@yourfutureex @ReticentTurnip , or me and John Holmes.
@AlliFlowers I posted some holocaust survivors comparing 1930 Germany with the USA today a week or so ago. I think your hope is admirable, but unrealistic. We need Stonewall (1969) and Watts (1965, and 1992) to foster change.
@AlliFlowers , sounds good in theory, to stay on the moral high ground. I think in practice, the victor will write the history books, and the goal is to win.
@VOANews Does anyone with more than as HS education think otherwise?
@AlliFlowers , and knowing that, you still say no to picking up arms?
@AlliFlowers I don't know about that. Would pacifism have worked in 1930 Germany?? I don't think so.
@AlliFlowers , I know.... but when do we pick up arms and go to war??? Just talking isn't doing anything. that tree of liberty needs feeding.
@yurnidiot , he makes great cars, and space ships. I think that is about the limit of his abilities, and humanoid robots are way out of his league.
@AlliFlowers , I am at a loss on this. What can an individual do? My state is currently fairly safe for trans folks, Kentucky. But we may slip into darkness here too. So offering shelter to people from other states may not work. But I strongly advise people to flee those states that are falling, now. It's 1930s Germany in Florida and Texas right now. Just being noisy isn't enough, I don't think.
@yurnidiot , I honestly wonder how long it will be before AI can be loaded on a robot with basic joints and muscles modeled after human limbs and joints, and teaches itself to do things like this. Imagine a revolution in artificial legs and wheelchairs.
@seanfitz @ReticentTurnip Bonnie Raitt was the lead singer of Areosmith??
@ReticentTurnip , have you ever seen them in the same room at the same time? No?
@JosephMenn , seriously though, that guy was an idiot. He used his home computer and didn't know how to wipe his drive??
@w7voa , now if only that policy had teeth, and LEOs could be defunded if they fail to follow those policies.
@ElleGray , coming to America, staring the Swedish Chef...
@Pat , I have two theories. One regarding why the worst school killing in American history is effectively ignored by the media, and the public in general, and another regarding how the narrative has to change, and how to change it. My 2nd theory is that without people independently observing my 1st, they will unintentionally refuse to accept my 1st. That the act of pointing out the obvious undermines the ability to understand. It's something about how our brains are hardwired. My attempt has to be limited to pointing out the existence of the event, and asking why this is not a well known event considering how much worse it is than any other similar event in America.
@Pat , I don't celebrate it either. I fear repeats. And I feel that the reason no one has told them about the event isn't because it was from before they were born. Midway was before I was born. Jack the Ripper was before I was born. Krakatoa was before I was born. We learn about those things. We talk endlessly about school killings, but no one seems to know about the worst one in American history? There is intent in that omission.
@Pat , the Bath School massacre, 1927.
@biscuit_tornado So, you hate free speech?
