This is Texas

Hang him

I’m not even kidding. This guy is amongst the worst of the worst of the world, he has no redeeming qualities. This guy’s actions always end up with dead Innocens. Please get rid of him, humanity willl thank you.

Investigate what? Why it was cool?

This is just your typical Republican made up bullshit to make their base think something bad happened.

Nothing bad happened

And now PLEASE don’t fuck it up.

Don’t try crazy things, just be in power and slowly make small incremental improvements. Please don’t be a fraud, please don’t do something stupid.

I fucking guarantee you that this isn’t even about squeezing the last dome put of it, this is a direct attack in democracy

Not that the WP was such a great defender, but I bet good money that loads of these journalists will now be replaced with yes-man editors who all day just write what the regime wants.

Fuck fascism, fuck fascists

With 40% semiconductor capacity loved to the US, the US will have no more reason to defend Taiwan, it would be suicide

Also, when trump gets his grubby hands on ASML systems you can count on it that he’ll sell it to the Chinese for a few millions right after

Yet the fascists control the country

I mean, good for him, great that so many people, pretty much half the fucking population supports him, and a tiny amount supports the fascists.

With that said, where are these fuckers when the protests are there? Has any of you Americans looked at what is happening in Milan? That is for ice too, and adjusted for size, it’s been a hundred times the response in the USA. ICE doesn’t round up italians, but look at those protests!

In the US there has been nothing. Sorry, not sorry, fuck your “no kings” protests, those were nothing and they were laughingly ignored. Why? HELLOOOOO, THESE ARE FASCISTS, THEY DONT GIVE A FUCK.

People are being abducted from the streets by thugs AND YOU LET THEM. How about with the next attempt you surround ice with thousands of people. Armed people. Don’t be aggressive, but protest and do NOT allow them to walkmorndrove away with the victims.

Yes, I understand that people are walking a very fine tightrope here, nobody wants a civil war, but these fuckers are pushing for civil war, whether you like it or not. I’m not saying to start a war, but I’m saying that you need to STAND YOUR FUCKING GROUND. DO JOT LET THEM ABDUCT A SINGLE INNOCENT PERSON MORE.

Europeans can do this, Americans can do this. The Americans are always the ones moaning about the heroes who will not leave a man behind, wlbut you’re leaving fucking men women and children behind. BE AMERICAN, FFS, STAND UP ALREADY

I hate it so much that these dystopian devices are all advertised as a positive thing and, worst of all, that there are millions of dumbasses going “well that sounds like a great idea!”

And this is what the rich want.

A subdued slave population that will barely have enough to survive whilst they thrive in riches

Wealth caps, NOW

Any wealth and income over a million dollar? 100% to taxes. No more millionaires, no more people hoarding riches. Governments will again have the money so that it can be used for free healthcare, free education, you name it

Again FFS

Why does nobody understand even the basics of AI?

Yes, there are good applications

Yes, AI has potential access to every information out there

Also yes, AI WILL make shit up and fuck up a good 50odd% of the time

NEVER trust AI. Bebe it for your homework or operation on a patient. It’s great when AI gives you tips and hits, it’s great to function as a rubber ducky, but if you even once blindly trust on what AI wants to do, you’ll be fucked at best, dead at worst.

DO NOT TRUST AI DAMMIT

That is a damn near perfect description of this event, I’m loving it

So a billionaire’s decision to help an invading country resulted in thousands of casualties

Ban the rich, wealth caps now! Nobody should have a networth over millions, nobody should be allowed to hoard so much wealth for just themselves to use in evil ways

Anything over a million goes to tax

Eh, no?

I still haven’t seen AI produce anything remotely reliable within a single function, let alone put multiple functions together, let alone build something with multiple classes, let alone something actually useful, let alone a big project

Yeah, AI got useful as a rubber Ducky. I use it for getting a sense of possible directions, maybe a fresh idea I hadn’t considered sometimes. It saves me from opening up DDG and Ctrl-clicking the first ten results to check all the pages, sometimes.

But the AI coder inside my IDE still gets code confidently wrong about 70% of the time, and we’re talking single lines here and the mistakes are fundamental, like variables that haven’t been initialized.

Having said that, I’m sure that someday someone will.come up with an AI that can do real development and that day it’ll be able to develop itself and that day we’ll all be properly fucked because that will really quickly delve into something we can’t control and something more intelligent than all of us.

