The poisonous brain rot of the hateful bloodthirsty Zionist ideology & mindset held by real human beings, concentrated in Israel but actually including many worldwide, a lot of real fundamentalist Christians, is truly a sight to behold. They deny facts, rationality, logic, just love hate & killing.

It's OK to reserve your empathy for those targeted by the fascists rather than the fascists. It's hard to believe that this needs to be said but given what I see online from some of the "post" left contingent, I think it does need to be said.

The thing about the “no, you don’t understand AI could be used for good people” is that they're constantly yelling at the people pointing out the harm happening now, and I don’t see a ton being done to make this hypothetical good come to fruition.

As you organize around these issues, there is a role for the deeply informed question asker, for sure. The person who read the research and looked up the campaign donations. But there are many more accessible roles for the people can just show up and keep asking, “how” without losing their shit.

I should note: the debate over Trump's decision to end the "sensitive locations" policy is arguably one of the biggest religion stories of his 2nd term, involving dozens of faith orgs/denominations in 4 separate lawsuits. Over and over, it has directly pitted the admin against religious leaders.
