You know you could have responded to something I said instead of essentially going: “nuh uh!” And spamming a bunch of links.
Like, do you want to have a conversation or do you just want to vommit garbage in response?
I explained to you how Lenin used the word to refer to the capitalist class and WHY the capitalist class was the “middle class” in Tsarist Russia. Do you want to discuss that? Do you have a counter argument? Or do you just Google “Lenin/stalin bad” and copy and paste a bunch of random links you clearly did not even read.
Like, gee, I can’t wait to read allthatsinteresting.com. I’m sure that will tell me more about Lenin than reading the actual books he wrote. Glad I don’t read books because I have allthatsinteresting.com!!!
You seem to be confusing the meaning of “middle class” of bourgeoisie. This did not refer to what we think of today as “middle class”. This was in reference to a pre-revolutionary fuedal societies like Tsarist Russia. The “Upper class” being the structures of the monarch. The middle class being the bourgeoisie (the capital owning class). And the lowest class the proletariat (working class).
Obviously when we use bourgeoisie today we do not have a Monarchy. So it is still referring to the capitalist class. Revolutions were fought against monarchs that were replaced by the bourgeoisie (capitalist class). Lenin believed that instead of having a revolution to capitalism from fuedalism, that Russia could transition from a fuedal to socialist society and skip the rule of the bourgeoisie.
Lenin was not “targeting” what we think of today as “the middle class”. If someone told you that without explaining the above history they were either lying or ignorant.
Billionaires are by definition Bourgeoisie as their wealth is earned by ownership of the means of production and not from a wage as workers are. That’s why people like me still use the term “Bourgeoisie” today specifically to avoid confusion with what “middle class” means today. The bourgeoisie is a well defined term by Marxist-Leninist to mean “the capitalist class”.
Yikes at this being downvoted. You’re literally just saying “Haha it’s ok to deport people illegally as long as they voted for Trump!” is a bad take.
Like, you can enjoy the irony and still have some actual principles.
The software likely disengaged because the wall was so close it could not function. It would be the same as if an object suddenly covered up the camera while you were driving. It would turn off the autopilot/FSD or whatever they call it. (At least I hope it would)
This is likely what happened. The software hit an invalid state that defaulted to disengaging the autopilot feature. Likely hit an impossible state as the camera could no longer piece the “wall” parts of the road with the actual road as it got too close.
Likely an error condition occured that would happen in the same way if an object suddenly covered the camera while driving. It would be even more concerning if the autopilot DIDN’T disengage at that point.
Excuse me. He’s also a top ranked PoE player that doesn’t know how open his inventory.
I love the justification for only using cameras is “humans do it”. Like, are we not supposed to use any technology that humans can’t replicate? Maybe we shouldn’t fly planes because humans can’t fly. It’s such a dumb reason.
The irony here is that violence is a necessary action when the bourgeoisie (Billionaires) leaves the working class no other option. But what he’s saying is that state violence is justified to maintain the status quo.
Sure. But maybe in your head for a minute. Saying your position is “haha that stupid immigrant and her husband got what was coming to them” is pretty gross imo.
If you think the “boot” is a Trump voter then you missed the point entirely. I don’t know what else to say. And simplifying them into “bad people” like the world is a comic book movie is anti left and anti materialist thought.
I also didn’t equate you with the KKK. I used what you would call an analogy to explain my perspective. An analogy in which I wasn’t even comparing you with the KKK. In that analogy you would have been someone that laughed as a KKK member was denied healthcare.
If you couldn’t even get that clear point of my comment then you should probably go back and read it with a fraction of charity. Because you kind of just responded with nonsense and gave no thought into the point I was actually making. One that wasn’t even very critical of you. I admitted myself that that “karma” is satisfying. But there is a difference between our thoughts and our material actions. That where dialects is usedul in understanding what is reactionary thought is and where it leads to.
EDIT: Sorry this wasn’t meant to be a novel. If I had more time it would have been shorter.
