Going to see them this tour?

Man, when it's old white dudes that are targeted, you're gonna be upsettttttt

This has been a really fascinating thread!

Batman breaking a gun labeled “AI” in 2 pieces. Batman says “THIS IS THE WEAPON OF THE ENEMY. WE DO NOT NEED IT. WE WILL NOT USE IT.”

You are absolutely correct. Generative AI is itself part of the enemy. It steals art from artists, it destroys the planet, and it profits fascists.

I guess we could always just give up.

I hate that I used to subscribe to you.

Folks assuming we'll have another Nuremberg need to read up on the My Lai Massacre. :/

Stay tuned for ways Indivisible ATL is planning to support local mutual aid networks.

With love to my fellow leftists: let's not turn this into an argument about feline mathematical capacity! <3

Same! It was a widely promoted cute tshirt company and no mention of either origin or tariffs. No idea what it'll cost me yet - probably not much, but totals out to a price I wouldn't have paid.

What's your sign?
