I didn't need some Chinese campaign hatred was my gut reaction.

Actually, at first, for like a week, I was OK with it. Then the affects started piling up. My boss (warehouse middle manager) is AI coding apps to FUCK ME at work (figuratively fuck me ofc, but he's a dickhead. Claims to be communist too [and I'm not even, as unpopular as that is here] and meanwhile he's like "here's some anti-worker bullshit that will help strangle you, isn't it neat, I made it with AI! The same AI that for some reason I think won't replace me first." Fucking kys. I work with the actual product, he tells people "do this." His precious AI will take his job 2y before mine.)

I'm not even on the environmental side of it, though that is a big concern and useful ammo to me being in the anti- position, I cannot stand the dumbing down of humanity, and the murder robots that are officially now a deployed reality as of last week, and the enhanced surveillance. All of that is a reality in my daily life (besides the murder robots but OH BOY if you don't think that's coming to a town near you..), I do not need propaganda to hate what I can freely observe that I hate.
