In a post-October 7th world, the counter is simply "so where are the goddamn bodies then?" It takes less than a minute to find hundreds of photos and videos of Palestinian kids with their brains falling out of their blown off skulls and Palestinians carrying bags of viscera of what's left of their murdered relatives. Xinjiang is more than 4500 times larger than Gaza, so there should be around 4k more footage of genocide in Xinjiang if there was an actual genocide.

"B-b-but cultural genocide" Cultural genocide always follows or is concurrent with genocide genocide because people never willingly surrender their culture without putting up a fight first, which means the people most able to put up a fight have to be exterminated first in order for cultural genocide to actually work. So where are the goddamn bodies then?

"B-b-but seeseepee surveillance state" More than the Zionist entity being a surveillance state itself and pioneer of surveillance technology? The Zionist entity has completely surrounded Gaza as an open prison, which is very easy to do when Palestinians are crammed into a rectangle that's only 365 km^2. Nothing goes in or out without the Zionist entity's knowledge (except for paragliders apparently lmao) and yet we still see footage of dead Palestinians every day. So where are the goddamn bodies then?

 

People throughout the world are delighted by Santa Claus, a jolly old man who distributes presents to good kids. But little do people know that this is a culmination of machinations by the CIA spanning decades to rehabilitate a man charged with war crimes and drug trafficking.

Santa Claus is the latest nom de guerre of Hans Klaus. While Klaus's early life is shrouded in mystery due to subsequent coverup by the CIA, Klaus was believed to be born in Germany during the 1900s where he quickly joined the Nazi Party as an industrialist manufacturing coke-infused carbonated beverages for the SS. Proudly touted as the youngest industrialist to employ concentration camp slave labor, Herr Klaus had his first setback when the Red Army destroyed his factories in Nazi-occupied Europe.

US intelligence, fearing that the secrets of coke-infused beverages would fall to the Soviets, quickly ferried Klaus to the US under Operation Paperclip. There, Klaus would adopt the first of many pseudonyms. His pseudonym while living in the US was believed to be Nikolai Petrovich. Klaus, posing as a Soviet dissident, would have his first taste in producing propaganda, which he would put into great use later in his life when suspicions of being behind the JFK assassination begin to hound him.

While being part of an operation to set up a reconnaissance base in the North Pole to spy on the Soviets, the CIA-led time discovered a secret society of elves. The CIA wasted no time in staging a coup to overthrow the elven government. Klaus was selected to rule over the elves as a puppet leader on behalf of the CIA. Leveraging Klaus's previous experience in making coke beverages and employing slave labor, the elves were forced into slavery where they begin making cocaine. The quality of elf cocaine proved to be legendary and within a decade, Klaus has his grubby hands in almost every single major drug trafficking operation in the world.

One of the biggest misconceptions is that Klaus lives in the North Pole when his main base of operations is really in Argentina. Using connections from the Nazi diaspora living there. Klaus began building what would become a virtually impregnable fortress in Argentina. The drug lord fortress, fit for a drug lord king like Klaus, is rumored to include a nuclear bunker and houses an entire regiment of Klaus's private army.

Klaus eventually adopted the name and identity "Santa Claus" after the assassination of JFK. While definite connections between Klaus and the assassination of JFK are still murky, rumors swirl of Klaus being the mastermind behind the JFK assassination after scholars discover a previously undiscovered recording where JFK clearly stressed the need to begin an offensive against Christmas. It is believed Klaus adopted the Santa Claus persona in an attempt to simultaneously rehabilitate the image of Christmas and to stimulate the US domestic economy through Christmas-induced consumerism.

This is AI music. Their channel description admits it:

We've grown more open to AI’s role in creation, as it becomes a standard part of many artistic workflows. Being against it can feel like a privilege. The technology is here to stay, and we aim to use it in a meaningful way that resonates with us and our audience. Meaning is not universal, what may seem empty to you can bring joy and connection to others, regardless of the tools used.

