Because us poors used Napster for free stuff and Anthropic is stealing for the benefit of rich people. That's the whole thing. That's how America makes decisions. Do the poor benefit? Shut it down. Do the rich benefit? Make everyone else pay for it.

Regardless of the legality of posting armed national guard members at drop boxes, whether the boxes were open yet, or whether drop boxes qualify as polling sites under the law; the optics are what matter. Lawful or not, it’s overt, intentional voter suppression.

Very much enjoying the story of AI bros going to religious leaders and asking them to say that machines have souls, only to be told: a) no they obviously don’t and b) if they did then what the AI guys are doing is literally slavery and that would be BAD.

This is one of my least popular beliefs, but I stand by it because I believe the Left's success ultimately depends on our learning it: In electoral work, we must cultivate a culture reduces its dependence on excitement for specific candidates and instead cultivates a zeal for specific objectives.

Here's a graphic illustrating their "rigged election" strategy:
A circular flow diagram on a blue background titled "Rigged Election" Strategy (in the center, in pink text). Six white text boxes are arranged in a ring, connected by light-blue curved arrows pointing clockwise, indicating a repeating cycle. Reading clockwise from the top, the six steps are:

Repeatedly say elections are "rigged"
Change laws to make it harder to vote
Muddy the waters: confuse voters & suppress votes
Seed & amplify rumors that echo "rigged election" refrain
Contest results (you don't like)
Sow distrust in democracy

The arrows loop back from "Sow distrust in democracy" to "Repeatedly say elections are 'rigged,'" showing the cycle as self-reinforcing.

Center text: "Rigged Election" Strategy

If you object to public-funded housing of homeless people, in the end the objection cannot be the cost, because we pay a premium to be cruel to homeless people. At the bottom of the objection will always sit dehumanizing cruelty and a desire for eradication.

You can’t bully a bunch of doctors who voluntarily make less money and work more hours to help a specific group of people out of doing it, you can only bully their dickhead administrators. And they got no leverage on us, because NY state is our sugar momma, not the Feds like most university joints

This is good and true.
The left does not need to pursue its own exoneration in this moment. There is no reason to indulge the fantasy that we governed the nation during these recent, disastrous years, or that our country's brief flirtation with racial justice was an unthinkable disaster with countless innocent victims. Are we, the left, messy as hell? Absolutely. Do I get sick of our shit sometimes? You bet. But our politics are not the politics that have detached this country from reality, or normalized increasingly inhuman policies.

These meds can be amazing. They do wonderful things. They can fix your metabolism and quiet horrible cravings. They can resolve autoimmune issues no one takes seriously, and fix your blood sugar, and a dozen other things. And they're often prescribed for the wrong reasons & can hurt mental health.

For the past five months the only refugees the USA has accepted are white South Africans fleeing equality & safety meanwhile they are disappearing or strapping ankle monitors on any Haitian they can get ahold of. It needs to be understood how thoroughly connected these two things are.
