reminder that the Black Panther Party were communists and the Democratic Party fundamentally does not believe in the same things they did. that's why they will never, ever do this

You fight fire with water. A gerrymandering arms race is not going to end well for the Democrats. The whole rotten system needs to be torn down.

How Bad Will It Get? An honest answer.

it's weird walking around work, living my day-to-day life, having mind-numbing conversations about next week or next quarter, while the knowledge that in a few years this will all be gone lurks in my mind like a demon

95% of the time it's just an AI booster (though half of them lie through their teeth saying they're not) but with that other 5% it's like the vaguest, most eyeroll-inducing "criticism" you've ever seen

I jest, but the most powerful navy in the world wouldn't need to spend money advertising that fact on Youtube

Maybe they should've taken the money they spent on those Youtube ads about how they're "the most powerful navy in the world" and used it on safety features or training their pilots instead

I love Ronald Hutton to death but he did a little video talking about why vampires are the only "sexy" monster from folklore and in it as a counterexample he said something like "You don't see people wanting to have sex with werewolves" and I almost died laughing. Oh Ronald

we are sooo far past "tax the rich" as a solution for anything. That ship sailed in 2016. it's "sell your cloak and buy a sword" hours out here

remember that Game of Thrones quote where Littlefinger is like "Whose peace do the Gold Cloaks protect? The man who pays them."

??? seems relevant

Keeping the House Absent, Johnson Marginalizes Congress and Himself

I think we have to acknowledge now that Madisonβ€˜s central insight in federalist no. 10 has failed entirely. The interests of the office do not determine the interests of the officeholder. www.nytimes.com/2025/10/25/u...

They were! They were seriously expressing an emotion that they feel. They also 1.) didn't say what you said they said; and 2.) don't actually think they could destroy LLMs with a baseball bat. If you could dedicate more than 10% of your brainpower, etc., you would be able to figure that out

there's no progress to be made. this is what liberalism is, always has been, and always will be. liberals need to be encouraged to move beyond liberalism

"we should eradicate LLMs" is an emotional expression. Random Bluesky posts are not a representative sample of anything other than the people you interact with on Bluesky. I am militantly anti-AI, as are many people I know, and none of us literally think we can smash the technology out of existence

I never said anything about it being an "isolated occurrence." try to focus here. Actual serious policies do not fit into 300 characters. People posting "we should firebomb a walmart" (which very few people ever actually did) are expressing an emotion, not proposing serious actions

you've confused a clearly exasperated and hyperbolic bluesky post made by a random internet person expressing frustration with a comprehensive policy position representative of a serious political tendency or social movement. it's okay, happens to the best of us

24.10.2025 18:58 β€” πŸ‘ 0    πŸ” 0    πŸ’¬ 1    πŸ“Œ 0

in that it's an action that basically nobody on earth is seriously calling for, but rather a strawman a bunch of feckless capitulationists made up to dismiss the idea of taking material action against oppressive systems? yeah, good analogy

You'd have to get the majority of Democratic politicians to stop taking bribes first. good luck lol
