AI was supposed to save the world.

These sociopaths have taken the only hope i ever thought we had and are going to use it to screw us. I want the money changers out of the temple NOW.

dumb people shouldn't participate in society. no one is ever going to legislate that. it's up to us to make sure they don't.

nah. at any given time, we (the good guys) can easily defeat the bad guys. it's pretty fucking simple. you just have to organize, understand the problem, and be willing to think outside the box.

i think we've just been using the wrong tools. i think all we really need is encrypted messaging and [redacted].

there's more we can do. united, we can do anything. every great achievement of mankind was because people bound together to accomplish a goal. anybody can organize. governments and corporations don't have a patent on organization.

we tried that in the early days of the internet. it didn't work. once grandpa got on facebook, it was over.

look at one of those maps of america showing the red and blue areas. they have an in group that spans the width of the country nearly. we outnumber them but they have an empire of culture.

plus, it's christian nationalism. they're not going to give up that position. i've been watching it develop for a long time, i only see one way out of it.

but seriously. meaningful legislation is going to get torpedoed by republicans. the most important fight we can fight is to topple all conservative power.

there's no point in trying to legislate when they know that everything they do will be sabotaged by the opposition.

bingo. who would care what a cretin thinks. now, the next problem is what do you do when they still get a say in what your life and the lives of others will be like?

their value system is completely opposed to ours. there is no point in any kind of good faith debate. they want in groups and out groups. they cannot be reasoned with. drop that entire concept and ask yourself what comes next if the fate of the world hangs in the balance.

i wonder if it's possible to know where the stage would be set up in advance. i wonder if you could plant explosives that can evade detection.

i think they're targeting the education system because it doesn't teach their religion as the truth. i think it all circles back around to in group/out group behavior and they use their religion to enforce their in group. destroy religion. if they want to cling to it, they can go too.
