So weird how laws never seem to protect the weaker party from the stronger one, only ever enabling stricter repression.

The only solution is to add more laws

This is why you just use a bike

Downthread has proven that they should go in bike lane, but only if you ride bike in ball.

No, this is the much cooler solution. And what political opposition is for.

Their irrational plague rat intransigence has gifted us, in a Nietzschean sort of way, with a better world.

Why would you do that?

Thry dont have breasts though. We need to fix this.

No, but those people statistically have less disposable income, and less flexibility in their lives, so it’s no great loss.

So really you were just letting the world know about cc #s that had been leaked!

The OP meme, suggwsting your coffee maker and guy on top left of meme may keep some symbolic representation of the passage of time, but lacks an understanding of what that is.

I’ve been lurking hereish for a while things just weren’t spicy enough to assume i wouldn’t be banned after a first post.

Wow, automatically going to the authorities when someone has the faintest roughness or sense of humor. Such commitment to and deep understanding of anarchist values!

I hope, someday, you’re the person who has my back in a cop riot. That will make me feel nice and cozy.

Generally: saying ‘ima get drunk and go a’whorin, wanna come with, maybe fuck after if we both fail at that second part?’ Is fine.

Saying ‘that vile fucking whore sold out the entire cult! I thought we believed in something!’ Is shitty and a slur degrades sex workers

‘Nope, gotta go whore myself out to walmart for a few hours, because i need to pay rent and haven’t found the market for hot-in-the-right-light burn victims. Yet. Wish me a pimp that doesn’t steal my money!’ Would generally be nodded to by sex workers

I missed the word ‘it’ and agreed. Now i feel like afool. But yes.

Or the fun part.

Yeah that would be fucking wild. I’m glad i cant even really imagine what that would be like.

Please dont compare soldiers who would shoot civilians to sex workers. I’ve only ever met one sex worker who would do that, and even he wouldn’t have abdicated agency.

Edit: he would also need to be paid in advance. Paid a lot more than any national guard soldier.

So… Monarchy? Oligarchy? What’s your solution?

Because im pretty sure i take offense. How dare you tell me i don’t deserve either autonomy or an equal voice in my governance.

No. No there’s no civil disagreement on that point. Even the fucking tankies have the pretense of democratic centralism.

The thing is, the way these models are created is inherently conservative. When used they privilege the past, the what-has-come-before.

This is bad. Not that i can’t see hypothetical use cases this technology is genuinely good for.

But the hype has completely swamped any real utility they could be put to. The marketing efforts of companies like every-single-corporation-ever have created in many a misunderstanding that borders on religion, and utterly obliterated any genuine public utility for this technology. Like modifying the perameters of reality so every time a scalpel touches solid matter, it explodes in a colossal mushroom cloud, obliteratimg the entire city.

This technology is also being used as a kind of abdication machine. A way to build an unaccountable black box to excuse the poor behavior of the powerful-zionist militants use it to say their bombs target militants, judges use it to call their racist bullshit impartial, cops use it to get warrants without evidence.

The eliza effect convinces people a couple lines of language processing is a person, and convinces many that this shit is a god. Literally. It exposes and exploits mental illness like a network attack script does outdated firewalls. It operates in and upon all the blind spots our sick society requires we maintain, lest we rebel or go mad.

It is an incubator of mental illness, a dehumanizing force, and defender of all abuse. To say nothing of its effects on our collective concept of ‘truth’, which i cant even start on right now, but suffice to say that it’s become thoroughly fucked.

The ways it can and always seems to be applied simultaneously to enshittification and the disciplining of labor are reducing standards of living. It functions very well as a machine for making people accept less.

Maybe a better society of better people could use this as a neat niche tool, a fun toy, and an aid to make some knowledge work go faster.

But every part of who we are and how we are organized makes this shit toxic for us. Maybe even more toxic than the fossil fuels we’re burning and water tables we’re depleting to run these fucking things.

‘Democracy’ does not mean ‘first past the post election of a single executive agent, pre-vetted by local oligarchs.’

The inability to imagine, see in history, or see in the world today other systems of decision making by the people reads as unimaginative to the point of being disingenuous bad faith bullshit.
