It’s all so rigged. We have such little power against big money. The Dems work for the billionaires too. As soon as someone steps in who threatens the wealthy and would actually tax them, this shit happens. It was obvious with Bernie in 2016. It’s obvious now.

It’s a big club and we ain’t in it.

Dems are not our friends although they are objectively better than Republicans obviously.

I was being facetious. Pseudo in my mind at the time was not serious. Again, right wingers think communism/socialism is when you “get free stuff”.

Who needs a billion though? Cut that down to like 100 mil, or even 50.

It should be much higher, and not just billionaires. Add in 100 millionaires to the mix, and a lot of 10 millionaires too.

Word play on the “they get free stuff in communism” schtick.

If you understand extreme wealth, you’d understand that we already have pseudo-communism for the rich.

Once you’re in the 10s/100s of millions and higher, you basically get even more free money for doing absolutely nothing. Just hire a financial advisor, and they will tell you how to diversify so that your risk almost drops to zero. You get free money for nothing.

They. Get. Free. Money. For nothing. It’s complicated, but also it really is that simple.

The only very small risk is extreme market or society collapse, like the great depression. But they’ve been good about keeping the system stable for their benefit.

Bison/buffalo burgers are delicious.

will also make nonsense mistakes that don’t even make sense

It would blow things up even faster

We are already on the way to the dollar collapsing

Humans are already doing and causing all this.

they have no capacity to reason nor analyze

Nobody thinks LLMs are intelligent or conscious or able to reason, other than stupid people.

It’s a software tool. The anti-ai cult is way overthinking it. It’s insanely valuable and impressive to me as an engineer at small tasks. Fails at large tasks, but generally gets close at 80-90% which is undeniably impressive for what it is, an unintelligent machine learning LLM software tool. It’ll either improve, or something else better will come along to replace it.

Would you trust an LLM to manage your own monthly budget numbers and categorize things properly?

Sure, as a software tool to assist in the same way I might use any other software tool to make life easier. You should probably check and verify the results to verify correctness.

At the end of the day, I don’t really care. I sympathize much more with the accelerationist attitude, then protection of the status quo. If your argument is using LLMs will bring about a downfall of the system in any way, well then I can only get so erect. Hook it to my veins please.

Even by your argument, we have imbeciles like trump elected as the president of the United States, the worlds most powerful economic and military empire. Religious wars are still a thing in 2025. Putins oligarchy dictatorship is killing Ukrainian civilians, kidnapping children, and torturing POWs. This place is a fucking clown show. Let it burn.

I’m not arguing AI is intelligent or a save all for anything. I only comment on the anti-ai cult stuff as it seems more like crowd mentality nonsense. Let them use LLMs to analyze financial markets or whatever. It ain’t like skynet where they just turn it on and walk away, lol. I truly and honestly don’t think it could get any worse than the system we currently have though.

Meh.

Honestly, why would that be worse than greedy, sociopathic billionaire investors and Milton friedman style free market capitalists making all the decisions?

Shit, I’ll take a shitty LLM or even a developmentally challenged labradoodle making financial decisions over the current exploitative capitalist slop we have today.

Judge:

… Something something… suffering from affluenza… Not guilty!

• Typical maga right winger.

Let’s fucking GOOOOO!!

This is so refreshing. A publicly self described democratic socialist. Sends a great message to the conservative democrat establishment.

A Muslim socialist. Maga is gonna seeth and I’m here for it.

More socialists please. Keep em coming.

Mike Johnson opposes bipartisan war powers resolution to authorize Trump’s Iran strikes

Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) on Monday came out against a bipartisan war powers resolution to prevent U.S. intervention in Iran

Is it just me, or is the title worded contradictory to the content?

The people planning this and walking around doing the pricking…

There’s a classic death metal song by Cannibal Corpse called “Hammer Smashed Face”.

I wish we had a real president and govt to take this shit seriously.

We need to do more above ground nuke tests. I can think of a place right now.

Yep. Keep them as slaves. Or very close to it. It’s so obvious. Due to everything that’s happening the immigrants will be in fear and desperation. They’ll work for below minimum wage in horrid conditions and be too afraid to do anything about it.

Cool as fuck.

Honestly, it feels like it’s all by design.

The establishment dems are saying “you’ll vote for our chosen moderately conservative dem of our choice, or you’ll get trump or whoever the Republicans put up”.

They do this on purpose, because they have money and don’t suffer the consequences that the poors do. They don’t care. Some even probably quietly made money on trumps tarriff stock market fiasco.

They pushed out bernie. They don’t like this new Mamdani guy as he’s a bernie-like democratic socialist.
