  • I was hanging out on some conservative forums when the news came out and almost universally people were pissed saying it’s an overreaction to what they call the “overreach during COVID.” And I’m sitting there reading these comments and thinking to myself that these people are so anti Democrat and anti “woke” that they seemingly have selectively forgotten that this is exactly what people were warning them about. They were legitimately surprised that this has happened and were in denial that this administration would do something like this.

    These are the people that we are up against. They are ignorant and so angry at Democrats that they will literally forget that they were warned about this exact scenario. And the reason I bring this up is because they are ignorant, but they are not universally stupid and can actually think for themselves when given the chance. And we should use opportunities like this to educate them instead of saying “haha you get what you voted for.”


  • Well, you should have a problem with it but not for the reasons you think. Any invasion of privacy is an issue when the people in control get to decide what is a reportable offense without explicitly telling you. I get it, you definitely shouldn’t be admitting anything illegal or asking illegal advice from a chat bot. You shouldn’t be doing anything that is illegal in the first place.That’s basically the same as googling how to make a bomb and if you’re that dumb you’ll get what’s coming to you. The issue arrives when you look at the bigger picture. If they have the ability to report anything they want to the police, what’s stopping them from releasing anything they want to anyone they want at any time? And when it comes to those receiving the data that’s been reported, what proof do you have that these entities have yours or anyone else’s interests or safety in mind? What if they decide to change the rules on what they should report, they don’t tell you, and then retroactively flag a bunch of your conversions with said LLM.

    It’s the same kinda situation that we face with these AI cameras that track us and our vehicles literally everywhere we go. There have already been multiple cases where people in law enforcement were using these tools to stalk people like ex girlfriends. All this is putting a lot of trust into people that none of us even know and expect them to have the best of intentions. What would stop them from reporting that you asked ChatGPT about the current situation in Gaza?







  • Take a step back from the fascism, human rights violations, kidnappings, and concentration camps and just think about the fact that these people are in charge of the government. Regardless of politics, these people are just objectively stupid and have virtually no understanding of anything outside of knowing how to give speeches and spread propaganda.

    I know things are bad and will continue to get worse before they get better, but I do take some solace in the fact that these people are so incredibly stupid that they will never be able to run a productive or efficient government. It’s like watching as your boss makes his son a manager and seeing everything go to shit around him.







  • Wow, someone that is actually acting like a world leader instead of just bending over in advance and making a fool out of themselves.

    Watching people like Keir Starmer around Trump is painful and I hope he loses sleep over how much of an embarrassment he is. And if I remember correctly, Starmer literally bent over for him at the G7 summit. Or when Starmer was talking during Trump’s visit last week and Trump literally said “enough” while he was talking and Starmer just shut up.

    Edit: I was wrong about the second one. Apparently it was back in February and in context it was actually addressed towards the reporter that asked a question and not Starmer. See? Propaganda works both ways. :)
