Cats, but also veganism.
- core to the belief system of every transphobe is confusion at the idea a man would choose to be a woman- being male is the BEST gender, you see, so no-one would willingly rid themselves of it without nefarious purposes
-
View full threadmay be true for one or two but I think the vast majority of male transphobes enjoy being male, and are afraid of the idea that the sexes are seperated by something as simple as hormone therapy- and the female transphobes are also very happy with patriarchy
- I've had a lot of experience with transphobes on 4chan and "incel envious of, and glorifying, cis lesbians" is the dominant form of GC in there.
- "LLMs aren't people, they don't actually possess knowledge, they just string words together in a way maximized to trick your human brain via pareidolia" stop, man. that'll never convince them. you need to equate it to something they know. "LLMs are basically demons from frieren" that's the ticket
- It's not convincing but for totally different reasons. It's because you never ever attempt to define knowledge/intelligence/etc. in any way that would allow verifying that: humans have it, but LLMs don't. Anime references obfuscate the untestability, so they're a more convincing lie.
- Strong disagree. If anything, most male transphobes are deeply envious of women and are doing "bucket of crabs" thing. GCs constantly equate being male with being dangerous, dirty, worse.
- Armenian genocide = genocide Cambodian genocide = genocide Holocaust = genocide Holodomor = genocide Rwanda = genocide Gaza = genocide

View full threadThe thing about liberals is they can't tell the difference between their left and their right. But actually they're closer to Fascism than anyone to their left. Now kindly fuck off.
- What you call "left" is "nazis but with swastika replaced by hammer+sickle". What I call "left" is democracy (also in workplace), equality, plurality, and personal freedom. It's trivial to tell apart my left and any right. Your "left" is identical to far-right.

- Covered by my post: you're just doing a stupid thing.
- the fact of the matter is most of human history was pre-truth. Humanity is perfectly capable of living without truth. So I don't think anyone should take a "Truth-based society", if it ever really was one, for granted. It's not something that happens naturally and is the result of constant effort.
- Good times happen when the powerful believe that "truth-basedness" and efficiency are strongly and positively correlated. Unfortunately, we're living in times when the powerful want to teach an AI how to be irrationally racist.
- Fish have a brain and nervous system, just like dogs, cows, and pigs. Why do so many think they can't experience pain and suffering? 🎨 LittleVeganArtist
- Simpler fish (ie. not most fish) don't learn from pain well, which was interpreted as pain not causing as much suffering to them as it causes to more complex animals. But almost all of the actually eaten fish feel pain like we do. So sometimes it's misinfo, but probably mostly ignorance (and cope).
- anyone think there's still some fuckass magic in this world
- AI is magic: nobody fully understands it yet, you can use words to make stuff happen, it mesmerizes rich buffoons, it infuriates irrational zealots, it can be used to create fantastic things (without fully learning the craft), it is never fully controlled, and it is everywhere (now).
- look even numbers are cold and odd numbers are warm, I dunno what to tell you
- Counterpoint: -273 is odd, but cold.
- noone will ever beat ocaml programmers at rationalizing bad decisions made by a programming language

- Python programmers understand that sometimes you need to break things between versions to undo something stupid from ancient past. I'd put them above Java designers, who keep updating features that were marked as "deprecated, don't use, ever" for literal decades.
