I personally don't "hate" it. I am, however, realistic about its capabilities. A lot of people think that LLMs can be used as a substitute for thinking.

That, any way you look at it, is a problem with severe implications.

I hope you get to call "tops" otherwise you're dead as fuck.

Right or wrong is rarely as binary as you seem to be imagining. It's a spectrum. Alignment with reality is contingent upon a habit of seeking better information. If better information comes along, any intellectually healthy person should be willing to accept it and integrate it into their understanding of the world.

Also - cultivate a habit of knowing that it's ok to be wrong. Your beliefs don't define you as much as HOW you choose to shape your beliefs.

We have pattern-seeking brains that instinctually crave a sense of certainty that rarely exists in reality. We always have to be aware of that. We also live in a society that unfortunately reinforces this tendency.

Don't strive to be "right." Strive to be well-informed.

What a lovely arrangement of shells.

Asymmetric warfare never intends to aim for a conventional peer to peer engagement with a far superior force. We're not talking about pitched open battles here. We're not talking about occupying territory or capturing objectives.

"What happens" is probably a lot of propaganda from the fascist media outlets. They'll view it as a justification for increased political violence on their part. Probably as a pretext for martial law and the suspension or posse comitatus. Full blown military occupation.

If that happens, we'll effectively be in a state of open civil war anyway. So it won't really matter.

The really depressing thing about this, and many other "unexplained" aerial phenomena, is that it demonstrates how many people just never fucking look up at the sky.

"Niceness" is largely performative. It's based on words and little else. Being "nice" is based on how someone views themself.

Kindness, on the other hand, is rooted in an intrinsic belief that is shown through action. It extends beyond the individual and considers how their actions relate to society as a whole.

You can paint a layer of "nice" over an absolute garbage core personality. It doesn't really mean anything. These days, "nice" can be used to describe a baseline level of standard civility that allows you to function in society. It says nothing about what kind of person you are.

Mass suicide pact when?

No one said that we were relying on the government to carry out justice.

The only thing saving this country from full on state-sponsored ethnic cleansing is the fact that they keep appointing the stupidest motherfuckers imaginable to key positions or power.
