Ezra Klein is hosting a conference promoting his book “Abundance” and it’s literally filled with fascists, including one speaker who wrote an article advocating “deportation abundance.”

He just doesn’t like the aesthetics of the current admin but he is onboard to build more detention centers and less regulation for corporations.
“And I made good friends along the way, so I’ll be pardoning them”
Surprised it’s not called Department of Lawfare and this point.
You actually think those people watch the news and get accurate information? Misinformed people are always going to learn the wrong lesson.
Didn’t Bill Gates fly on the lolita express or something? Bet half the room is on Epstein’s list.
How many of them are on Epstein’s list? Bill Gates got divorced because he was a little to friendly with Epstein…
She’s still defending the rapists, so…
Especially when part of the brain has been eaten
Saying that you’re not worth the time for personal interactions but here’s a reason that’s okay is a platitude.
Too bad they’re likely to learn the wrong lesson.
Additionally, AI will only be getting better,
It might get cheaper, but that doesn’t mean it’s doing a better job.
if the alternative is telling people that are struggling and have no other options that they have to tough it out
That’s just it, if you’re talking to someone who’s is struggling with this there is already a better option: showing empathy. I suspect our perceived lack of empathy is a reflection of how society treats people in general, we are just more honest about it and recognize it’s mostly platitudes.

No Bad Parts: Healing Trauma and Restoring Wholeness with the Internal Family Systems Model Book by Richard C. Schwartz
Lookup internal family systems (a good book would be “No Bad Parts”). It’s like you have parts of yourself arguing and putting other parts down. It’s all parts of you trying to protect you but they maybe don’t recognize the roles each part has. Try to find out what your anger is trying to say, sometimes when the part is heard it is more manageable. The point isn’t to make the anger go away but see if it can let other parts help in whatever need it is trying to accomplish.
Or do what they did in Hong Kong: ship them to another part of the country to stand trial. It’s currently illegal, but probably less illegal than removing juries. They’ll do it because they can’t secure the local jails or something
So they can discriminate based on protected traits as long as they do so using most of the traits. And they wonder why people’s trust in their institution is eroding.
