@S_Coughlin_DC@linuxhippie I tuned out once it was obvious he decided to be a wizard. I can't see him as anything other than an operator and some of those operations appear at least to be destructive to America/Americans
Here is where the money you pay Anthropic is going. Hope you agree!!
via Politico:
“ANTHROPIC’S ANTI-AI BLITZ: The political war over AI is spilling deeper into the midterms — with one of the industry’s biggest players spending millions to warn voters about the technology it helped create. Anthropic-backed Public First Action has launched a new $2.5 million broadcast buy boosting GOP Sen. Ashley Moody across Florida, its first big general-election push, Will reports. The new ad, funded by an AI company, opens with an ominous warning: “Artificial intelligence is transforming our lives. And it’s moving faster than anyone can control. Coming for our jobs,” before invoking cloned voices, stolen faces and warnings from AI’s own creators — then praising Moody for backing legislation targeting deepfakes. Watch the ad
It’s the latest ad in Anthropic’s broader political strategy, spending millions to push for tougher AI regulations and counter rival political groups backed by OpenAI leaders and investors that favor a lighter regulatory approach.”
@OnlyFormHolds@AuntyMatter@Gafster290 I would like to suggest you reflect upon all you have said here in your O.P., the responses to replys, and recognize that your internal dialogue does indeed have a directional bias that is quite unlike an Aquinas.
If your institutions of teaching and learning (and of professional training and credentialing) are in any way subverting and negating the constitutive grammar of American Constitutional Republican governance - they are illegitimate - period! Purposed to destroy the Republic from within. That which educates the citizens and trains them for public service and public office is either operationally in accord with the nation’s system of governance - or - it is functioning as hostile operations to destroy the nation’s system of governance.
@nonesuchky That is an excerpt from the excellent article by author of ‘American Betrayal’ and ‘Death of the Grown-Up’ Diana West @realDianaWest and the full article can be read here:

The ‘Roman Church,” the only Church that Christ also said will not fail, the only Church founded by Jesus Christ homself? It's the Church with a sensus fidelium, a sense of the faithful that will not fail.
Only John did not die a violent death. For those that died violently, while being dispatched, things looked a lot more grim than it does today.
Those that took control at V2 didn't have complete control of the faithful then, and the flailing movements of the leadership today speak to the fact that they know they're losing the bubble now. And they know it.
In the first elections that brought Hitler to power, he lost in every Catholic state. Among the most targeted groups for early ‘30s internment was Catholic priests and Bishops. (BTW - The Generals Revolt against Hitler was likewise mainly Catholc generals). So, when Ratzinger left the Hitler Youth and joined the seminary, those seminaries were completely purged. The first reaction is to think that those seminaries were Nazified, and that's for another day. In fact, all that was necessary was to ensure those seminaries were esoterized along Hagel’s trinity as the state churches already were. That set the gludepath. Hence, both Hegel and Nietzsche were formed in Pietist Lutheran Seminaries already known to have seen esoteric along hermetic lines. It's the church that believes that the state is Gods expression on earth and so, like God, citizens owe complete obedience to the state. It's also where God is dead arises from. (Am I the only one tired of the Obiwan wave that this isn't the droid to look for?)
Flush whatever you think you know about the “Christian” nature of seminaries out of Tubingen, and then re-examine them over time as if covert Hermeticusm informed them. Then, go to Ratzinger’s 1968 book “Introduction to Christianity” and FORCE yourself to interpret it ‘as if’ it was hermetically informed, learn what you have to to understand it that way, and don't permit yourself an out (there will always be a binary escape that the uninitiated will desparaty want to hold on to), and take note ‘as if’ it was an homage to Hegel, that Ratzinger made a point of hailing out of Tubingen when he wrote it.
@WilliamWFREEDOM@unseen1_unseen@N047201 Willful ignorance on what running an actual business is like? Not every operation is chuck in a truck. Arguably the trades is one of the least mature in running a business and why there's such a high failure rate.
The Chinese will never hold (have never held!) themselves to any agreement on this or any other technological issue.
They will, as good Communists, sign it, say all the right things, and then go right back to doing whatever they think advances the revolution.
A proper interviewer would have crushed him and ended the interview.
In a proper country, now that everyone knows what this ghoul actually thinks, he would be fleeing for his life.
Proposed new rule:
You can post hate speech, racist commentary, pro and anti religious fanaticism as well as gender fluid derision.
But you cannot do it from an anonymous account.
The market will then take care of everything from there...
I woke up and as I had my morning coffee, I realized that everything is about to change. No matter how I vote, no matter what I say, something evil has invaded our nation, and our lives are never going to be the same.
I have been confused by the hostility of family and friends. I look at people I have known all my life--so hate-filled that they agree with opinions they would never express as their own. I think that I may well have entered the Twilight Zone.
You can't justify this insanity. We have become a nation that has lost its collective mind!
• If a man pretends to be a woman, you are required to pretend with him.
• Somehow it’s un-American for the census to count how many Americans are in America.
