrible consequences.

Confirmation bias is a helluva drug.

Virtually no possibility this guy has substantial knowledge of psyops in general, how gen AI is a differentiated psyops tool, or the consequences of falling behind China and Russia - but he also absolutely believes his judgment here is not just valid but best.

Given all of the inanity on this here site, surely you can find folks to dunk on other than obvious trauma survivors, right?

You see a clown upset about people posting pictures of their cats.

I see someone overwhelmed with what's happening around them and wishes more folks took it all seriously.

For everyone befuddled as to how @lilashroff.bsky.social could possibly believe that devil worship is equivalent to murder, just realized she absolutely does not.

Her entire purpose here is to create amd spread an anti-AI extremist moral panic, not to act in good faith or otherwise make sense.

27.07.2025 13:45 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

To be fair... if your entire goal is to fire up a moral panic against something you don't like, manipulating religious folks with "it'll make your kids worship the devil" is as effective as it gets.

Wait... you genuinely didn't understand his point, did you? That's it, isn't it?

But you felt like you needed to support Vietor because, what?, you're a fanboy of his podcast? Or maybe you were one of those vile human beings supporting genocide until very recently?

Bless your guilt-ridden heart.

Fascinating that people like you don't just hush up after realizing your position is nonsense and, of course, abjectly refusing to ever acknowledge fault. Fragile ego has you saying any manner of nonsense other than "you're right."

We need to ensure, though, that minimization of risks does not continue to morph into internalized ableism, ableist gatekeeping, and - worst of all - shame campaigns against disabled and neurodivergent folks using AI-based assistive tools.

We are seeing a lot of that these days, right?

27.07.2025 12:36 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 0    πŸ“Œ 0

Stories written about disability AI tech by folks who profit from AI tech should come with warning labels.

Same is true of stories written by authors who feel persobally threatened by AI tools - especially considering how often their stories are excuses for gatekeeping AI assistive tools.

I really do wish people could be anti-ai without making fucked up dehumanising statements towards people with disabilities. You don't need to be demeaning towards people with different cognitive or physical ability than you. You can just say don't use GenAI.

"Monsters rule over us, on behalf of monsters"

This is something complex trauma survivors learned after seeking Justice in our "justice" system.

There is NO autism epidemic; we see more autistic people now due to better detection/awareness. Yet the media loves to both-sides this topic.

So, consider the sources: Epidemic-endorsers usually make $$ off autistic people &/or are ableist fucks. Epidemic-rejecters usually support autistic people.
