@ Enco – I sincerely hope AronRa only means he is the former sense of “woke” because he is a much better thinker than the latter sense of “woke” deserves, though this may be a Wishful thinking Fallacy on my part, since “Wokeism”. in the latter sense, has seemingly consumed everything and everyone.

I can confirm that AronRa is “woke” in t…[Read more]

As a clarification to O’Brien and Marks, Tucker Carlson no longer supports Trump and MAGA in part because Tucker regards Trump as a puppet of Bibi and Israel.

Tucker’s America First allies also no longer support Trump and MAGA, namely Nick Furntes, Marjorie Taylor Green, Rep. Thomas Massie, R-Ky., and former counterterrorism official Joe…[Read more]

His apology of Hitler kinda reminds me of the leftist justification of islamism/terrorism/jihad. Not that it’s an evil ideology independent of circumstances that must be stopped; rather that colonialism caused the ‘resistance’ and as an explicable reaction it is justified. So get on the Hitler train…[Read more]

Sacre Dieu!. A society of month-long vacations, four-day work weeks, free education, Socialized Medicine, and womb-to-tomb support for all citizens and all who can make it over the borders has not done the French any good:

I enjoy pissing off religious bigots too.

I do too. However–defeating that amalgam of True Scottish Strawmen attacking To the Man from Mott to Bailey and back in an Equivocating Circle which was a Widening Gyre while riding at a Gish Gallop and pickling Red Herrings in a Pot Calling A Kettle Black Tu Quoque-style–does not require being…[Read more]

“Just because I might post an interesting article does not mean I agree with it. Which side would you like me to argue from?”

Potentially, any of it is entertaining. As for whether it is true or good, that is ad hoc and case-by-case. In some cases, some sources get it so consistently wrong, they are best used as cage lining for vir…[Read more]

And it was all the go in Sir Winston’s day, since he coined the phrase, just more hush-hush beck then…Which might explain why Laughing Boy Tucker Carlson thinks Sir Winston was the bad guy of World War II, since Ol’Schicklegruber wouldn’t allow “acts of sabotage against the Aryan people” like butt-stuff and sookie-sookie!

Speaking of…[Read more]

If women freely exercising political power threatens your preferred social order, is the problem women’s political power—or your social order? Well Doug, which is it?

A Theocracy under Paula White would be no better than under Doug Wilson, just as Sumaru would be no better than Fu-Manchu. If it’s any political order other than a Con…[Read more]

Have a great week everyone!

Beth Mole of Ars Technica got a second opinion of Bobby Brainworm’s views on masks, social distancing, and vaccines from both Google’s GeminiAI and ChatGPT. Both contradict him:

RFK Jr. thinks AI will free us from the “tyranny” of medical facts, expertise
AI is far from a perfect resource. But it seems to hallucinate les…[Read more]

Speaking of Bad Actors, Bobby Brainworm is now saying that AI is more reliable than the medical expertise of Doctors and that AIs can be trusted to give valid second medical opinions:

Yesterday, I encountered a man with an AI made T-Shirt that had a set of praying hands with the glow and radiance that you see in a lot of AI portrayals and the words around the hands said, and I quote:

“Only God Can Me Judge Me!”

Without intending an argument on theology, I simply pointed out to the man that the T-Shirt…[Read more]

I’d like to have met him too. Cosmos and The Demon-Haunted Worldwere both super works. But the AI did him no justice in that video by not translating and transcribing him accurately.

AI doesn’t do itself justice evidently, judging from AI actress Tilly Norwood’s interview with Piers Morgan, where she just randomly broke into Chinese…[Read more]

I’ve said a few times now, I believe the problem will be “bad actors”. It’s increasingly easy for bad actors to use AI to benefit themselves or promote an idealism, with potentially horrible consequences.

AI is already able to design human gene-editing processes, with abilities to edit any other species on the way, including pandemic-enhanced…[Read more]

Enco,

If that fantasy of breaking bread/smoking a joint/having a beer with intellectual luminaries materialized i’d include Sagan. Cool guy. Popularizer of science. Endless curiosity and humility.
