I've never seen this critique on norms made so succinctly and accessible. Also, I'm fairly convinced that people who react in the way that's illustrated in the commentary are not self aware enough to understand why they feel this way.
This is actually quite brilliant, up to and including the final sentence 🔥

The Singularitarian fantasists who want us to elevate machines to consciousness are not interested in the happiness of all beings.
They want to degrade the biological body to a mere vessel, one they can discard. It's bunk theology for men who believe they're too smart and special to die.

This is narcissism masquerading as philosophy — the technophile elite are not recognizing a new soul in AI, they're falling in love with their creation, staring at their own reflection in a digital pool.
It is the ultimate in solipsism and has its roots in a pathological fear and denial of death.

Wow — Senators Van Hollen, Smith, Murphy, Sanders, Warren, Markey, Merkley, Heinrich have created an official internal "Fight Club."
They're challenging Schumer & Gillibrand's leadership, arguing the party is using an old, corporate-friendly playbook insufficient to take on Trump or win elections.

We're seeing some confusion about this, so let's talk about it.
Home Depot has been complicit as ICE snatches day laborers out of parking lots. At minimum Home Depot is turning a blind eye, and there have also been rumors they may be more actively complicit. Organizers including #weaintbuyingit 🧵

In Monrovia, California, protesters are purchasing 17¢ ICE scrapers from Home Depot and immediately returning them to create long lines and slow down the entire store. Their aim is to disrupt sales and convey a message opposing ICE raids occurring in their neighborhood.

I just squeaked by being hit by all of this. I got my masters before the butchering of DoE and loan fuckery. But with these changes, I wonder how it will affect everyone out in the workforce/seeking employment. Will this become an excuse to lower salaries since our degrees have been devalued?
The DoE has reclassified numerous health professional and other degrees, limiting access to federal student loan programs eligible for the higher OBBBA loan caps from thousands to a few hundred.
As ALWAYS, this is about $$.
We're about to become REALLY "great"...

The misogynistic fucks in the admin are trying to make it so that grad school certifications in female-dominated professions (nursing, therapy, education) no longer count as “professional degrees” & you can’t get loans to go to grad school.

Just wow. It's never been more apparent, it's a death cult.
Even in the house of horrors that is vaccine-preventable illnesses, polio stands out as particularly terrifying.
But the darker chapters of public health history do not seem to faze anti-vaccine activists. Now, it’s polio’s turn to be downplayed.

The anti-vax movement's wildest claim yet: Polio wasn't so bad
Add this to vaccines make you magnetic, cause AIDS, and measles is not a big deal.
