It’s like saying the Republicans are right that you should be scared of immigrants and then being surprised when people vote out of fear for the person who will hurt those immigrants more. They didn’t campaign on mass deportation as one has claimed, but they did justify people’s fears of immigrants.
Revolution sounds exhausting. Blaming voters means I can simply wait for other people to change by learning the right lessons even though they never seem to.
It’s not just protesting though, we use it to train and organize people so later we can respond when the time comes. We need a diversity of tactics which is why I don’t criticize how people protest anymore, as long as you are causing good trouble then you are not the problem.
That was just from Trump’s first term. Fuck.
My daycare closed for a day so they could get their passports “just in case”. This shit is infuriating.
If you think critics of wokeness are wrong, then show why. Don’t just insult them and pretend that counts as insight.
Why would someone take the time to explain something to someone arguing in bad faith? Sounds like a foolish endeavor.
I’ll leave you with the words from OP elsewhere in this thread because it equally applies to you:
Thanks, but I didn’t ask that and your assertion is based on your own bias/opinion
Yes I had an inflammatory response. I honestly don’t perceive OP as making a good faith argument when they say “negative effects of wokeness”. It’s a thought terminating cliche.
Okay then, swap out AI with wokeness, it still doesn’t come to the level of a “worldview”. It is still an observation.
everyone who disagrees with my worldview is a bot
I hardly consider my opinion on AI a “worldview”. It is an observation that generative AI use in decision making and creativity reduces cognitive activity. Yes I asked OP to disprove me in an “ad-hominem” manner though. I guess we violently agree on that?
Not really… AI bots are bad at providing value because they have no values and don’t understand context. You can deliver a scathing reproach that has value as long as it fits the context and reflects your values. But do you consider your response an ad-hominem?
You are right in that I never answered the question asked. However, I would not say the conversation is a nonstarter, I asked you a question and you answered it well. That sounds like a conversation to me…
You never replied to the question in the post.
I think you might be hallucinating.
Seriously. Men are perceived as dangerous by default and that influences how we think about solving problems.
What is your intention with this response? Do you expect me to suddenly give you something you value as a response? That would be silly based on the conversation this far.
How is your response any different than what you are complaining about?
Edit: this is rhetorical, I am actually not interested in a response. Oh the irony.
I’m not even from the Lemmy world instance. I’m from the instance that specifically rails against AI slop. Thank you for being silly.
I’m convinced people railing against wokeness are just AI bots at this point. OP, can you prove you are not a stochastic parrot without saying something silly?
I wonder how much of it is vibe coded at this point…
There are about ~3000 billionaires. Or a billionaire every minute.
That is a good point, and I think the difficult part is the initial change. Once you connect to a revolutionary/vanguard community with it’s own cultural riches on the other end then it is as you say, the less exhausting option.
