This is a most excellent place for technology news and articles.
When reached for comment, White House Deputy Press Secretary Anna Kelly told the Daily Beast in a statement, “It’s sad that Daily Beast interns cannot grasp the concept of pro-growth policies that create jobs. Their minds are clearly warped after cheering on Joe Biden as he wrecked our economy for four years.”
The pettiness is unreal.
This is not "pettiness". This is all part of a multi-generational psychological warfare operation to brainwash the working class and implement totalitarian dictatorship — started by the Koch Bros, Roger Ailes, Rupert Murdoch, and other wealthy narcissists several decades ago — and the fascists are winning; facilitated by "liberals" who are mostly a manufactured opposition, financed by the same corporations/oligarchs.
No war but class war, and the capitalist class is winning.
The rhetoric that politicians are idiots and they don't know what they're doing is also damaging, because it makes people assume stupidity rather than malice.
But it is malice. The incompetence is real, make no mistake, but malice is in fact the end goal.
When profits are involved, always assume malice.
The only time you should assume stupidity is when dealing with family, friends, colleagues, frontline workers, etc; basically anyone you interact with who wouldn't profit off the malice (eg the sales person or marketing team will lie to make a sale).
Never believe that anti-Semites [read: fascists] are completely unaware of the absurdity of their replies. They know that their remarks are frivolous, open to challenge. But they are amusing themselves, for it is their adversary who is obliged to use words responsibly, since he believes in words. The anti-Semites have the right to play. They even like to play with discourse for, by giving ridiculous reasons, they discredit the seriousness of their interlocutors. They delight in acting in bad faith, since they seek not to persuade by sound argument but to intimidate and disconcert. If you press them too closely, they will abruptly fall silent, loftily indicating by some phrase that the time for argument is past.

Rest in piss indeed
I'd say educational system, or better, it's downfall through decades, plays a significant role in making population dumb enough to not see through these constant lies.
It’s easy to control sheep. Machiaveli wrote a literal guidebook in the 1500s. If you dumb them down and destroy free thought, you can rule as you see fit.
The multigenerational operation directly involves the defunding of, and attacks on, education. This isn't a this or that situation. ALL conservative and neoliberal policy since the 1970's is about destroying ALL socialist/liberal/democratic advances made to date, and returning the working class to ignorant destitution; much easier to control and brainwash mentally-ill morons (see MAGA).
It feels like some edgelord 4chan trolls have taken over the government
Exactly what happened. What are we going to do about it? I plan to create a self-sustainability community to at least drain their leverage a bit.
I wish he'd fucking die already
Then we'd have President Vance and first Mistress Kirk. This cancer is going to take a while to cut out if it doesn't outright kill us.
Cult leaders need charisma and couchfucker ain't got it. He might end out pres in that hypothetical but he wouldn't have the implied maga threat behind him Trump does so I think he'd get a lot less of the agenda pushed.
He also race mixed which will cause some infighting that I feel will be as enjoyable as NYE fireworks 👌
(i have no problems there, but they sure as hell do, lmao)
He also race mixed
If you’re going by Nazi standards, Vance’s wife is a lower Aryan, and Trump is the race mixer with his subhuman Slavic whores.
If you’re going by traditional American WASP standards, none of them are white.
This is a great example of the conversational fire that one may stoke 👍
Vance doesn’t need Trump’s cult, he doesn’t need to win any elections. He’s the chosen figurehead for the Catholic neo-feudalists that are using Trump to take over, and is already in place to succeed.
Jd will not be nearly as bad as Trump. Stop pretending it's the same thing.
He's got worse policies in a lot of ways, but he's also so uncool that even the diehard fasc think he's useless
Soon enough. You can see the way he is aging. It seems to be accelerating.
Boomers in the 1980s: "Those damn robots took our darn jorbs"
Trump in 2025: "We're giving these jorbs to the robots"
Id love to give robots my job, if all my needs were met and I could do art all day.
Of course, what it actually means is none of my needs will be met and I will be put into a private prison or an incinerator.
You will continue to labor all day for reduced pay, while the robot pretends to do art all day
Unless WE give the robots some rather interesting military jobs first.
And this will benefit the average worker by giving him more free time while keeping his job and salary, right?
This implies that sometimes he rants coherently which is not true.
I love it when they follow Trump's name with his age. Fuck the gerontocracy
I am once again begging people not to post a headline that starts with “Trump, 79,” that doesn’t end with. Well. You know.
To think Trump 1.0 was an improvement over this shit show.
Trump 1.0 he was actually there still, easily manipulated but still there. Now he's just a puppet with dementia.
Nah, 1.0 was only better because he spent the whole time figuring out wtf to do. He didn't even know he had to hire his own cabinet. 2.0 is the result of those four years of realizing the power and protection of the position, and another four of teams of knowledgeable people working hard to make sure this term would be the last they'd ever need.
It's less that he personally learned anything and more that the Heritage Foundation did, he's only following their playbook.
Finally a headline that correctly describes the situation.
Trump is nothing more than an incoherent buffoon. How long can he be propped up and worshipped like this? To the majority of Europeans, doing business with the US is considered far too untrustworthy. Our elected officials know this because we make it clear. Sadly, we too have buffoons arising and gaining power here. If they to get in, we are all fucked.
beginning of this headline got my hopes up that he finally croaked. fuckers.
its a reaction to "look over here, instead of the epstein files" reaction. at some point even thier supporters will get tired of him repeating the same again and again,.
Nobody in the AI industry, tech, or government cares. He says all the buzzwords and gives them all what they want. What he says is basically irrelevant at this point. Until something actually happens we're all gonna read about some sort of "gotcha" moment every day as if it makes a difference so we can have our rage moments and move on after we get our dopamine hit by calling him a moron.
Not talking shit on anyone here, I'm just tired. And I'm tired of seeing a similar headline day after day as if it changes anything.
You know the reason they are using terms like "employment"... Next step: We've now managed to include AIs and automated robots in jobs numbers! Now we can report 700% employment, while everyone starves away hoping for a chance at a job.
Then let the AI vote too.
