If the AI idealists can’t stand up to basic forces of capitalism, how do they expect to control an actually dangerous AGI?

My guess is they don’t expect to. I guess that that is one of the reasons they seem to not care about out of control climate change; burn it all down before it all literally burns down.

Why is it so hard for Trump supporters to understand that there is no such thing as “blue maga.”

Democrats don’t fly Democratic candidates flags, wear their merchandise, wear diapers and bandages “in solidarity,” storm the Capitol because their candidate said to, etc. etc.

Democrats aren’t followers like cult members. They actually think for themselves.

Who is this guy and how serious should we take this information?

Well, he did predict Clinton would win in 2016 so there’s that.

And if you do, use protection.

Get sunscreen that you don’t mind applying in the morning.

Does it last all day or were you just suggesting morning because some people forget it until later?

That wasn’t my argument, and is still a viable option. Libraries still exist.

That’s a lie. You used that as an argument twice (that I saw, maybe more).

You: No one is forced to use a laptop. Libraries exist with free internet access and computer.

Also you: Good thing poor people have access to public libraries. I know from experience

My point and argument was: It is the schools decision on what happens with school hardware.

No, I didn’t argue with you about that. That was an argument you were having with multiple other people. I just called you out on the fact that what you were claiming about libraries is not always true for everyone. I cited my source and proved you wrong. Yet you still seem to want to argue so you decided to change the subject of our debate.

Have any thing to say to my point without being combative?

I already said what I wanted to say. Unlike you I don’t feel the need to argue about everything.

You have been antagonistic toward everyone in this post that you’ve interacted with. What makes you think anyone would have any respect for you enough to be polite? If you are combative then people will most likely be combative in their replies.

Or do I add you to the pile of people not worth interacting with in the future?

I find it somewhat sad that you keep saying that to people you get tired of debating. You say it a lot. Please feel free to add me to that list. I’ll survive.

One is (usually) more serious/professional and the other more casual/fun.

I propose we do debates, and also do roasts like on Comedy Central. The candidates get to point out eachother’s flaws. That would be fun.

Then you’re another useful idiot.

How so?

You can’t have a civil discussion with propagandists. They can lie far faster than you can call them out on it. All you can do is troll them.

That’s all? Seems like someone might be using psychological projection when they call others a “useful idiot.”

The point is that your argument falls apart considering it kept being propped up by your assertion that kids can just use the library computers if they’re too poor to have a computer at home.

But that doesn’t matter; you’re not actually here to debate in good faith.

• Debate Pervert:

“When our position on an issue is no longer based on curiosity and the desire for the truth, but a desire to win a debate. When someone reaches this stage of discourse, there’s no need to try and persuade them.”

Judging by vote totals, we’re already in that sea of .ml alts brigading on behalf of hexbear that I mentioned.

I always laugh when someone assumes the reason why they’re being downvoted because their assumption is almost always wrong.

I downvoted you because of how childish you’re behaving. If you don’t debate in a civil manner nobody will take your argument seriously. Regardless of whether I agree with your argument or not, trolling always deserves a downvote.

You need to touch my balloon knot, mate

No wonder nobody is taking you seriously.

I ADMITTED I COULD HAVE MISUNDERSTOOD. What more do you want from me?

Calm down. You’re getting way too worked up over nonsense.

I would ask that you clarify what you mean. I could be completely wrong and misunderstood the context of your comment, but, and excuse my assumption, but to me, it seems you’re being rude, a troll, an alt account from a person I pissed off, or just a random dude that I’ve never interacted with that is taking exception in a sarcastic way

Like I said, I could be misinterpreting your statement and mean no offense

Quoted, for posterity.

How do you know a tankie from a government paid shill like UniversalMonk?

I’m not familiar with UniversalMonk. Why do you think they’re a government paid shill?

You are booming too hard here lol

Jfc

I’ve never heard that phrase. What does it mean?
