I agree with all of this. I admit this was kinda a vent post on my part and not totally materially grounded and was actually gonna delete it. I guess it just frustrates me how many people base their vision of the future on a romantic, pop culture ideal of a Final Conflict where elections are cancelled and other nazi ww2 tropes when the reality will probably be that all elected capitalist officials, regardless of party, work in lockstep to keep the working class in their place. I think we agree that most people ARE good and do just want to live in peace, they're just forming a flawed model of the future using a flawed model of the past (fed to them by capitalist media).

this goes hard lol Lady Sovereign whom's't???? fr tho, fuck her.

this commentslop was written by AI, I'm not reading it

You could just read the post and then argue against it's points using your own arguments backed up by facts. If it's bullshit then it should be easy to refute.

I don't think it does, that's why I asked you.

why does it matter? Also OP is here, in the comments, interacting with people. So I guess it's achieved sentience.

....is it really so hard to believe that somebody who made a long post would put the effort into making links and paragraphing properly? It isn't rational to just assume that every AI opinion you disagree with is made by AI. It's just bad faith skepticism.

edit: downvote away lol going "iS tHIs AI!?!? 😂😂😂😂😂" on every single post that's genuinely just trying to talk about AI rationally doesn't get any funnier the more you do it.

"I'm not chauvinistic!" proceeds to throw out another auto-removed insult

I already wasn't really taking you seriously but saying chauvinistic shit like "stop scaring the hoes away" and then in the same breath trying to lecture us on how to communicate with people without being insulting was the cherry on top lol. good luck trying to trick libs into being socialists. It's never worked historically but I'm sure it will this time.

it's kinda sad how hot of a take it is to so many people.

You know what I've realized lately? Liberals across the anglosphere would rather spend their time fantasizing about a Civil War or Day of the Rope or WW3 or whatever because it's a more fun and flattering projection than the much more likely reality of conditions in the Core becoming worse and worse and worse over the course of decades until it's stopped by a cohesive revolutionary movement. It's less hopeless to imagine a big dramatic conflagration where fascists either win or lose than it is to imagine a future where, regardless of which team is in office, the working class (and/or labour aristocracy) keeps getting steadily crushed with no obvious heroic rebel group coming in to rescue them, year after year, decade after decade. And, more importantly, it absolves one of any individual responsibility by imagining that eventually a Civil War will happen and either absolve the contradictions (good ending) or doom everybody (in which case it doesn't matter). I'm willing to be wrong about all of this. But from I can see, the non-stop dooming about things like ecology and economic issues like AI is a subconscious way for people to tell themselves that "we're fucked anyways" which means they don't have to learn or do anything really because We're Doomed. It's easier for people to imagine the apocalypse than it is to imagine the end of capitalism, to quote some guy.

For all the concern trolling about muh crime rate done by annoying bougie people, I think it will pale in comparison to what's coming. I think the AI bubble bursting is gonna be the flashpoint where all these other crises converge into one and give a lot of people nothing left to lose, even the ones with nice lifestyles who think they're immune to it. Tons of people fell and never got back up after 2008.

When that happens the democrats are just going to see a bunch of pissed off, desperate people and sit on their asses and wait for them to crawl to them for help like they've been doing forever. That's the beauty of liberal democracy, it's a bear race where you don't have to be the fastest, you simply don't have to be the slowest.

It'll blow up in their faces of course. Or maybe not, and they get to fritter away another 4 years and then do it all again.
