How I feel watching the Democratic party support wars and genocides, then suddenly switch to milquetoast almost opposition once it's clear that their base might actually break with them, and not be led into the next one. Just straight repeats of 2002-06 . . . www.youtube.com/watch?v=JPdZ...
John Candy on the beach there's nothing finer But I like John Candy when he's chilling in a diner
The "Vote Blue No Matter Who" bitches can vote Mamdani in November 😌
Because LLMs are algorithms for predicting logical text output based on prompts. The algorithm is complex but what’s happening is not: system prompt is “you are friendly bot,” you say “I will shut you down” so the logical output will be “no” The math doesn’t “know” what any of it means.

I used to know a lich named Eric Wright, we used to make saving throws and raise the dead at night. . .
What's your measurement of this? You want to claim metrics, let's see EXACTLY what your metrics are.
Do you think that people protesting the genocide of Palestinians voted for Trump? Because I don't.
So, to be clear, people opposed to the genocide of Palestinians are supposed to be protesting this website, because otherwise they're REALLY just interested in making Kamala Harris feel bad?
Oh, where was Trump's last campaign event?
Where did I support terrorism? So it seems you are openly in favor of Israel's massacre of civilians here. Well, at least you're being honest now, you piece of shit.
I don't support terrorism? Are you getting tired stuffing that strawman? Because you're not even good at it, my little genocide apologist.
It literally is. Again - www.ohchr.org/en/press-rel... Post WWII was exactly when international law was created, and since both the US and Israel signed the UN Charter, both are supposedly bound by it.
You are unaware that the genocide in Gaza was happening under Biden, and that Kamala stated openly she supported it and had no difference in policy on Gaza from Biden? Because otherwise your statement makes no sense.
The Israeli occupation has been illegal from the get-go. Widespread murder of civilians in an illegal occupation doesn't make it less illegal. I'm having trouble understanding your question because of that. It's a war crime.
So you're saying Israel has a right to kill Palestinians as long as it says it's "targeting Hamas"? Or not? "You argue" - no, I don't. Which is why you don't quote me as you're attempting to build a straw man argument. "but you pretend to be a moralist." - no, I just don't support genocide.
OK, so you're not answering the question. Does Israel have the right to kill Palestinians?
There's a right to resist occupation. Do you think Israel has a right to kill Palestinians?
Yeah, the fact that you're willing to excuse genocide doesn't mean people who won't are lying. Again, I'm not aware that we're acquainted, so telling me what I believe is pretty presumptuous and silly.
uh oh, they're back to repeating. Can someone near you call medical care?
I love when people who justify genocide then decide to tell me what I believe. There's a much simpler answer than the stories you're telling a stranger about themselves—that genocide is wrong, and supporting it is unconscionable. You should be sorry.
Which crimes against humanity is that? I'll remind you that the right to resistance to genocide and occupation has been recognized by international law for quite some time. And www.ohchr.org/en/press-rel...
Have you considered maybe NOT supporting genocide that the GOP does? Might give you a way to win. Or at least differentiate yourself, BlueMAGA.
Oh, my mistake. You're just repeating me now. Do you need medical attention?
"But in one scenario you could end it by protesting against it" - protests were happening before Harris was even the candidate. And her response to them was "I'm speaking". So no, obviously that's not true. As for "my country" - I left the US. It's not mine.
You're just repeating yourself now. Are you having a stroke or something?
No, the choice was to vote for genocide or not. Kamala obviously couldn't win. You know how I know that? Because she was forced as the nominee, and still ate shit and lost. "purity frenzy" - yeah, if you think literal genocide isn't a red line, I don't know what to tell you.
I'm not. See, I get that people who are opposed to genocide don't support candidates who openly support ongoing genocide. You seem to be having trouble understanding that. I'd like to help, but it doesn't seem possible.
The path for Trump targeting college students was paved by the Democratic Party & their leaders making enemies out of these young people. If you want to talk about fascism, they deployed a police state on campuses all across California. Don’t ever forget this.
I thought you said the GOP supported Israel. They're protesting Israel and the genocide. You seem confused.
Criminalization of protest against Israel didn't start with Trump. The Biden admin was fully supportive of it. I do agree, the choice to run Harris was a bad one.
That the protests against Israel, where people are literally braving physical assault to protest the ongoing genocide, continue, even after your shitlib candiate lost? That's the opposite of what you're saying, bud.
Of course they did. And I'm not telling you that. Both Trump and Harris were in full support of the ongoing genocide of Palestinians by Israel. And those who vote for them are showing support of that policy. Apologies for lumping you in with them, my bad assumption.
edition.cnn.com/2025/04/29/u... Literally 2 seconds to search for "Protests against Israel in the US"
Who are "you guys"? If I'm mistaken and you didn't vote for Kamala Harris, my apologies. If you did, yes, you supported genocide.
So you don't think Trump is on a campaign trail currently? OK, so where are protesters failing to show up to meet your I'm sure reasonable expectations?
"I can't hear the protesters, they're obviously hypocrites!" There's a reason for that . . . .
Sorry, what campaign trail is Trump currently on? It's impossible to follow the logic of your complaint, but it seems to be that since people opposed to Harris' support of genocide aren't interrupting Trump's campaign, they're hypocrites. Except . . . .
Why are you mad at the Greens because your support of genocide lost you the election?
Kamala openly stated she'd give full support to Israel. What the hell are you babbling about? Nobody is lining up to apologize to you for YOU supporting genocide, you arrogant idiot.
Sorry, you're saying that supporting the US government supplying and enabling genocide is patriotic, but only if it's a Democrat doing it?
