He/Him I write about social epistemology and political philosophy. Like to read anarchist thought. I play a lot of D&D that I'll post about sometimes. All views are my own.

Welcome to being a rural conservative, "farmer", white working class, etc. Most coddled political demographic in the world.

iirc "bullshit" requires an intentionality to disregard concern for truth and I don't think we should be ascribing intentionally to LLMs. We can just say they're plagiarism machines that hallucinate a bunch of stuff and make people who dumb.

Conservatives are seen as "real Americans" in the media. They'll run 100 stories about 'farmers' before talking about urban dwellers (who make up the majority of the country btw)

So if it's a necessity like, let's say, water, for example, it should be a public utility, right?

It's good that Beaver County is getting some cash out of this. But Shell's revenue in 2025 was $266 billion. Probably relevant somehow.

Haven't heard anything about Jordan Peterson in a while. Did he finally become a lobster or whatever?

It is on brand tho when you consider how the poll chasers use public opinion triangulation to justify the positions they already hold. They never seem to support something like M4A that has broad popular support.

I mean doesn't he just ghostwrite a book on how he was betrayed by the leftist extremists in his party and then be the token lib/centrist on Fox & Friends?

It is incumbent on the rest of us to not let the GOP get away with their whole patriotism law and order grift anymore. Like they've always been phonies about it but it needs to be clear that they're not serious and should be treated as such

Guessing you're talking about the second sentence here since the rest refer to the Cuban people. I don't know if I'd call that fluffing. Like let's be serious.
Today is the centenary of Fidel Castro, and the Democratic Socialists of America recognize the historic significance of both this day and the man. Fidel was an organizer, a fighter, and endures as a stalwart symbol of anti-imperialist struggle and self-determination for the Global South. DSA has a long history of solidarity with the Cuban people, their revolution, and their self-determination. We choose this historic day to recommit ourselves to acting in solidarity with the Cuban people and to starkly opposing Marco Rubio’s genocidal war against the Cuban people and US imperialism writ large.

Honestly a great recurring bit that pretty much every action of this administration is something that, had a Democrat done it, would have the current Congress frothing at the mouth for impeachment

It's really too bad that these tech bros purposefully misinterpret LotR. You can tell them genAI is the One Ring and they'll say "yes, indeed. And here's how I will use it totally not to do any evil"
