There isn't a single slogan used by Democrats that Republicans don't find a way to use back, incorrectly

The question of why specific immigrants are here isn't relevant to the topic of how they should be treated once they're legally here. Some are here bc of bad US foreign policy, others aren't, but all should be treated with respect.

Cluster munitions are bad when you're an invading army bc some of the explosives fail to fire, endangering civilians who come across them later. Ukraine, however, is using them on its own territory to combat russia who 1) is already using cluster munitions with a greater fail rate than the ones the US is providing Ukraine, and 2) deliberately mines the areas they invade in a way to kill civilians (e.g. setting up a mine to explode if you try to move the corpse of a beloved family dog). So in this case, using the US's cluster munitions to get russia out is a net positive.

Yeah, how terrible of them to refuse to take interviews where they're asked to respond to talking points created by the media, just to provide free content to keep the 24/7 news cycle spinning

The framing of that article that the writers of the Constitution established some genius system in the Electoral College is a fantasy at odds with the historical reality. The Electoral College was born of compromise and a simple lack of technology to conduct a national popular vote. The writers themselves saw it as barely justifiable even when they wrote it, and it's certainly completely unjustifiable today. The only people still fighting for it are those who want to impose tyranny even when they can't win the majority of the vote.

There's a preprint paper out that claims to prove that the technology used in LLMs will never be able to be extended to AGI, due to the exponentially increasing demand for resources they'd require. I don't know enough formal CS to evaluate their methods, but to the extent I understand their argument, it is compelling.

Blue MAGA is a baseless propaganda attempt to claim Democrats are the same as MAGA Republicans. Basically, it's repackaged "both sides" bullshit

I have tried--the instructions are woefully inadequate. I tried following them to build Ventoy and had to make numerous modifications just to get the first couple of components to build. At that point I gave up