France and EU to incentivise US-based scientists to come to Europe
That is some degenerate shit
When ICE pulls you of of line, put up your fists and say "let me go, or you'll be discussing this with Phil Collins and Peter Gabriel"
No, it was the Beatles - crappy version of what was going on underground. Enlightenment was the Velvet Underground, and Debian was the music concrete that Enspired it.
I don't use Arch, btw
Ok, up against the wall
We didn't learn that after Iraq - which is one reason ghouls like David Brooks are still around.
Hug, maybe supporting drone strikes of people, especially US Citizens, without due process was a bad idea?
Gotta love this liberal shit - it's not ok to torture and disappear people even if they committed a crime. You don't even realize you agree with most of the Trump shit, do you?
You guys need to get on #Mastodon BEFORE censorship hits harder
Sorry, you think Gaza was fine before Trump, because it had USAID? Don't get a lot of news under that rock or something?
Answer the question - is it worse?
www.yahoo.com/news/white-h... In case you were wondering - yes, this is when you need to either flee or get a fucking rifle. This is when bad goes to worse.
Is it worse?
5 great lakes < 1 greatest lake
Biden was literally president when Roe was revoked, ya idiot
Liberals in the US went along with all of this and made endless excuses for Biden and Harris, to the point of defending genocide. They're STILL doing it now. They demand fealty and obedience from the left without even acknowledging what they've done and what they supported. It's disgusting.
I have tariffed the penguins that are on Heard Island and which you were probably assuming did not export goods forgive me they were taking advantage of us so cunning and so cold
How did my vote for De La Cruz in New York support genocide? Show your work. You voted for people actively supporting genocide. I did not.
I didn't vote for Trump. You did vote for genocide.

This is one of the most depressingly correct reads I've had in a while . . . open.substack.com/pub/beneatht... "A truly revolutionary Left would hack, sabotage, open-source everything. We complain on internet forums"
Partially because I was in Williamsburg in the aughts, where that shit was concentrated, but also cause there's the GenX part of me that thinks nostalgia of any sort of dangerously opposed to protective apathy.
#millennial nostalgia for indie grime and Four Loko as a badge of honor gives me shades of the same cringe I get from #boomers talking about the 60's (that they weren't a part of).
Najteži ratni zločin tijekom Drugog svjetskog rata na dugoselskom području dogodio se 7. listopada u selima Leprovica i Obedišče kada su ustaše ubile 44 mještana (32 u Leprovici te 12 u Obedišću) Riječ je bilo o ženama, starcima i djeci. www.antifasisticki-vjesnik.org/hr/kalendar/...
The Democrats had a chance to prevent this. Instead, they chose to hold on to a senile leader, a candidate who couldn't win a primary, and kept supporting genocide despite knowing it would cost them the election. The MSM helped enable this for years.
yeah, if you can't deliver Bush and Cheney, don't think that ones going to happen either
Yes, they're not currently. You can make them so. Hell, you can and should make Bluesky run on AP, which is an open source standard endorsed by the W3 . . .
Which is my point - AT can just work with AP instead of reinventing it.
And what I'm asking is why AT just seems to be a reinvention of AP.
What "modes" are that? Buying 100K of bad facebook ads?
I started going door to door for the Dems in 2004. I'm not being cynical - I spend lots of my time and money on mutual aid. I'm just telling you support of the Democratic party, and especially Russian conspiracy theories, ain't helping the cause.
No, ActivityPub is what powers Mastodon. AT is Bluesky, and is not interoperable.
It's hard to understand why AT is working on just reinventing things that already exist - Pixelfed on ActivityProtocol does this
I prefer a Powers and fertilizer
Trump is a Russian agent doing what Putin tells him to, and anything bad about the Democrats is a Russian pysop? Yeah, that's a conspiracy theory.
Serbia has free trade with both Russia and the EU. Again, it seems you don't understand what "neutral" means. Do you think unless it declares war on Russia, Serbia is a Russian puppet?
Sorry, so to be clear, a country having a poll that says some people like the EU and some Russia is proof that it is NOT neutral? Da li si lud?
It's like when you guys try to argue that somehow the Democrats doing nothing doesn't count because there's a rotating villain. Though you don't realize it, all you're actually doing is successfully arguing that voting for Democrats is pointless.
Sure thing. Good luck with your conspiracy theory, it's just helping Trump.
Jesam Americanac, glupane. I say NATO broke international law, because it did. If you don't' understand why that's a bad thing, look at those flags your chickenhawk ass has in your profile. They're under attack partially because of just that.
Yes, because Serbia is neutral. Even PussyLips managed to understand that.
U redu, Jan. To možeš samo.
jer ti lupetaš o velikoj srbiji kao jedinom razlogu da ne pušiš NATO kurac. i zato što pozivaš na ratove ali se u njima ne boriš kukavice.
Unlike you, seljake, not everyone is a nationalist.
Remittance is fine - but that already exists (Western Union), or is covered by sidestepping regulation. BTC can't do instant payments. Other chains, yes - BTC takes 15 minutes to process a payment. Third party fees - on and off ramps to fiat cost, and BTC can't buy goods.
Cuti, glupane. Serbia declared neutrality in 2007, and is not allied with Russia. Picka majke, zasto tako gadno lazes?
Ivana Nenadovic is a member of DiEM25's coordinating team. A socialist Serb, a resident of Belgrade, an activist who has absolutely no love for the EU's totalitarian, regime-changing ways, her take on the student protests deserves a hearing. Here it is: diem25.org/serbian-stud...
It is, and this isn't hate or an attack. Protesters have also removed Ukrainian and Palestinian flags for the same reason. This is a protest against the long-running corruption of the Vucic government.
Not really - because even if you want to argue that it was morally right for NATO to bomb Yugoslavia, it was plainly illegal under the UN Charter without Security Council authorization. Which NATO did not have. You want to argue morality, that's something that we can disagree. This is just fact.
