His legal understanding is “and they just let you do it, because you’re famous”… And for the most part he’s been correct.

It’s a scripted question designed to help the Nazi supporter based accept/like JD more.

They’re the best States. Nobody sues like these States. They’ve got the best lawyers, and it’s going to be a great case. A case like you would not believe. In fact I think the courts should just give up right now and let these States win the case. Everyone’s saying the judge should just decide the case, let them win, and walk away. That’s how good these States are.

OpenAI: “ChatGPT, estimate how many discussions on suicide you have in total per week.”

Why believe any company using this kind of “AI”?

They can bribe fascists for favourable outcomes.

No early voting is one step closer to no meaningful voting.

Latest reports say he’s looking into changing the constitution to enable a third term, or at least pretending he’ll changed it.

A game of, how many people can I get used to this idea before I do it.

TVocracy.

Makes it sound like a natural disaster, Trump’s name only appears three times in the body text of the article.

I’m picturing ICE agents wedging their phones in car doors, and wrenching them open.

Always have been, it’s just more official for a little bit. Maybe it was Haliburton again.

Sounds like too much work.

Even just this conversation is something of a proof. You kept hitting me with that “proof” that ICE’s funding is being raised as if would “convince” me of something. You know, being a good debunker trying to realign your “opponents” viewpoint. Correct their values… Where as I wasn’t putting half as much effort into my approach.

Just writing my pro-propaganda poerty. Because poetry, art, humor, propaganda is an art form. Science, logic, rationality, skepticism, debunking - they’re a science, it’s more effort. Take more work. The mindset is more draining. It’s subject to more burnout and isolation.

It’s a case study. Meanwhile the upvotes for this post don’t go away. Nor do the people who didn’t see your correction, who just saw the headline and continued on their way (which I suspect is most reddit/lemmy style users, they’re doom scrolling).

Now apply this to a whole system of posting accross platforms like the alt-right does …and a little debunking can’t really make a dent in the overall effect.

It’s a tool the left can’t afford to avoid. It’s best seen and done as an art, as comedy, with humour, gloss, and pizazz, like Trump does it. That’s what works. Everything’s a commercial. An elevator pitch.

I’ve been a debunker. It only works in a rational society, and only untill the forces of irrationality emmerge again out of emotional need. Propaganda deals with the emotions because people aren’t rational.

It’s a case study.

Maybe they can replace it with one to that teenaged slave girl he was fucking.

Wait, am I talking about Jefferson or Trump?

Where’s your cape? Or maybe you’d prefer a red robe like the Spanish Inquisition.

“Arguing with strangers on the Internet! That’ll improve the world!”

Superhero movies are for douche bags.

Are you asking whether I’ve personally audited all the weapons caches ICE might conceivably have access to?

I don’t even know if you have a face.

That’ll be the independent article I just posted. Because you can do both propaganda and the truth, there’s just rules for how to do so.

You find those rules by dabbling in both.

Trump is in power again BECAUSE of learning how to use propaganda.

You can keep that tool off the table, but that honourable move has a cost attached.

Oh yeah, wouldn’t want people mistakenly thinking ICE has a massive weapons budget now. You know what they say, when you’ve been defeated in a propaganda war, keep debunking bad things about the Gestapo.

Plus the article is mistakenly calling flashbangs warheads and correctly calling tear gas a chemical weapon. Good thing the left has “scientific leftists” like you to stand up for ICE’s image… Wouldn’t want propaganda against ICE on here. The “scientific left” must defend ICE’s image against such propaganda news.

… it’s not like ICE have a bigger weapons budget and would have a shitload of flash bangs and tear gas now. But yeah, thans for your correction on terms.

Now people won’t see it as much of a problem. Good job from “the left” as usual.
