It wouldn't be okay if Trump and ICE were doing this shit to "criminals" either.

You don't lose your humanity because you did something that society decided was proscribed, particularly given that a majority of those things are entirely arbitrary. Most crimes are poverty driven, not violent.

I can understand asking for nuance in these discussions, but deliberately muddying the water by bringing up automation tools that people understand are not generative AI and asking for a middle ground is disingenuous. The nuanced position is that people are roundly rejecting the tech, respect that.
"Surely there's a middle ground here?" The CEO of Helldivers 2 studio Arrowhead says people "jump to extreme takes" when debating generative AI, and that there needs to be more nuance in the discussion.

My annual reminder that Andy Pettitte took PEDs and lied about it multiple times, giving half-truths each time new information turned up that he could not deny.

Which is to say that you should ignore anyone who supports his Hall of Fame case while knocking Manny, A-Rod, etc. for PED use/dishonesty.

Left: Everyone should have health care, homes, and rights

Right: we love violently abusing children

Centrists: to me, these things are equally bad

Reminder!

All Kamala had to do to beat Trump was stop partnering in genocide.

She chose genocide.

This should be instructive. The democratic tent does not have room in it for communists, it does not have room in it for socialists, they will do everything they can to defeat you if you are even the meanest, behindhand reformist demsoc, but if you're a nazi they will welcome you with open arms.
Raskin: We are a big tent. We must be a huge, vast tent. I say this is a party that’s got room for Marjorie Taylor Greene if she wants to come over.

Dems: Mamdani is too radical for our taste. Plus someone said he's antisemitic. And that name is scary to us! We need to keep him out.

Dems, 1 week later: Look lots of people have tattoos like that

Also many of the so called NO votes were not no votes. They supported the move to reopen and are glad to have those who supported cloture do so. Now they can make their little posts on social media and credulous voters will postback: 'thanks to my Senator for standing up.' Pure WWF.
It's just that they already voted to move this forward in the only vote that mattered. Today's vote only needs 50 so the Dems can now vote no and pretend that they didn't advance it when they already did.

It really does feel like they went “well of course standing up to Trump will help us win the election but after that we can give up” and about half the democrats in the Senate nodded along and decided which eight were going to have to look like goofballs
weirdly honest messaging from the breakaway mod/institutionalist leaders who blew up the party strategy

they're explicitly giving up. "It wasn't working so we quit" that's the message

I continue to think that maybe a bunch of men, many of whom were literal child rapists, who thought that it was cool and normal to own other human beings, weren't omniscient when it comes to designing a government and maybe it's okay to change a few things

What did you think they would do to you after you told them genocide was okay?
You watched them sponsor the terror and slaughter of the people of Gaza. You saw it livestreamed on your phone.
You saw children carrying their siblings' body parts in bags.

And you sent them donations and endorsed them.

No Democrat unwilling to get rid of Schumer is actually willing to fight for anything.
I got back to my office after the vote last night and recorded this. There's no way to sugarcoat what happened. And my fear is that Trump gets stronger, not weaker, because of this acquiescence. I'm angry - like you. But I choose to keep fighting.

Amazing moment in time right now where people who yelled at us for sticking to genocide as a red line are now also disgusted with Democrats and threatening not to vote for them. So your health insurance becoming more expensive was your red line?

This is a bad deal for Americans.

Voters turned out in record numbers last wk to elect Democrats believing they would fight for working families.

We urge Senate Dems to vote NO on the reported GOP budget package, which fails to address the devastating health care crisis.
