  • I feel very reasonably that warrantless searches and seizures while not in uniform and face coverings and no badges IS A BREACH OF THE LAW!!!

    Not to even mention all the countless people that have been disappeared or deported to God knows where with no information given to their families or anything. Just poof gone. No jury, no trial, no proof they did anything wrong, no positive ID they are even who they are. None of it.

    Please explain how any of that could possibly be legal and how any reasonable person wouldn’t consider it evil and terrible and utterly terrifying and dystopian?

    How is everyone NOT upset at how awful this all is?


  • I really liked that one Study? Experiment? Whatever it was that had people program different strategies to play a game for them. It was a “game theory”/“prisoner’s dilemma” type game. The kind where if you play nice you each win a little, but if you play mean you might both lose or you might win a lot.

    Anyway, they made a whole bunch of AI type strategies that would compete and over time, the cutthroat or evil strategies would win in the short term, but over long term the cooperative play nice strategies always prevailed.

    It may or may not be true, but I choose to believe that the best, most efficient, most beneficial strategy is always the one that favors cooperation, mutual aid, and forgiveness over cutthroat, deception, grudges.

    Put another way, fighting and competition wastes more resources than it ever gains, cooperation and sharing is a better strategy.
