If you read the article it actually argues that we shouldn't give up on AOC, despite the lie, because although it was disingenuous, that's just the nature of politicians. She's still one of the best the Dems have got. I don't know why folks are going into deflection and denial mode over it, it was an obvious lie at the time and now it's confirmed. The Dems don't get a free pass here, any more than the orange man.

Nobody complains when I post one of thousands of fact checks on shit Donald trump says, but the Dems are real touchy.

100% agree with you - it's the very definition of reactionary. And in order to buy into the anti-AI argument you have to accept the argument that IP property rights are legitimate, so it's essentially a neo-liberal position. Property rights are the foundation of right wing politics. That's why we have copyleft.

Also I think at this stage we really need to add an instance wide rule that anti-genAI comments on posts containing genAI on this instance will be removed and multiple violations will result in community bans. It's becoming a real problem lately.

This is a discussion for governance. It does nobody any good to allow anti ai warriors to start brigading every post containing so called "ai slop". It's just a new pointless diversion for keyboard warriors to fight over, accomplishing nothing in the process but derailing any meaningful discussion on the content of the OP. There are other ways to fight back against corporate power, such as making access to genAI technology free and open source, like db0s ai horde project.

Move the Golden Rules out of registration application into its own spoiler tag.

I thought of this, but spoilers don’t embed and it would be hard to deal with each language :p

Excellent point.

Two small suggestions:

1. Move the Golden Rules out of registration application into its own spoiler tag.
2. For rule 4, amend to: "No posting anything right-wing, tankie, or crypto related, and no discrimination towards marginalized groups (e.g. LGBTQI+)."

Otherwise looks good.

@db0@lemmy.dbzer0.com Mr. /0 bot having sleepy time?

It's just mass delusion at this stage if anyone believes the democrats will embrace leftism.

Never gonna happen though, sadly. If the Dems ever turn anti corporate I'll happily eat my hat though.

Unfortunately the Democratic establishment is against ranked choice voting just as much as the Republicans, because it would challenge the two party system.

Will never happen though, sadly.

Capitalism? Sure billionaires aren't the only problem, but in a plutocracy they are a good place to start.

We don't have an anti-AI art policy in this community, and remember it's a memes community, not a debating club on the merits or harms of gen-AI.

At least Proton isn't a scammy company compared to most other free VPNs. And they still allow port forwarding on paid plans, so they are quite a good choice for torrenting. I think Proton and Mullvad are probably the most recommended options around here.

That'll be up to the GenP mods to sort out once they get settled in, might take a little while.

Tagen = Days

Or caught in the rain even

Just waiting for the yptb post about this lol. It's as though they like the abuse.

This is a lefty memes community for leftists. It's supposed to be chill. It's not a place for Democrats to come and argue politics. So fuck off.
