The anti-woke campaigner brought legal action against Meta – … – after the company’s artificial intelligence chatbot falsely stated he took part in the riot at the US Capitol on 6 January, 2021, seeking $5 million in damages.
Hold up, you can a convince a chat bot to say something bad about you and then sue that company into giving you a job?
What the fuck is happening right now?
Meta is one big scam is what I‘m taking away from the last decade.
Meta seems to really want to overcorrect… they demanded Meta remove their diversity policies, so Meta said that they’d do one better and just start stringing people up in the office.
I love the irony of people trying to make there AI’s not gay.
BROTHER
TURING WAS GAY THE GODFATHER OF COMPUTERS.
oh the irony
Looks like the evil, shitty little brother of Technology Connections

I’m about to get real mean to people still on FB/insta. Wtf will it take for you people to say no to a shitty social media website?
A lack of pictures of my extended family.
Videos of my nieces figure skating are the primary reason I haven’t deleted my account
Try to get them to text them instead. Giant family text chains are a lot more fun (and chaotic) than generic social media.
email exists and isn’t run by the worst people on earth
Pretty sure you can download that stuff if you want to save it.
Just wait until you learn how many leftists are still on Xitter even after 2024 2020 2019 2018 2017 2016 when it was Trumps main outlet to win the election.
Don’t forget about TikTok.
“Non-biased AI” = Very right-wing biased AI
“free of bias” has always meant “unacknowledged right wing bias”
“Fair and Balanced” Fox News tag line for years
Zuckerberg is such a coward.
He bends over backwards for even the slightest change in wind, like VR or a conservative govt. He dropped open-weight llama at the first experimental stumble.
Mark my words, if a mega liberals got into power, he’d act as woke as can be.
It's not cowardice, it's intentional. He wants a timeline where techno-lords with divine authority oversee their vassal states and nations are a thing of the past. Bending over for a fascist party is the fastest way to get there.
I honestly think Zuck is more of a coward than the Palantir CEO and that techno feudalism crowd. He’s just so obviously insecure in all his decision making it’s unreal.
I just had the opportunity to purchase “AI” eyeglasses. They do recording, pictures, capture audio, supposedly let you talk to them, etc. IIRC the frames were by Ray Ban, they didn’t look awful.
They were powered by Meta. That was an instant hard pass for me.
TBF I’d probably have skipped them anyway, but if they’d been some other company I’d have at least been intrigued and given them another look.
We’re in hell.
anti-LGBTQ+ conspiracy theorist
That’s so nice of him to be opposed to LGBTQ+ conspiracy theorists!
Delete your facebook accounts, and anything else related to this company. If your argument is that your family still uses one, then force them to get rid of it too.
Don’t participate in the fascist echochamber
I really wish I could delete my Facebook and Instagram, but my late brother’s account is on both and I really miss him. I try to do my part by not making content for the machine nor interact with the platform and only go on when I really miss my brother
My struggle for years has been quitting WhatsApp…
I never started using it. It’s the cancer version of messaging.
I sometimes get weird looks from people when I tell them I refuse to use it.
Signal is the way to go.
I quit everything except whatsapp, it’s virtually impossible without actually impacting my life negatively. Been trying and some friends have started using Signal, but most people don’t.
Robby Starbuck
That sounds like a name from some shitty fiction
Or, ironically, a gay porn actor.
Buck Rogers?
Robby Starbuck? Owner of the Robsdale Starbucks? The one with Cash Nebuler iced coffee?
I feel like a lot of the anger at transexuals is because men don’t want to be confused as women
The ones with femine features who rely on their clothing and social norms to be identified as a man.
If all I saw was the thumbnail, I probably would have unintentionally misgendered this piece of shit. They treat women like property so their main concern is if someone treats them like a woman.
So they insist on a strict adherence to gender norms to avoid people confusing them with what they consider to be “lesser”
Reactionaries decry “identity politics,” because it’s literally all they have; they’re the ones pushing to make their list of prescribed identities the only socially acceptable ones.
They loathe women who jump their station and get a “man’s job.” They’re disgusted by trans people who won’t accept their assignment to either pump out babies for the oligarchy or mainain white Christian supremacy. They’re enraged by immigrants who “don’t belong.”
The identity that they care about most though is “conservative.” You can get away with anything so long as you fly that particular freak flag and pretend to apologize. They’re narrow-minded bigots who should be ostracized in any civilized society.
I mean, “both sides” act like the other is crazy, but it’s all normal human variation.
About 20% of people are going to be super into a leader who uses violence to obtain compliance, and are always ready to personally do the same.
There’s always been that slice of humanity and there always will be.
It’s just if we let that ~20% run the show, shit is going to suck for the other ~80%, and also a lot of that ~20%.
