CITRUS

Seriously it's dumb, one of the biggest road blocks to Western leftists in supporting China is the Uyghur Narrative, if they really were fascists why would they be against a settler state genociding a majority muslim population?

I thought the UK already has nukes what the hell does this even do?

Is Chile the best or worst country for high speed rail?

Thing with AI is they don't even need be the ultra intelligent genie in a bottle to have an impact. It's the quantitative potential which will shape the workforce. I'm speaking on behalf of the creatives, can't speak for IT but I assume it's similar.

Sorry I had giant spiel I was working on but honestly it just deserves to be developed further into an essay lol.

I'll just list some points I guess.

-Portfolio based jobs, learn as you go. Professional artists right now with years of work experience should be fine, as the art from ai is just slop once you start paying attention to anything other than just how detailed it is. Symbolism, meaning, telling a story through the scene. Ai can't do composition, let alone that. Not to mention of the greatest parts of art is the human connection, but still drawing/painting/whatever is hard to make accurate. And so can do that, eventually, but it can fit dirt cheap and doesn't strike. Even though beginner artists can do the higher level symbolism and composition, where they fall flat is the detail and AI acts a barrier to entry.

-Smaller artist "start ups" if you will have a horrible selection process with how much ai junk you have to soft through. Ai has totally bloated the portfolio process.

-Most main stream garbage is already recycled so AI isn't even going to change the main stream, but again finding the quality content will be harder and harder.

-Silver lining is petite bourgeois jobs being the creatives and IT (also already left leaning) will finally be losing their special status.

-I think in a socialist state AI art could be kept in as a source of raw material for a giant artist organization to train younger artists to work with, so not only are artists elevated to a more abstracted position in the process, but then we won't have AI art clogging up every single space.

Sorry I've been meaning right around this fir a while so this really just acts as a little brain dump. Also ran out of time lol. I'm a goofball.

THIS IS WHAT'S HAPPENING IN XINJIANG THAT CHINA DOESN'T WANT US TO KNOW!!!

Yeah but I remember vividly at a party two libs saying that but then immediately after "but communism doesn't work". Both are die hard "socialists not communists" centrists and one's the pastiest gusano I've ever seen.

You think so? Hasn't their geopolitical position put them in a place of stability? I mean I wish tho 😭

Thanks ComradeSalad for letting us know the ingredients to napalm so we can watch out for accidental mixtures 🤗

Has to be Mario Sunshine (Via Wii) , Mario Galaxy, Kirby's Epic Yarn, or really any Wii game my grandma got us. I still tear up just by hearing the main menu ambience. Mario Sunshine was wild, cause I never really played it as a kid, but my dad did and the imprint was still nostalgic so when I did play it a few years ago in that definitely a scam Mario 3D Allstars it scratched an itch of nostalgia and new experience.

You know that would explain Ronald McDonald as the mascot of McDonalds

Sorta related topic to those with fear of raising kids in a dangerous world, when was the world safe to have kids?

Now it's wild to think about not too long ago, parents would go in with the mindset not all of their children would make it and that was completely normal. Thankfully now (or for now) our kids won't loose their legs from a disease like polio or a factory accident, so we don't need to worry about them being in harms way. I think what is happening currently, is the younger generations are at a time where living conditions are starting to go down in the core and that completely shatters our vision of what our kids future would look like.

While a dangerous world won't stop us from having kids, it'll take a bit for gen z to get used to the prospect of a dangerous future and especially as we mature into adulthood and away from being terminally online. Also the nuclear family isn't as embedded in heads as time progresses so it's hard to say what "families" would look like.

If you feel like you shouldn't have kids then don't have kids, its understandable. But don't be those people who judge others for having children in a dangerous world, cause you and I wouldn't be here if that was the end all be all decision for humanity.

Oh yeah he was for sure, but given the time its not too surprising. I remember near the end of his life he was turning around on his views of the Irish, so there's that. But more importantly the mechanisms of class struggle that are concrete in our world exist independently from Marx even though the ideological frame work and philosophy that analyzes it bears his name. Electricity isn't viable or not depending on how shitty Edison was (this is a pretty lazy example, given how much info that ghoul stole). Now it feels wrong because in the social sciences theres a human aspect. So when an incredible thinker figures out class relations and advocates for proletarian liberation, a sense of betrayal emerges from their regressive social views because of the hypocrisy.
