  • The race has become deeply personal, with Mamdani saying he wants to turn the page on Cuomo’s scandal-marred politics of the past and Cuomo saying he wants to stop the progressive wing from destroying the Democratic Party.

    There are other mayoral races on the ballot Tuesday, too, including in Minneapolis — where Mayor Jacob Frey is facing challenges from several other Democrats, including a self-described democratic socialist in state legislator Omar Fateh — as well as Detroit, Boston, New Orleans, Miami and Charlotte, North Carolina.

    Reminder the current DNC chair not only endorsed Mamdani right after the primary, he’s been hyping up Omar Fateh for over a year.

    The billionaires aren’t just freaking out over a couple mayors, they know the DNC won’t hold them back in larger races, and winning now shows that people want that policy


  • Ultimately the problem with LLM accusations is that short of a confession or doing some hardcore surveillance of the other person you can’t prove it

    Human variation.

    Ironically you would have to take the others person word on it, luckily you just said you were comfortable doing so.

    Some people are statistically insignificant, and to them lots of stuff is incredibly obvious and they’re constantly frustrated others can’t see it. They might even sink sizeable free time into explaining random shit, just to practice not losing their temper when people can’t see the obvious.

    So you might not be able to tell that was AI from a glance, but humans are pattern recognition machines and we’re not all equally good at it.

    So believe a “llm accusation” or not, but some people absolutely can pick out a chatbot response, especially when taking the two seconds to glance at typical comments from a user profile.

    Jump from 1-2 sentence comments to a stereotypical AI response…

    Well, again, not everyone is as good at picking out patterns quickly.

    To some what took me literally under 10 seconds and two clicks counts as “hardcore surveillance” because it would take them a long time to figure it out.

    Don’t assume everyone else is exactly like you.


  • Her main campaign strategy was to paint him as a misogynist,

    No, that’s what McCollum did…

    Because as I said:

    but he tried (and succeeded) into making her campaign a kamikaze attack on Bernie so Biden could take it.

    They knew it wouldn’t work, but they knew it would also sink the only two progressives.

    She was 72 years old at the time, she wasn’t the same person she was the majority of her career, which is why people want her to retire.

    Like, I’m not defending her, I’m pointing out how dangerous it is letting people stay in office this long. Because even if they start out good, by the time they have the seniority they’re not what they used to be.




  • Stop burning the planet down to generate social media comments

    I mean, I thought it would be obvious my issue was with using AI to do so…

    Even if it had been a serious question.

    But, to be fair I was thinking of what a normal.person would be able to parse, and not people who’s critical thinking had already atrophied from offloading to AI.

    They probably don’t have any idea what I meant and would need it explicitly spelled out.


  • What did I miss?

    In 2020 Warren got grifted into hiring Mike McCollum from Hillary’s 2016 team.

    Warren thought he’d actually help, but he tried (and succeeded) into making her campaign a kamikaze attack on Bernie so Biden could take it.

    So Warren was great, and she’s done a lot of good…

    But she’s old enough she’s getting taken advantage of like this and needs to step down.

    There’s a reason the oligarchs want confused 80 year olds in office. They’re easily tricked even if they have good intentions.











  • If I’ve replied to you once why start with this:

    you wanna stop putting words in my mouth and have an honest, productive discussion, I’m all for it. Otherwise, don’t bother replying.

    This is a two day thread I’ve blocked multiple low activity accounts in, and a new one only shows up after I block the last one…

    Like, it should be obvious what’s going on here, but I’m betting a new account will reply in a couple hours after I don’t reply to your next one.



  • So you think the government should have no laws about reporduction?

    If a father wants to reproduce with his own daughters, assuming he waits till they’re 18, you’re cool with that?

    Any law against inbreeding is eugenics after all, and your pretty clear that because someone corrupted it, the baby has to go out with the bathwater.

    Like, you realize on a long enough timescale, all you’re arguing for is the repeated and continual renaming of every system after someone abuses, which only leads to a general populace ignorant of history and that any system can be abused.

    You think this is just me being pedantic, but word choice literally shapes how we think.

    It matters more than you think it does.

    And what you’re arguing for is literally why so many ericans are against socialism.

    That’s the ironic part, you’re method is easily and recently disproven. But likely due to that very train.of logic you don’t understand it.

    It’s like a blind man arguing everyone should be blind be cause he never sees anything scary, ignorant that if everyone was blind we’d all be fucked
