Unfortunately yes, take it from experience. I know it but not many people know about Rowling being a bigot sad to say. Best thing you can do is educate someone. No berating, no yelling, best thing you can do is approach it as something grave and hope for the best they learn.

Big actually. We need to continue pushing them but the screen act was fucking awful. KOSA is almost equally bad but this shows that we may be able to pull this off as a community.
While the SCREEN Act failed in the committee, KOSA did move forward. Contact your senators immediately demanding it be opposed, and keep the pressure up until it comes to a vote in the Senate
The Senate Commerce Committee just passed KOSA out of committee with zero debate & failed to move the SCREEN Act. punchbowl.news/article/tech...
They refused to vote for Clinton, Biden, or Harris all while screaming “earn my vote” and just assume that’s how everyone treats politics cause they haven’t logged off of Reddit in 15 years.
It gets an actual chuckle out of me seeing people on here say "now the TRUE test is whether the shitlibs can live up to their own words and line up behind El-Sayed!" only for Stevens, Whitmer, every prominent Michigan Dem, the DSCC, etc. to have endorsed El-Sayed before they can finish the sentence.
Now watch as the so called faux progressives turn the other cheek and brand El-Sayed an AIPAC shillings simply because he got Haley Stevens backing

Very cute that leftists actually think "Withholding an endorsement when I lose because I'm just so mad and also afraid my supporters will stop giving me money if I'm seen as selling out" is a universal problem
Turns out us shitlibs don't have a problem with that! We're good at supporting the winner even when the winner isn't who we want!

The vast canyon of difference in quality between the live action One Piece and live action Avatar shows on Netflix should be scientifically studied. Just based on the stuff shown in the Big Joel video I watched on Avatar's second season, that shit is a goddamn trainwreck.
stevens doing this right away in a gracious way is good and shows she understands that it's all one team, and everyone else in the establishment is also getting on board we are going to win this race in november
NEWS — Haley Stevens has endorsed Abdul El-Sayed in the Michigan U.S. Senate race against Republican Mike Rogers.
Unnaturally making craters should be illegal, and I want to everyone at SpaceX including Musk to be held responsible. I don't care if this was a test gone wrong, they assaulted the closest celestial body to us.
This is going to be a slow burn story that gets people more and more angry the more they hear about it. Some asshole billionaires are blowing holes in the Moon, a thing everyone loves.
"Pronouns used to be a funny joke, Hank. Until the government tried to tell me I couldn't use them anymore. So now I'm adamant about making sure trans people are gendered right. Not for their sake. But because I'll be damned if the US government is going to tell me what words I can and can't use."
Gonna be blunt, the reason I complain about AI so much is because it's made so much extra work for me, as I'm inundated with AI slopware games that I have to sort through and filter out, if this garbage tech ceased to exist tomorrow, it would be an immediate ease of that workload.
Guys like this don’t realize that they are the freak
Good to have you back, Coach. We missed you!

The narrativising of this is kind of maddening. OpenAI's model didn't "break free and hack HuggingFace." Meta's model didn't "break free and hack another company." Tech companies are blatantly doing illegal acts and saying their AI did it on it's own as a promotional stunt. That's it.
It keeps happening... It'd be great if these companies could spend a little bit more time on network security and a little less time vibe coding.

You really gotta marvel at how these guys don't realize how much LESS precise this shit makes them sound.
holy shit -- Schiff ties Trump's judicial nominees in knots by asking them who won the 2016 before *before* asking them who won in 2020, which results in them sounding like election deniers about Trump's victories!
some specific democrats suck and they suck in ways that are detrimental to issues that you personally care about you know how you solve that once we are past the primaries? you elect even more democrats so that their votes are less important joe manchin couldn’t have done as much damage as vote 52
correct are you serious about beating fascism or not? get in, we’re beating them in november you can be mad, you can be disappointed, but at the end of the day having someone with D in any and all seats is better than having someone with an R in them
I meant to post this last night but if you’re mad about any of the primary results you got 24 hours to bleed, try not to say anything you’ll regret in 48, and then it’s Blue No Matter Who.
The $30 million AIPAC wasted in Michigan, wasted trying to help Haley Stevens, could have been used to fully fund and deliver 6 million malaria nets to sub-Saharan Africa. Or, it could have fully paid for universal free school breakfasts in Mississippi, America's poorest state.
this is both infuriating and sad to watch having him on at this point is really just taking advantage of a man who can't string together a single coherent thought
BLITZER: Why is Israel, another country, your red line right now, rather than a domestic issue that impacts Americans' everyday lives? FETTERMAN: Yeah, absolutely. And I agree with a lot of Democrats too. I called trash Platner.
