Absolutely, this is what is going to happen when the average person gets to use AI- "well, the computer says..."

Why would they? When the tariffs go into effect, companies can raise prices.

When the tariffs get rolled back, companies can enjoy the increased revenue by not lowering their prices back down.

This is a great deal for them, so they'll keep donating to Trump.

"I'll Believe That Corporations Are People When Texas Executes One"

~Robert Reich


I recently did a rewatch where I replaced the audio in 'Jupiter and Beyond the Infinite' with Pink Floyd's 'Echoes'. It really changed the experience for me. Going into 20+ minutes of psychedelic rock after over 100 minutes of classical music really made it feel like a transformative experience.


I got a used Quest 2 last year for exactly this reason


You cannot "get away" from politics. Burying your head in the sand will not insulate you from what is happening.


Plato: "One of the penalties of refusing to participate in politics is that you end up being governed by your inferiors."

I don't love the phrasing of inferiors, but at least evil certainly applies. (Well thought out, well informed) Politics is a duty not a luxury.


What is the point of encouraging more people to participate in politics when that increases the chances of your party losing? From a relatively recent analysis of polls at https://archive.is/kbwom "The reality is if all registered voters had turned out, then Donald Trump would’ve won the popular vote by 5 points [instead of 1.7 points]. So, I think that a 'we need to turn up the temperature and mobilize everyone' strategy would’ve made things worse." That's from a Democratic analyst, not a Republican one.

The Republicans are rubbing their hands together and cackling every time one of you claims "everything is political" or "politics is a duty" because it just helps them win elections.
