You really think Biden will step in to protect the rights of people protesting Israel’s genocide of Palestinians, the one he has been facilitating for more than a year? Biden who takes significant amounts of money from pro-Israel organizations and has consistently sent Israel weapons throughout its attack on Gaza? Trump and Biden are pretty much aligned when it comes to supporting the genocide and wanting to silence the protestors, although their methods may differ.
This seems like a potential actual good use of AI. Can’t have been much fun to train it though.
And is there any risk of people turning these kinds of models around and using them to generate images?
There was a time when a history of rape allegations and a lack of experience or understanding would count against a candidate for public office. Now they’re requirements for being in the cabinet.
You do have a point there.
I think the Republicans call that “small government”.
One of the few areas Biden is really head and shoulders above the rest though.
You get that result if you set the filter to “all” election cycles, but not if you set it to one of the more recent ones. The “all” figure is influenced by the fact that Biden is old and has been through many election cycles.
Ah yes, I misunderstood, sorry. I’ll leave my other comment because it’s still a serious concern, and there will be people who think all research should be privately funded.
They’re not going to stop it, just seriously disincentivize it. Pulling billions of dollars of research funding and making it doubtful whether any developed vaccine can be sold in the USA will have a huge effect on the ability of academic institutions to do research and the willingness of corporations to do so.
And time for the USA to ban vaccines and infectious disease research, thanks to RFK Jr.
I don’t. I don’t like Musk at all, but this business of calling him a lady as an insult feels like we slipped back a few decades. It has a bad taste about it.
Can you give a citation for this strong evidence?
Pretty much everyone is. The Supreme Court basically ruled that laws don’t apply to the President.
Invading private homes with US Troops, looking for contraban (ie: illegal immigrants in this case) with mass warrants would be uncomfortable to even Republicans in these areas.
I agree that it’s worth trying. If Republicans can be persuaded that the “deep state” is becoming more intrusive it might provoke some questioning on their part. But I fear they would just retreat to “Those people must have done something to bring it upon themselves,” and “It won’t happen to me or my friends.” Until it does, when they’ll be shocked but also silenced.
the national level outrage and blatant racism on the troop’s faces will be shown for everyone
And what will anyone be able to do about it? That’s the problem with installing a fascist autocracy. Outrage does not deter fascists. The left needs to organize and be prepared to physically obstruct these actions, and that is not going to be without danger.
chanting antisemitic slogans, in service of an Arab and Persian Islamic holy war, against the Jews
Absolutely ridiculous. These people oppose Israel’s daily massacre of civilians. That is all.
Socialism isn’t even on offer these days. What Republicans consider socialist stretches all the way from communism to conservatism.
This interview with Sarah Smarsh is good:

She says that the Republicans were the party that validated working class voters’ pain, even if the rest of what they said was a pack of lies and they plan to help the rich and harm the poor. The Democrats didn’t even get this far: they repeatedly ignored working class suffering while insisting the economy was good and making promises to help the “middle class” (whoever that is these days). Given the choice between one party that says “we hear your pain” and another that says “you’re too ignorant to realize things are actually going well” it’s not surprising which party got the working class votes. It’s just a shame the Republicans don’t actually plan to help these people.
They’ve learned from their mistakes, and concluded that Clippy failed because there was no Clippy key.
No, I just somehow managed to post my reply under your comment when I meant to post it at the top level. I didn’t have any issue with your comment.
It makes sense, while the USA sets about destroying itself economically and socially.
