I’ll acknowledge my comment was rude, you are expressing humility now that wasn’t present in your original assertive message. You hopefully have a better understanding now.

This misinformation about national debt that you unintentionally spread is used by conservatives around the world to deny people services

Some people when faced with an overly simple explanation doubt their own understanding and try to see why experts and academics say otherwise.

Others assume they know better than the experts and everyone is an idiot but them.

Maybe you know a lot about a topic, and see others choose one of those paths when questioning your area of expertise.

Which kind of person do you want to be?

One thing we overlook in ideological debates is that most forms of socialism and communism would have no use for advertising and marketing. Imagine all this effort going to productive endeavors and having an IRL adblock.

May my last online purchase be a beret.

While this is true, it’s not difficult to verify. You can inspect the network traffic through your router from that device and see whether it’s communicating more often or with larger data packets while you’re talking near but not to it.

That could be obfuscated with a powerful enough device that’s able to maintain the user profile locally and by sending the full profile each time, or by trickling the information out bit by bit as part of a regular heartbeat traffic, but that would require more expensive hardware and would eat up a lot more bandwidth.

Not impossible, but not undetectable either. I’m willing to bet that studies have been done.

Skepticism is good but without thinking through it, experimenting, or doing research to back it up it’s just paranoia. Conversely you could say my trust that others would have looked into it is naive.

wow I guess 2/3 of Democrats are now Trump supporters according to the people who have been bullying those that want Democrats to do better

You’re in a fantasy world fighting straw men of your own creation, dividing and attacking amongst those that oppose Trump. You’re a “vote blue no matter who” boiling frog who is more eager to attack the people demanding more from both parties than to stand up alongside your leftist brothers and sisters fighting fascism.

You’re a vote-obsessed political agnostic who doesn’t understand that progress and political action don’t start and end at upvotes and paper ballots. You’re crying with your tail between your legs waiting for the fascist to let you vote again.

Your contributions aren’t needed or useful. Your divisive and confrontational attitude towards those left of you is helping Trump at least as much if not more than those you’re criticizing.

If an Arab American or someone with actual loved ones who are dying in Palestine or someone who otherwise can’t bring themselves to vote for genocide enablement chose to vote for neither red nor blue they’re not my enemy, Trump and his kind and people like you who enable Democrat complacency and the ratchet effect are my enemy.

If you cowards joined those you mock in ACTUAL political action the Democrats wouldn’t all be neutered 100 year olds.

Taking opportunities like this to make disingenuous comments to feel smug is psychopath behavior you Internet point chasing degenerate.

Shouldn’t you be hiding in a hole until it’s time to vote again? Let the adults handle the resistance.

don’t dilute the meaning of the word fascist by using it in this way. It doesn’t just mean “bad.” Fighting for equality is exactly the fight against fascism.

lol

how many iterations until you get a minute of video you’re happy with?

lol what a fucking stupid thing to say

That’s a fair point, improving the subscription feed would be in their best interest for the people who use it, even if that number is low.

The problems with that feed which he touched on in the video are pretty significant. If you subscribe to channels that put out lots of content and ones that rarely do, it becomes much harder to use.

One thing he didn’t mention is also that it’s not conducive to discovering and gradually catching up on the back catalogue of a new channel, which is something the home feed excels at.

I’m sure YouTube prefers you use the home feed and has no plans to improve subscriptions, and there are real issues with it, so it’ll probably continue to decline.

In the off chance that domestic producers can make those goods at a price cheaper than overseas_cost+25% guess what they’ll charge? The same high price.

I didn’t think your point was as shallow as “different people can have different opinions”

I fail to see how this invalidates that someone can hold both the position that current AI is a waste of electricity and pumping out garbage while pointing out the potential social and economic disruption of future iterations of the technology.

If your point was simply that some people hold one position, others hold the other, and others still hold both. Then… thanks? I think we can also call this a waste of electricity.

And so you see people that couldn’t stomach genocide support as your enemy? As with the trolley problem, the positive action diverting the trolley can mean active participation in the outcomes. I feel the same as you about the “correct” choice in the last election, but I’m not going to mock and belittle people who were losing their loved ones as a result of Democrat policies choosing not to partake in the election.

If your choices are Hitler and half Hitler you should have been throwing Molotov cocktails years ago.

It seems you’re firmly entrenched and going out of your way to see a contradiction. I’ll let you be.

Consider that there’s no widespread double-think happening and it could just be in your own head at this point.

You and people like you are more at fault for allowing the Democrats to get away with the absolute fucking minimum (“they wouldn’t deport protestors!”) for election upon election upon election upon election. If you and all of the other do nothings joined the voices trying to keep at least one of the two parties from being complete and utter shit, that would be more impactful than your 5 minutes of political action every 4 years to tick the less bad box.

Turn your attention towards making change instead of feeling smug ffs. You’re the problem.
