@AOC calling elon "intelligent" is a joke of the decade. AOC you would be the last person we need to lecture on intelligence. You seriously overestimate yourself. Please never speak again and make a joke of yourself.
Islam’s continuing success can be attributed to its shrewd use of resources and personnel.
Killing the kuffar is only one tactic among many, and today other methods are generally more effective.
Except for terrorist acts and outright warfare, all of the radical Islamic offensives may be classified as probes.
They are not designed to attain outright victory. The goal is not to achieve their purported aims.
If they manage to confuse the infidel, demoralize him, cause him great expense, disrupt his everyday life, or make him live in fear, then they have succeeded. If non-believers happen to be killed or wounded as well, that’s just an added bonus.
A probe tests the limits of what can be done to non-Muslims without provoking a violent or damaging response.
Constant probing occurs at a relatively low level and wears out the resistance of non-Muslims.
The civil authorities in Western countries repeatedly give in to probes and allow incremental degrees of Islamisation in the vain hope of stopping the steady drip-drip-drip of Islamic agitation.
But the probes don’t stop; if Islam achieves marginal success in a probing action, then the pressure is increased at that point and new probes are launched.
A successful push to permit the hijab in a courtroom is followed by a demand for the burqa. If an employer gives in and sets aside a prayer room, then ablution foot baths are demanded.
Each probe pushes the boundaries of the Ummah a tiny bit further outwards. These are not physical boundaries but legal, social, and cultural boundaries.
Every small success makes the host country resemble Islam just a little bit more and helps prepare the colonized victims by making them accustomed to the nature of the Islamic state.
Here’s a partial list of everyday probing activities.
Legal and Judicial
Demands to allow sharia law in civil cases.
The insistence that police must follow Islamic practices (veils for the female cops, booties for the dogs) when carrying out their duties on Muslim turf.
Outcries against “profiling” when Muslims are arrested.
Charges of “discrimination” when offenders are convicted or sentenced.
The insistence that all public institutions, including prisons, must meet Muslim standards for diet, religious observance, and other specific Islamic characteristics in their environment.
Territorial
The establishment of Muslim-only neighbourhoods, from which non-Muslims may be excluded and in which they must obey Islamic rules.
The insistence that any area in which Muslims have prayed becomes sacred Muslim territory and may not revert to previous use.
The establishment of buildings specifically designed as mosques.
They demand that minarets be allowed on mosques to mark the surrounding area as Muslim.
An insistence that the call to prayer from loudspeakers be allowed at mosques.
Educational
Demands that an Islamic curriculum be used for Muslim students.
An attempt to veto any elements of teaching (the actual history of Islam, accounts of the Holocaust) that are problematic for Muslims.
Moves to allow veils in the classroom.
A push to segregate the sexes in certain activities.
A demand that school schedules be adjusted to allow Muslim students to pray, and to accommodate Islamic holidays.
The insistence that all food served in the school dining facilities be halal.
Social
A requirement that public activities in which more than a certain percentage of Muslims participate be in accord with Islamic practices — veiling, prayers, segregation of the sexes, halal food, etc.
Demands that public space accommodates Muslim religious prohibitions, such as those against dogs or pigs — or even the depiction of dogs or pigs — or alcohol, or certain kinds of images and symbols such as crosses, etc.
The insistence that public or private employees be allowed to refuse to engage in certain activities, such as handling alcohol or pork or (for women) shaking hands with men.
A policy that any public space used for Islamic activities — such as a non-denominational chapel at a university — must not display the symbols or offer the literature of any other religion at any time.
Cultural
An insistence that non-Muslims display the same respect and reverence for Mohammed, the Koran, and Islamic symbols as do Muslims themselves.
An assertion that “insults” to the Islamic religion are not protected by free speech laws, and in fact violate Muslims’ freedom of religion.
Demands for legal redress when public entertainment or the private behavior of individuals offends Muslim religious sensibilities.
A push to modify the legal code so that respect for Islam is mandated by law.
Pressure on television and radio stations, newspapers, book publishers, art galleries, and so on to show “balance” by presenting more Muslim content and prohibiting content that violates Islamic standards.
When one of the above probes finds a soft point where resistance is weak, then pressure is stepped up, and the “spontaneous” violence of the Muslim street may appear to help the infidels make the right decisions.
If the probe continues to bear fruit, the situation may escalate to carefully modulated riots, arson, vandalism, and assaults.
When the kuffar authorities finally yield — and allow the construction of a mosque, or fund a Muslim community center, or permit the burqa on public transport — then the entire playbook that generated the successful probe is replicated and used on another front.
This process is repeated over and over again, day after day, in hundreds of cities and towns across the West.
