And because of how *useful* this fallacious moral position is, this blindness to injustice and obsession with false unity, they've been *reinforced* in their wrongness for a half century.
Basically, this shit is *deeply woven into their identities*, to the point where they'd rather the Holocaust happen again than people treat the AfD with too much disrespect. Because that's what *being an adult* is, and God knows we need more adulting like that in this fucked world of ours.

@johnzajac Does this overlap with the notion that maybe the ACLU shouldn't be using their resources to defend the freedom of speech of Nazis?

This is a thread about how liberals destroyed the world.
@johnzajac thank you for this esp since things are indeed getting worse, i.e. this non-argument you're correctly fighting against is popping up all over. Like I talk about this and it's called "shaming" etc. https://scholar.social/@olivia/116357303546392362

@johnzajac What a horrible gaslighty abusive OP.
"We don't want AI at all."
"Too bad. We're adding it anyway."
"Fuck you."
"Ugh, it's so EASY to convince yourself that ABUSE and HARASSMENT are okay! You should be engaging with us in good faith to influence how we implement AI in your browser. Otherwise we'll just do whatever we want."Exactly and exactly why banning all the people sucking up in this shitty thread has been quite productive!

@johnzajac Wheb someone demand something if mastodon, it really means they don't get shit and their brain is rotten by big tech BS.
You don't demand any change on mastodon. You implement them. And if nobody gives a fuck, well that's that.
This guy can start he's own AI bros friendly instance, and see how they will all be eventually getting blocked.
Yup.

Yes! I noticed that many articles are shifting from trying to defend "AI" (it's indefensible, I think they've realized?) to doubling down on the disinformation that what is called "AI" (e.g. ChatGPT, Claude) is the same as ML applications that have become truly revolutionary over the last ten years, AND this technology is *inevitable*, so we "need to shift from being anti-AI to being midwives and partners to the coming "AI" future" so we can shape it.

Fascinating thread John, I lost track of all of the blocks after 8 or so. Each block is filed under "half-braindead liberal vipers" in honor of one of those silly ass posts. Also given several of them were @dice.camp an instance ban is potentially next up.

Scott Jensen's concern, in a nutshell, is the abuse and harrassment that AI propagandists have to face here, on Mastodon.
His concern about the unethical, immoral, and destructive externalities of yes, even "local AI models"? His concern about the deliberate, strategic conflation of ML applications like medicine and materials development? Protein folding? Physics modeling?
Apparently not urgent enough to even mention.
No, it's the propagandists receiving rudeness he finds alarming.

@johnzajac as Scott Jenson is the Product Strategy Advisor to Mastodon Core team it makes the whole project suspect

"Yes, I know that my "AI" use is rendering areas of the world uninhabitable but how *else* will I find grammatical errors in my writing 80% of the time?"

Liberals are singularly incapable of distinguishing between a just peace and MLK's "false peace of injustice".
It's like they're colorblind except in this instance it's not that they can't tell colors apart, it's that they can't figure out what the difference is between the Nazi invaders and the French Resistance.
"What I'm really concerned about," some liberal somewhere must have said in 1943, "is that the French Resistance is killing people, too. How are they different from Nazis?!?"

@johnzajac putting liberals in a monolith is a mistake, we are not that. I'm a left leaning liberal, we exist.
-
So when these liberals wander around demanding that we leave the "echo chamber" (the fact-based world, in this instance) so we can be considered "reasonable", and in doing so find themselves defending *PLANET-DESTROYING TECHNOLOGIES CREATED BY CARTOONISHLY EVIL ROBBER BARONS*, it's not aberrant: it's how their ideology works.
They will *always* push back on moral thinking to make space for evil, because *that's the core idea behind their politics*.
And they think it's noble.

@johnzajac I think you've misplaced the topic of that branch of the conversation.
Here's the brigading event we were talking about (Dare responded to my share of it):

I think the aggressive language and threats are really dark. You might think they're justified.
