You mean deficit? The Democrat who just won won the democratic primary. Yes, of course a Democrat was going to win that.

They’re either afraid of political retaliation or they’re complicit. So yeah, their popularity is way down. They need to show that they can actually be relevant because right now everyone just sees them as classic translated Godzilla movies. Disasters whose mouths don’t match their words.

Democrat poll numbers are low because they’re all talk and not achieving anything. They let republicans control from a minority position for over a decade, and now that they’re in a minority position, they’re letting republicans continue to run rampant.

Every one of them is a victim, as far as they’re concerned.

For sure. You don’t need AI to spellcheck. You don’t need AI to grammar check. You don’t need AI to reduce your linguistic capacity. You don’t need AI to create your own analogies. Art is art, and it need not be perfect to be true.

His base believed these things before he did. Why would it hurt him with them? The other republicans, whether or not they agree, can’t speak out against it or they lose his voting base. The republicans created trumpism. They can’t be afraid of it now or they’ll look weak.

I should probably finish setting up that profile and do things like add a profile image.

Follow the law and you can deport people to their country of origin when they break it. The law says everyone, including immigrants, is entitled to due process.

If we really want to support police, we need to stop escalating, and get them back to doing the same. We need to move toward a society that treats everyone with respect and dignity instead of suspicion and disdain. We’ll never have that with the party of fear in power.

The man supports police in the same way he supports the church: in words, but not in action. He holds up an upside down Bible and uses it to attract attention and profit, but he doesn’t believe anything.

That said, AI poses a serious skill and knowledge danger. The argument “all we really need now is senior devs. The junior dev jobs are now obsolete” means we have nobody training to be senior devs. We can’t afford to outsource all of our knowledge to machines, lest we become idiocracy.

UBI + Universal Healthcare takes care of so many problems the US economy has. Done correctly, it also removes much of the incentive the medical industry has to hike their prices. Insurance and medicine have no right being for-profit industries.

It is what many of them seem to want. There seems to be this belief among them that if a Republican President does it, it’s right, so nobody should speak up against it, but if anyone else does it’s bad, so everyone should be against it. This is an extension of that.

Honestly, they might. Which is why we should tax the expatriation of money over a certain amount.

I think that will severely hinder profits. We’ll see a dip real fast when that happens.

The stock market is designed for that - it’s pretty resilient. Until it’s not. Once people can’t afford enough things, the market collapses because profits collapse.

The stock market doesn’t care about people at all. Only about revenue. It’s why tech has been doing so much weird stuff. They’re just trying to increase profits and care zero about long term or user experience.

I can. Profits are up. When costs go up, there’s usually a proportional increase in price over cost. If wages don’t go up to match, that’s just a ton more profit.
If something costs $5 and sells for $10, costs go up $1 (10%), prices don’t just go up $1. They go up $2 to $12. Revenue score!
