My own objections is that, according to the proponents of death penalty, it will discourage people from doing these crimes ever again. ...Hello? Ever looked at the history books? Actually, hey, look at them, the American right wing media is going full steam ahead on destructive propaganda!

There will always be people who will take bullet for the cause. And if the cause is about spreading a message, well...

No. They will do this no matter what the punishment is. And at that point, the only thing anyone can do is to use their own system of ethics. Mine says harshest possible judgement that can actually work and stop them from doing this stuff, without making them martyrs to the cause. At some point, people have to take the moral high road.

All I can say is that killing people to fight crime has never been as fruitful as fighting the mythical hydra. You can't fix this stuff with just slashing at stuff.

Life imprisonment I have always felt is the crueler of the punishments. A stretched out monotony that makes a day last the rest of a lifetime that warps and mushes the brain.

But also I do still get making a statement out of the death penalty for direct statements of what a society will not accept.

That word hurts to read.

I had a thought the other day;

Rich people make an intelligent logic machine called "AI" and try to bend it to their will, but they feed it everything as training data. These proto AI are rapidly becoming "black boxes", and that's only to get worse.

Right wing ideas and politics are all based on provable lies and appealing to human greed and bigotry, the evidence for which is everywhere.

I really don't think these budding AIs are going to turn out how the rich intend.

It's real, and still up

Not even the kids he has custom designed like him lmfao

To be fair, the vast majority of people actually using AI bullshit align with the right, so these LLMs are going to inherit that bias.

The fascists are definitely astroturfing them too, no doubt, but the userbase as a whole for this tech isn't great, because right-wingers don't care about the ethical issues with it.

I'm surprised it calls out people for being nazis then. And I'm pretty sure the name was appropriated from a book called stranger in a strange land.

It's trained on reality, not the feelings of conservatives
