The GOP is lying. They are distracting from their failures to address the health care crisis that they created.

Chubb insurance can't claim to be a "steward of the earth" while insuring methane terminals that hurt people and planet. Chubb: it's match point and the ball is in your court. 🎾 Listen to communities and stop insuring Freeport LNG NOW! #ChubbAtTheOpen #USopen

Whatever momentary use it may appear to have, the real goal of "AI" is to strip you of your skills, leaving you helpless.

The Nahuas of pre-Invasion Mesoamerica warned their children not to neglect the skills that make life livable and worth living.

No crowns. No thrones. No kings.

Those are principles America was founded upon.

On June 14, let’s stand together again to remind Trump and all of our fellow Americans that we don’t do kings in this country: www.nokings.org?SQF_SOURCE=i...

Two years ago I went on TV and said exactly this: The AI panic cycle was a marketing campaign by known billionaire failures, ultimately an excuse to revenge-fire workers with no immediate replacement.

I literally said "The agita around AI is deeply cultural." Me no have TV job shortly thereafter.

We’re eliminating programs that save millions of people from disease

And ending a lot of research that has cured diseases and will cure more

Because we need to funnel resources into AI

Because someday it may be able to figure out cures for disease

Do I have that right?

i and many people on Bluesky sub to the aimod blocklist so if there are any libs making "good points" with generative AI they are absolutely limiting their reach when they do
I’m begging the libs to stop using ai generative images to make their point because it completely undermines it😭 like I also want to make fun of the bad people but that ain’t it

The Trump admin isn’t just slashing government—it’s waging a war on kids. From cutting child abuse investigations to shutting down Head Start and gutting child support enforcement, this cruelty is deliberate. For what? Tax cuts for rich people.

The administration is quietly putting America’s children at risk by cutting funds and manpower for investigating child abuse, enforcing child support payments, providing child care and much more.

It is difficult for me to convey how profoundly unsurprised I was reading this article, which is about the world's richest and most famous entrepreneur threatening to deport his employees for pointing out a potentially fatal safety issue with his car company's brakes

The full quote from RFK, Jr. is truly disgusting and this is 100% him calling for institutionalization of autistic people. This is horrifying.

I often think this as people who work for our government carry out illegal or immoral orders.

They can't _all_ be Trump appointees and sycophants. They are normal people burying their own morals. We need everyone with a shred of decency to stand up to this.

It's more than just this. It's been a goal of Republicans to destroy education for normal people, esp. at the college level, where students learn to think empirically.

An uneducated populace is easily led, and swayed by emotions and prejudices.

The thing conservatives actually believe is that middle class people should not get university educations, which should be reserved for the children of the ruling class. Poorer kids should be shoved down into servile roles rather than compete with the wealthy's children for prestigious ones.
I wrote this already yesterday, but between this, ending financial assistance, and ending research overheads, I'm not sure American parents are ready for the real-real tuition fees.
