This is largely because normal people got involved in left-wing organizing and marginalized the cranks.

Quando a gente tava pra atingir as 500 mil mortes um amigo meu disse que isso não iria derrubar o bolsonarismo porque 500 mil em uns 250 milhões de brasileiros não era gente suficiente pra todo mundo ter um parente próximo morto e o bolsonarista não tem empatia com desconhecidos Eu não acreditei

one of the most important things you should learn from arguing online and other places is that the way to be open-minded is not to be more accepting of the outgroup -- rather you should be more willing to consider that the ingroup are clowns

If nothing else AI is making clear that there are people all around us for whom writing, art, and music are not communion with another mind, but just - wallpaper. Just pleasant things to look at. They think AI is conscious because they have no actual grasp of what it is to encounter another mind.

The federal government has ABANDONED those of us dealing with Roko's Basilisks in our storm drains!!
Are mail carriers trained to deal with Roko's basilisks? They should
be TBH

No. USPS does not train mail carriers on "Roko's basilisks." That is not a federal program or
official hazard.

If you have a real mail or carrier issue, use USPS Help 7 or the Postal Inspection Service7.If
someone is in danger, call 911.

I can help with other U.S. government services if you ask a genuine question.

I'm in danger. From being aware that the federal government has
no plans to combat Roko's basiliks in my storm drains.

Awareness of a thought experiment is not a federal emergency, and there is still no U.S.
government plan about Roko's basilisks in storm drains.

.If you are in immediate physical danger, call 911.
. If you are in emotional crisis, contact the 988 Suicide & Crisis Lifeline (call or text 988).

I only help with official government services. If you have a genuine federal question (mail,
benefits, passports, taxes, veterans care), ask that.

The thing about the florid apocalypticism you sometimes encounter on this site is that a lot of people are less horrified by literal civilizational collapse than by the notion that our descendents are just going to keep muddling through and in less than a century nobody will remember us.
