And the thing is, the democrats are STILL capitulating to fascism!
the best message they can come up with is “Vote for us and we PROMISE to be less bad! (just dont pay attention to our immigration policy or state surevillance or cops or our support for endless war and genocide.)”

classic democratic strategy:
“Let’s just memoryhole all the things we fucked up and berate people online for pointing them out! vote blue!”

If the Democrats had aggressively prosecuted Trump for his crimes (including trying to overthrow the Government) when they had a mandate to do so we wouldn't even be in this mess, so sit down and shut the fuck up

having thought about this for three days, my current status is:
what the FUCK are we doing trying to ban social media for kids and not banning AI use? we are literally telling them not to use the computer to talk to their real friends but instead to the imaginary technology monetisable 'friends'.
this makes me suspect that one of the routes that AI companies are aiming at is targeting young people. anything that existed when you were a kid feels normal and indispensable. especially if you always used AI to write all your essays for you. and to comfort you when your parents were arguing.
