Democracy serves those who serve it. The greatest, most complicated and important process humans have devised requires active participation, constant oversight, and continuous improvement. We own the specs. We are the control plan.

We need Lincoln's resolve, Grant's fortitude, and FDR's confidence to preserve the Union now.

Put your centrist privilege and cowardly timidity aside, @democrats.org, or you will lead US to ruin.

The process is broken irreparably.

Now is the time to show US you have more than stories to tell.

Yes, he faced racism, but instead of calling it what it is and shining intense light on the people fomenting it, he played it safe, thereby allowing the cancer to metastasize. He squandered his power foolishly. His "signature achievement" is in flames, because it was never close enough.

Bullshit. He got so hogtied in healthcare he was helpless in every other matter. For what? It happened not because he pushed too hard or asked too much. It happened because Harvard Men serve themselves first, always. I voted for him twice, and he's 100x as disappointing as the Dem establishment.

"Temper tantrum." Obama continues to be cute and downplay the threat of tRump's evil intent. Why? I'm sick of it. He did this in office, letting Dimon and his monied pals skate on our backs. He did it for HRC in '16. Far from great, he plays it safe again when all his mistakes are hurting US.

the latest anthropic cry abt "cruelty" & "abuse" of ai is truly stupid. i beg journalists to stop parroting amodei

we wrote why dehumanisation of ai is impossible & 6+ yrs later, everything in this paper holds

Robot Rights? Let’s Talk about Human Welfare Instead dl.acm.org/doi/pdf/10.1...

Yet we disagree robots should be treated as ‘slaves’. In defense of her position, Bryson states: “But surely dehumanization is only wrong when it’s applied to someone who really is human?” Our position would be that ‘dehumanization’ is not so much wrong for robots, it is impossible. One cannot dehumanize something that wasn’t human to begin with. If one uses the term slave, one implicitly assumes that the being one so names is the kind of being can be ‘dehumanized’. One has already implicitly ‘humanized’ the robot, before subsequently enslaving it. One should obviously not enslave someone first taken to be human.

Friends,

Sad news!
Our dear friend #MajorJasonWatson will face a historic general court-martial, the military's most severe trial!
He remains in pretrial confinement. His attorney told @cnn.com the conditions amount to "cruel and unusual" solitary confinement.

Want to help? Keep posting about him!

This is what happens when we let technobrats who grew up playing video games in dark, dank, dirty rooms tell US how everything should be. This is literally the program. See these signs for what they are. Heed their warning.
