Absolutely brilliant piece about the Left's TOTAL blindness on AI. Their dismissal of AI risks mirrors how climate deniers treat CO2.
Will probably get a lot of nastiness for this on Bluesky, but I guess that's part of the same problem.

The left is missing out on AI
As a movement, it has largely refused to engage seriously with AI, ceding debate about a threat and opportunity to the right

What should have been a unifying community event has now become another senseless tragedy.

History's biggest moral revolutions didn't just happen from obligation, they happened because people cared about their legacy. Vanity isn't pure, but it's powerful.

![A sample script that says:
My name is [name] from [City, State].
I'm calling to tell Senator [name] to vote no on the resolution to undo the 20-year mining ban and protect the Boundary Waters.
The Boundary Waters is America's most visited wilderness, and a place I value and want to see protected. This resolution would open up the headwaters to toxic copper mining by a foreign company.
Once again, I'm asking Senator [name] to stand up for public lands by protecting the Boundary Waters and vote no on the resolution to undo the 20-year mining ban.
Thank you.
