Yeah, for sure. Let's have that conversation. But it begins with everybody who is serious agreeing not to believe everything in the AI companies' pitch deck.
AI may someday be a net good, but so far it's bad at arithmetic and good at encouraging suicide.

We’re chasing the outrage of the day while a tidal wave of tech change reshapes wages, productivity, and inequality. Can we please have the grown‑up conversation about how to harness AI for broadly shared prosperity?

The U.S. bishops defended migrant families. Tom Homan snapped. Nan Hayworth called Pope Leo a “tool of our enemies.” Tim Burchett accused the church of getting rich off of sex trafficking.
Matt Walsh, Lara Logan, and the rest joined in. This is what MAGA anti-Catholicism looks like.

“Pope Leo Is a Tool of Our Enemies”: Homan Leads MAGA Attacks as Hayworth, Others Pile On
It’s the latest MAGA attack on Pope Leo’s pro-immigrant stance. Disgraced border chief Tom Homan — caught taking a $50,000 bribe in a Cava takeout bag — led the charge against Leo and the bishops.

People like @len-1977.bsky.social need to learn that when they say opposing genocide is antisemitic, what they're saying, by extension, is that genocide is inherently Jewish.
Personally, I'm not sure that's a connection I'd care to make.

Your original point was wrong though.
I don't know why these people want you to believe the same people who rioted to defend their right to rape prisoners under their custody wouldn't pull a woman's hair.

This might be the most ignorant post I've seen in a week.
The process that led to the Oslo accords was led by Norway, not the US. It's *why* they are called the Oslo accords.
S-tier stupidity.

Also the Palestinian authority was created as a result of the U.S.-led Oslo accords and is funded in large part by the U.S. state department so the criticisms that the U.S. hasn’t done what these countries are doing shows you don’t know what you’re talking about
