I don’t know about Canada but the USA has been pro-child factory work lately. China’s wages have been rising faster than expected so they have gone all-in on automation. So when I see people claim their stuff is cheap because of “slavery” or human rights, it reads like projection.

You need to have better opinions. Only Nazis disagree with me! /s

For the Epstein list to be released and for all the wealthy pesos to be executed.

The point is that being a consumer of AI is not seizing the means of production. If you’re not spending millions of dollars training and operating the AI to actually own it, the power you have is on lease and the terms can change at anytime without regard to your needs or wishes.

A functioning judicial system is a prerequisite to any sort of accountability. And if we had a judicial system that served the people, then the Epstein client list would be known and prosecuted. The problem is we have a two-tiered justice system.

More like national socialist

AI isn’t your pal, it is not the cure for isolation under capitalism. It is also not free to run unless you are the product.

Frankly this take that AI will lead to a communist revolution if people embrace the technology reads more like Vulgar Marxism. You’re not seizing the means of production by being a consumer of a technology. And training a communist aligned LLM is a dubious value proposition.

it’s all computer!

Get a squatty potty and it will flow with more ease

And what are the Uighurs making that is so interesting?

Did you know that most of China’s debt is held domestically?

I mean so does the United States thanks to the 13th amendment but we don’t have anywhere near the same infrastructure to show for it

Overproduction of commodities is certainly a problem for capitalists. But the workers get to enjoy a lower cost of living. Like I would much prefer we built ghost cities (Chengdu was derided as a ghost city at one point) than have a decades long housing crisis with no signs of improving unless we deport millions of people.

Call it butt sex and then we can also claim this was the gay agenda we kept hearing about.

So I guess you’d say we should change nothing and ignore the wildly eroding support and the poll numbers showing the democratic party has just 28% favorability?

My brother in Christ, you’re not talking to a liberal here.

Listen to yourself. You’re saying the Democrats are our only hope yet they also don’t listen.

Democrats do listen, but only to those with power. Before anything can change for the better we need power for ourselves.

Obamacare was always a rhetorical device to prove how unserious the GOP is at governing.

Except MAGA is not neoliberalism unless we think tariffs are now “free trade”. I get the point that neither party will wield power against capitalism, but they still use their power differently.

I think in order to be a good psychiatrist you need to understand what your patient is “babbling” about. But you also need to be able to challenge their understanding and conclusions about the world so they engage with the problem in a healthy manner. Like if the guy is worried how AI is making the internet and world more dead then maybe don’t go to the AI to be understood.

Does he have a grave? Would be ashame to let a good outhouse to go to waste
