I am open to this form of sealioning whenever the mood takes you!

Reality isn’t neutral, facts are objective. If there’s something that different stances on and both be personally correct then it’s an opinion.

Weird that the summary on Indigenous relations for the Cons completely omits Rustad wanting to back out of the UN Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous People.
It only puts Democrats in a bind if they continue to be corporate lapdogs - if they respond with outrage at the treatment of workers it’ll work in their favor.
Guess which one I expect Democrats to do?
Rule 5- No baiting or sealioning or promoting an agenda.
Questions which, instead of being of an innocuous nature, are specifically intended (based on reports and in the opinion of our crack moderation team) to bait users into ideological wars on charged political topics will be removed and the authors warned - or banned - depending on severity.
Asking someone to explain Sealioning is Sealioning and bait - in case you’re legitimately ignorant here’s Wikipedia: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sealioning
Trump can’t seem to stop talking about fucking windmills can we just send them every clip and news article of that windbag entirely unlabeled?
Absolutely, but it’s important to measure lies by their impact - this is a rather irrelevant lie while “Hatians are eating your pets” caused an outbreak of xenophobia and domestic terrorism.
Both are bad - one is clearly worse.
This requires, first, that Trump suck all the media oxygen out of the air so Harris has fewer opportunities to define herself positively.
Americans who have become overwhelmed by the chaos are tuning out politics altogether, especially in swing states where political advertising is nonstop. And as they tune out both Trump and Harris, Trump is the beneficiary, because, again, he’s the devil they know.
In other words, Trump is running neck-and-neck with Harris not despite the mess he’s created over the last few weeks but because of it.
As always, Robert Reich delivers salient points…
He still does get the lion’s share of attention and he uses that continuous outrage cycle to delay getting negative attention from it.
I do somewhat disagree with this though:
Another is that the media is intentionally creating a nail-bitingly close race in order to sell more ads. But this can’t be right because, if anything, more Americans appear to be tuning out politics altogether.
Americans are tuning it out - but the media is really fucking slow to respond to shit so they’re continuing to play into the outrage ad strategy.
As a meta aside - please don’t use amp links.
Party at DeSantis’s mansion!
Like father like son.
Go ahead, Vance - lose the shit out of that debate!
Bacteria respond to stimuli. Would you call them intelligent?
I’m not certain - probably not but I’m not certain where to draw the line. A cat is definitely intelligent, so is a cow - the fact that I don’t think bacteria is intelligent might be a question of scale or de deanthropomorphism… but intelligence probably only emerges in multicellular organisms.
I won’t fight you on that hill but I also think you’re putting human intelligence on a pedestal that it doesn’t really deserve. Intelligence is just responding to stimuli and while current AI can’t rival human intelligence it’s not inconceivable it could happen in the next two generations.
Fuck yeah b-ham.
The US (at least by executive order which can always be rescinded) has an official policy not to assassinate foreign leaders:
https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Executive_Order_11905
(See also EO 12036 and EO 12333 for confirming the policy)
Placing a bounty on Putin would probably violate that EO…
More importantly, the US is really fucking hoping Putin dies of old age or is voted out domestically because direct confrontations may result in Putin pushing ze button and launching ze nukes.
Real players elevate their belts so they can run their pipelines directly on the ground because, and I can’t express this strong enough, fuck headlift with a rusty spork.
If more than half the country is insane then America is an insane country. The number of insane people seems to be around 35% right now - but if it did get above 50% then, well, we’re fucked. Do we admit America is a failed state or do we form an authoritarian liberal government to steer the population correctly inspite of the popular will.
That’d be a fucking hard question and I hope we don’t get there - as long as possible I’d like to believe in democracy.
AI is an extremely broad term - chatgpt and stable diffusion are absolutely within the big tent of AI… what they aren’t is an AGI.
Err, regarding the pregnancy registry I thought period tracking was included in P2025? That’s effectively pregnancy tracking.
