Looks like Diaz guy purposely moved down to fuck the guy behind him.

Musk saying he is stepping down when week earlier was saying he will be there for a year (yes, I know he is behind the scenes, but was forced to not be public).

The narrative about Ukraine, Canada, Greenland softened.

Politicians who went to El Salvador.

The problem is that when this admin softened so did the protests and that's bad.

It is much harder to get a buy in from general population that arrests and natural law was necessary if the protests are peaceful.

Escalation caused by the government motivates more people to join the protest. While of protest was violent from the start more people will be against it and will avoid being part of it.

Another example, Ukrainian orange revolution and Euromaidan. It was started by students (BTW this is why trump attacks students) and as the government started being violent, made other Ukrainians join.

This.

musk went into hiding, the administration toned down, we need to continue and encourage others to do, otherwise all that effort was wasted.

The protests are happening all the time, especially on weekends. I unfortunately see mostly older folks there, and this affects us much more is than them as we will have to live with this for decades of we don't do anything. One time me that he lived here for 76 years and this is unprecedented. Please continue to show up http://mobilize.us/indivisible

Continue protests at Tesla, he is in hiding but still involved.

Also please join the training http://www.pramilaforcongress.com/the-resistance-lab

Peaceful protests actually work better, but requires actual action not just sitting at home and upvoting shit.

Poland was able to overthrow authoritarian regime via peaceful protests, general strikes. Yes, at moments they turned violent, but it is because the government escalated it.

We don't want this administration to use protest's violence to be used to consolidate their power, instead we want the violence caused by the government to encourage more people to join protests. It is more of us than them, we actually have more power and it is a matter of everyone realizing this.

I encourage everyone to take Resistance Lab training: http://www.pramilaforcongress.com/the-resistance-lab

Sadly, the best use case for LLM is to pretend to be a human on social media and influence their opinion.

Musk accidentally showed that's what they are actually using AI for, by having Grok inject disinformation about South Africa.

There are many more reasons for not wanting to wear fitted clothes. They are not comfortable and you actually need to look good to look better.

trust but verify

The thing is that LLM is a professional bullshitter. It is actually trained to produce text that can fool ordinary person into thinking that it was produced by a human. The facts come 2nd.

Well, it is certain that the Twitter guy didn't do it, as despite the image he promotes of himself, he is not an engineer. He asked of someone to do it.

But this fiasco is highlighting something very important.

Since his bot has mechanism to inject opinions on specific topics, it means the technology is likely being trained to replace normal users with bots that will try to influence opinions of regular people.

It should be signal to drop social media especially Twitter, Facebook, Instagram and TikTok.

There is some evidence that tabulating machines were tempered with. I was wondering if calling a bomb threat wasn't part of it.

When alarm was called and everyone left the building someone could get in and switched software.

First of all, this is about being PoC not about having certain political view.

Or do you think there is a reason that people with different skin color vote certain way?

Second, if this was the community I encountered some time ago, then it was mere tagging so people couldn't pretend to be someone who they aren't. You still could post there without being black.

But anyway this was about political groups. I don't see "leftists" subreddits requiring a purity check like I see on nearly every conservative subreddit.
