Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 6hThe reason I'm somewhat optimistic about how this will work out is that AI is world-historically unprofitable and the entire industry is on the verge of collapse if they can't "regulate" (ie form a cartel that would facilitate a slowdown in capital expenditures) 000
Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 6hThat plus the fact that nearly the entire capitalist class (not just in the AI industry) has bought into the idea that "artificial general intelligence" will make most human workers obsolete (and hence make them even richer) 100
Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 6hI think that's wishful thinking when you consider that the AI industry is mostly made up of TESCREALists who believe in a form of techno-fascist eugenics and don't value human life in general because creating "artificial life" is more important to themfirstmonday.org The TESCREAL bundle: Eugenics and the promise of utopia through artificial general intelligence | First Monday 100
Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 6hI'm not worried about "holy grails", I'm worried about policymakers deciding that we don't need to properly educate our entire populace because AI can do our thinking for us. Sam Altman said knowledge and intelligence shouldn't be something you possess but rather a commodity you buy from a utility. 141
Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 8hIt's not just math. Sam Altman said that he envisions a future where knowledge and intelligence aren't something you possess but rather commodities you buy from a utility. They want to make all of us obsolete and completely gut education to create a population dependent upon and manipulated by AI. 000
Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 9hYou mean the labs that are burning through billions in capital expenditures just to create a product that loses money on every prompt? 000
Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 11hThe AI industry needs to collapse before the Democrats can take power because they'd 100% allow OpenAI and Anthropic to form a cartel through regulation and possibly become profitable whereas Trump is so dazzled by the line going up that he won't let them decelerate 000
Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Do you morons really believe everyone in red states are rural Trump voters 000

Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Yeah ever heard of voter suppression? Nearly a quarter of all voters were purged from the voter rolls in my state just this year 000
Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 06/10/2026The Democrats could have passed the John Lewis voting rights act so we could vote in non-rigged elections but they didn't because like you they don't give a fuck about people suffering under GOP fascism 100
Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 06/10/2026I'm not talking about myself, I'm talking about enslaved prisoners, entire communities with cancer because of pollution, and cities sinking into the ocean. That's what you don't care about 100
Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 06/10/2026They also love Israel because they want somewhere to deport all the Jews to. This arrangement was seen as a win-win by both Nazis and Zionists, hence the Haavara agreement 031
Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 06/10/2026You care, I can tell because you're angry about being called out for your callous indifference to the suffering of others 100
Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 06/10/2026I don't want to be in a coalition with Republicans or Democrats who oppose LGBT rights, support ICE, and would be happy to see leftists in concentration camps 000
Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Okay fascist, keep gloating over potential harm to innocent people and see how well that works in getting people to support Democrats 100

Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 06/10/2026I live in a red state and it's by far one of the most oppressive places to live in the US. The state prison is a former plantation and the governor is actively trying to destroy the largest city in the state. We have horrible rulers but not everyone is a "monster", you fascist moron. 100
Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 06/10/2026The second amendment isn't real in that there is no actual freedom to own firearms. Its purpose is to empower reactionary/colonial mob violence against minorities and enemies of the state. Think Israeli settlers, not freedom fighters. You sound like a fed trying to entrap well-meaning people. 010
Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Me when a liberal says that roads, public schools, firefighters, and the military are "socialism" 000
Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 06/10/2026I would have had no problem voting against Hitler because I would have just voted for the communists 000
Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 06/10/2026I recently watched the B-movie "Deadly Instincts" (aka "Breeders" in the UK) and I know it's not the only movie with this issue but I couldn't stop thinking "where the fuck is the Title IX office?" whenever the apparently only professor on campus was sleeping with a student 010
Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 06/10/2026One was from Cuba and another was from Nicaragua so there's a very strong possibility these were Trump voters they caught 000
Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 06/10/2026Something I believe to be true but have no evidence for is that RFK Jr is a cannibal 000
Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 05/10/2026Latinos aren't a monolith. Cubans tend to be more conservative because they often benefit from being white passing and are even more indoctrinated with anti-communism than white conservatives. You can't just paint an entire continent and a half with these broad strokes. 100
Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 05/10/2026You seemed to suggest that immigrants are somehow less capable of understanding the consequences of their actions because you're a fascist piece of shit 100
Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 05/10/2026I assume you would be equally opposed to ending Apartheid South Africa or Nazi Germany 030
Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 04/10/2026The most egregious example of this was when the US overthrew the democratic government of the Soviet Union and installed the capitalist dictatorship in Russia that gave us Vladimir Putin. The next most egregious example was overthrowing the German Democratic Republic which led to the rise of AfD 111

Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 03/10/2026I'm so glad that @rifftrax.com seems to have updated the Best Friends stream playlist to include some movies I haven't seen in a while because I was getting sick of the "Christmas in July-September" rotation 000
Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 03/10/2026White people love going to ski resorts because it's dense walkable urbanism without any minorities 000
Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 02/10/2026Even if the lion ate 100 babies per day it would take 27397 years to eat them all so eventually enough babies will become adults that they could defeat the lion 1571
Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 01/10/2026My face when I learn that all of my biological relatives just died in a fire 000
Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 01/10/2026I've been saying for years that universities and colleges should ban all official fraternities, sororities, secret societies, houses, etc and I'm not the only one and it is frustrating that it's discussed every time something like this happens but nothing is done about it 010
Chris @cperez.bsky.social · 01/10/2026I knew someone in college 14-ish years ago who was assaulted by a house (coed frat) president. Other members of house leadership were allowed to testify against her credibility in the investigation. She was forced to leave the school and he went on to graduate and be a contestant on Jeopardy. 020