• Russians influencing our elections are bad, but illegals voting in our elections are good.
• It was cool for Joe Biden to "blackmail" the President of Ukraine, but it’s an impeachable offense if Donald Trump inquires about it.
• People who have never owned slaves should pay slavery reparations to people who have never been slaves.
• People who have never been to college should pay the debts of college students who took out huge loans for their degrees.
• Immigrants with tuberculosis and polio are welcome, but you’d better be able to prove your dog is vaccinated.
• Irish doctors and German engineers who want to immigrate to the US must go through a rigorous vetting process, but any illiterate gang-bangers who jump the southern fence are welcome.
• $5 billion for border security is too expensive, but $1.5 trillion for “free” health care is not.
• If you cheat to get into college you go to prison, but if you cheat to get into the country you go to college for free.
• People who say there is no such thing as gender are demanding a female President.
• We see other countries going Socialist and collapsing, but it seems like a great plan to us.
• Some people are held responsible for things that happened before they were born, and other people are not held responsible for what they are doing right now.
• Criminals are caught-and-released to hurt more people, but stopping them is bad because it's a violation of THEIR rights.
• And pointing out all this hypocrisy somehow makes us "racists"?!
Nothing makes sense anymore, no values, no morals, no civility and people are dying of a Chinese virus, but it racist to refer to it as Chinese even though it began in China.
We are clearly living in an upside down world where right is wrong and wrong is right, where moral is immoral and immoral is moral, where good is evil and evil is good, where killing murderers is wrong, but killing innocent babies is right.
Wake up America, the great unsinkable ship Titanic America has hit an iceberg, is taking on water, and is sinking fast. The choice is yours to make. What will it be? Time is short, make your choice wisely!
Feel free to copy and paste. I did.
Time for our government to wake up you either work with and for America or get the hell out .. we're tired of paying taxes and you incredibly selfish people don't give a damn for the people you work for... you should all be ashamed of yourself !!!!
It's not the first time and the continued use of the term "suicidal empathy" masks what it really is--Hostile Gov't subjugating their own populations.
The leaders of the Nations of Europe and most of them here in the West know perfectly well what they are doing and why.
Inventing new terms to sell books and reify something that is made up is how we got here.
Dialectical Negation. This isn't hard. A Final Cause analysis cuts through all this jargon.
"A thing comes first in order of INTENTION, but Last (Final) in the order of execution." Hence, of all the causes, the Final Cause (for the sake of which) comes first.
They knew what they wanted to do before they did it. Suicidal Empathy gives them cover for their malevolence. People like Gaad are exactly who Willi targeted, and he was successful beyond his wildest dreams.
@CourtenayTurner@BiggerTruth For sure. America has to win that fight though. Or we might be Mad Max. Pretty certain there's a report put out years ago with that exact thing designed for America with the transfer of power from West to East
@CourtenayTurner@BiggerTruth Their evil bastards rule over us, or ours. I know that's a terrible way to frame. Unfortunately their may not be another outcome. Live to fight another day?
Idk man, I see the probabilities of civil war just shooting up, which is why I am entertaining it. I see the strong case, the long lines of evidence that point to it. Which would mean markets pump here with oil and yields going up. Ya are starting to see Semi trade come to life and it was the risk that I saw coming over the weekend, after I myself had gotten super bearish. I can see a month of just pure risk on, a super hot market being driven by oil and yields with AI sentiment bottoming and turning to get super exuberant again. This market is dangerous man, it is going to test the conviction of bulls and bears, PnLs will swing and my main concern ultimately is that most will fail to actualize on those returns, from the bulls and bears side. You either stay on the sidelines and just stay strong, regardless of what people say, or you tactically play AI and the Oil long. You can be dogmatic with the AI longs but will you actualize it? Semi bulls just went thru an intense drawdown and held, if we rally hard from here, they will feel like soldiers of war who can survive anything. But the roundtrip of what comes when this war hits peak climax is going to make this little drawdown that we just saw, look like a tiny blip. Dudes roundtrip right now and still had big returns left, the next round trip coming in a few months is going to completely obliterate them. You’re not managing capital but psychology, and that’s where I always come from with my analysis. PnLs are really irrelevant, DID YOU ACTUALIZE? WILL YOU ACTUALIZE? Nobody really talks about this part of the game really and it is why I am obsessed with it, obsessed behind the psychology needed to know when to actualize. I’m no longer in full conviction mode, I’m in full assessing the different probabilistic risks mode now. All about maintaining optionality because all I see is chaos to the up and downside coming.
I think you do try to analyze things. At least that is what I derive from reading your posts. I also think I've seen you admit to some confusion at times. Meaning you are likely receptive to additional information to think about that perhaps will help you in furthering growth and development in what is philosophically speaking "leftism". That report I posted on, in both written and audio form is dense. I probably should have also mentioned the book in my PfP. 52 pages. Incredible book. Me saying you are wrong is not meant as an attack. Was meant to grab your attention. Thank you for your response. I just don't do long form X posts.
