- Comment on Is it morally wrong for an immigrant or naturalized citizen to "keep a low profile" and avoid speaking up against the government in order to minimize the risks of denaturalization/deportation? 3 hours ago:
There’s no way you can say it’s more important given that all the left has done is show up for protests, including multiple “greatest protests ever” and all the right does is shit post and has nothing but victories. That math doesn’t math.
I have no idea how none of you see this. It’s like horse blinders or worse, willful ignorance.

Ok so I bring this up all over Lemmy for this reason and people always push back like “har har ok touch grass”
Why the hell do you need to identify yourself in a digital world. How fucking mental are we to not realize you are on a device that offers anonymity whole allowing you to engage and capture as many people as you’re willing to do.
How much effect did libsotiktok inflict? How’d she do it?
How much effect did… Anyone have any examples of that on the left?
Why? Well maybe it’s because online accounts on the left keep telling others to not engage, remove ourselves from platforms, show up in IRL resulting in lots of images of people like you getting your head kicked in and disappear.
Maybe it’s time to realize its free and fun to download meme and use AI to create shit posts online with the intention of keeping things in front of the public’s eye. The left keeps picking fights on arenas it cannot win and it’s weirdly not correcting for it.
It’s 2025, everything is fucking digital. Why is the left so hell bent on standing in a street and getting beat up by people who have trained for 8 years to beat them up effectively.
Come on people, it’s not 1967 FFS Gimp is free. What the fuck are people sleeping on.
“Oh guys I’m conflicted, I want you do something but I don’t want to get arrested and harassed.”
“Ok here’s an Internet connection, a VPN and few software plus free accounts. You just need to make fun of them, share opinions and network online in your underwear.”
“No, no no that’s crazy talk.”
Meanwhile the fucking right shit posted their way into they presidency. Trump talked about cat litter in classrooms, officially. Sunshine to kill COVID. Doesn’t matter.
You people act like you’re my grandmother trying to send an email. Back in the day the left were the tech people. Now it’s uncle Glenn with 8 Trump flags on his truck admin for 30 let’s go Brandon Facebook groups.

It’s both honestly. Overall I think the issue is rooted more in culture. Not tech. Secondly I am starting to question the role of media in yellow journalism to sell ads online by catering to crowds

Hahahaha hahaha hahaha bro, they literally seized every digital channel you all are like “let’s go stand in the street to show people who many of us there are” that’ll fucking change things.

can say whatever the fuck we want. This isn’t any kind of real issue. Think about it. If you went the rest of your life calling LLM’s turkey butt fuck sandwhichs, what changes? This article is just shit and people looking to be outraged over something that other articles told them to be outraged about. This is all pure fucking modern yellow journalism. I hope turkey butt sandwiches replace every journalist. I’m so done with their crap

- Comment on Why do people especially men care if someone forgives a cheating partner 4 days ago:
Why does anyone need to accept it.
I can’t understand the thinking where you think other people should accept it. Cheating can lead to very serious traumas with lasting effects. Many of us have lost friends. Friends who have killed themselves after being cheated on.
People can change. But most cheaters will cheat again. Cheating is a selfish behavior and people who cheat in my experience are incapable of changing their ways. It’s a line that crossing it in the first place says so much.

No my argument is we should make more content and have greater presence digitally instead of allowing the right wing groups like heritage foundation, TPUSA, prageru, project Veritas, ADF, Liberty foundation to capture and engage people while we sit back and complain in the smallest corners online.

You’re way to late then too. The perfect time to act on this was back in Iraq with that prince dick head with xi.
Also we all should have taken a harder stance at celebrity using these private security companies. Drake’s in Toronto blocking roads so he can get all 16 armored cars on to the 401.
Lots of people really defend the stuff by saying “look how much money they bring to the city, we can ignore it” but at the end of the day, it’s growing a new industry. I don’t get why we don’t call it out more like these fucks need to wait in traffic like the rest of us. I don’t care who they are or how much money they make. Roads are a public space and shared by everyone equally.

What proof do you have that using a left to right rule is universally true?
From my understanding It’s an agreed convention that is followed which doesn’t make it a universal truth. If we’re all doing it just to make things easier to understand, that implies we could have a right to left rule. It’s also true that not all cultures right in the same way.
But here is an interesting quote from Florian Cajori in his book a history of mathematical notations.
Lastly here is an article that also highlights the issue.

You’re the one not understanding here.
It’s not all that matters.
My point is the left as a group is alienating and isolating themselves from modern tools that the right are utilizing to gain advantageous.
They alienate themselves from these tools by making the same virtuosity grand standing about the evils of AI.
I understand you’re saying it’s the people using it. To me that is still just driving a wedge in that it creates an attitude that AI is not something the right should adopt since it’s a nefarious tool and only people who are bad or nefarious themselves could use a nefarious tool.

Those rules are based on axioms which are used to create statements which are used within proofs. As far as I know statements are pretty common and are a foundational part of all math.
Defining math as a language though is also going to be pointless here. It’s not really a yes or no thing. I’ll say it is a language but sure it’s arguable.
And again laws are created using statements. I have plenty of textbooks that contain “statements”

Oh yea? Nefarious? So it’s a pretty powerful tool. Bad people will get regardless. And you’re building a narrative among your peers that they need to alienate themselves from it. So what I said is spot on.

Yea so let’s alienate the left against it while the right embraces it. Fucking brilliant guys. Or or or maybe let’s keep spreading reasons the left should hate instead of embrace it so that we allow laws which leave it absolutely gutless for us but still has all the power and features for them to use against it. Then we can get more content from starving artist charging $100 monthly patrons to their Garfield clone webcomic while the right keep winning public opinion and elections and taking away our rights.
Let’s see how that plays out cotton.

Winter, 1987 Dec 14. It was a Monday.
Snow hadn’t fallen yet but the cold was always familiar by then.
I had just started watching The Price Is Right.
I stopped the microwave at 00:00.
It was just me and my pastel blue plastic plate warmed by the cut up hot dog resting on top. Bob Barker called another constant down. I don’t remember what the showcase was that day but it’s a day I’ll never forget.

No no no you guys need to go protest again. This time make your signs funnier and maybe the news will say it’s the biggest single day protest again. It’s like how we fixed climate change by throwing soup at famous art. This stuff works every time. We have the power
