Donald Trump And The New Tech Oligarchs |

[@FAS1948]

I still cannot see any fault in 'from each according to ability, to each according to need', but in the USA and UK, corporations rule governments and increasing inequality is seen as an ultimate good: it will end badly.

[@OutlawedSpank]

Your idea falls apart when you actually have to implement it.

[@ruaraidhmorrison5879]

You can't see any fault from it? You genuinely think it's perfect and has no flaws? Yet hasn't worked anywhere yet. Why do you think posting propagandist theoretical drivel gives you some sort of moral superiority?

[@jakbak-y6f]

​@@ruaraidhmorrison5879what your suggestion for the governments to rule. Be aware of drivel.

@jakbak-y6f it can't fit into 1 KZbin comment. That's maybe the problem with these slogans, they're invariably drivel.

The whole world needs to act, for anything meaningful when it comes to climate change. Is Aaron more comfortable with every country producing power through renewables or refining uranium?

[@puxkx5827]

27:47 No one understands this better than Trump and his supporters, which is why they are strongly advocating for the adoption of the Unitary Executive Theory. This theory argues that Congress cannot restrict the president's authority over the executive branch, as the Constitution establishes a hierarchical system that grants the president the highest level of power.

Perhaps the role of a single president is outdated, a democratic ruling committee looks a better option, right now I would give all American made products an extremely wide birth especially because of Trump, Biden and Israel, it's not hatred but wisdom, you should never be punished because you want to make a legal purchase or offer a non harmful legal service

[@Pfth]

Guys! Get real! AI is going to change the world in ways we can hardly even begin to imagine right now - it's going radically alter the job market - and we are right on the cusp of that change. Only a tiny minority of uber-rich oligarchs are going to benefit financially from that, so UBI is going to be essential in the not-so-distant future. UBI is going to be the only lifeline for the jobless in a full-on plutocratic dystopia.

[@za.307]

You missed a point on the silk road. Drugs apart. Child pornography was also a massive commodity on the dark web. It was riddled with CP trading and child exploitation. The founder skirts around it because he wanted to make it look like he was doing something noble. But he was a massive prime mover to allow anything to be traded. He turned a blind eye, so by default was massively complicit. I hope you don't delete this point, like I posted earlier.

[@Ramasita13]

Wrong. Child porn was not available on the Silk Road. Afaik no drugs marketplace has allowed CP. The worst thing available on the SR was guns.

[@chester6343]

There was a specific ban in cp on the silk road. Afaik he was only charged for drug related crimes, and probably money laundering crimes.

[@za.307]

Oh. So, how do you moderate an unmoderated platform. It's a complete oxymoron. An expose on the Silk Road, which showed that it was freely available. My point is that Libertarians like him are full sh!t. You open the corridor for exploitive acts, which undermines their anti-government narrative. Things like CP, you need intervention. So they conveniently ignore it, or says it's "banned".

[@jamietulacz7742]

In any piece on the impact of AI, we need to be covering its potentially devastating impact on the climate. Given that we are now at 1.5C increase already, we can't afford to be putting any more carbon into the atmosphere, AI is very data intensive yet few are talking about this impact

Bedsides, the fundamental requirement for such a process would be systems integration across a multiplicity of different discrete and sometimes ageing systems - always a difficult and error prone activity.

Bastani: you are full of it if you think AI can replace Barbara Ehrenreich's reading of Nickel and Dimed. There is timing and volume in every expression. I have heard others read William James, and can clearly hear mispeakings. I even try to say out loud passages from William James and get it wrong. If you want your book to be heard by us, read it out loud for us.

[@lindseyhaas6639]

I've listened to several authors reading their books and few have got good voices; some are in fact annoying, grating or just not suited (to the point I stopped listening). That's why they're writers and not actors. What AI will do with actors' voices is another topic.

With the extreme wealth line, what would happen to those with wealth already over threshold? Also, if those people are so powerful and influencial as she points out, it's highly doubtful they'd allow something like this (good idea that it is)

[@nicolaford7510]

Money is a system, not an absolute fact. We need an economic system ,urgently, that creates equitable distribution. We are stuck in a mindless paradigm of GDP growth and free markets...a system utterly incapable of solving the problem of growing poverty. Extreme wealth is just a symptom of what is wrong. Really, we need to address the roots...the whole system...which is propelling ua towards climate disaster, sacrifice zones, and hideous, privately owned big tech desperatley trying to extract carbon out of the atmosphere or geoengineer our future whilst making shit loads of money. 🤮

@alfredlear4141 in 2022 Scotland generated more than 100% of its power from renewables, 113% in fact. Albania, Bhutan, DRC, Ethiopia, Paraguay, Nepal and Iceland get all of their power from renewables. Norway is 99% as is Costa Rica.

Those Making Policies , Politicians, Business and Military have to Remember that Their Not Making Policies Just for the Elite, Which has Been the Practice in the Past. The Welfare, Health, Human Need's ,Including Real Education, Not Fake Information or Propaganda. Healthcare That isn't a Scam, Respect For The Masses Not Just the Powerful. Their Need's Considered Their Right and Not Charity. Because They're also Consumer's that Make the Profits for Business. If There's a Less Unequal, Unjust System The Overly Wealthy Won't Need Security Details. They Can Live More Free and Normal Lives Instead of Becoming Zoo Animals that Have to be Stared at Through the Bars of Their Security Cage. The Oligarchs Wouldn't be Disconnected Completely From the Rest of Humanity. They and Their Children Wouldn't Develop Psychological Problems.. Theyll be Happier. And the Masses Wouldn't be Abnormal Fans of Celebrity Culture. Celebrity Worship Promoted on Purpose Among the Masses is a Sick Attitude in Itself. The Fake Structure of Society has to be Reversed. Enlightenment, Education and Strongly Decent Character Being the Goal for Humanity Not Idiocy, Ignorance. Indulgence and Addictions. Justice and Law Enforcement has to be Cleansed of Corruption Like the Rest of the Institutions and Organizations , Not Just in America but Globally. A Lawfully Free Society is Desirable,With Corrupt Practices and Businesses Shut Down.