Resistance is eventually worn down, and demands acceded to. Not many of them, and not often, but once a demand has been granted, there is no return to the status quo ante.
The Islamic ratchet works in one direction only.
Whether it is a military operation, a legal initiative, or a cultural program, once the probe succeeds, there is no reversing it.
This is how the Dar al-Islam expands, and Dar al-Harb dwindles.
When Islam could not hope to match the infidels militarily, it focused on terrorism.
When that proved counterproductive, it tried different tactics. Probes are a continuation of terrorism by other means.
The military might of the United States and the other Western powers is useless in the face of these tactics.
All of the immense gains enjoyed by Islam during the last decades continued unabated while coalition forces chased “terrorists” in Tora Bora or defused IEDs in Anbar Province.
For all of West's successes on these fronts, they ceded massive amounts of territory to them on all the other fronts, without even realising that there was a battle or that West was losing it.
@elonmusk is doing the God's work. He is saving the lives of the most vulnerable and innocent of us, the children. He is fighting the worst scum on the planet, literal monsters, uncivilized barbaric pedo death cult of rape gangs. Thanks, elon. You are a true hero.
For anyone doubting the severity and depravity of the mass gang rapes of little girls in Britain, go to the source material and read the court transcripts. I did.
It is worse than you could possibly imagine.
@cognition_labs devin is a scam. This is Theranos of the AI field. They raised hundreds of millions of dollars under the disguise of being the first AI engineer, but in reality Devin is no better than 20$ @ChatGPTapp .
@Airtel_Presence I just noticed you closed the ticket I raised without resolving it. THIS IS SECOND TICKET I RAISED IN 3 WEEKS WITHOUT INTERNET. Do you plan to resolve the issue or else refund the amount I paid for Airtel black immediately. Pathetic customer service
@Airtel_Presence What kind of service is this? I have been trying to get the issue resolved for 2 weeks and it's impossible given your irresponsible behaviour towards your customers
@Airtel_Presence You assign a technician to me, I call them and they tell me they are not going to come to fix the issue. Then it's assigned to another guy, he says he can't come. Later they stop picking calls. .
@Airtel_Presence I'm still waiting for your action. Why do you need weeks to fix an internet issue? Do you treat all your customers this way?I called your technician a hundred times over the week, but they won't respond. Really disappointed with your service @airtelindia@Airtel_Presence
@elonmusk Can someone explain why this suicidal empathy is being displayed by the UK government? Who are they trying to please? Who's running the show? What do they gain from this?
@airtelindia Your agents made me pay the full amount 3 months advance for the Airtel broadband in Bangalore and had called me throughout the day yesterday until I made the payment. Now after making the payment they disappeared and wouldn't respond. Very poor customer service.
He is going to realise he is utterly wrong soo. Even @Meta is betting on LLMs, while Yann continues his rant. My guess is finally he will pivot and claim the credit when AGI is achieved through LLM architecture in next 5 years
@UsingLyft We cannot accept any fact that shows a particular race to be inferior at something. For example blacks have superior physical capabilities and white people have better mental capabilities. Only when the world learns to accept facts, steps can be taken to find solutions.
People are different. Everyone has their own world view but we expect them to look through our lens. Most people are dumb as below cartoon illustrates. By the time they realise they are wrong the boat sinks.
What exactly is #hamas trying to prove with these forced farewell videos of victims? You guys tortured, raped, burned women and babies. You are the worst scum among all the creation on this planet. These forced videos of victims changes nothing and hamas has to wiped out.
If I was a hostage at the hands of #HamasISIS I would do anything they asked me to save my life. Even if they asked me to propose to them publicly, I would do that.
It's mind-blowing that we still have to explain this basic survival instinct to some idiots
Ultimately value of an item is derived from how easily you can get it. If it's too easy it's of low value. If it's hard and time consuming it's of high value. If gold is found everywhere abundantly, the value will drop immediately tomorrow.
An AI creating marvelous art pieces as we describe is a new problem to the humanity we never faced. We are taught to value hardwork. We value things that are hard to be made.
It's surprising that @OpenAI talks about diversity and inclusion but wouldn't even consider having a non-human entity like chatGPT or @grok on the board! Who is more qualified than an AI/AGI board member on a AI company board!! Food for thought @sama@elonmusk@ilyasut
One of the biggest tasks ahead for OpenAI is building a new board - one that includes women:
The names of several women were floated including @laurenepowell and @marissamayer but deemed too close to @sama. @CondoleezzaRice also considered but dismissed.
We’re told the new board *will* include women but that’s just step one — roundup by @tsgiles@shiringhaffary@ashleevance
