Hi
Sad part is that the language used in the article is a massive improvement. The bar is this low
They actually named Israel, normally it was just “shots were reportedly fired” or something along those lines.
They also use “Palestinians” instead of “Gazans”. This has been a huge editorial no no up until now.
They also switched from " Hamas run health ministry" to “Gaza health ministry”.
New York Crimes earning it’s nickname
Yea the average person just doesn’t care though, they either know this isn’t true, or they see Israel doing horrific crimes while getting billions of dollars and weapons and just don’t care about being seen as antisemitic. There’s also the Zionists but thats just preaching to the choir.
The second one is way more common, I’ve had to have a few talks with family members about that.
ABC News just covered the shooting, looks like they are running the standard Zionism = Judaism approach. This has been completely failing to run defense for Israeli actions among the public.
I don’t think this will turn into a Luigi situation, mainly because it doesn’t affect Americans directly, but I do think the approach will alienate more random Americans.
Adding to one reasons that China didn’t develop capitalism in the same way as Europe.
Confucianism played a huge role both culturally and politically in China at the time. There was a civil service exam that you needed to take to get into government positions, and almost all commoners would have experience with Confucius philosophy. And Confucius considered making a profit to be something that petty men do.
I think it’s one of the major reasons that the merchant classes never held the same sway with the the government as they did in Europe.
Yea, that’s definitely one of the worst aspects of AI is how confidently incorrect it can be. I had this issue using deep seek and had to turn on the mode where you can see what it’s thinking and often it will say something like.
I can’t analyze this properly, let’s assume this… Then confidently spits an answer out based on that assumption. At this point I feel like AI is good for 100 level CS students that don’t want to do their homework and that’s about it
Not like those Chinese, now they are iron tigers, real tigers, and all they had to do was… Nothing.
Yea something that sticks out to me is how much the democratic silicon valley liberal elites are just ideological zealots. They are completely incapable of seeing things outside their own perspective.
Everything is falling down around them and their first instinct is to plug their ears and when that doesn’t work and they have to recognize an issue they just offer more neoliberalism as a solution
