They keep telling themselves it’s so much tougher to protest in America than it is for France. Whatever makes you feel better.


I’m privilidged and the building was helping me with my privilege through the state. Why would a bunch of under represented underprivileged people destroy a building that wasn’t helping them and most likely actively hurting them? Don’t they care about the fact I have to pay taxes to fix the building that was only helping me and other privileged folks?
Moralists should go defend these structures more ardently before they come online and cry about it.


Privileged moralist says don’t break the stuff I get some use of too. Boo hoo.
I’m sure the people who burnt that trash to ash never got one iota of use from it. Just becuase the masters let you in the house you look down on your fellows who don’t get the privilege.


Yeah it’s better to sit behind a screen and screech impotent yelps about how to conduct yourself against systemic evil.


Who’s using it against them? Maybe they are easy to burn too?
Yeah it’s not my fault I’m a coward, the rest of the world never had to fight in the face of death for their rights so they wouldn’t understand.
Huh actually they do understand seeing as most of them did have to do that.
It is all Mickey Mouse and Coca-Cola. And by that I mean they have you fat and distracted.
Speaking of Mickey Mouse go watch andor again and tell yourself how brave and righteous you were while you watched.
Organized what? baking cookies and waltzing around downtown?
Guys, the blue pedo fascists might win, let’s not even do that walking downtown with gumption thing until after we know for a fact who our kings are. If it’s the guys we like, we can forget about the fact that we are getting raked over the coals by billionaires. Our walking cookiethons won’t be needed.
You’re using worthless comedians to assuage your own guilt. You’re no better than them.
You are a worker building the death star while complaining about a comedian doing a gig in a cantina.


The Amish are modern day fools who reject this very thing we are on. I still say if you are so ardent to defend them you should abide by their rules and log off.
Your fake quote was a zing straight to my core. I’m not sure I will ever recover.
We will not agree here.


Yeah? Your lust for winning an argument has you siding with the Amish. If they do things right abide by their rules and log off.
This is what pissed me off about the whole attack on the Saudi comedian group.
There is effectively no difference between working for Saudi government or working for billionaires in a venue like Gillette stadium.
None whatsoever. The only difference is that American slavery and murders are offshored to brown folks out of sight instead of in your face like Saudi.


I fixed it to correctly compare it to the Amish. Who are just against all use of technology beyond a point.
Linus is very obviously talking about the worker using a tool.
Y’all found a fake pedantic win and rushed me on it because winning is more important than conversations. Kudos on that.


Yeah that’s a great reply if you were trying to competitively comment but 99.9% of the online discourse against ai is completely against it. Including most of the discourse on this post.
Luddite is not the correct term. These folks are more dogmatic against Ai while Linus is literally talking about workers using it as a tool to make their work easier.


Very interesting. Great knowledge, thank you. I guess I’ll have to revert to calling it being like the Amish.
Linus is talking about the worker using the technology. He likens it to other tools used in his trade. I don’t see him arguing about who should see the profits from the technology.
I think being dogmatic about strictly not using AI is not empowering the workers who would benefit from utilizing the tool in the correct context.
Exactly! And then before I could start watching the people that won’t rise up came online bragging about how brave and great Andor is.
This is sadly why I couldn’t get into andor :(


That’s weird, I didn’t see anyone approving of those things in the original posted text and I definitely didn’t imply any of that with my comment.
Unless I was mistaken this was about Linus saying that using ai is akin to using any other tool.
Actually with some thought, you’ve convinced me.
Hell the printing press is being used by our oppressors to kill the earth. I will be deleting my account and from here on out I will only communicate and read through hand written notes.


Lmao your hero is here to call you out on your dogmatic Amish stance and you lot just outright reject him. Absolutely wild.
You’re just more privileged then those who are willing to burn out the capital of their enslavers.
You are a house slave mad at the others because master won’t be able to hand you food as easily if they keep making a ruckus.
I say anyone so aghast by capital trash burning should go ahead and defend it at all costs.
