Yeah you genuinely COULD NOT make something more satirically patriotic that this. This is absolutely comical levels of pandering. It could not personify this quote any better “Fascism will come to to American in an American flag and topped with a cross”
Aight but has this EVER discouraged them?
Nope, the 1% is gonna gpbble everything up at fire sales. That’s why trump blows up the economy every other fucking month.
Hes destroying and devaluing it to steal it.
This will surely help their demographic crisis!
“Mothers, fathers, please work 6 days a week, 12 hours a day, while raising half a dozen children for the meat grinder”
I do a dry brine, making sure to measure out the salt to around 1% steaks weight so you DONT over salt it. It’s like packing it with salt, just a reasonable amount
At first glance I thought it read “suffer me or feed the consequences”. Honestly works out
I’ve been grappling this for a while now, and how to think about it. It’s so sad that just about every being has to constantly work and suffer to prolong their existence (which only consists of work and suffering).
To what extent should we avoid the suffering? To what extent should we embrace it? Prolong it? Are there different types of suffering? Are some more preferable to others? Is suffering to produce art, or other creative work, better than the suffering of menial labour or going hungry?
How much should your children suffer? Should they suffer rigorous education and studying, or should you only occupy yourself with providing for them? Should you provide them a wealth of knowledge of life lessons and wisdom, or try to build up the largest pile of inheritance you can?
Firstly, I don’t agree with anyone in this chain, but man… there are just some people who damn near physically incapable of learning.
There’s also the simple fact that a huge portion of the population just don’t care about politics or government. If “didn’t vote” was an option for eligible voters, it would have won every election in US history.
Its because you have to have a certain degree of apathy in nature. Apathetic enough not to drain yourself on distant others, but not so much you neglect your own kin and offspring.
These are such conditions that allow for a fascist takeover. It is THE fascist playbook, to fearmonger the safety of your children, and scapegoating it on others. Its your empathy that drives you to protect your children, and the apathy that pushes you to accept the persecution of minorities.
This is why fascism is so pervasive, it preys upon the biological workings of human psyche. This is what needs to be taught in schools rather than “a bunch of evil people got into power and killed everybody”
Holy shit, these type of people are the worst. My narcissistic mother is like this. Constantly asking for guidance for literally everything “grab me half a bulb of garlic” “how much is half?”. Then afterwards blaming you for giving her such a complicated task, and goes on and on about how the way you work is sooooo backwards, and that if she just did everything herself it’d be sooooo much simpler (she says as the dissects the garlic clove by clove, weighing each one as she gets the closest possible value to half the total weight).
It blurs the line of accountibility, and it provides the facade of super intelligence, leading to negligent use of it.
AI cannot be held accountable. It physically can’t. You can’t criminally charge, fine, or imprison an algorithm. IBM reasons that because of this, it should not hold any position of management, or make major decisions autonomously.
Despite that, we are constantly see being used in increasingly high stakes desicions, and advising of such. AI lawyers, politicians using it to communicate with their voters and “summarizing” their concerns, AI in HR management, AI professors (as well as professors using AI) and the list goes on. There is no recourse for malpractice in these scenarios, and allows bad actors to work with impunity. Nothing ever stopped anyone from spewing nonsense, that’s what freedom of speech is for, but the reputation of such peoples would be tarnished, theyd become outcasts in their field, and their writings disregarded. AI blurs that once again.
Closely related to the issue of liability, is the negligent use of AI. If someone wanted to create misinformation, they had to have malicious intent. Now, out of pure laziness, or profit driven desire, most content has become AI. With all of it its hallucinations and delusions included. Because AI training data now includes AI content, these delusions cause the model to become “inbred” which cause it repeat its own lies, until its regurgitated as fact.
This in turns causes a death of truth, and all profesions who hinge on providing the truth. Journalists, researches, scientists, publishers and writers of academic journals, as well as small communities of hobbyists, being drowned in misinformation about their own niche craft. It destroys and buries real, truthful and productive conversation, while hindering all intellectual progress.
Its existence is a fantasy for anti-intellectual actors, which include government, and large corporate entities who’s greatest enemy is a well informed, and educated public.
And people STILL think I’m weird weird for hating 11
You spin me round by dead or alive. Such a shame this is the only song they are known for, they have SO much other awesome stuff.
Samething with tubthumping by chumbawamba and come and get your love by redbone. SO much underrated tracks in their discography.
