Oof. Double dipping on the baddies with guns on that one.

Wisconsin is hopefully trending in the right (left) direction and has been for a minute. The Republicans are still trying to rat fuck everything so that Evers has a hard time getting anything done, but the state supreme court flipping blue has been huge for the state. It's definitely an uphill battle with all the rural populations holding the state back, but there's at least been some progress made there.
ACAB.
With that out of the way, I'm ok having a specially trained and competent department or whatever to handle high pressure dangerous situations that they are equipped for literally and mentally (deescalation, negotiating, etc). Really, I think that could probably be a job for the national guard. It's unfortunate that the world has bad enough people that sometimes armed personnel are required, but it should be under trained, power hungry ~~gangsters~~ cops.
Funny how there's almost never a good guy with a gun, like statistically almost never. There was that cowboy that shot an active shooter in a church, and I'll give props to the guy the ran into Uvalde when the uniformed bad guys were too chicken shit to save kids lives, and just hung outside. I can't think of any off the top of my head, although I know they exist, but I could prattle off at least a dozen high profile shootings.
I love text chats with a person, but I feel most of the time that when I start with a text chat with a bot and get transferred to a real agent, they ask all of the same questions, like info gathering name, phone, email, etc. it's almost as if the real people can't see the transcript of the conversation I had with the bot.
The thing is, most of those chats that I've worked with for years are simple chat bots, not AI, and those are plenty effective for their purpose. They have their preset question tree and that's it. I may also be a little skewed in my experiences compared to a lot of people, since I've worked in IT for over a decade, so often when in reaching out to service, it's something more advanced where I need a person to actually talk to. Also, anything billing or containing private information. I under no circumstances want that fed into an LLM or accessible to an AI agent so it can be shared accidentally to someone else.
I'll say fuck off without saying fuck off as to not get my shit removed, but bad faith arguments still need to be refuted so that ignorant people don't only see something like that and believe it's true. The amount of effort put into that only needs to be enough so that there exists a counter point.
Their argument indirectly hurts transgender people. It's akin to when BLM (the movement, not the corrupt organization) was big and to counter it, conservatives parroted All Lives Matter. I'd say using the term transracial is arguably worse, because it's all bullshit, while technically All Lives Matter is true, but it's bad faith argument. I personally feel it's the duty of rational people to fight against that sort of speak.
Absolutely. If people like the idiot this post is referring to are allowed to spew bullshit without push back, then other idiots will believe it and spread it. These people need to be shamed and publicly corrected for their bullshit stance that can hurt others. I say hurt others, because an idea like this can be used to delegitimize transgender people.
Which part of "chonky boi" or "mach yeet" do you need an average middle schooler to translate for you? Contextually, it's very clear what is being said for anyone that can read and speaks English.
You think you know what was said, then insulted it saying it was dumbed down for the average middle schooler. What does that say about you?
This is for sure me sometimes. I'll work something out over 10 minutes and decide that I don't want to deal with any follow up or that the way I typed it wasn't clear enough and I don't want to fix it.
As much as I would like to clock and move inside sometimes, I also believe that silence is complacency, and when I feel something said is wrong that others will read, I have an obligation to say something. I'm definitely not always right, but in some matters it's more perspective and others it's based on fact. This conversation ran it's course for me.
Nobody said there couldn't be a little fun with the protests.
He killed Democrats, not a scumbag CEO.
