Everything you don't like is AI? Not only are you doing a disservice to the real problems with the Democrats, you're crying wolf about AI slop in a post featuring screenshots from well known sources. I'm fairly confident I saw this format in the 2010s, and it wouldn't surprise me if it's older.

You're probably attached to your identity as a Democrat and just can't stand people criticizing your tribe.

I’m not a democrat. Nor do I think the present party has any strength beyond that of a wet spaghetti noodle. Nor do I have anything to do with the army of dipshits in MAGA gear. Bernie winning 2016 would’ve been the right timeline. This one sucks. Do I turn out and vote like an adult anyway, to avoid abject errors like Trump? Yes. But I’m not a democrat.

AI is ruining us already. The gross dependency on it for the most basic of tasks, like writing a sentence, is a malignancy that’s destroying both critical thinking and art. So yea, you’re probably right that I’m a bit over focused on that problem. But maybe not. Either way, there’s no need to draw nasty assumptions that reach far beyond the AI problem simply because you don’t like my focus on the AI problem.
