  • That’s the thing about spending 70 years lying and having someone else fire anyone that disagrees…

    You start believing it all.

    Same shit happened to Elon and loads of other rich people, they stop getting real feedback and understanding that they’re being lied to.

    The honestly believe their own bullshit, and they just don’t know how to react to the truth.

    We saw it with the interview about the ms13 tattoo, trump doesn’t even know how to argue anymore, he’s used to everyone just agreeing with him, so when they don’t his only argument is “why aren’t you saying what I want you to say, do you not understand what I want you to say?”

    Because that’s the only time they hear what they dont want to; when the person talking to them is confused about what they want to hear


  • They haven’t waited for a green light since Obama left office.

    He actually put his foot down. And Biden as VP wouldn’t shut up about how the only way to deal with Israel was to give them everything they want and beg for what we want.

    Biden recounted in private that when he was vice president in 2014 and Israel mounted a military assault on Gaza, Obama and his staff rejected his belief, held for decades, that the best way to approach the Israelis is to hug them close but not criticize them, the people familiar with his comments said.

    Instead, they said Biden has noted, Obama publicly admonished Israel’s actions and voiced concern for Palestinian civilian deaths early into the 2014 conflict. As a result, Biden has argued, Obama squandered any ability to influence the Israeli government as it invaded Gaza, said the people familiar with his comments.

    Trump’s loyalty costs some bribes and nice words, but Bibi could call Biden a bitch to his face and Biden would have thanked him for his time.

    But it’s been almost a decade since Israel had to ask America before doing something



  • If you’re 99.99% behind far right authoritarian governments, they consider you just as against them as if you were trying to overthrow them…

    Back in the day in what is modern day China, a jailor was transporting prisoners. He ran into issues, and was going to be late. The punishment for showing up late was public execution , so he freed his prisoners, who became his first followers and eventually he overthrew the whole fucking empire.

    Because when any tiny sleight is treated with the same punishment as revolution, revolution starts sounding like a pretty good idea





  • It was 100% Elmo

    Whoever did it had an investor’s level knowledge of what AI is and what it can do. He doesn’t know that at that level it will just always do what it says. He thinks there’s something even deeper than what he was messing with, some mystical “algorithm” that uses what he edited as a guide.

    There’s not, that was the base code of what is essentially a chatbot.





  • Treat him like a grown up.

    Be honest that some people need peace and quiet and while you enjoy spending time with him you can’t handle it all the time.

    He’s old enough to understand it, and you’ll do a better job explaining it than some 10 year old he knows from school.

    Kids are sponges and learn social cues like that really quickly, but someone has to tell them what’s going on. There is absolutely nothing wrong with telling a kid that age to chill out


  • or you could read the actual article to see what he really said:

    David has a very casual relationship with the truth,” he told host Symone Sanders Townsend. “And he has not been truthful on so many points that have been raised on this show.”

    The Pennsylvania state legislator added that he’s “frustrated” with the decision to hold the election again given that he received considerably more votes than necessary to clinch one of the vice chair positions, but he respects it.

    “But David’s first statement out of the gate was, here’s the Democratic Party doing some maniacal thing to push me out because of what he’s doing with his PAC,” Kenyatta said. “David knows that that is not true.”

    “And so for all of the people who have, like I had, really high hopes for what David could bring for this party and who are now looking at the message that he’s been pushing out and the emails that they have been getting from him about how he wants to reform the party, you have to be honest with people,” he added.

    The comments came after the Credentials Committee voted on Monday to support nullifying the results of the February election that made Hogg and Kenyatta vice chairs. The decision came as a result of a complaint that a losing candidate for a vice chair position had filed months earlier challenging the procedure in which the election was held.







  • The DNC is a dictatorship where the Chair can do whatever they want.

    There’s no “pretty much” in there, they’re beholden to no one with zero accountability for anything.

    The DNC chair who tried to shove Biden/Kamala down our throats is the same one that fucked up this vice chair election.

    But they lost, and we got a great DNC chair who will do the right thing and stay impartial.

    Continuing to blame him for things he literally had nothing to do with makes no logical sense.

    I’ve spent over 20 years hating the DNC and it feels like buzzaro world lately.

    But ya’ll legitimately didn’t just miss the battle, the war happened and you didn’t even notice.

    Bernie’s whole thing was it wasn’t about a person it was about a movement, and to take over the party we had to take over voting seats of the DNC…

    And, well, we did that.

    Mission Accomplished. We have a DNC chair who showed with their state party management they’ll run fair elections, and we can see in Minnesota that works out very well.

    We spent decades working towards a chair like Ken Martin, don’t fall for propaganda from the neoliberals that now is the time to stop supporting the DNC.
