Damn bro, I didn’t know Mao was responsible for the worldwide improvements in medical science.

Hmm…

I literally open the post with “it’s not racist.” To ignore that and read the rest of the post as “I don’t care if it is racist” is either intentionally dishonest, or incredibly stupid. Regardless of whether or not you agree with my take, those are the only two options for misrepresenting my opinion as “I don’t care if it is racist,” so take your pick on which of the two you think you’re being right now.

Extremely different in historical context, considering one is a stereotype of a victim of genocide (obviously, the Jewish people, not Nathanyhu, fuck that guy slightly harder than Xi), and the other is specific to the leader of a nation perpetuating it.

It’s not.

Tankies like to argue that comparing Xi Xiping to Winnie the Pooh is racist because Winnie the Pooh is that off orange-yellow colour, and it’s easy to pretend racism starts and ends at vague commentary about skin colour and not, you know, power structures and oppression.

But it’s an argument of convinience, brought to you by the same people who scream “ReAd ThEoRy!!” when obscure, specific and often misunderstood academic understandings of complex political systems are more useful to their mental gymnastics.

What actually matters is that it upsets a dictator of one of the most powerful countries of the world. And fuck that guy in particular.

I’ve been enjoying “using AI is like using a hammer to put screws it a board. It looks fine and holds together for a bit, but the littlest bit of pressure or shaking and it starts to fall apart.”

That’s the funny thing about echoes: they tend to distort whatever is being said. Perfect for not letting pesky little things like reality get between you and what you want to hear.

Homie, you can’t even convince me to call it “AI.” It’s an LLM, an algorithm that pumps out letters in the order that we’ve taught it to calculate to be most desirable.

Inevitable “well, ackshually”: yes, I know there are a lot of legitimate non-LLM models out there, but that’s not what the colloquial conversations are talking about, and importantly not what Trump is talking about, as he has no idea what he is talking about.

I dislike the term Communism, as it’s associations with Stalinist thought muddies the waters between it and Fascism. I identify as socialist, myself.

What I take issue with is the fact that you support fascism and call it by a different name. I quite enjoyed “misinformation and hate” as a more direct statement. As an aside, go fuck yourself, fascist.

Are these Liberals in the room with us right now?

You can make any argument you want when you imagine words to mean whatever you need them to mean.

Let’s be straight here: the likliest scenario is that Lemmy was explicitly created for the purpose of giving tankies a platform to spread misinformation and hate. It is the Nazi bar.

Literally no one above you conflated anarchists and marxists with tankies.

Imagine playing victim about something no one said. The very definition of “strawman.”
