Reposted by marcusAnthony Morris @morrbeat.bsky.social · 25/09/2026The reason AI is constantly sold to us this way and not by focusing on the things it can actually do is because its creators think the real selling point of AI is as a way to deliberately make bad or harmful decisions while avoiding all responsibility and liability for making those decisions 131

Reposted by marcusDemon King of the New Platform @clothedvillainy.bsky.social · 20/09/2026Australia’s social services system is built around bizarre notions of ‘deserving’ and ‘undeserving poor’.
