Political Tribalism in a nutshell. "We agree about this one thing, therefore anyone who disagrees with me about anything is your enemy." It is a poison to thought.

The Japanese Patent Office has rejected Nintendo and The Pokémon Company's "Monster Capture" patent, which could mean problems for their lawsuit against Palworld.

This is the sanest take I've read on here all year. Ninja's marketing is targeted at very specificly the segment of lower "middle" class edgelords. Literally the Walmart version of better products, but marked up to exploit mall ninjas.

I approach political parties like fighting fire with fire. Burn a little forest to contain a larger fire, but don't trust the small fire. They are engines of decay, whose primary value is as weapons against each other.

Why don't either of the Two Parties want to end the Two Party System that makes them rich and powerful? I don't know, it's a real mystery. Neither of us will sit in the shade of the trees we plant. The mountain to be moved is just that big.

If it was that easy to bring the system down, you would have done it already, and we wouldn't be having this conversation. A river doesn't move a mountain in a day.

No, smash the political machine. Ballot reform. Auto Runoff is better than FPTP ballots. End the Electoral College. End the Two party system. But we aren't going to do that without any fingers. In this metaphor, the lost fingers are your communists dying in an El Salvadorian for-profit prison.

Felblood @felbloodstreaming.bsky.social · 27/05/2025

Running on a party ticket is useful, because the political identity spectrum is a useful tool for politicians to control voters. It is not in the interest of voters to allow themselves to be manipulated with such cheap demagoguery. Play the game. Don't let the game play you.

Felblood @felbloodstreaming.bsky.social · 27/05/2025

Look at it this way. The Two Party system has you in a Jigsaw trap, that offers you a choice. If you push a button, it will cut off your finger, but if you do not push, it cuts off three fingers. "Because I still lose a finger. I will not push." The situation sucks, but save a couple fingers.

Every political party in the history of Earth has been a loose confederation of temporary allies, held together by a common need, until such time as it became more useful to betray each other. Don't turn your back, just spend your energy where is will give them a chance to do things you needed done.

The beauty of life is that no two people see the same sight in exactly the same way.

To transmit perfect information between two neural networks, such as brains, those neural networks would have to be perfect copies of each other. Every translation or adaptation involves some degree of data loss. Even mild training of an LLM can cause LoRA to become incompatible.

Felblood @felbloodstreaming.bsky.social · 27/05/2025

So you're specifically addressing people in the center of the American Left movement, who try to keep the party united against the American Right, by downplaying corrupt leftists and amplifying opponents' scandals. Distinct from capital C *C*centrists, who reject party loyalty.

If I have to choose, I'm far more interested in civility than argument.

Felblood @felbloodstreaming.bsky.social · 27/05/2025

Since no two organic neural networks are identical, the in-network "meaning" of the interpreted symbol will necessarily be distinct from that of the sender, so additional loss occurs during decoding and processing. Just try to keep it under 0.08%

110

Felblood @felbloodstreaming.bsky.social · 27/05/2025

Well, symbol mediated communication is inherently lossy. My eventual thesis will prove that every word forms a quantum uncertainty wave of potential meanings upon leaving the sender, which collapses when interpreted by the receiver. We can only strive to focus the beam in the tightest area we can.

Felblood @felbloodstreaming.bsky.social · 27/05/2025

Also, please please tell me you want to argue about the nuances of symbol mediated communication. This is my field of study and new perspectives are a treat.

Felblood @felbloodstreaming.bsky.social · 27/05/2025

Ok. Define your understanding of Centrism in a way that makes sense to a person who rejects platform planks having inbuilt reactionary/progressive natures. For me: Our defining ideal is to reject the value of the political spectrum as a social construct. Lacking this creed, we are not Centrists.

Felblood @felbloodstreaming.bsky.social · 27/05/2025

You are imagining me as someone very different than who I am. You will not defeat your real enemies by turning every potential ally into their shadow clone.

Felblood @felbloodstreaming.bsky.social · 27/05/2025

I'm more of a Democratic Socialist goals by Conservative means Centrist, but I don't think your worldview allows for a political compass that complex. I'm not expecting you to declare peace with the other "left" factions unilaterally, just be open to the opportunity should it arise.

Felblood @felbloodstreaming.bsky.social · 27/05/2025

Centrism does not work that way.

If I had my preferences it'd be universal medicaid, religious freedom, racial harmony, and an STV ballot that would kill the Two-Party system in the US. As is, I'll settle for fewer death camps and not ending medicaid for people already on it. Life sucks.

Felblood @felbloodstreaming.bsky.social · 27/05/2025

The function of the Centrist, in a two party system, is to minimize harm. Red v Blue and Left v Right are distractions. We can't waste lives on old feuds. It's not about what we would want in an ideal situation, but what we can reasonably achieve in this real world.

100

Felblood @felbloodstreaming.bsky.social · 27/05/2025

This format is ill suited to this, but party platforms are a marketing tactic, with little more ideological coherence than the items in a combo meal. Both parties are a loose confederation of sub-factions forced into cooperation by the FPTP ballot, and nothing more. Left and Right are brand names.

There are ten thousand good arguments against that post, and this isn't any of them. If you're going to be on this team, pull your weight instead of dragging it down.

Your understanding of what makes a stance Left or Right is so fundamentally different from mine that we might as well be speaking different languages.

Felblood @felbloodstreaming.bsky.social · 27/05/2025

Oh yeah. Weird you'd get in fights when you come out swinging like that. Several implications to unpack here: *very binary perspective on politics *from your viewpoint everyone looks like an enemy. *people who don't share your exact beliefs aren't welcome in your echo chamber.

100

Felblood @felbloodstreaming.bsky.social · 27/05/2025

Yeah, because two wrongs make a right. We should definitely take cold comfort in old grudges, instead of finding common ground in defending each other from a common existential threat. That's the heroic thing to do. Screw justice. We have hate.

As a real Moderate, I wish there was a better way to gatekeep Centrism. There are far to many extremists who will snatch up the banner of Radical Moderate, the moment it suits their argument, only to abandon it in the dirt once it's time to fly their true colors.

I tried switching to tea, because groceries are so high, but it seems that my soda need isn't just about caffeine. I need a fizzy drink to soothe my throat from allergies. I'll have to cut something else. I don't need this "vitamins and minerals" stuff, right?

My therapist and I have been trying to fill out a referral, to a psychologist for a potential ADHD diagnosis, for weeks, but we keep getting distracted. I'm stating to think they're the one that should be on Adderall. Or maybe both of us. I wish this was a joke.
