"I don't want to hurt you, stop fighting back, you're hurting yourself" is literally the language of an abuser.
One of the most banally horrifying things about this administration is that there is no subtext, no dog whistles, no need for interpretive work. It's all just explicit racism and cruelty.

There are two bills advancing which will strip worker’s benefits. It is called the Fair Tax Act. The two bills will eliminate pensions and benefits. Every employee will become a 1099 employee and your taxes will increase.

The purpose of education is to provide people with critical thinking skills. The impact of AI (if not the specific intention, which it probably is) is to remove that, and create people reliant on algorithmic dogma owned by those who control the message. AI is the perfect tool of the fascist.
I talked to 15 teachers/professors about how AI and ChatGPT is ruining their lives:

Teachers Are Not OK
AI, ChatGPT, and LLMs "have absolutely blown up what I try to accomplish with my teaching."

Shaun King has the perfect grift. He knows that most white people don't know black people, so they're never going to hear that Shaun is a conman from the folks who know. As long as he pops up everytime theres a social justice issue he can keep playing activist.
Jesus, I'm not even lying to you...
I just got an email from Shaun King asking me to buy a bag of flour for Palestinians with him.
