Say it after me: Chat GPT is not a search engine. It does not scan the web for information, it just generates statistically likely sentences. You cannot use it a search engine, or as a substitute for searching.
Now. Please never use an LLM for information searches ever again.

NEW: A Harris campaign organizer says senior officials ordered them to erase voters who asked about Gaza—marking emails as “no response” so they’d be removed from outreach. No engagement, no persuasion, just ignored. “The only clowns are the ones who decided to abdicate on this.”

seeing people on twitter complain that MLK allegedly did drugs and liked prostitutes and it is just so obvious to me that “morality” was invented as a distraction from actual harm
like, sorry a dead guy who did a lot for civil rights liked drugs and sex, our president is literally a rapist

Terms like "merit based" & "economically inactive" are ones we must pay attention to.
They're eerily similar to 'useless eaters'. We're labeling those who can't participate in capitalism as expendable.
We've been here before. Nazi Germany targeted disabled people. We can't let it happen again.

One of the NYPD brass said “this isn’t blue bloods” when explaining they can’t just immediately find the guy and I like that years of copaganda have set standards cops can’t meet and might be contributing to people’s correct perception that cops don’t effectively stop crime or find killers.
