If people can't tell if you're recording or not, they're just going to have to assume you are, and respond accordingly. I don't know why anyone would think this decreases the odds of someone wearing surveillance glasses getting their ass kicked.

They want to believe in an infallible strongman to whom they can subvert their own will, while also claiming to be bold innovative truth tellers for doing so, and they want to believe that their is a single objective source of all truth. In this case, they're using a robot instead of some guy.

There is a reason that AI is so attractive to fascists. It allows its users (adherents might be a better word) to hand over their decision-making, their thinking, their autonomy, to something they can convince themselves is bigger, stronger, and smarter than them.

I'll be honest I made this post a little bit hoping someone would say it's tasteless to plug our show on the back of someone's death just so I could laugh at the irony. It's what he would have wanted, with the single exception of hating everything we stand for.

Jim Bakker was a piece of shit and the grift he was doing in the last years of his life is a perfect example of the wrong way to prep. You don't need buckets of freeze dried slop, you need skills and community. Check out our podcast for more on that. live-like-the-world-is-dying.pinecast.co

You're back three months later to continue an argument where you were just saying the same things over and over? This is not healthy behavior, you good? If the book didn't meet your specifications maybe you could find something in its 40+ pages of citations that does. Please go outside today.

Border patrol agents have entered private property in Lochiel Az, without showing a warrant I’m told, to remove people who have been camping there. They’re also setting up an exclusion zone around the tree that’s being defended.
