lying to try to induce anxious, urgent guilt in a stranger for your own benefit political fundraisers probably the most famous example, but good ol fashioned scams do it all the time just the lowest kind of emotional manipulation

We created gyms because modern day work no
longer required physical activity. Without exercise,
our muscles atrophy.
I predict we'll need gyms for our brains too, once Al
starts doing our knowledge work.

You can buy a huge media conglomerate with money you don't have using leveraged debt you'll never pay off and then immediately start firing its workers, but people will still say that capitalism is compatible with democracy and is capable of "reform" or "regulation"

making mistakes and learning are verboten in modern american adulthood every incident of even the slightest friction immediately becomes about 'feedback' and 'after action reports' and blame and punishment and scorn not just professionally, either - all too often this happens elsewhere

this shit is so far past bad faith at this point that you simply have to conclude that anybody asking this asshole a question and letting him answer without fierce pushback likes trump and wants republicans to win

this is almost certainly the result of some fucking lawyer somewhere signing off on the idea that an interview, once it happens, is the corporations 'intellectual property' and that it can legally do what it wants with the material so fuck the subject of the interview

Big news in the Senate battle. After pouring $30 million in NC, John Thune's GOP SuperPAC stops spending there, effectively conceding Cooper is likely to win. And they're dumping their first 7-figures in Kansas. (Note: a Dem internal found Hamilton up today.) www.semafor.com/article/10/0...

I've heard people make claims that AI would lead to a new Renaissance, but I didn't imagine it'd happen like this:
Screenshot of a Tweet from Pope Leo XIV. It reads: 

"In this era of artificial intelligence, it is becoming urgen to distinguish human art from what machines produce. There is an ontological difference, even before an aesthetic one, between art and what a machine can generate through statistical calculation based on millions of images created by others. Algorithms lack the spark of humanity. For this reason, the Church wishes to renew an alliance with artists and cultural institutions to safeguard our humanity."

MGP is a weird Dem, her district is kinda strange etc but there's no world in which a Dem is competitive for the Kansas Senate seat *and* Dems are in danger of losing MGP's seat and OR-Gov. Just incompatible realities.

the idea that authoritarianism hasnt and probably wont consolidate but that *liberal democracy wont immediately consolidate either*, even after trump loses, is important to keep mind liberal democracy would itself need to RE-consolidate - it doesnt just magically come back because trump is gone
