  • I think that’s a different discussion.m. We can make excuses all day for how people end up with extreme views. It doesn’t change anything. The reason it occurs is part of human nature, a weakness that one has to choose to overcome on a daily basis or not. Choosing wrong too often and there might be no way back.

    I find this most evident in people who suddenly shift right when they end up in some sex scandal, they move towards the group that is most forgiving of such events and lose themselves in the shift. Russel Brand and Musk are two examples.

    Knowledge seeking for the sake of knowledge seeking is something totally different. It requires accepting one knows nothing and despite all the knowledge gather now knows less. It requires a humility that can be uncomfortable.

    Few end up adding significant new knowledge. Those who do maintain a humbleness as the recognize the efforts who came before them.

    Those who pretend become exploiters, it takes little effort to reveal their search was only ever for loopholes. Those people are another form of extremist.

    If you don’t like being called out for a both sides argument, doubling down on the both sides argument isn’t going to progress the conversation.

    It only serves to illustrate your lack of intelligence and knowledge. You’re so focused on Palestine you don’t give a fuck out the war on women that is also taking place.

    Anyone who’s main focus for this election is Palestine is best case scenario, a moron.

    Currently, mainly just cooking.

    In the future, I’m hoping to leverage it to create video content. I’ve actually been disappointed in its usefulness for writing sci-fi, it tends to want to argue. But based on the surreal images that it can created I am hoping that can be translated into creating 3D scenes that can be used to extract video.

    Google is free to use. It still is. There is no price.

    Facrbook, fee to use. Still is.

    Both have been enshittified. There is no price being gouged.

    The services they do sell are to advertisers, those costs are not being cut, they are focused on improving their targeting to attract more revenue.

    Enshittification is a very simply concept; only product quality is measured. There might be price gouging but turn doesn’t have to be.

    a third party (who won’t win but maybe doesn’t love genocide).

    That “maybe” is doing all the work here.

    Maybe that third party candidate orgasms to genocide.

    But main point is you admit they won’t win so what you’re, which you feel alleviates you from being culpable. This entire process is occurring in your imagination, all based on the fantasy of a maybe.

    You cross the line when you attack others for making a choice among the valid options. Getting upset that people don’t go along with your story is weird and antisocial.
