Countries need to sit down and figure out how to make it work because as it stands, jobs have turned into a form of slavery by design.

Yeah, they already did that, and “slavery by design” is what they came up with.

The next time, we don’t consult our country, we force them to do what WE want.

When they come up with it on their own, and push it relentlessly despite obvious and enormous resistance from the citizens, you know they been paid off handsomely.

Disney, Iran, GW Bush, etc. Somehow MAGA manages to consistently be worse than the worst people on Earth.

When they suspended Kimmel, I sent them a ferocious email, and one of the things I said was that the FCC license that they are so concerned about also carries with it the responsibility to serve the American people and the First Amendment with integrity. Defending our Freedom of Speech is literally the most important responsibility they have, and I expected them to hold the line to the bitter end.

It seems like they agree. So far.

He’s already on The List.

Well, there you go, free lunch for every schoolkid. Silver lining.

The first DOGE team that attempted the first government agency should have been gunned down in the lobby. That was security’s job, and they failed miserably. If they had done their job in the first place, America would be in a much different position now.

At least he feels bad about it.

I can’t believe they got screwed by Biden AGAIN!

That’s okay, vote for him again. He’s going to give you everything you’re owed in his third term.

A person can already LOOK anywhere they want, and almost every inch of ground is covered by surveillance cameras that are recording your every move.

This just combines two things that are already happening. When it gets to court, I doubt a judge is going to care much.

It looks like a refrigerator on wheels, and I’ll bet the ice maker doesn’t work.

Add a handful of zeroes.

There is no Free Market, that’s just a myth they tell us to allow them to do whatever they want. They don’t really want a true Free Market because it leads to Luigis.

The only problem with his prediction is that as the 10% of human work increases, most of the increased work will also be done by AI, so all humans are doing is getting all the work breaking rocks, as AI handles any interesting stuff that pops up.

Well, that’s a relief. I’d rather have AI making decisions than this putz, and I hate AI.

No it won’t.

Valid. Media Manipulation is the name of the game right now, but that’s so inefficient. You throw out a bunch of propaganda, and hope something gets traction.

Soon, Data Manipulation will be more important. They’ll start tracking all your date points, and soon they’ll find something they can manipulate you over. They’ll find some obscure crime to leverage you with, like a wrong statement on a Federal form interpreted as a deliberate lie, rather than a confused wrong answer. Or they’ll identify patterns, and create laws to make those patterns a crime, and get you on that.

They’ll threaten your family, job, your healthcare, your money, your home, your freedom, and they’ll eventually get you to dance to their tune.

The only math class I ever enjoyed was a college statistics class which actually made sense to me. So I spent my life reading polls, always checking the sample size and the margin of error, because I knew how important those are to accuracy, etc. But that same knowledge also served to let me know that modern polls are becoming horsehit.

I remember hearing Rush Limbaugh telling his listeners to either refuse to take polls, or to lie on them and say the opposite. He, and others, taught MAGAs to disrespect polls (cuz polls are the enemy of predatory politics).

Also, many of the “pollsters” are MAGA operatives in disguise. Add unreliable pollsters to unreliable respondents, and you end up with a weird poll that doesn’t reflect reality at all.

I no longer enjoy tracking polls. Too many of them have been games.

I inherited my grandfather’s robber baron fortune, I’m a GENIUS!
