AltNPS stole this from Regina Medina's article in MPR. It's basically word for word.
The second paragraph is LITERALLY word for word, with a single change.

I’m sorry but people talking about talent as an unfair quality that needs to be Harrison Bergeroned away by AI have exactly the same energy as people saying it’s unfair that attractive people have more people attracted to them and the government should legislate their right to a hot wife
