MARXISM TAUGHT ME WHAT SOCIETY WAS. I WAS LIKE A BLINDFOLDED MAN IN A FOREST, WHO DOESN'T EVEN KNOW WHERE NORTH OR SOUTH IS.
IF YOU DON'T
EVENTUALLY COME TO TRULY UNDERSTAND THE HISTORY OF THE CLASS STRUGGLE, OR AT LEAST HAVE A CLEAR IDEA THAT SOCIETY IS DIVIDED BETWEEN THE RICH AND THE POOR AND
RE
THAT SOME PEOPLE SUBJUGATE AND
EXPLOIT OTHER PEOPLE,
YOU'RE LOST IN A FOREST, NOT
KNOWING ANYTHING.

Nobody learned shit from Secret Wars using "AI" for their intro, huh?

Fuck this. Not watching it.

One of the most irritating things I frequently encounter from transphobes is oddly similar to anti-vaxxer logic. Namely, that scientific evidence which contradicts their opinion is simply dismissed outright. When confronted with evidence about gender identity, the response is always utter denial.

Wait so Zionists seriously expected everything to go back to how it was before and for everyone to start treating Israel like a normal country?

That's adorable.

Populism was never the issue

The issue was calling far-right politics "populism" which was not only inaccurate but euphemised and legitimised them as a so-called alternative to the status (while they aim to take the worst of it and push it further)

Yes, I'll keep banging on about this

As a transgender woman trying to just live a simple quiet life in the UK, I'm pretty well placed to say this paragraph is complete bullshit and this government are shameless liars as well as hateful bigots who are actively shutting me out of participation in society.

LLMs are doubly deceptive. Most people think that they can ask it a question and get an answer. The majority of the rest think that you can ask an LLM a question and it will return what an answer might look like, statistically.

But it's actually even worse. It doesn't "read" the prompt; it guesses.
