The historical version of this was the ww2 airplane patch job stats, where american bombers returning after getting hit were hit in specific areas and the statistician had to explain that those who returned despite that damage meant those were not the places to reinforce but the other areas of the plane makeing it more survivable, or more recently how Santa Monica CA almost removed crosswalks because that was where the highest pedestrian mortally rates were. In both those cases the people making the assumptions missed the bigger picture, for the planes that those who got hit in more sensitive spots got downed and for pedestrians getting killed at crosswalks that was because that is where pedestrians cross the street most of the time, almost leading to more deaths.

I do not see AI going away I see it being the tool they originally pitched before firing everyone as an assistant for coding and the such and that only when running locally. I think it will do a decent job in finding and patching 0 day issues in Linux kernels and the such but Hollywood and the tech sector after making a really tough few years for all their former employees will be having a very tough time themselves, and if the US government has any balls they will have to worry about being broken up as monopolies and prosecuted for their criminal behavior, but that seems to be wishful thinking even if a more responsible party get all the levers of power.
Which leak? I’d love an actual source.
You should talk to members of the satanic temple and the such those people tend to be humanists and all about personal sexual autonomy not pedos who eat babies, that sounds closer to blood libel territory.
I get the pedo thing for sure but where did the baby eating come from?

Progressive Politics@lemmy.world•The Strokes end Coachella set with fiery video condemning US and Israeli bombings in Iran and Gaza
27·4 days agoNot reading comprehension just poor sentence structure, the way the sentence is written, with no separating comma for example, the statement states that the US is involved actively in both bombing Iran and Gaza. The Oxford comma is useful. If you/the original commenter mean that the fact that US bombs are being used in Gaza means the US is involved in bombing Gaza then you could just as easily say that Iran has actively been attacking Israel since October 7th 2023 since the evidence shows they provided not only some of the attack plans for that terrorist attack for multiple reasons but also provided the rockets training and funding gg for Hamas for that attack. I am not justifying US involvement in the middle east but my pet peeves are double standards, poor logic, and not communicating your point accurately, and that post could potentially be any or all of those.

Well the other one who was behind bars was a Jew who either committed suicide very suspiciously, after an attempted strangulation by a corrupt cop who was his cell mate on murder charges, or got suicided whenit was inconvenient for him to exist for the pedo in chief among many others. So of the two arrests both were the procurers and monsters (as well as the most disposable on a social level), but the clients conveniently never knew the guy and the files are lying.
We know he was a far right agitator who wanted for there to be a massive right wing backlash against the left if I remember correctly.

Ah so the Irish potato famine, Indian famine caused by the East India company, or Holodomor sort of thing where it is better economically for the eliet to let the locals starve and sell all the food abroad type of thing I see.
I hate that youtube music did that when google music worked better and allowed you to run it without connecting periodically. Now I have Grayjay and a music app I use in graphene, never been happier to listen to the people I subscribe to only and have to go out of my way if I want to doomscroll.
Look, we live in a complex world where there are 2 sexes for human beings, with some people having traits of both to varying degrees, that leads to physiological, hormonal, genetic, and neurological differences that make every person unique and therefore we will not have a world that treats everyone fairly or equally as that would be close to impossible. What we do have is the mental capacity to cooperate and learn and trying to blame sex or gender for differences when there is a more obvious cause for the issue, wealth disparity, then that is the problem. In gender terms male, female or other, sexual orientation, or whatever we have seen time and time again that rich assholes get away with things for a very long time, in recent times you’ve had Ellen degeneres (abusing employees), Trump (need I elaborate?), Epstein (see trump), Harvey Weinstein, almost every politician above a certain level, and all sorts of people with social standing, power, or money able to get away with small things at first then escalating until the foundation of their reputation collapses, and maybe they are able to come back from that or maybe not. If you look on the lowest rungs of the pay scale I would assume there is sexual harassment or holding of pay raises from managers against their poorest employees but the poorest still make the same. Are there societal or biological incentives that means a woman makes more in tips as a waitress then a waiter I’d say yes and those factors also play into men probably grouping together to help move up in corporate jobs historically. I can tell you right here and now though that the richest people on earth do not need you to help some of them get pay parity with others when they both make millions or times more than you will in your life, or neither of the men or women at the top will likely ever spend time in anything other than a low security prison after bilking people of their retirement savings if they see jail time at all, and going into war of the sexes or race war territory is the easiest way they can divide us. Yes finding ways of making inequality lesser is a good thing, just don’t let it be a tool of separation and division against ourselves when unity is most needed.
Dude you need to read up on how native Americans dealt with Europeans and Americans until they were forced on reservations, the black hills were a focal point of war and and while the Lakota Sioux are the current tribe most associated with them in the American cultural zeitgeist the Cheyenne and Arapaho have older links to those hills if I remember correctly. Hell going back to the sale of Manhattan was not the local tribe selling it but their enemy neighbor who sold the land and helped depopulate the island for the Dutch.
In short native American tribes had conflict and hatreds between themselves and fought eachother to their detriment until there was no other way to go forward than to unite.




Well if Feinstein and this guy are both able to, at different times of course, have debilitating health complications that prevent them from showing up to work for major corporate interests maybe it’s time for a younger class of corrupt politicians.
