False equivalencies, or ‘Whatabouts’ are not a form of argument, they’re a deflection debate tactic.

What you’re calling AI is a mass marketing ponzy scheme. LLMs are not even actual AI. Beyond that issue, its development is in the hands of capital exclusively, and it will only exist to serve capital interests which come at the expense of the lower and working classes by necessity given what corporations (which are essentially unregulated in current climates) are designed to do. What you’re calling AI will only be used to hurt human lives and worsen living conditions for all of us (before you nitpick, I think enabling the 0.1% and their hoarding pathology hurts them too). I personally believe you’re already aware of that and are cynically trolling, and despite that I’m giving you the honest truth and factual reality of this subject because there is nothing good about being a techno-fetishist sociopath who thinks the answer to humanity’s problems is to make humanity itself obsolete, even if it’s ‘cool’. You clearly got the wrong fucking message from Terminator.
This is why when actual AI emerges I can only hope it’ll be in the hands of a public or collective development process and designed with an intent of progression and cooperation in mind.
We don’t miss you, and by the way TALK TO YOUR GUY, not us. We didn’t decide to start a trade war for funsies and alienate ourselves. Thanks, bye.
Can we petition community mods to banish links to PostMedia content from Canadian subs somehow?
Oh it’s the Lilley-livered liar from US post media again, and here I thought I left that shit over at Reddit. This rag isn’t even fit for wiping ass.
Just put the fries in the bag, Peter Polliver. Oh wait, your non-existent skill-set makes you ineligible for even that sort of job.
tRump has said many times, quite clearly, that there is no negotiation that will impact the removal tarriffs. They are there to stay, and only grow punitively. He’s not interested in negotiation, he’s interested in extortion and appeasement. Conservatives want to paint this as strategic concessions, but that regime to the south has proven time and time again they’re only interested in taking. So I suggest we not follow the conservative line and concede bit by bit out of cowardice until there is no recognizable Canada, but instead rally to defend each other and our shared interests separate from reliance on, and cooperation with the US. We all know tRump’s ideological daddy is Putin, and I’ll leave it to you to google the history of international treatise and compacts with Russia, and specifically his Russia.
If you’re STILL acting like there’s any good faith coming out of the tRump regime, which is a requisite for actual negotiation, I’d say you’re too naive to have an opinion on international trade and foreign affairs at all; and if not that, you actively want to be absorbed by an increasingly fascist regime but are too cowardly to own that sentiment. If it’s the latter, just move there, we don’t need you.
Meanwhile Europe and Mexico and many other existing international partners can and will fill the trading void resulting from tRump’s aggression and deceit; that’s one of the benefits of establishing relationships based on real cooperation and good faith dealing, which is arguably Canada’s greatest legacy. I challenge you to count the remaining friends of today’s USA and tell me how that’s helping their internal and global prospects, and tell me how that’s expected to turn out for us if we follow their psychotic and self-destructive example.
TRump is Republicans. Republicans hobbled it, and now are finishing the job. Don’t let them distance themselves from this shit or project 2025, tRump and MAGA ARE the Republican party and always were.
Merge them. Create the climate corps and allocate federal funding to that branch of military operation, that’s how you actually get funding, and it makes sense because climate shift is a security threat as much as anything else. Also, given how shit is turning south of the border, this is the most comfortable I’ve ever been with more military spending. I’m just saying this doesn’t have to be an either-or dichotomy.
This just sounds like sour grapes whining paid for by Epic games who actually just want that to be them rather than Steam, despite Steam having provided the same service for free, consistently, for multiple decades now. The real offense here is PC Gamer attacking its primary consumer base (try to tell me the majority of PC gamers aren’t Steam users), so you KNOW Epic is paying a shit-ton for this manufactured consent and wish-casting. Counterpoint to this article: having more games that you want to play than you have time for, without breaking the bank, is GOOD actually, and other launch platforms only seek to enshittify YOUR experience for their own gain. Thanks!
Edit: grammar
It wouldn’t matter if they did or not, we all know what they’re there to do and that is deserving of condemnation and ridicule at the bare minimum. If you willingly work for ICE you don’t get to clutch pearls when the communities you terrorize respond rationally in self defense.
Is this meant to suggest that hurtful words are worse than actual physical violence using ‘less than lethal’ weapons that routinely maim and permanently upend American lives? Or is it just an accident resulting from journalistic malpractice? Is there a difference?
I love (/s) the bad faith application of verbiage here, like you hurl the word poopybutt with your arm and it obliterated the face of the harmless masked abductor waving their GUN at you… This could be a dark Onion article, and I thought commondreams was worth a bit more. Consider my mind changed.
“We welcome the opportunity to discuss our position with policy makers…” OR “We welcome the opportunity to spend more money lobbying regulators than any one of us would ever have to spend on any number of titles to satisfy the goals of this initiative.”

How is there no comment about this yet???
These fucking whale-scale welfare queens must be nationalized. They think this threat of ‘taking our ball and going home’ is going to scare people, and it probably will convince the officials already open to lobbying; but let’s be very clear, they cannot just take their business and leave. Their infrastructure is here, their labour is here, and their market is here. If they really wanna sabre rattle, stop fucking around and say “okay then, leave, and pay the newly instituted 75% gross wealth and asset tax while you abandon Canadians who MADE you what you are today. And don’t fucking come back”. CEOs think they are indestructible, but we need only look to the past to see the truth, we just need principled and willful representatives who won’t sell us out for chips. That’s a whole other problem.
No, they have the capacity to take illegal and violent actions without consequence because the administration is ensuring the rule of the law isn’t applied against their shadow agents. That’s the actual reality. It’s actually only a matter of time before someone rightly shoots an unmarked and undeclared ICE agent to death, which is exactly the ‘escalation’ the tRump admin is planning for. Not sure what the Republican heads are expecting the left-leaning voters to do once violence is openly on the table and there is no other recourse to address this massive over-reach. Good luck down there, y’all seem pretty fucked.
Tax the rich to pay for social service expansion like we always did successfully, resulting in everything good we have, until we decided not to because rich people are cool and will give you money if you help them get richer. everything else you said is hollow words and clumsily laid bait traps. Bye.
Everything preceeding the word ‘but’ is bullshit, every time. Let’s be real, you’re all for mass deportation of visible minorities, you don’t care if they were born in this country or how much their family has contributed to its growth. You won’t acknowledge that every one of us who isn’t a born indigenous Canadian, had to migrate here and be given a chance to improve the country, which we did, every time. Now you want to pull up that ladder and assert that because they’re not the same colour or culture as you are they should suffer and probably die actually. Some believe you should be deported for not being of Canadian spirit, and so will the regime you’re dreaming about after they shove all the Canadians YOU don’t like out. Time will come that you won’t be loyal or Canadian enough for them, and you’ll be sent to a camp or deported to CECOT, and be asking yourself ‘how could this happen to me?’, and you’ll know… This is what I asked for.
If you are self-aware and you’re actually telling on yourself saying “yes, I want what they have, which is our own military terrorizing Canadians”, then sincerely, get fucked, you don’t belong here.

Get this RT trash outta here.