Incidentally, the music of SFII and a lot of videogame music of that era was inspired by this particular Japanese jazz fusion album. Here's one track: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5Sd3uuAKCz4

Sound familiar?

Hans "Santa Claus" Klaus has his grubby hands in almost every single major drug trafficking operation. From his drug lord fortress in Argentina, he has bases throughout the globe including the North Pole. Klaus first made money manufacturing coke-infused carbonated beverages for the SS, only fleeing to Argentina after the Red Army destroyed his factory manned by concentration camp inmates. Rumors swirl of Klaus being the mastermind behind the JFK assassination after scholars discover a previously undiscovered recording where JFK clearly stressed the need to begin an offensive against Christmas.

Someone finally punched Jack Paul's smug punchable face.

Those are just liberals who hate Deng for running over them students with his comically large tank.

I always thought tier lists made the most sense if you just consider them a ranking list based on matchups weighed with the proportion of characters within a given tournament or meta.

The general formula to calculate the weighed matchup average for any given character would be:

weighed matchup average of char x = (percentage of char 1 used in a tournament)*(matchup between x and char 1) + (percentage of char 2 used in a tournament)*(matchup between x and char 2) + ... + (percentage of char n used in a tournament)*(matchup between x and char n)

percentage of char n used in a tournament is just empirical data. Even matchups can be empirical data as well if we treat it as the percentage of matches won by x over n instead of theorycrafting like most people treat it.

I just hate how vibe based tier lists are. And I wouldn't mind it being vibe based except people still treat them with a veneer of something that's quantifiable.

The real divide is between modders vs game devs, not AAA games vs "indie" games.

Abrahamic religions in general are a bit philosophically incompatible with materialism.

They are also philosophically incompatible with dialectics. Not all religions are undialectical like the Abrahamic religions. The nature of God is essentially that of a static entity that cannot and will not change. This is anathema to the idea of internal contradictions driving development because by virtue of being a perfect entity, God cannot have internal contradictions and has no direction to go to because he is already there.

You can see the undialectical conception of God spill over to other parts of the theology. There's a belief that certain early Christians held that Jesus started out as an ordinary man and through facing and overcoming trials ends up as the Son of God. This is a dialectical understanding of Jesus because his nature changes from man to godly through external contradictions (being tempted by Satan, being crucified) and internal contradictions (praying in the Garden of Gethsemane before being betrayed by Judas).

But of course, this was seen as heretical and what we have instead is a Jesus that is already godly the moment he was born. He started out as the Son of God and he ended up as the Son of God. But the static treatment of Jesus in most (almost all?) branches of Christianity makes his entire journey pointless. Satan offering the world to Jesus if he would worship Satan means absolutely nothing if Jesus is already the Son of God. Why would someone who has a throne in Heaven reserved for him be remotely tempted by the crowns of various shitty Earthly kingdoms?

The Great Khan has commissioned the Forty-Five Histories of the Great Khans of the Western Horde, with excerpts inscribed on bronze tablets.

Late reply to the post.

My question is - and this is an open-ended question - would this be art? Is this artistry? Has deepseek become an artist? Why so? Why not?

I would say no because Deepseek cannot perform labor. No tool can perform labor. That's the whole point of the dialectic between labor and capital. Without labor, capital is just dead stuff. Capital is dead labor, that, vampire-like, only lives by sucking living labor after all. Value can only intrinsically be found within nature and can only be further cultivated through labor. The labor is ultimately performed by the prompter and human technical staff maintaining the data centers and other network infrastructure, not the LLM.

I don't think LLMs or any algorithms in general can perform labor. At best, an android with AGI can perform labor, but that's different from saying the AGI itself performs labor. The human equivalent would be like saying the consciousness of the human worker performs labor when it's the entire body of the human, from their eyes to their muscles to their heart to their lungs to their skeleton and so, that performs labor.

None of this would happen if all Mamdani news gets quarantined to /c/electoralism.
