the people of Maine, bizarrely
a fan of his claims to have trapped his soul in an AI podcast on the passing of his material form
he has also told Gilbert guys family he will never relinquish his control of Cyber Dilbert
half the point of the global war on terror was to encircle China by land
you may recall some noise being made about the Uighurs at some point: that is the term for the part of China that borders Afghanistan
we were quite upset our plan of foisting the problem of the Taliban off on them didn't work
what part of giving North Korea more money to do whatever they want with do you think would improve the geopolitical situation
he is the single most elected person in Israeli history. his face has more right to be on the Israeli flag than the Star of David does.
and had an economy based entirely on EDM and godawful pizza restaurants, yes
you can stop paying Netanyahu to humiliate you at any point, friend. that has been an option on the table for a quarter century now. noted communist George W. Bush had considerable success with it.
as the warrior's mind must always be filled with thoughts of death, the poster must always consider mpreg sonic
is the father Barney the Dinosaur? former attorney general Homer Stille Cummings? folk sensation Roger Whittaker? his own self from the future? or perhaps even the past?
much to ponder

feeling completely left behind by a changing world probably doesn't hurt the cause there
its the joy of modern social media: the question is which flavor of genocide apologia you find most insufferable
the Zizians are a fascinating case study in techbrain
when you combine the unwillingness of AI to tell people "no" and the unwillingness of socially awkward nerds to tell their friend groups online "no" you go to some horrifyingly solipsistic places very quickly
it helps to know when you're dealing with someone whose brain has been deep-fried enough that "we call ourselves Sith unironically and are willing to kill over it" registers as no biggie

in these fallen times, some few still post with honor
that you'd prefer not to be talking about the guy you came in here to defend, in his noble crusade to protect his boss's money, is fully understood, friend.
unfortunately he's still there.
i'm sorry you think you have to make everyone's life around you measurably worse in the hopes that some day one of your tech overlords builds God for you

turns out i don't need to give you the ability to generate pictures of pregnant sonic on demand in order to have that kevin
and hey, weird coincidence, the guy who is paid to defend his boss's investments in AI is here insisting you should REALLY stop saying things that cost him money.
don't you know your place, peasant?
we differ on the utility of you being able to generate revenge porn on command Kevin
and why my electrical bill should go up 20% so you can do that
and when they say that the most urgent problem to be corrected with AI is those darned serfs saying that its water usage is something they're worried about, do you put that in the true column or the false column.
and what does reality tell you, about the guy who is paid to defend his boss's investment portfolio, demanding you to please stop saying all these annoyingly expensive things, friend.
is it "yeah I can definitely take whatever he says at face value"
none of which our pal will speak about, in favor of instead demanding those goddamned serfs shut up about the costs his paymasters are inflicting on the little people, in the name of making themselves more money.
isn't it neat.
if only these darned serfs could be stopped from impairing the investments of their betters, we could turn this whole thing around!
"no, really, my liege-lord is the good one."
sorry, man. this is serf-brain.
what are those reasons, oh, I'm sure they exist somewhere offscreen. but you really must stop saying these things that are hurting his boss's investment portfolio first, and we'll get around to addressing those second.
we have to be effective, in our activism, after all :)
Panglossianism, baybee! assure the worried upper-middle that actually God wants them to be in their position of relative comfort, and assure the worried ruling class that nobody would ever dream of inconveniencing them
it's never right, of course, but it's never unpaid.
that's nice. are you enjoying the Effective Altruist insisting that if we hurt his boss's investment portfolio that's bad for the human race actually
missed it, i'm afraid
EA is a mechanism to assure worried tech dorks that whatever is best for their bosses is what's best for the world.
they are not string-pullers, but people trying to convince themselves that having their strings pulled is good, noble, and they like it.
like most cult members
yeah, Bill Gates wrote the book on this one. it turns out if you put together a charitable foundation to promote your own investment portfolio you cut the overhead significantly by not having to pay any taxes.
