AI is literally going to change everything. It’s already started, don’t you feel it?

Calling AI a fad is like calling electricity a fad.

Yes.

The author argues that Zuckerberg’s photo looks like that of a middle-aged man cheating on his wife

I would argue the author is a petty asshole.

Every single action you take ripples outwards to the people around you and on in to future generations. You matter just as much as every living thing on earth and in the universe. If you accept the suffering that is inherent in existence and aim towards being the most innate and true version of yourself, you will get the most meaning and consciousness out of life. We are an interconnected, trippy, murderous, loving, intelligent, massive group of apes all experiencing each other’s psyche together. The world wants and needs you to love yourself.

Pretty insidious of you to imply that what I have expressed here is far right, nazism, AND fascism. Do you have any examples where I haven’t been moderate? This is what I meant by downvote brigades, it’s not just the downvotes. It’s the snakelike way in which people (such as you) are arguing with me that I’m disturbed by.

It’s not splitting hairs about semantics when I’ve been called a nazi (multiple times now) for espousing NOTHING in the realm of nazism, and have in fact only condemned it. That’s a huge problem, and it’s my current focus here.

I’m against authoritarianism from any side and I’m also against the deceptive bullshit you’re trying to pull.

How? Why would you resort to lying? I’m pro choice, I despise Trump, I’m pro gay and trans rights, I believe in UBI for everyone (as well as keeping the free market in place), pro legalization (of every drug), pretty anti gun but I still believe it’s peoples right to own them, I think police should be completely reformed and prisons fundamentally changed to be places of rehabilitation. What opinion of mine shows I’m on the right end of the spectrum? Because I believe in nuance and civil discourse? That I think all humans deserve forgiveness and a chance to grow and become better? Please, do enlighten me.

I firmly believe everyone has the right to live freely and to find their own path, provided they don’t harm others. Hate speech and violence have no place in our society, and I wholeheartedly stand with the trans community in advocating for their protection.

Nonetheless, here’s a viewpoint I have that I know is not accepted, but I’ll share it anyway. I believe the compulsion of speech, particularly insisting that all of society adapt their language to accommodate individual identities, is a terrible approach. The notion of forced speech is problematic to me, and worries me greatly.

That said, I believe it’s important to work towards a society that respects every person, but without mandating how we perceive them. Life’s journey is all about confronting adversity, and part of this involves learning to navigate the world as it is, not necessarily as we’d like it to be. Instead of dictating specific definitions, it might be more beneficial to cultivate a culture of empathy, understanding, and open dialogue around these issues. This perspective is unpopular and contentious, but it is a conversation that we should be willing to engage in.

Anyways that’s what I see as the moderate take, and it’s what I believe. I had to tiptoe pretty hard there and I’m sure what I said still comes across as hate speech to some but I don’t feel it is. It’s just my opinion. I wish there was a place I could express it and have an open debate with people about it. We can’t eliminate half of society, and we’re going to have to learn how to empathize with people we disagree with in order to actually see where they are coming from.

Oh don’t even get me started on the downvote brigades from angry leftists around here. Don’t you dare hold a moderate opinion around them, or they call you a nazi and tell you to go back to 4chan. You can read my post history. All I’ve ever expressed is the same sentiment expressed here, and I’ve been met with nothing but absolute vitriol.

What I pretend I mean? Why would you even say that?

Yep that is true.

Yeah but if everyone slightly right of center gets labeled a nazi then you can just call anyone you don’t like a nazi and you can do whatever you want to them. That’s a problem.

I don’t believe I’ve insulted anyone but if you think I have could you point to an example? I’m expressing my opinion (which certainly appears unpopular) and if that is seen as insulting or fighty then I don’t know what to tell you. I’m going to keep expressing my opinion.

Nope.

I don’t want exploding-heads. I would have blocked the instance myself if it hadn’t been blocked already. My issue is I don’t like having content blocked FOR me because I’m a functioning adult that can make my own decisions about what I see and think. You should be careful with how quick you are to cede control of what you’re allowed to see to others. Might make you pretty susceptible to hate and give you a false sense of reality.
