I am not sure what you mean by saying the CPC isn’t Communist anymore.

The CPC has never been communist.

It’s socialist.

The number drops a bit when the polls are done in secrecy. Still far higher than any western government, mind.

To clarify for any pseudo intellectual who happens to be reading:

“<X> is true for <reason> you utter idiot” is not an example of the ad hominem fallacy.

“<X> is true because you’re an utter idiot” is an example of the ad hominem fallacy.

Glad to be of service.

Have you considered taking a communications course so you don’t sound like a pretentious, obfuscating jackass?

Eschew gratuitous obfuscation. (See what I mean?)

In AI alone, we lead the world.

Maybe you want to edit this so there’s a direct link? Like putting in !unlockthread@lemm.ee in the text somewhere (or whatever the link format is)?

I think even darker (as the response to @Glide@lemmy.ca indicates). When I see incel behaviour from a man, I make damned sure that man is always in my sight and at a distance. And I won’t accept any drink from him, nor any invitation to go somewhere else, even if it’s in the same building.

Well yes. It’s about sex and specifically forcing sex.

They’re wannabe rapists, in effect.

There is absolutely a cure for incels, yes, but nobody in the west would like it. So you’re kind of stuck with them.

The prostitution thing won’t work, though. I actually got fed up with a loud incel peripheral to a social circle I was part of and snapped, offering to hire him a hooker right then and there so he could STFU about how he’d never been laid.

Immediately he moved the goalposts and said he didn’t just want to get laid, he wanted a “genuine emotional relationship”. Saying this despite for the previous two hours only ever talking about sex, sex appeal, sexual characteristics, etc. with not a word spent on “genuine emotion”.

Some people just want to whine, and when they gather in groups they spiral destructively.

It just lacks machines that think. Which we do too, but the things they’re trying to push as thinking are already causing extreme damage to our culture …

… time for the Butlerian Jihad before things get so bad you need an existential war to fix them.

I highlighted the parts you missed. You might want to clean your screen so you can see all the words before responding.

Now compare Lemmy, a phone, or the Internet to “a machine in the likeness of a human mind”.

Dune is full of machines. It just lacks machines that think. Which we do too, but the things they’re trying to push as thinking are already causing extreme damage to our culture, so … time for the Butlerian Jihad before things get so bad you need an existential war to fix them.

This is the danger of a “quick look”. It makes you look ridiculous when you talk about it later.

Have you heard of the Butlerian Jihad?

My vision isn’t quite as extreme.

Quite.

Do you think we should still harvest fields by hands instead of using tractors?

That is absolutely not the issue and you know it. How do I know you know it? Because you’re not a moron, which leaves only “disingenuous”.

Your “harvest field by hands” thing isn’t even remotely close to the issue. AI isn’t a tractor making tilling, seeding, harvesting, etc. etc. etc. easier. AI is stealing, say, the wheat from other people’s farms and putting it into your silo and making bread with it.

Yes. Open source. So you give a few hundred lines of material so that people can steal millions to billions of lines of it.

A perfect exchange that is.

I’ve been tempted to go there a few times, but then I realized the only question I’d have is “WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK IS WRONG WITH ALL Y’ALL!?” and decided that would be unproductive.

I think people just hate ai.

And yet you don’t take the further step of asking why people “just hate ai”.

Building a project around the mass theft of culture is a problem to me. Hence the downvote.

This right here is most especially tedious to me: all the “politics” discussion really meaning “American political obsessions”. There’s only 350 million or so Americans and yet they act as if their politics are all that matters to the remaining 7.7 billion or so of us.

Technically speaking you’d have to say they did war crimes by modern standards.

A lot of what you describe wasn’t actually criminal at the time, see. It was called “war”.

Doesn’t make it any less horrific, mind.
