Kids are learning AI art in college. It’s no different than when kids started learning photography in college and actual artists opposed it.

It's different because a camera didn't need to generate enough carbon to burn down an acre of rainforest to take a single picture, nor did it have to harvest the stolen artwork of millions of artists to generate a picture.

But, sure, "prompt engineering" is a creative process and can be artistic.

The moment some gun owner decides to defend their neighbors from being kidnapped and sent to a concentration camp, Republicans will be in favor of gun control.

Sure, the working class is huge. There's all kinds of people.

Still not the norm. Normal workers do not know or care who Soros is, what Davos is, or who the email recipient's husband is.

Pastoral, hunting, and fishing communities do not respect cultured meat. They hate the idea of being separated from the land and their animals like that.

Vegans can be connected with the land. I can grow nuts and legumes and grain, I can't really culture my own flesh. I can share the same connection with the land as my community without hurting animals, but an alchemist with their homunculus burger will face a much greater obstacle to acceptance.

I am highly skeptical that there's any significant cultural buy-in for cultured meat.

I wonder how Trump will actually respond to this. He can't just "make a deal" so will he become belligeren/vengeful towards Russia for humiliating him or will he lose interest entirely?

I expect him to lose interest, he doesn't care about geopolitics, but predicting Trump is a fool's game lol

Conspiracy theorists are generally small business owners or retirees living off investments; people with lots of leisure time to drive themselves nuts. The working class usually doesn't have time to go down these conspiracy rabbit holes (it happens, but it's not the norm)

That's literally multiple people conspiring in secret to achieve an illegal goal.

And it's just not necessary.

We're more alienated and isolated than pretty much any time in history, they really could just tell their base "go arrest your neighbor for woke and await further orders" and they would do it. There's just no need for a conspiracy to manufacture riots, their loyalists will happily kill their neighbors. They can just do this whenever they want.

The cruelty is certainly the point, though, and that contradicts your own conspiracy theory. They aren't trying to manufacture riots per se, they just want to make people suffer. Even if there are no riots they get what they want.

manufactured riots come hell or high water. “marshall” law by mid-terms, mark my word.

This conspiracy never makes sense to me.

If they want martial law they can just do it. Just lie and say there are riots, boom. There's no need to manufacture actual riots.

The rich will throw away their perfectly fine boots after a few years because they aren't in style anymore.

He didn't even get a majority. He got a plurality. 49.9%
