It’s hard to say, but this is a good news. Congress and Presidents are controlled by their corporate lobbyists, so a part of me is inclined to believe there are some cut corners or just won’t be applied regardless of the FTC stance and ruling.

Even if that company is cooperating with genocide? Your problem is that you think you should give billionaires and trillion dollar companies your dignity and respect, while they don’t for you. They don’t care who you are, you’re just there to be used up and thrown away, unless you manage to become part of the c-suite…

Remember when Google had this in their company motto, “Don’t be evil.”, and was silently dropped? Good times.

If this becomes a successful project, just how much Big Airlines will be lobbying against it and future high speed rails?

Eh, considering their history in international politics, I think they’re content just muddying the waters.

Thankfully I can recognize the religious culture of Judaism and how it differs from the apartheid/Nazi-like nationalism prominent in Zionism, which are using their alleged Jewish ancestry to deflect and avoid criticism of their actions.

Even so, mainstream media continues to be centerfold in information distribution, and they cover a wide range of western media including those such in Canada and Europe, and just to add: CNN is barely different from Fox News despite their Left-wing and Right-wing leanings, and they are heavily, and I mean HEAVILY…

I’m sure you will. Sadly, it won’t justify your lack of empathy for others less fortunate than you. As such, can you be taken seriously as someone with sympathy, or is it just egotism disguised as empathy?

Unlike other “US-run” news sources which they all have something in common, they don’t humanize the Palestinians going through the genocide and they try their damnedest to not make the IDF look bad. Only recently, out of public pressure, were they forced to put the spotlight on Israel, but not too much. This was not…

Those sites you mention are effectively manipulated by Israeli media and get their topics from them, also NYT? You actually take them seriously? I’ll ask for evidence though since I’m curious. Before February... no, Dec2023/January 2024 when Biden’s numbers were tanking or around the time the UN’s vote was vetoed by…

Yes, Tiktok played a noticeable role in how the US public learned what’s been happening in Gaza and against Palestinians, because the app is not under US informational control as much as the rest of social media sites. It goes to show you how much another country controls the flow of information in western nations.…

Some trolls across sites are either a business executive, a bot, or someone from a company troll farm - yes, they exist. No competent, proud, empathetic, self-aware person who isn’t benefiting from the class warfare should back up anyone more powerful and wealthier than them.

I guess its because plenty of powerful people and for decades love their coke.

Do I need to refer to you to Matt’s reply? You underestimate the evil of the people investing in the tech, because it allows them to have much more power over people. If anything, replicating physical likeness of media celebrities is another goal more effectively in the media industry. But I’m sure there weren’t mass…

That’s just one of the benefits of a corporate-executive class controlling an entire government that is supposed to “work for the people” for the last several decades. When they’re not actually held accountable for their harm towards the rest of society or even just get rewarded, the rest of them are encouraged to do…

Yeah, people don’t realize how many psychopaths and sociopaths run things. The purpose of generative AI’s investment is just to steal people’s work/likeness for those psychopaths/sociopaths in power.

Everything the US produces tries to kill you or keep you stupid - probably so you can’t tell if something’s trying to kill you.

Then it’s not a proper path to it and requires more roads, simple as that. I’m familiar with these false/bad faith arguments. Protests should never be criminalized especially if the protestors know better and are not actually blocking important roads and are non-violent. For all we know, you’re taking advantage of the…

Oh this guy is DEFINITELY going to have a car bomb explode under “mysterious circumstances and we’re confident the state police will uncover with time.”

If you have no empathy or ethical standards, it’s quite easy to treat or twist a minor inconvenience as a major thing.
