It took about 7 years for the Republican party to change from the Bush/Cheney era to full on fascism.

They need a scapegoat, but what they need more is the certainty that the shooter won’t do more damage.

When RT calls you a dictator, you might be doing something good.

Social media echo chambers made us tolerant to extreme opinions and irrational ideas presented as facts. Nobody fights back against bullshit anymore.

The [AI] safety stuff is more visceral to me after a weekend of vibe hacking,” Lemkin said. I explicitly told it eleven times in ALL CAPS not to do this. I am a little worried about safety now.

This sounds like something straight out of The Onion.

You may be right… I just wish I could be as optimistic as you are. The political opposition to Trump’s changes is very, very weak, and with all the money ICE has now, I’m afraid any popular movement will be swiftly repressed.
