Saying that a person who did a bad thing is just a bad person is a thought terminating cliché. It's a way for us to pretend that bad acts are aberrations and not predictable, controllable outcomes. And frankly, it's also bioessentialist claptrap.

We must never plant a seed that any human life is worth less than any other. I will not accept that some people are acceptable losses. And the FlyDubai incident should increase your resolve to end every genocide, not decrease it. As hard as it is, never become desensitized to human suffering.

quoted post is in an important thread! everything in it is worth checking out. disclaimer: this person knows more about the topic than me. I'm among climate people and have seen many diverting toward fighting generative AI. I'll share a few of the factors I've seen from people doing that 🧵

It's easy - and correct! - to focus on just how ghoulish and profane this view of human creativity is. But even if you're the most cynical capitalist on earth, the evidence that people would enjoy entirely dehumanised content, at anything like a scale that would justify this hype, is extremely thin!

Alt text added for accessibility.
Image of a guide for avoiding sexual assault, aimed at the people who commit it. The background is purple, with numbered items for people to consider. The guide is satirical, and it turns common victim-blaming advice around onto the perpetrators.

The upper right says "sexual violence centre cork" and has their logo, a drawing of fancy door. The organization is out of Cork City and County, Ireland.

Title: "How to avoid sexual assault! A quick and easy guide*". There's an asterisk leading to a tiny footnote that says "*for perpetrators".

1: Don't put drugs in people's drinks. 

2: Use the buddy system! If you can't stop yourself from sexually assaulting someone, ask a trusted friend to accompany you at all times to stop you.

3: When you come across someone who is drunk or asleep, the best thing to do is not rape them. 

4: When you see a woman walking by herself, leave her alone.

5: If you are in a lift and someone steps in, remember not to sexually assault them. 

6: Carry a whistle. If you think you might rape someone, blow the whistle until someone comes to stop you.

Worth noting that the Title IX rules that were rescinded didn't include protections for trans student athletes, because Biden withdrew that part on his way out of office. That didn't stop McMahon from framing it that way though.
The Biden administration on Dec. 20 withdrew a proposed rule that would have extended Title IX protections to transgender student athletes, acknowledging that public sentiment and legal challenges made finalizing the rule too difficult.“It’s exactly how we enforce Title IX,” McMahon said in a video released over the weekend. “It was boys in boys sports and girls in girls sports, and now the Biden rules and regulations are being rescinded and it is a full return to the Trump administration’s Title IX ruling, as has been upheld by many courts.”

Do not carry a cold beverage in their presence. Politely decline any drinks or sweetmeats they may offer. Keep a plain iron nail in your left trouser pocket and a sachet or paper twist of coarse salt in your right shoe. Enter and leave your chair moving clockwise. Follow up with a thank-you note.

Social Circle, GA made news last year by stopping the planned ICE facility there. Now they've flatly rejected an application from a data center, and the state is trying to bully them for it by making them ineligible for state grants why exactly is the state of GA punishing data center resisters?

Dems so excited to compromise on trans rights, they didn't stop to consider the dynamic of Newsom's veto -- overruling a Dem-dominated legislature's attempt to protect trans people and those who serve them. Newsom is our great democratic hope bc he [checks notes] overruled Dems with a majority?

This is what "the party protecting me" is up to in "the most leftist trans paradise state"... ah... Heavily GOP gerrymandered states enact laws to criminalize trans health care providers, & w no one forcing him, Newsom thinks his state should send those trans health providers back to face charges

You do not need to explain, to Queer or Black or Disabled people in America, that you can't always have a perfect thing. That is not news to us. You are not providing new information. It is the height of arrogance to assume that's not already part of our understanding of the world.

"This is your only choice, shut the fuck up and take it" is certainly one way to campaign. As is "You're being stupid and childish and anything bad that happens you'll deserve." I don't think it's a good way to campaign, personally. I think you might be bad at your job, if that's how you do it.

A haggard human business traveler is guided through a spaceport by a cheerful fox-like humanoid as other animal-headed humanoids bustle about towards their varied destinations, including a golden-retriever in a classic trenchcoat, and some kind of bunny-man.

We’re in an unwinnable position because if conservatives roll back our rights, we’re told it’s our fault for not voting the other guys. But when it’s them doing it, we’re told to stop complaining because conservatives would be worse They just don’t want us on their conscience, that’s it really

A pattern here is anti trans changes made under a labour government are assumed to be "reasonable and moderate" by people who would oppose them if a right wing government was doing them. This is worse for trans people because cis people just don't believe us when we talk about what is happening.

And if the way you fight against concentration camps is to yell at trans people to stop caring about their own personal safety? Literally go do anything else. Go protest an ICE facility. Go organize mutual aid for impacted communities. Go make whistle kits and go distribute them.
