"Trying to 'engage' with fascism is like trying to have an intimate emotional relationship with a running chainsaw. The very act of framing fascism as a reasonable partner for dialogue is an act of propaganda that validates and normalizes fascism."
Good read on the utter failure of corporate media:
It would be an objective good for the world if Donald Trump died tonight and not a second later.

When it was slow to write code, it was slow to accumulate technical debt. What is it about LLMs that won't result in accumulating technical debt even faster than before?

Well, it happens they were doing exactly that.

Good. I don't give a shit if people think it's performative or late to the game or whatever. Every damn celebrity in the country should be using their platform to push back against fascism.
