people on here apparently need to learn a lesson most of us learn in elementary school, which is that it’s fucking rude to correct people on zero stakes things and doing so leads rightfully to social ostracism

It’s a "crisis" when immigrants "take jobs away", but "innovation" when machines do. Funny.

Everyone on the fence about A.I., there's something you don't realize.

It's purpose is to eliminate human jobs and human skills.

That's it. That's its single purpose. For companies to no longer pay people or train them in skills.

Someone should start asking why we’re hearing and seeing Stephen Miller so much all of a sudden.

Any form of media that involves an angry man telling an audience what to be angry about for several hours a day is probably not good for the human brain

Virginia State Senate Dems just brought down fire and fury regarding the “Compact,” notifying the President and Rector that UVA would lose ALL STATE APPROPRIATIONS if it signs and cedes the University to “federal political control.” Notably, their letter directly restates points made here by @siva.

The “compact” for higher ed is an unserious document written by unserious people from a position of spectacular ignorance. No one should take it seriously. Sadly, my bosses are taking it seriously.

I genuinely think that Americans can’t be tear-gassed into loving a President or his policies, and that’s kinda what’s keeping me sane right now. They are performing for 4Chan meme lords right now to distract from how weak they are and it’s painfully obvious. Trump is actively dying.
