There is no more decorum. Do not aim high when they go low. Talk about them exactly how they deserve to be talked to. We had years of “civil” conversation and they upped their rhetoric. It didn’t work and it will never work.
This is exactly how everyone on the left should talk about conservatives.

The only truly ethical response that a self-described artist can make. Anything else is a betrayal of one's colleagues.
“I am not interested, nor will I ever be interested. I'm 61, and I hope to be able to remain uninterested in using it at all until I croak. ... The other day, somebody wrote me an email, said, ‘What is your stance on AI?’ And my answer was very short. I said, ‘I'd rather die.’” 🫡
Filmmaker Guillermo del Toro says 'I'd rather die' than use generative AI
Del Toro's new Frankenstein adaption reimagines Mary Shelley's 1818 Gothic novel. Frankenstein was like a tech bro: "creating something without considering the consequences," he explains.

what makes Hollow Knight and Silksong soulslikes, more than the difficulty or the combat or parries or dodging, its their consistent and continuous theme of civilizational collapse and grotesque abuse of power from those at the top of the power hierarchy.
