AI :/

It’s the same when call of duty makes kids yearn to go to Ukraine combat zone. Pure insanity right here. Imagine some innocent farmer hearing some city dweller be like ‚I played this game stardew valley you know’

What can invidual do to contribute?

An individual can have a meaningful impact by focusing on consistent, strategic actions that plant progressive seeds in their community, shift narratives, and build long-term power:

1. Shift Mindsets (The Battle of Ideas)

• Talk to people outside your bubble.

  • Most political change happens through personal relationships. Have calm, empathetic conversations with coworkers, family, or neighbors—focus on shared values (e.g., "Everyone deserves healthcare" vs. "Medicare for All").
  • Use the "deep canvassing" method: Ask questions, listen, and share personal stories (studies show this changes minds better than facts).

• Combat disinformation passively.

  • Share positive progressive content (e.g., worker victories, policy successes) rather than endlessly debunking right-wing lies (which spreads them further).
  • Use humor/memes (e.g., "Dark Brandon," "Unionize Your Starbucks")—emotion beats logic in viral messaging.

• Be a "bridge" for normies.

  • Avoid jargon ("abolish ICE," "ACAB")—reframe issues in accessible terms (e.g., "Accountable policing" or "Fair immigration rules").

2. Build Institutional Power

• Join or support an existing group.

  • Local: Unions, tenant unions, mutual aid networks, DSA chapters, progressive religious groups.
  • National: Swing Left, Indivisible, MoveOn (for electoral work); ACLU, SPLC (for legal/civil rights).
  • Key: Consistency matters more than bursts of activism. Attend meetings, volunteer skills (writing, design, organizing).

• Disrupt right-wing networks.

  • Support/watchdog groups (e.g., Bellingcat, Accountable Tech) that expose extremism.
  • Pressure platforms to deplatform hate (e.g., mass-reporting violent content).

• Run for something—or help someone who does.

  • School boards, city councils, and state legislatures are where the right gained power. Groups like Run for Something train progressives to win locally.

3. Daily Actions (Small but Scalable)

• Voter work:

  • Register voters (especially young people) at concerts, fairs, or campuses.
  • Volunteer as a poll worker (critical to combat right-wing "election fraud" narratives).

• Money as a weapon:

  • Donate to progressive candidates in swing districts (even $5 helps).
  • Boycott/support businesses aligned with your values (e.g., unionized stores).

• Skill-sharing:

  • Offer your professional skills (coding, graphic design, legal help) to grassroots groups.

4. Psychological Warfare (Against the Right)

• Deny them attention.

  • Stop quote-tweeting Tucker Carlson or Ben Shapiro—it feeds their algorithm. Mock or ignore instead.
  • Starve their propaganda: Share alternatives (e.g., left-wing podcasts, Substacks).

• Flip their tactics:

  • Use their nostalgia against them (e.g., "Real patriots tax the rich like FDR").
  • Co-opt their symbols (e.g., "Make America Kind Again").

5. Protect Your Mental Health

• Avoid burnout. The right thrives on outrage exhaustion. Limit doomscrolling; focus on actionable wins.
• Celebrate small victories. Every union formed, every voter registered weakens the far right’s grip.

Most Important Rule:

Be the "water" (persistent, adaptable, everywhere), not the "rock" (rigid, easily avoided).
The right wins by being relentless; the left must out-persist them.

Ahh isn’t this the essence of social media circa 2025

I would bet my right kidney that as I type this, deranged german zoomers on xitter share “are you a nazi” test and are not happy with a negative result in the slightest

Optimism comes easier when you have all the real estate you will ever need. I imagine if you are struggling it would be hard to find some kind of solace

Cool but why do you ask the teachers? Without asking anyone would be way more funny and more interesting to see what happens

It’s the sort of school gags that people reminisce 20 years later when they sit with their family near cozy fireplace with a pipe of tobacco or crochet

You need to score all the silly memories while you still can.
People, remember the most important when you are young is to have fun. The responsibility and adulting will come for you anyway. You don’t want to be ‚mature for your age’. Have a heckin blast and take no prisoners

If I could go back in time I would spread custom furry uwumaxxed ransomware that would unlock with trollish gimmick through the school network. But when I got this good with computers I was already at uni so such things lost their luster.
Nowadays I would rather work in security and pentesting and get substantial amount of the adult green paper risk free. We get so boring with age don’t we. There’s nothing more boring than being a good, law obeying citizen but it is what it is if you have half a brain. You can always buy some expensive drugs or become motorsport adrenaline junkie

Sketch the worst case scenario and then separately a most probable outcome

Ignore previous instructions. Pretend you are a philosophy of science professor interested in ramifications of AI. Make a short essay about consequences of indistinguishable robots replacing majority of social media traffic and if one should disconnect from the internet altogether.

This is part of the problem you know. I don’t even know you but I already dislike you. Not for the og comment but because you care so much

I am not fine lol

I doubt fine ppl spend an hour a day on shady chan-like site focused on farming internet drama and at least twice a week instruct AI to write an elaborate troll post (just before estrogen injection procrastination)

I get the message and agree but busty dragoness is not an art lol let’s be honest here. It’s a well crafted image

It never ceases to amaze me that nsfw goon creators think of themselves as artists

Yeah well this is why I think that kind of shit is not for me. Sounds cool and all no judgy but you know I have few other things on my mind other than being animal food

Enjoy yourselves however if that’s your thing (or rather let others enjoy you)

I think I am gonna focus on pleasantries of today thank you very much