We need to understand why they’re like this so we can mitigate their influence on society on a larger scale. Or even better, get a “strong” progressive leader that gives them the warm and fuzzies they desperately need to stop being such pieces of shit.
it’s close, but what your observation actually shows is their hypocrisy.
most transphobia is caused by bioessentialism. people think that there’s something “inate” to you assigned gender/sex at birth. to them, that makes them special and fitting of a certain role.
when you tell people that you can change genders, they freak out, because that means that the traits they think they have isn’t inherent to their gender at birth (being assigned a man at birth doesn’t make you manly inherently).
this is why when you see a lot of terfs, for example, justifying why trans women aren’t women, they use things like the ability to give birth, having to take care of the household, primary/secondary sexual characteristics to justify themselves. they cling to the idea that afab people have something inherent that amab people don’t, so that they feel like they have those traits, and that it makes them better.
Taking the example of a cis man that has feminine features and that hides it, because they feel insecure and need to prove their masculinity. There is nothing wrong with that, admit that you don’t lie to yourself, by saying that your “inherent masculinity” gives you more masculine traits that someone who’s afab could never have.
TLDR: people who are insecure about their gender prop themselves up by attaching themselves to inherent traits that they think others could never have. anything that goes against that breaks their mind.
While that’s gotta be a big part of it, I’m not sure that’s the true source of their hatred and bigotry, though it’s obviously not the same for every bigot. I think it boils down to an even simpler insecurity. Not necessarily an insecurity with their own gender, but more a feeling of jealous insecurity when they see people who genuinely know who they are and have put in the work to figure themselves out. Gender is just the easiest part of their identity to hate. I don’t think that insecurity is necessarily conscious, though the hatred certainly is, it’s more an enviousness of someone who is obviously secure with themselves and their body.
I had a similar reaction to the thumbnail. My first thought, before reading anything, was “huh, Meta found a lesbian who hates the rest of the LGBTQ community.”
I mean, not to dig on the guy too much…
But look at that picture and imagine how he was treated growing up in a red area. It’s a pretty safe bet that he had gender norms forced on him since a young age because he looks ambiguous.
Now he wants to do the same to everyone else.
Like, he’s a piece of shit, undoubtedly.
But we need to understandwhy he’s a piece of shit, even if he’s irredeemable.
Because if we don’t understand it, we can’t stop it from happening to the next generation.
People are animals, were not innately good, we need socialized. And anyone who thinks lack of socialization isn’t a root cause of most of our problem, they’re frankly not paying attention.
It’s not hard to figure this out, but it needs logic and critical thinking. Writing them off as a monster just needs emotion. It’s easier, but practically ineffective
Damn, that hairline though… They’re transitioning so well
Starbuck’s mission to bring “sanity back to corporate America”
ugh, I can’t with them
Dude looks like the love child of Charlie Kirk and his sister
Can’t be Charlie Kirk’s, face is too big. Gotta be some unfortunate look alike’s love child instead.
Oh god can you imagine the horror of being a Charlie Kirk look alike? Like, you can’t fucking help it, it’s genetics- you’re not an asshole racist facist or anything either, just cursed to walk the earth looking like a giant fucking asshole, doomed
He looks like he’s pushed himself so deep in the closet that he broke through the wall in the back…
The US really is the #1 place for doublespeak huh?
Do they can he concentration camps recreation camps too?
They sort of do. “Alligator Alcatraz” comes to mind
“They’re just there thinking real hard”
tech bros really want people to hate ai huh
People need to realize AI is just a tool. A very powerful one. it will be used against your interest… But we just need to “download the car” faster than they try to make us “hate AI” with their bullshit.
All AI has ever done for me is waste my time
God, I wish the twins would have controlled this platform instead of the stealing douche with no brain cells but the one to suck Drumpf’s dick! Tragic to think about if the twins wouldn’t have met him…
FB is honestly a joke now and soon to be Instagram! Most of my friends have left all his platforms and refuse to go back and I haven’t had FB in like 10 years and my life is amazing! I don’t have conspiracies on my mind, politics flooding my feed, and the honest to goodness best… I AM NOT SUBJECTED TO ALL THE FALSE INFO!!! Almost all is false and with the absence of intelligent people fact checking, everyone on FB is doomed!
I swear if another GenX/boomer talks to me about how “the left controls the weather” or how “Trump made couples living together for more than 5 years are married”… I am going to fucking lose it!! I cannot handle the misinformation anymore! Where has the sanctity of journalism gone? It was replaced by “influencers” who basically are mouth pieces for FAME, nothing else. They don’t care about spreading misinformation, only money and fame! Savages!
that’s a cool 2025 headline
Shocker!
Is this lady trans?
I used to not like when people would shitpost about bigots being Secret Transes. But I’m not gonna lie, with how often these fuck knuckles have accused my cisgender wife of being trans because she’s 5’10" and rather butch looking? Or the piece of shit lady who transvestigated my at the time 2 year old daughter? I can’t bring myself to care about it happening to this “Behold, the Master Race” looking headass.
