Australian here, I feel exactly the same about them as I do any other group of Australians. Except for those damn new Zealanders, strutting around with their chilli box’s and better weather.(/s)

Now we are back to the paradox of tolerance, which you would realise if you actually tried.
- Comment on Man jailed for a year after endorsing neo-Nazi views and making antisemitic speech at Sydney rally on Australia Day 1 week ago:
There are DEFINITELY times when using words should be a crime, to take it to an extreme since that’s the realm you live in, Should someone not be persecuted for screaming obscenities at strangers? Or using words to drive someone to suicide? Or using words to lie and incriminate? If someone says to you they truly plan to kill you have they committed a crime?
- Comment on Man jailed for a year after endorsing neo-Nazi views and making antisemitic speech at Sydney rally on Australia Day 1 week ago:
It’s not an arbitrary decision, Intolerance is the opposite of tolerance. I don’t know how to make this any clearer.
Intolerance is defined as:
unwillingness to accept views, beliefs, or behaviour that differ from one’s own.
You’ll note that this definition is entirely internal, it is a behaviour based solely on your own actions, not an outside forces opinion of your actions. A man alone on an island could act just as intolerant of an arbitrary opinion as someone immersed in society.

It’s not about being intolerant of views you “don’t like” it’s about being intolerant of intolerant views, that’s why it’s a paradox. Personal feelings aren’t involved only whether the view seeks to persecute another.

But the republicans keep telling me he was a saint and definitely not a massive bigot who liked to go around antagonising university students under the guise of a “Political debate”.

- Comment on How Australia's social media ban threatens free expression 2 months ago:
Could be due to the rapid rise of authoritarianism, or how it’s become clear that foreign actors can exert massive unchecked influence via social media.
Don’t know, it can be hard to see the truth past all the cries of “Protect the Children!”

- Comment on Creating bots that show russian-like speech that are anti-US would be a good use of AI 2 months ago:
“Both sides are the same” Is an argument that frequently pops up whenever corruption and corporate ownership is brought up in regards to the Republican party, The idea being that the democrats are Also corrupt and corporate owned there for who you vote for doesn’t matter therefore your vote doesn’t matter. Aka political disengagement.
Not sure what you meant by the first part? Can you please show me where you see the correlation?
- Comment on Creating bots that show russian-like speech that are anti-US would be a good use of AI 2 months ago:
Russian bots do a lot more then just claim “russia good U.S bad”. They primarily echo the most extreme positions on both sides of any argument aka they also say “U.S good Russia bad” with the express goal of antagonising and polarising discussions.
They aren’t trying to brainwash you so much as make you angry and disengaged, their success in America for example wasn’t just in supporting right wing nutters (although they definitely invested more energy into bolster the political rights views) theu also posed as left wing nutters. Successfully shifting dialogue away from calmer more logical discussion and into the realm of extreme emotion.
I light of this, adding more bots that are obviously anti murica and sound Russia would just be doing what russia is already doing. You would be doing half their job for them.

It’s fascinating that they care so much about homosexuality. I get that it’s just a tool of control but it’s still weird.
