Lots to criticize about China, but it's nothing if not proven as a stable partner in terms of its approach to international diplomacy and trade. They are consistent about what their goals are.

Nobody can count on the USA anymore. Perhaps they never could and it was always a paper tiger.

The DSA is the best you'll get.

I just don't see what argument you're making.

Steel production is necessary for infrastructure. The point is AI is not efficient. It's adding energy load to the grid in the supposed name of doing things more efficiently, but where is evidence of these gains. Data centres drawing huge amounts of power to do what exactly? Run LLMs?

There is the promise and reality. If it was replacing manual labour and freeing humanity to pursue arts, crafts, and scientific inquiry great. But there's no evidence it's doing that.

Be a politician and give direct, honest, and true answers to questions.... For a start.

Virgin adult having a chad baby is some Bethlehem shit. Praise.

Too many people are either scared or complicit. The US needs some of those heroes they keep inventing for their blockbusters. They probably only need the power of courage and willingness to sacrifice themselves for the greater good.

Only being the operative word.

Just your run of the mill efforts to further the cause of chaos in the name of profit by good ol Uncle Sam.

We want to stop Iran from building a nuclear weapon by giving them every reason to acquire one.

It's amazing. Good for capitalistic competition, but I do wish we could all just work together as well.

Not if they can help it.

Sure, but it's a good question that should be taken seriously, because it matters. It matters when people don't actually care. It's hard for normal people with hearts and souls to imagine. That's why we invented devils and demon possession in the past.

To say they don't give a shit, is to answer your question. It's called sociopathy. It's a plague among the Epstein class and those who would want to be a part of it.

You think they give a shit? They buy the bullshit that this is endangering their children. That there's social contagion and theirs could be next, and it also means their kid might be going to hell etc.

Unfortunately, changing hearts and minds is complicated. But it's the only way we get to a world of empathy toward those of us who are different.

 

I'm not clever enough to do anything but let the meme speak for itself.

Someone glorious on Lemmy made this for me a while back, and it seems to be becoming more and more apt. Enjoy.

 

Among other talents! 🍺 (sauce)
