I'm not sure "Black Americans are one of the most oppressed therefore they have the most revolutionary potential" by itself a good, complete analysis. The main counterpoint I would make is that Black Americans are also the most religious of any race in the US, and are therefore likely harder to radicalize, in part because on top of being religious, they predominately belong to churches that are more socially conservative than non-Black Democrats. Frankly, if the GOP ever managed to stop being fucking racist, you would likely see a significantly shift in Black voter alignment in the US. This is, of course, also not a complete list or analysis of why Mamdani didn't get as much support, just an additional point I wanted to make.

I will never forgive AI for forcing me to stop using em-dashes because now everyone assumes you used AI if you use them. BUTLERIAN JIHAD NOW!

What if we did Los Zetas, but gringo style?

I propose we work on cutting off the money supply to the cartels by giving every member of Mar-a-Lago and the Trump admin a hair drug test.

The judge took one look at the 14 pages ChatGPT generated to describe a meal and said "I've seen enough here."

I am doing statistical analysis for "non-technical" people who would likely react by laying people off if they aren't spoonfed the correct takeaways from the data.

Coworkers: Hey, do you have that analysis we requested?

Me, out loud: No, I haven't figured out how to get the data model to work correctly yet.

Me, in my head: Yes, I finished it two days ago, but I don't trust you to not do something stupid with it yet until I can dig into it more.

What is going on here? Are these people who are trying to flip game skins?

The tech people are the same people complaining about non-white men stealing the spots in college that are "rightfully theirs" due to DEI. There's no distance between them and the only people that care about work visas in the US are the ones where someone needs to be in US office, which, outside of servicing something physical, is increasingly less important. None of these tech guys care about whether the work gets done by an Indian engineer in San Francisco or Hyberbad, as long as the work gets done and they pay as little as possible for it.

It seems like they are on the same side at the moment. Not sure what the split would be.
