Yeeeeep. The idea of swapping one imperialist crusher of human rights for another because of the embarrassment that the US has become is too stupid for anyone other than influencers to bite off on. I hope the next generations become better about seeing through propaganda like this.

Love seeing this when it’s posted but that one about oil prices is aging like milk lately, hahaha.

I’m sorry, he was adroit a few months ago? Did I miss this?

I read the release on this. Assuming those Sha keys actually pan out, they’re not really wrong about calling it too dangerous to just sell access to.

I think a lot of people will read the headline and roll their eyes or call it marketing, and maybe some if it is marketing, but from the examples they demonstrated, I certainly wouldn’t trust the public to handle the new model responsibly.

People can’t even handle having the generative slop machines without making CSAM and revenge porn.

I actually found it also. I didn’t wanna give traffic to the site, but I just couldn’t see anyone actually showing it.

I can’t find where he’s said this, just reports that he had. Does anyone have a link to it?

I’m not quite to the end of the video and I’m actually learning quite a bit I didn’t realize as I go along, but I don’t know that I can quite see the covert malice he’s attributing to her here. It kinda strikes me as though Natalie just doesn’t understand all that much about the situation and is shooting for damage control, both at home and abroad. As he points out, that’s absolutely worth criticism and plays into Israel’s whole strategy, but I don’t know if that’s quite the same thing as what he’s calling her on the surface. Being ignorant and scared to engage with a topic you don’t understand is chicken shit and harmful, but I don’t know if I’d be so black and white about it.

Still, dude makes some pretty good points and I’m glad you linked me to this because I hadn’t really thought about some of the ways he describes the conflict and solutions forward. If anything, I think I’m just realizing how ignorant I am about the entirety of the conflict as well, but especially how things are framed when talking about the conflict (re: his points about how Natalie spoke about the conflict).

I’m always torn on stuff like this. On the one hand, it’s pretty clear that Natalie is against what’s happening and making a bit of gallows humor about the situation.

On the other hand, you obviously shouldn’t make a comment like that to people who are directly experiencing genocide, it’d be insanely insensitive.

It feels very leftist infighty, but I can totally see being upset by a comment like that from a personal standpoint. Does any of this matter? Is this just the friction of existing in such different circumstances and having a global communication network? Or is there actually something to pull from this?

That’s what I was thinking. I’m curious what the intended meaning is because I’m super hung up on “people sell apples/other fruit/produce”.