I’m sure some tech bros can’t wait for that to happen and I honestly believe we need to rid the world of these idiots before they doom and destroy us all.

That’s kinda of what I meant; fuck China, Winnie Pooh is evil, but they’re working hrlard in their image now, and trump is making that easy

Let Nvidia go bankrupt, we won’t miss it

The Cheeto is pissing in their faces and they’re all collectively screeching “Yes, raaaiiinnnn, thank you Lord!”

Oh noes, so they went from paying almost nothing to just basically paying nothing at all?

Fuck these assholes, bring in the guillotines

I was there

Gamer gate started out as literally gamers being pissed about fraudulent game reviews before it got overrun by right wing assholes

I guess it was similar to occupy Wall Street that got overrun by leftist extremists that started adding so much other crap on top of the basic message that was intended that nothing happened except rich coked up banket laughing at them from a balcony

But yeah, gamergate was not organized with that intent, the actual initial intent was to get honest game reviews

Ten years ago I was a bit Reddit commenter. I saw the left’s YouTube videos, I saw how all the subs there became echo chambers, banning anyone who dared have an opinion that wasn’t left of Stalingrad.

I remember because the years ago I repeatedly warned people. Where do you think that these pretty normal people will go? They’ll go to more welcoming places like dat right fora, and get radicalized into the right.

That is my accusation to the left: you fucked up badly by pushing out anyone who just wanted to have a conversation instead of agreeing without question.

You pushed these people right into the camp of a then bumbling idiot who had some charisma and who tirelessly complained about these stupid leftist antics that they hated too, so they joined team trump.

And here we are today.

Yeah, I remember, and yeah, you’re right.

Expect down votes like there is not tomorrow. People didn’t like hearing this 10 years ago and they don’t like it today either.

Of cour rape is bad but if you day that not all men are rapists, you get people staring at you like you’re the devil and you get accused of being a rapist for saying that.

I remember them hollowing out the word rapist. I remember the woman accusing this guy of rape because they both stayed late drinking at the hotel bar and when they went up, in the elevator, the guy asked the girl if she wanted to come to his room for a nightcap. She said no, he went to his room alone. Clearly rape! Of course she claimed that on YouTube but not with the police because reasons.

I haven’t forgotten the crap that came from the left back then. I also haven’t forgotten all those people that flocked to trump because of the behavior of so many on the left.

Of course, the left was behaving obnoxious and toxic, but they weren’t terrorists. Mostly. That is of course for as long as you didn’t get the nazi label on you, because then they might actual hurt you, and getting that Nazi label back then was sooooo easy. Just step slightly out of the party line, have a slightly less extreme opinion and tag, you’re it.

Hey, I’m suddenly thinking that at least that improved now! Now the word nazinis at least used for, you know, actually neo nazi wannabe losers

These fuckers are the reason trump won the first time back then, they pushed so many people to the right. But if you’re waiting for some self reflection from them, some “maybe we shouldn’t have cheapened the word rape?”, or “maybe we shouldn’t accuse people of rape, especially when we know they didn’t do anything wrong” you can wait a long, long time.

Oohh, now reminds me of this scientist, a Nobel laureate that made some joke, some reporter made a huge deal out of that joke being mysogenistic, it went viral, he had to quit his job over a random little joke he made and then of course it turned out that the reporter made it all up. At least she apologized profusely and did everything she could to make it right. Nah, I’m kidding, nothing was done, no apologies, fuck that guy, he is a white male, and fuck those guys, right?

Reminds me of that time when a bunch of guys organized a meeting to talk about male suicide. You know, a place where those that are left behind van talk about what happened, try to give eachother support. So a feminist group thought it a great idea to stand outside and harrass and taunt all the guys going in. I still recall the (paraphrased) “I’m happy your brother died, one less white guy” type comments.

Yes. We now live in a nazi world, and yes, it’s bad and yes, these people are evil. But FFS, how hard can it be to take some accountability for pushing normal people towards this? You pushed them put of every conversation. You banned them from all the normal forums with normal people. So of course they went to other places because what else could they do? And they found a welcoming place in right wing fora and flourished and everybody patted themselves on their backs because they got another “nazi” out and another step closer to having an echo chamber where nobody disagrees.

Yes, we live in a horror show today, and yes, you, left, started it a decade ago.
