It's *almost* funny, almost, that people are just starting to wake up to what is happening. Why? Because I have spent over ten years (on various platforms) warning this was going to happen, and specifically who is behind it , and from where - i.e. the HeritageFoundation/ATLAS Network & Austrian FPÖ

Hearing leftist people bring up this kind of analysis as reason for not going to vote. I'd say, as disgusting as the situation is, please go to vote, put your weight forward. Vote for holding out against the right, or for pure optimism, but we should always vote.

A hidden list of 100 abusers in Silicon Valley. Left unstated: some are abusing *men* Sam Altman used to date Peter Thiel, known for recruiting young men for sex (one died of suicide). Sam's sex parties are notorious for how hard they go, and the abuse. Three sources told me about this:
nypost.com
Silicon Valley ‘sex assault list’ with ‘over 100 ‘ names circulated, warning female tech workers of predators to avoid
“Some of them were very prominent names, you know? People who were famous investors. Businessmen who were in the scene”

Good job, California. 15 states to go. No child should marry. A child who marries isn’t emancipated, her (and it’s usually a girl) new spouse becomes her guardian. If he abuses her, she cannot go to a domestic violence shelter. She cannot initiate a divorce. She can’t have her own money.

California bans child marriage, even with parental permission
Supporters hail ban on child marriage and companion bill to address forced marriages as “most comprehensive framework” in the U.S.

There are NOT machine-made clothes. If there were, your clothes would be made in the country you live in (where the customers are), or in China (where machines are cheap). They’re made in Bangladesh or India or Indonesia because that’s where the LABOUR is cheap. Your clothes are made by people.
Joyce Carol Oates says: “This is why Al-generated romance novels make perfect sense. Formulaic fiction doesn't need to be written by hand, so to speak; what difference does it make if a machine "writes" it? There are machine-made clothes & there are custom-made clothes. They appeal to
different consumers.“

I’ve been a media witness to two federal executions. One was Oklahoma City bomber Timothy McVeigh. The other, a week later, was a drug kingpin named Juan Raul Garza. My conclusion after watching both men die: The death penalty should not exist. Period. It fixes nothing, and it erodes our souls.

You're never going to figure out how to write a power fantasy for women or people from marginalized groups if you don't take the time to study their marginalization and how they are uniquely limited and denied by the mainstream.

One of the things to come from GamerGate was the gamification of torturing real, live women...hounding them out of their homes, making them look over their shoulders for years. It was treated as a joke, nbd, the work of a few bad apples--as all terrorism against women is--& that failure leads here.

shutting down frat houses won't end rape culture, but it will disorganize a lot of rapists, and i think that's probably worth doing if only to destabilize what is apparently an ecology of organizations that functionally exist to rape women per the whole "purpose of a system is what it does" insight.

p.s. "The National Panhellenic Conference, which governs the country’s 26 major sororities, maintains that sisters can’t swig booze in sorority houses — even as the fraternity down the street throws a keg party," sending the women into enemy territory to drink. Prohibition should be on frat houses.

I believe fraternity hazing and military hazing and sports team hazing where men abuse each other is acclimating them into a broader culture of abuse where they will then believe it is their right to abuse other more vulnerable people. It’s so insidious. And that’s also why I think men defend it

“The only evidence we have that LLMs can ‘think’ comes from our ability to make sense of the synthetic text they extrude… In order to interpret text, we have to imagine a mind behind the text.” This is a good piece on how we conceive “intelligence” when it comes to that nebulous thing we call “AI.”
