You are mixing a lot of things here : capitalist vs anti capitalist regime is not this same as progressive/conservative politics.

If you believe social progress should benefit only you and not me, you are not progressive.

And I’d like to point out that all regimes you mention are not different from any other : they all had a ruling class. This is, again, not progressive.

And as I pointed out in an other comment: studies suggest that Totalitarianism is not about left or right, because they use the same concepts to validate their ideologies.

We can crash rockets without use of LLMs, thank you very much https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ariane_flight_V88

What you define is segregation : a society where progress benefits me, but not you, because you are different.

If we consider one of the key value of the “left” being progress, I think it is difficult to concillate both.

You can indeed be a right wing liberal, it is however more difficult to be a left wing conservative

Quick reminder that anthropic CEO praised Trump for his AI plans. Anthropic also created an organization to help elect politicians that favor them and their business.

A broken clock and all that.

Ok, the containers one is interesting. The other fortnine one lacks evidence.

You spelled a lifelong experience of bending forward without complaining wrong.

You could make an argument that if a song is listened a lot, it means a lot of people find it good and thus is could not be bad. But then again, Suicide Squad was a successful movie if you were to base your judgement on popularity.

Microsoft does not care about you, your computer or your licence. Microsoft cares about having a monopoly in business applications. By being the only player in this field, they ensure that they remain the (almost) only OS on personal computer. If your work uses Microsoft, your school will teach you Microsoft and you will more than likely buy a laptop to run Microsoft product. And they will collect everything.

An electoral system always creates a ruling class. If you want to remove it, you need to randomly pick citizens and rotate them every x years. It’s the only option to have a legislative body that is actually representative of the people, be it for the better or the worst.

No but you don’t get it. AI is such an amazing tool, it can do everything and replace everyone. Did you try my new model yet? It’s blazing fast and can tell you to drive to the car wash to clean your car. It’s will revolutionize the world

What is sad IMO is that he’s quite freaking good. It’s kind of a waste.

I concur. It’s way better to eat the deer and fuck the bat. If you have tape, that is.

I use salt as a a weed killer in some specific area. So I guess I know, at least a little bit

I would tend to agree with you, but I worked a few years as a reporter. The pressure to shit articles as fast as possible, the time constraint and the constant fear of loosing your job sadly does not allow proper reporting. This has a deep impact on society and nobody gives a shit.

When I was younger, I would often splodey too when thinking about Carmen electron

As long as you don’t dismember them
