    imagine the power of AI upon achieving its potential or even now as tutors to children. Companions too. Always there. Guiding. If socratic it would bring out the best in us. If it were the path of indoctrination anything goes.

    Just a few algorithms and biases direct a big dummy to unshakable beliefs. The best and brightest who attend ivy are if anything more susceptible or so it seems. How easily manipulated to good or evil, rationalism and compassion or Palestiniasm and fascism.

    It looks like some people on the side of Enlightenment going by the handle of Witness Protocol have already harnessed AI and are having a great swinging time doing it! I sense a definite Mel Brooks inspiration here! As Erkel would ask: “Did you do that, Jake?” 😁

    I haven’t heard all their tracks yet, (I’m presently in a NSFW zone without headphones) but if they are as great as this one, the whole album belongs on Billboard!

    Well, spreading the lime in anticipation of shit floods is one way to go. That and routing the shit flood away to the compost piles and septic tanks of History.

    Algorithims can run in all directions. This can work in the favor of Enlightenment ideals too.

    Not sure who you are addressing, but I would agree that refuting the charge of Genocide directed against Israel will take even more efforts.

    Since Israel is sending in vaccinations for Palestinians, the effort will also have to include refuting Misinformation/Disinformation/Malinformation (MDM *Growl!* 🦁) about vaccinations.

    Several years back, Pakistan had a relapse of Polio because Mullahs there were spreading the notion that Jews were trying to make Pakistanis sterile with vaccines. Doctors actually had to blow the dust off old “Iron Lungs” to treat the victims of this hate propaganda.

    Hell naw, I ain’t a mad Atheist! Now all you Westboro Baptists, LDS Bicycle Boys, Watchtower Wonks, Hari Krishna’s, and Jihadi mad-bombers just get off my lawn!

    😁😜

    Greetings, Jimmy! Glad to see a new poster here. Greta Christina’s anger was well summed up and righteous! Greta Christina’s anger at religion beats Greta Thunberg’s Gaia-and-Gaza Worship!

    I noticed earlier that my simple, nuanced statements of fact were all it took to scare IvyMarcum and Looweegee from flooding the Atheist Zone with Jew hating shit from the “Revolutionary Change” and “Breaking Points” channels on YouTube.

    As Crow T. Robot said about air-guitar players at parties: “With research, there is hope!”

    All the more reason to keep Our World In Data handy.

    When bad actors try to “flood the zone with shit,” a source like Our World In Data is a lime spreader that decomposes the shit and keeps the stench down.

    If used in advance of shit floodings, it might keep the bad actors away. In any event, something beautiful may grow from the lime if administered judiciously.

    Fellow Unbelievers:

    Here are some crucial figures to consider on the subject of Palestine, from Our World In Data, who in turn cites United Nations figures.

    Our World In Data is a very thorough source frequently cited by HumanProgress.org and Steven Pinker and really does it’s homework:

    Population and Demography–Palestine
    https://ourworldindata.org/profile/population-demography/palestine

    Palestine has it’s share of problems, many of which are inflicted by it’s leaders, but with a negative migration of -25,000, it is hardly an “open-air concentration camp” as the Free Palestine” crowd have described it.

    And while it does have an unacceptable child mortality (and all child mortality is unacceptable,) it does follow the worldwide trend of going downward.

    And with a fertility rate above Israel’s and a population growth projected to be just under 12 million by 2100, Palestine is hardly a victim of genocide.

    To see how the data progresses across the graphs, just press the “play” button or for specific years move the button across the bar by pointing and clicking.

    Enco, I think the point *is* the violation of structure. πŸ˜‰

    Exactly! Which is why I described it as “perfectly Trumpian and MAGA/MAHA-esque!”

    All the talk of limericks and Trump reminds me, I just hope MAHA influencers and grifters never get into the realm of sex therapy!

    That will probably fill the emergency rooms and maybe even police booking offices! 😱

    By the way, did Ireland finish fumigating after Trump’s visit? Did Protestants and Catholics, Black & Tans and Sinn Fein unite in shaking shillelaghs against him?

    When Trump took a dump on linguistics,
    He’d hump his own daughter by mutilization,
    Into her room he’d creep.
    Putin has the vid to keep.
    It is but a small leap.

    A most excellent cinquain!

    Hmmm…It violates the limmerick norm of the first two lines rhyming, but still maintains the filthy “Man from Nantuckett” vibe. I guess you could call it IamBigly PentUpaMeter or even Muzakβ„’ Mutilization if set to an Autotuned out-of-tune arrangement of notes!

    Perfectly Trumpian and MAGA/MAHA-esque!πŸ€ͺπŸ˜„πŸ˜…πŸ˜‚πŸ€£

    Debunking Creationists Speech at NaNoCon 202mouths6.

    Forrest Valkai forgot a few things: In his beginning statement, “One of these is not like the others. One of these things does not belong.”

    If you don’t like police state powers and if you think Trans people have human rights, then A “Free Palestine” under the Hamas that mouths that slogan is not the place to be.

    Likewise, educating others on Evolution and enjoying Life, The Universe and Everything is kinda hard living under Mullahs and Jihadis..

    I hope he never has to find this out the hard way, because his lessons are otherwise really good.

    Underneath the steeple and the belfry are the sheeple and they love em some Trump though his incumbency is lethal.

    When Bush went nucular the naysayers sought his jugular.

    When Trump took a dump on linguistics he’d hump his own daughter by mutilization against her protestation and his infestation sans oblation. Into her room he’d creep. Putin has the vid to keep. It is but a small leap.

    Wow! That is a both disgusting and very clever rhyme…and I wouldn’t be surprised if it’s most likely a bet-worthy topic on Polymarket.

    How the mighty have fallen!

    Enco,

    Can’t believe i listened to whole thing. What great background noise when handicapping equines. The self proclaimed high iq genius taught me a new word. Mutilizaton. And here all these years thinking it is mutilation. What do i know.

    I don’t recall hearing “Mutilization” in the Gastonia speech; I was busy with a roast, so I’ll have to listen again. I looked it up and he did say “Mutilization” 3 and 4 months ago. A triple-down by Trump would be a charm.πŸ˜„πŸ˜…πŸ˜‚πŸ€£

    But Gastonians wouldn’t have recognized any word with as many syllables as “Mutilization” anyway, so it would be all the same to them. πŸ€ͺ😁

    I leave it to the great authority who tells us we got no damn issue with Ai as long as he is prez. Okay glad to know…

    With Trump, we’ve never had to contend with Actual Intelligence, let alone Artificial intelligence.

    I had my heart set on getting a new monitor screen to watch and critique another version of MST3K after my old screen suddenly died. It lived a good life of several years.

    Alas, Trump and his entourage.are clogging up traffic in my town and probably will for the next two hours.

    Well, it won’t be the first time he’s held up commerce and progress. Fortunately, I got my new COVID-19 booster yesterday, so he and Bobby Brainworm didn’t stop that.

    It’s happening now if anyone has the stomach to watch:

    Above, I accidentally typed in Mystery Science Theater 300 not 3000.. This was a mistake obviously. This would be more fitting for the time when Pearl, Professor BoBo, and “Brain Guy” Observer fell in a worm-hole and went to Roman times.
