Did you notice that there were trans folks in that mess? Was that AI just being AI?

Yes, I was going to post a screen shot here with a sacrastic comment like "so Trump now supports trans community" but erm, didn't. My first guess was it slipped through as it is a quick shot and I had to take a second look to be sure, but maybe it's some n-level trolling, I just can't tell anymore.

"We have to do more than just fight the firehose of bad stuff. Instead, we must put forward a positive vision of what we are for, especially in terms of kitchen table issues for the tens of millions of Americans struggling to make ends meet.
These folks believe that the system is rigged against them—and they’re right. But the Trump/Musk onslaught of anti-worker, anti-farmer, pro-corporate actions are an opportunity to offer a plan of our own to unrig the system most Americans hate."

4405"This isn’t greenlighting discrimination at all," Holt claimed
This is exactly what this is going to do. Like the dude cares that much about women. His whole argument for the necessity of this bill is to protect women. As if a white straight guy from Iowa cares about women.
I'm sure we'll see more bills in state houses and even the federal government stripping more groups from the civil rights act until it's rendered meaningless. That's the goal of this fascist party and the are totally emboldened now.

4406The fact that commodore Musk and his lap dog are taking actions they know will cripple the economy and lead to a depression while simultaneously targeting the FDIC should concern anyone who has a bank account. Better start stuffing cash in your mattress.

Re: Politics
4408I saw in a feed yesterday that NYT interviewed Curtis Yarvin, and also Jon Stewart has agreed to interview Elon Musk on certain terms. Why legitimize these fascist fools at all? Do journalists or left-wing influencers really think they'll be spared if they succeed?

4409Jon Stewart has really fallen off.
If he'd stayed in retirement he could have gone out on a high note. Now it looks as if his final legacy is going to be the legitimization of fascists.

Re: Politics
4410I wouldn't go that far. He mostly covers stuff and interviews people you'd want to hear from, though he does bemoan bureaucracy quite a bit. Some of that comes from personal experience helping 9/11 victims' families, but Elon Musk does not belong in the 'efficiency' conversation one bit. I'm sure he'll nod along with Stewart's concerns then go right back (with the help of his virgin squad) to cutting programs that prevent outbreaks in Africa.JohnAlbert wrote: Fri Feb 28, 2025 8:24 am Jon Stewart has really fallen off.
