Can Germans please explain to me how this party is even allowed to exist. I thought fascist political parties were illegal?
Fuck AI
"We did it, Patrick! We made a technological breakthrough!"
A place for all those who loathe AI to discuss things, post articles, and ridicule the AI hype. Proud supporter of working people. And proud booer of SXSW 2024.
AI, in this case, refers to LLMs, GPT technology, and anything listed as "AI" meant to increase market valuations.
fake anti-fascism, it looks like they didn't learn much.
Germany never really de-Nazified. It was just an act to rejoin the West which the US played along with because of the Cold War. That's why Germany is such an enthusiastic supporter of their Nazi adjacent friends in occupied Palestine.
Pankaj Mishra goes into this in his book "The World After Gaza"
There is not enough political will, because the current government can just point at them as a boogeyman while still enacting fascist policies. Today they will be voting to try to abolish psychotherapy for example. [Edit: They actually passed it and are really proud of themselves for completely gutting social welfare]
We did Patrick, we saved Germany!
OMG, I hate how much this sounds like the US about ten years ago
It's complicated
The threshold in proving that a party is democracy damaging is quite high
It's discussed for years now, but it seems like things start to look good. Just don't hold your breath that it will happen fast
Maybe, just maybe, engagement ranked social media wasn’t a good idea?
This has to be cheaper for Russia et al than troll farms, right?
I've just been assuming that these were all AI for the past few years already.
"Google and OpenAI said they are each examining Alternita’s use of their engines while Anthropic did not reply to the Correctiv query."
To prevent it from happening again, right? Right?
the commies just need to copy paste from lemmy for their app
only 'examining' the books, to make sure their bills are getting paid on time.
This is just the automated version of what's been happening the last decade in social media. The foreign influence operations have been very effective at driving splits among Democrats. I know Reddit is rife with them but wondering about them operating here as well. The pattern sure seems to hold on some controversial topics.
Establishment Dems have done a good enough job at creating a rift in their party on their own ober the past 20 years; no rage-baiting AI required.
But for unknown reasons not a good enough job for dissidents to create the American Social Democratic party
A third party is absolutely possible, it just requires one or two headnames and Social Democratic reforms which has major support among the electorate of both sides of the aisle
They should develop an AI that makes them seem less like weak ass losers, but alas I don't think we'll ever have the tech
Fascists man, they are pathetic little losers by nature all of them. They can follow their dear Führer.
Cool.
Cool, cool, cool.
I hate living in the darkest timeline... maybe I should work on my facial hair
what a surprise (no)
Yes, good fit. Two entities that do not care about reality, facts and are both not remotely human.
