I’m not racist if I say I hate Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. Religion is not a race, it’s fundamentally an assertion of an ontology based upon the primacy of the god of Abraham/Ibrahim, Yahweh/Jehovah.

The belief in the existence, omnipresence, and infallibility of such a being as described by their texts is a detriment to our species and may ultimately catastrophically destroy civilization.

One chooses to believe or continue believing this. One can’t choose their ethnicity. If I say I hate those religions, I’m saying I hate their ideas on how reality works, not where they’re from or what they look like.

LM studio or JanAI work very nicely for me as well.

What writings should I read to see examples of “built-in misogyny” (I’ve only read The Republic way back in undergrad)?

Start saying no. If you don’t know how, start learning. It’s hurting everyone up and down the industry.

I am almost purely focussed on creating DNNs (“deep neural networks” for the unaware) and it’s almost always a nightmare work-wise, even without all the rest of the other crap.

And they’re ashamed that he types up crap like what he posted.

Your opinions don’t constitute reality.

People like to remember him as being snti-slavery. He wasn’t. He was trying to work both sides, and it happened to benefit him to end slavery.

Lincoln frequently expressed his moral opposition to slavery in public and private. “I am naturally anti-slavery. If slavery is not wrong, nothing is wrong,” he stated. “I can not remember when I did not so think, and feel.”

This Wikipedia article has many direct quotes from him about his thoughts on the morality of slavery.

You’re lying about his positions to fit your complaint.

The right thing to do would be to allow Ukraine to use our best weapons, and strike deep within russia. But that doesn’t benefit America to end the war. Instead, it benefits America to drain russia for generations of all military, vehicles, equipment, and ability to recover. It benefits America to send a message to China to not fuck around.

While those are all ancillary benefits to NATO and their allies, a massive reason to not give Ukraine longer ranged weapons is to not catastrophically destabilize the country with the largest nuclear weapon stockpile on Earth. Furthermore, the United States has been giving Ukraine more “deep-strike” capable weapons systems very recently, since the Ukrainian invasion of the Kursk oblast.

There are plenty more reasons to withhold “carte blanche” access to more modern weapons platforms, but it’s irrelevant to what’s wrong with what you typed.

The way you frame things is what pisses me off about politics the most.

A few simple Google searches and some light reading prove your assertions as “examples” to your point wrong, but you spout drivel like this like it’s obvious. And then nuance, detail, understanding, veracity, etc. are further trampled by your obviously uneducated fan-fiction(s) because it makes you feel good to virtue-signal on the internet.

The purgation of xenos scum and heretic filth with extreme prejudice.

Or just plain “criticizes”.

Immo stultorum deus sum.

Especially after age 40 and a knee surgery… I’m tired boss! 😩

That’s actually a core tenant tenet of conservative ideology

It’s basically social Darwinism; it benefits him if people believe that rich and successful people are better and thereby should be rewarded with more power.

Rascist Racists are like that.

Hello, Dale! I see that you are a man of culture as well.

I’ve always wanted to say this!

Username checks out.

I wonder if Game Science meant avoid politics like “western identity politics” or “critique of the CCP”? Perhaps both?

Man cannot remake himself without suffering, for he is both the marble and the sculptor.

Kama-blah, as in, “blah, blah, blah,” perhaps?

This needs to be a role that’s compensated. No one should have these responsibilities and work for free.

Your are assailed by many threats: the religious, the nihilists, the corporatists, the fascists, and the alleged “collectivists”. Extreme authoritarian “leftists”, A.K.A. “tankies” (i.e., apologists for Lenin, Stalin, Mao, the CCP, the DPRK, Fidel Castro, Che Guevara, Xi Jingping, etc.), are threats to a free, egalitarian, and open society, are just as violently authoritarian as their religious, corporatist, and fascist competitors, and should be treated with the contempt, distrust, and ridicule they deserve.

They claim to speak and fight for the proletariat, promising a new utopia, never before seen, once their revolution executes the last “class-traitor”. In practice, once they’re finished with “seizing the means of production”, they’ll never relinquish control and become the new ruling class.

They’ll assume the mantle of an enlightened elite post-revolutionary administration to guide the proletariat to their promised utopia of “each according to their ability, to each according to their need”. In practice, "the party leadership needs the most, because they’re obviously the most able” in reorganizing the economic and political structure of society. The utopia of the “dictatorship of the proletariat” will never exist, only the dictatorship of the “revolutionary party”. Repression and execution await those who question their claims and decisions.

These supposed champions of labor are really harbingers of death - of the mind and the body. They claim to be the true authoritative “voice of the people”. Understand what they really are; power over everything and everyone, forever, is what they seek. They want you either as a true believer (a willing pawn) or dead, just like all of the other supposedly benevolent dictators who promised utopias throughout history.

They’re akin to the pigs in Orwell’s Animal Farm, the loudest voices in the revolution, usurpers of a righteous cause, but a bit “more equal” than everyone else after the farmer is done away with. Fortunately, the pigs, like the farmer, got their comeuppance in the end of the story. Make these pigs squeal.
