Sunday School 2 years, 9 months agoOff the top of my head, I imagine the real fear is that some parties unleash an AI with few restrictions or even an ability to reprogram themselves in some way, in a state in which we have become so dependent on AI that in order to stop it, we would have to effectively stop all AI and or shut off the internet. Basically when you ask a politician…[Read more]

What is the distinction between an artificial country and a legit?
The only remotely reasonable answer is, a legit country is one that is recognised by most other countries (I don’t care what most is…let’s say, like 75%?). Artificial isn’t a sensible word with country. Illegitimate maybe is? Like calling Tibet a country is illegitimate (even if…[Read more]

NATO was set up to defend the West against Russia. It’s only a threat to Putin because he is a humiliated bully.
The idea that NATO is a threat is ridiculous. It is a defensive alliance. Any country, if it were to meet the entry requirements and be accepted by other members, can join. Allowing a country on a border of a hostile force, is not a th…[Read more]

Sorry unseen, whatever your reply was, I’m not reading it nor engaging. You have completely lost the plot in critical thinking.

A war crime is a war crime. Even if someone invades your country, you do not have to kill civilians. That would be the equivalent of someone breaking into your house and fighting you, and instead of just repelling the assault, you go to their own house and murder their cat, dog, babies and poison the water supply of their entire…[Read more]

Simon, he is still in power, heavily benefitting from the corruption, networking, favours and privileges that come from that. And he is also maintaining the interests of those who keep him in power (one need not look much further than the resources that East Ukraine has, that war makes some people money and that while in War mode you can make…[Read more]

Putin went to war because he believed (and has so far been proven right) that it would help keep him in (if not strengthen his hold on) power and/or please those who help keep him in power. The idea that any country starts a war out of pride/glory/insults/historical-grievances is ridiculous. Simply too many players are involved who have interests…[Read more]

Wow, it wasn’t until I read this, that it dawned on me that…gasp…youtube is not a reliable source of health related information.

Sunday School 2 years, 9 months agoEncoginator, you seem to be under the impression that companies hire based on merit. There have been more than enough studies to show that women and visible minorities, better qualified are passed up for, typically, white men. This is done even by those who have been trained in, and fully agree with diversity in the work place. That bias is…[Read more]

Sunday School 2 years, 9 months agoHi Unseen, this used to frustrate me all the time, over here in the US.
A trick I learned from a friend was to copy the few words I could see, and paste them into a search engine – there are apparently many minor local news outlets that carry the same article without the paywall. -

Sunday School 2 years, 9 months agoGotta love it when a straight guy tells a lesbian what lesbians are up to these days.
After I stop laughing…. No I will stop…. Pahahahaha
on a more serious note, LGBTQIA are all oppressed groups. The only grouping they have is that they’ve all experienced massive discrimination and abuse from the standard “Man+Woman MUST=Baby” opinions.…[Read more]

Sunday School 2 years, 9 months agoHi Unseen, I think I believed that when I first considered trans people. I thought it was partly psychological.
I discovered some amazing information from biologists and genetics people over on another kind of forum. So I’m going to head back there and see if I can find just one good explanation – there’s a biologist called Claire Jordan who I’m…[Read more]

Sunday School 2 years, 9 months agoHi Autumn :). I’m learning. I really appreciate your ability to capture these issues in writing so clearly. Please don’t forget what you told me once, many years ago.
For all the visible readers and posters, there’s a multiplication of people we reach who read without commenting.
