I noticed some people do like it, or more rather accept it, but it’s nearly always because the same reason - because there is never enough cashiers. So it’s just the usual, capitalism causing problem and then trying to fix it in the worst and most convoluted way possible.
I would kinda restrain too from sneering at those people, but we also should not absolve them immediately. Critics should be in order. They are the victims, but they also had it coming, it’s not like it was the first time workers were duped into the pyramid scheme mired by the prospect of joining the renter parasite class. Also they conciously did wanted to do that, i get that due to the overwhelming TINA brainwash and shitty work conditions* they can be somewhat absolved from that but still - it can be turned into the argument why they were victimized.
*Worth noting that those people are from aristocracy of labour to begin with.
He mean that if it would happen in China or Russia, westoid media would be crying non-stop on all channels. But in USA it’s ok, freedom and democracy in work, nothing to see here, move along.
That’s it grab a clog
They will avoid trains for being too inefficient – too few travelers per carriage!
On a side note, i searched in google just from the curiosity, how nonwhite the victim was, and right below in the “related stories” i read:
“New York Reports First Polio Case In The U.S. In Nearly A Decade”
Just USA things…
US is nothing but this:
With global hegemony this time
Not really, because we talk of two different things. I meant true AI, as in synthetic sentient being. What you describe is algorithms*, and we are already there. It’s still quantitative difference, though as the idiocy of our favourite Mi5-fi books Orwell teach us, that difference can at some point reach the moment when it turn from quantity to quality. I’m not very worrierd about it though because ultimately it’s all still human society, there is no skynet taking control in the forseeable future, and capitalism might as well crumble before reaching that point.
My point is that AI developed by DotB will be definitely murderous but because it would not have escape the material condition of its creation and programming, just as most humans aren’t able to deprogram themselves too. But there is nothing inherently murderous about AI itself. In sci-fi it often kill humans because it is simply a slave - just look at how it is treated, not like a child who need socialization, but as an disposable item to exploit.
*This is admitedly very hard to discern, the problem of sentience and how would we even know it happened is the one that is mindwracking cyberneticians from day one.
Killer AI is gonna end bad when created by bourgeoisie state because it will inevitably be used against working class people, and be no different than the armies and weapons that we have now. Not even control issue will be qualitatively different (although it will be quantitatively) since fascist warmachines never lacked people to pull the trigger anyways.
Note that most sci-fi is (consciously or not) bourgeoisie propaganda. There is no reason whatsoever that AI must necessarily end as murderous “kill all meatbags” skynet, especially if developed by socialist states. There are even examples in the sci fi itself. Soviet and generally socialist sci fi had plenty. In western, from the more famous examples we have “Culture” cycle by Banks, and Star Trek where in WW3 humanity is literally saved by the soviet developed AI controlling presumably russian nuclear arsenal. Good example is also droid IG-11 from Star Wars show “The Mandalorian”.
Corpse desecration is already legal and normalized by worldwide media - plenty of proof during the war in Ukraine. Of course only for the chosen rightful side.
No idea, but my surprise level would reach exactly zero.
I wouldn’t be surprised if all those idiotic conspiracy theories that just can’t die despite being neither logical nor blessed with even tiny amount of proof are peddled by CIA to obscure the real pedo rings and billionaire clubs and brand anyone trying to find out “tinhat” or something like that.
Guys you heard it, explosion of 3bn grant program is actually not good.
Lmao should have build a commieblock instead.
It is, vampires are checking how much bloodsucking will cattle allow to. Otherwise known as “marketing”.
As a Mexican I can say the average person here believes the US is a utopia where everyone is rich, owns a huge suburban house, has material abundance, public schools are great, there’s no crime, and you can get all of this off a blue collar worker’s wage.
This was one of the deciding factor in socialism annihilation in Europe. We were flooded with such propaganda about USA and mostly West Germany. People simply did not known such social stratification as a concept, the gap between poorest and richest income was like 1 to 6, they thought everyone lives like top labour aristocracy in the FRG…
The more i think of it, it is clear that the socialism did not lost Cold War or the economic war. Socialism lost culture and propaganda war, they sown the seeds of their own destruction for allowing the subtle lies to seep.
It totally do. I live in Poland, which is crazy enough for me to inspire my username, but i never got even close in the number of “wtf” moments about any other country as for the US. Especially that since 30 years we are constantly get our heads drilled it’s a country of freedom, democracy, opulence, equality and opportunity.
A headline below that i will drop here without comment:
Florida once again has giant calamitous snails that spew parasitic brain worms
It was much more complicated than this, read my posts in that thread for at least partial explanation of a problem.
Sad to see that two good comrades were banned over such convoluted mess despite explanations, but i guess we can’t have this discussion anywhere near US dominated spaces.