I understand not feeling bad for THE GUY. But you should absolutely feel bad for his wife. Moral values should not be conditional. I could have an undocumented immigrant cus me out and say “TRUMP IS AWESOME” and I’d still not want that guy to be deported for no reason. I know its a slightly satisfying “you got what was coming to you”. But being leftist in any sense means staying true to your convictions and not falling for this type of reactionary response no matter how satisfying it is.
I’ve used this as an example before.
I want even KKK members to get free healthcare in the US. Because as much as I hate KKK members my leftist principles tell me that right wing reactionary ideas thrive in poor material conditions. Conditions on these fundamental leftist principles will not stand. The “got what was coming to them” response is absolutely a reactionary idea. These are conditions of revenge and not conditions of justice. They have no place in left wing principles.
You can absolutely enjoy the slight sense of irony and satisfaction from this snippet. But, at the end of the day, you’re not saying anything different then “let’s deport these immigrants because X” just like the right is. Its the same as saying “these brown people deserve to be treated badly because they didn’t vote for Harris”. It’s insane reactionary ideas masking itself as leftism.
How is that sarcasm? It’s exaggerating if it’s anything. Did the meaning of sarcasm change?
Or maybe he’s right. Maybe it’s sarcasm because he intended to escalate the war.
Trump: I’m totally gonna end that war in 1 day. Yep. Gonna end that war and definitely not escalate it. /s
Like, THAT would be sarcasm. So I guess he’s admitting he had no intention to end the war? Obviously not. He just doesn’t know what sarcasm means apparently.
The comment your replying to (or meant to) has to be being purposely dense. There is obviously a difference between being a communist, having a communist party take power, and “achieving” communism. No one with a brain would think the OOP was talking about the last use of the word in that sentence.
It’s a common “dumb guy that thinks they’re being smart” take because they haven’t actually ever read a book in their life. They just read the definition of communism once.
Communist can run a society that is not yet achieved communism. Not sure if you’re being purposely dense or not.
Also, currency does not define a society as capitalist. We’ve have currency long before capitalism ever existed.
Yes. That’s my point. But people that hate AI hate it because of how it is being used under capitalism. For a lot of people “it is easier image the end of the world than the end of capitalism”. Hence why they hate AI. They don’t hate it inherently.
Technological advances are supposed to improve peoples lives. Allow them to work less and enjoy things more often.
It’s why we invented a wheel. It’s why we invented better weapons to hunt with.
“Tech for techs sake” is enjoying the technology and ignoring its impact on people’s lives.
When a society creates a massive sum of information accessible to all, trains new technology on data created by that society, and then a small subset of that society steals and uses that data to profit themselves and themselves alone; I don’t know what else you call that but exploitation.
Advances in AI should make our lives better. Not worse. Because of our economic model we have decided that technological advances no longer benefit everyone, but hurt a majority of the population for the profits of a few.
The world doesn’t allow us to disconnect tech and capitalism. Why should we be happy about the tech just for the techs sake? People aren’t adverse to the tech. They are against its use to further our exploitation.
I know he still has a lot of dick riders but, honestly, I think him streaming Path of Exile live really hurt him with the demographic that was his main fans. White young to middle age males that play video games.
It became the perfect analogy to use to explain to that group of people why actual engineers and scientists know he’s an idiot. He could hide behind criticism because the average person doesn’t know enough about those things to know what he doesn’t know.
But when all the gaming channels started mocking him for not knowing the games UI and not knowing his (paid for) character at rank 3 had some of THE BEST gear. Dude confused “level required” vs gear item level.
It was just such a great example to show people how much of a complete fraud he was. At least people in that demographic. You didn’t even need to play PoE, if you ever played a game you could tell he had no idea what he was doing in his supposedly top ranked player in the world.
Though you still had people defending it, I think for the casual Elon “fan” in that demographic it was pretty eye opening.
It also says a lot about him that he thought he could get away with faking that. He fakes all his other achievements.
They are right when it comes to understanding LLMs the LLM definitely understands LLMs better than they do. I’m sure an AI could have a perfect IQ test. But has a really hard time drawing a completely full glass of wine. Or telling me how many R’s are in the word strawberry. Both things a child could do.
