Liberal and progressive content is also just not spicy, compelling, and addictive enough to create huge loyal consumer bases.

There could never be a left-wing Alex Jones. MSNBC (or whatever it is now) was and will never be anything like Fox News because that shite doesn't sell much over here.

There's some truth to that, but I think the fundamental reality is that there just aren't that many progressives and liberals who are into regular rage- and/or conspiracy- and/or culty-content consumption.

I mean, if we bought into all that ridiculousness, we'd be Republicans.

Let's also recognize that progressive and liberal content and beliefs just aren't as spicy, so it doesn't make for compelling, addictive consumption.

There simply isn't much of an audience for a left-wing Alex Jones. We'd watch a couple times for fun and move on. Just not our jam.

btw, yes, of course you can be disabled and racist.

Just like you can be Black and ableist; Asian and Islamophobic; Latino and misogynist; Female and homophobic... every bigotry is in every group, even as internalized bigotry within members of the same group.

Part 2.

Really hope you do listen and genuinely take it in so you can stop assassinating the character of a disabled person simply for being disabled.

I promise ableism isn't any better than racism.

It has nothing to do with their beliefs or thoughts or filter or any of the other nonsense some have been ignorantly throwing out there.

You know what? You're probably not going to hear me because I'm Latino and neurodivergent, so maybe listen to her?

You clearly don't have any idea what coprolalia Tourette's is, so how could you possibly believe you know anything about what goes through any of their heads, much less any specific one?

Coprolalia TS causes you to involuntarily say just about the worst thing possible to someone.

"People do not blurt out what was not in their learned vocab anyway."

So... you have to be racist to have learned about the existence of the N-bomb?

That's just silly considering basically all of us have all of the major slurs in our "learned vocab," right?

What are we doing here?

Some pretty commonly known and accepted stuff about racism, a reasonable part about the BAFTA'S and BBC needing to do more, followed up by ableist nonsense. Full transcript, if you want it: I get that John Davidson has Tourette's, but [the host] apologizing to the audience and not [Jordan] and Delroy Lindo is problematic. Per usual, Black folks just have to take being embarrassed and disrespected so that everyone else can feel comfortable," wrote journalist Jemele Hill. "And sorry, Davidson shouldn't be invited to these spaces because he's had these outbursts before and it puts everyone in an awkward position. His inclusion shouldn't be prioritized over the well-being of the other guests." • Save I Share

While I agree with the first half, BAFTA and BBC fumbled it, the second half is gross, unacceptable and ableist. I’m shocked Hill doesn’t recognize this dangerous reasoning can and has been used to keep black folks (and others) suppressed.

All parties deserve dignity and respect. Davidson included.

This fool has been running the same tired old nonsense all week long as though all of the issues haven't been explained to him many times in many different ways.

Just has to be a either an AI bot or a broken human who finds joy in harassing and smearing neurodivergent and disabled folks.

But an auto-renewing apology for NT's involuntary harms makes no sense because they're so rare and therefore not a genuine burden on them.

So, yeah, we really need a lot deeper and nuanced thinking from everyone - disabled and not - regarding apology expectations for Tourette's folks.

I've spent a lot of time with TS folks with coprolalia and have had some vicious things said to me and even some slaps and kicks.

It would've been ridiculous for me to expect them to stop and apologize every time.

They apologized once and it was automatically renewed each time something happened.

Because TS folks regularly harm folks involuntarily and there's no way they can completely avoid it, everyone should have more grace and not expect TS folks with coprolalia to keep apologizing over and over and over

We should be able to let the less-impactful harms slide, which we wouldn't with NTs

I'm not saying Tourette's folks should be immune from apologies, but they shouldn't have the same redress expectations that NT's have because NT's just don't offend / harm people involuntarily that often.

for some situations involving ND-to-NT harm - like, say, coprolalia Tourette's folks offending NT folks - they would have to do this quite literally dozens if not hundreds of times every. single. day.

It's simply not reasonable to expect that of them. There needs to be a more nuanced approach.

One of the problems with neurotypical folks is their lack of nuanced thinking and assumption that social expectations for neurodivergents should be the same as for them.

Yes, in NT-to-NT harms, this "moral responsibility to intentionally acknowledge or address the harm to resolve it BUT...

It seems like a lot of these people simply haven't taken their Tourette's thought experiments far enough to see what life is like when you're constantly apologizing to just about everyone just about all the time.

At some point it absolutely does begin to feel like apologizing for existing.

Because now anyone with even an hour or two of solid training and access to a $20/month model can crank out really nice compositions in virtually any style they want with just 2-4 iteration runs.

Thing about that is you seem to be working off of LLM knowledge from 2023 because that's effectively what you described.

At best, you'll only catch the low-income / non-privileged / socio-economically-disadvantaged students without LLM training or access to the better models.

A lot of problems in this country could be solved simply by eliminating our political duopoly to have a genuine multi-party system.

Nothing to do with "thinking" or "likely" because it's been documented repeatedly that not only do these tragically inept AI writing detectors falsely flag neurodivergent writing, they do the same to neurotypical writing and also routinely miss AI-generated writing.

"That's a false choice..."

Huh? What choice?

You're not crying now, are you?

Okay, well... This is starting to feel too much like punching down so I'm going to move along and let you begin self-reflecting on your life choices

I wish you luck, and hope you have learned something here today: disabled folks aren't always good bullying targets.

I mean, you're clearly running at least those two accounts and probably more, so maybe this is just like a 6th-grade debate exercise for you?

Go out into the real world and make an ass out of yourself multiple times simultaneously to harass what you think are vulnerable disabled folks?

Do you really believe you're doing well here?

Are you working on a jr high debate class assignment or something?

How many bad life decisions do you have to make to end up running a "show more replies" Bluesky account?

C'mon... Hurry up because I'm getting bored already.

I know you anti-AI goofies aren't the brightest bulbs on the strip club sign, but you are not cut out for this life if it takes you this long.

I can do this all day, lil buddy. It's going to be your bedtime after a while, though, so you best run whatever ridiculous little game you believe you have so that you can sit up all night trying to figure out where it all went so wrong.

Oh, lil buddy, I know you really hoping to upset me and make me angry, but it's just not the case.

Being neurodivergent with Complex PTSD, I have a tendency to info dump and over-explain.

And that last part you wrote there is unintelligible gibberish so maybe unplug and then plug yourself back in?

I'm neurodivergent, and I I know plenty about Tourette's but if I can get an LLM to package up my thoughts and knowledge into Blue sky post size bits, then that's what the fuck I'm going to do.

So calm you happy ass down and stop telling folks what they are and are not prepared for.
