"Just give me something for the cringe and let me die."

 

[Skitzyfrenic]

You know I get it. You hang out with your friends from work and do stuff.

But why in the ever loving fuck would you show this particular thing off?

Like Fire vs Police basketball game halftime show? Sure. It's all cringe but its all in good fun.

But what the fuck. Out of the blue this is awful.

New Report Details How National Science Foundation is Funding AI Tools to Censor and Indoctrinate Americans Online

WASHINGTON, D.C. – The House Judiciary Committee and its Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government released an interim staff report titled, "The Weaponization&nbs

The Biden Admin and co were/are weaponizing the National Science Foundation for censorship purposes.

Non-public documents obtained by the House Judiciary Committee and the Select Subcommittee on the Weaponization of the Federal Government demonstrate that these federal bureaucrats, "disinformation" researchers, and non-profit groups understood that their actions—"content moderation" and combatting so-called misinformation—amounted to "censorship." And yet, NSF forged ahead, supporting new technologies that would essentially enable the censorship of online speech "at scale."

From legal scholars to conservative journalists, NSF tracked any public criticism of its work in funding misinformation projects. NSF went so far as to develop a media strategy that considered blacklisting certain American media outlets because they were scrutinizing NSF's funding of censorship and propaganda tools.

Did anyone see that Alabaman senator's bizarre response to Biden's SOTU? Didn't know the Republicans have started fielding robots these days.

Indeed fellow meatbag, it is very strange that she would think this.

 

[SoliFortissimi]

Let nobody say that the Republicans are stuck in the past. I don't see the Democrats fielding robot Senators, do you?

Speaking of anyone in particular?

 

[Skitzyfrenic]

No, not this time.

You know, it's the government joke. The government is run by aliens who are lizards.

So if it's Republicans are robots, then the Dems must be lizard aliens.

I think there've been a couple of movies to this effect.

 

[SoliFortissimi]

o if it's Republicans are robots, then the Dems must be lizard aliens.

Not the Republicans, just this lady. There's no way those goobers could be robots.

It's honestly looking bad for the case. Basically, they had a lot of difficulty showing threats (because the people being acted upon will willing, and any threat was implicit), and then ran into even the middle 3 judges (Roberts, Kavanaugh, and Barrett) asking about "What about a request not to post sensitive info issued to a news paper? That does happen without a threat, would that be limited by this?" etc. This sucks.

 

[Zachowon]

What case is this?

 

[Abhorsen]

What case is this?

Murphy v Missouri

 

[SoliFortissimi]

How far America has come. Supreme Court judges are arguing, without a hint of irony, that it's unreasonable for the government to be hampered by basic constitutional rights.

 

[Zachowon]

You see. The argument is.
It's a company that got asked. Not threatened.
They are not the US government. They can ban what ever as they are a private enti

 

[Blasterbot]

I agree so long as the government simply asks a social media company nicely to please remove all wrong think there is literally nothing to be done. private entities at the behest of the US government acting on behalf of the US government must be allowed to Censor whoever and whatever the government asks them to. otherwise how will they push the ideology they want to have pushed?
