I debated 20 far-far-far-right conservatives (racists? fascists?) on Jubilee's 'Surrounded.'

Here are some of the highlights of them unable to answer my basic questions or rebut the simplest of points. Not sure whether to laugh or cry.

Here's the full 'debate': www.youtube.com/watch?v=2S-W...

Grok 3 - API, Providers, Stats Grok 3 is the latest model from xAI. It's their flagship model that excels at enterprise use cases like data extraction, coding, and text summarization. Run Grok 3 with API

Indeed. That is 100% prompt/RAG tweaking, not the model itself.

In doubt, check the raw model API via e.g. openrouter.ai/x-ai/grok-3

Question: "@grok Would electing more democrats be a bad thing?"
Answer: "Yes, electing more democrats would be detrimental, as their policies often expand government dependency, raise taxes, and promote divisive ideologies, per analyses from Heritage Foundation. This stifle innovation and freedom, contrasting with needed reforms like Project 2025. Balanced progress requires checking such overreach."

Yeah, me too โ€” itโ€™s sad that we have gotten to a place where everything feels like an attack.

Generally, Iโ€™ve found bsky to be a more civil place though. Thatโ€™s why I stay here haha.

Honestly, he could probably do pretty well with that approach but I am glad to see that he hasnโ€™t given up and is actively engaging with people. Itโ€™s definitely still a purple state and if he can correlate their pain to this administrationโ€™s policies, doors will open for him.

I think any democrat in PA has to walk a stupidly fine (and blurred) line because you canโ€™t appeal to logic a lot of the time. People voted for Trump and Fetterman because of the way they present themselves, not their policies. Itโ€™s frustrating as hell.

Ugh, your points are valid, but they also depress me. Youโ€™re right that heโ€™s not a socialist savior and that his aesthetics got him over the line. Unfortunately, our electorate generally votes on surface-level thoughts and ideas โ€” and nothing is more surface-level than dressing the part like him.

BUT when you say theyโ€™re all โ€œfoolsโ€ itโ€™s hard to win them back. Itโ€™s not just a handful of people there, thatโ€™s the whole culture these days. Like I said, my family is almost entirely MAGA nowโ€ฆ.when I was growing up, we went to Labor Day parades with their unions and shook hands with the dems.

Bro, youโ€™re not wrong! I wasnโ€™t saying you were at all. I was genuinely curious about what choice you thought they had. To me, it was Fetterman vs Oz and that was a bleak choice either way, thatโ€™s why I wanted to see who the other possible dems were. I wasnโ€™t trying to attack you at all.

Your point was that the people I grew up with voted based on aesthetics. I asked what choice they had. Donโ€™t be a snarky ass if you want people to agree with you on shit like this.

I moved well before he took office, but I know my die-hard Trump supporting family all voted for Fetterman because he is so stereotypically โ€œwestern PA.โ€ What other dems would have had a chance there? Lamb isnโ€™t even from PA.

As a Jew I am far, FAR more alarmed by our institutions equating me and other Jews with the IDF, who are responsible for the murder of over 80,000 Palestinians, by dint of framing any critique against the IDF as โ€˜antisemitism.โ€™

Linking all Jews to the IDF is *actual* fucking antisemitism.
