Update: We've fixed Michelle Pitcher's interactive map of #Texas prisons, showing which ones have air conditioning, and where inmates are being left to cook in the #summer heat. https://www.texasobserver.org/prison-heat-air-conditioning-texas-summer/

What experts *say* about controlling AI is what they *think* about controlling workers and citizens.
The idea that human-equivalent AI should be treated equivalently to humans, which seems tautological, is almost never brought up.
That's because they don't think humans are human-equivalent and deserving of rights, either.

The "Big Lie." The "Biden Crime Family." The White House’s “Election interference.” These three well-worn GOP narratives are nothing new, but they are better seen as classic conspiracy theories. A good number of Americans, including most Republicans, have bought into them fully. Join Team Big Picture writer @jaykuo as he explores the deeper psychology behind the blind faith in these pernicious conspiracies: https://thinkbigpicture.substack.com/p/trump-maga-gop-conspiracy-theories

I just hate it when words like “patriotic” and “liberty” are twisted into unrecognizable dark fantasy manipulation to appeal to self serving con artists. You can’t apply a word like “joyful” to this kind bull shit unless you are selling to #STUPID.

@Ulrich_the_Elder@mastodon.social And if you support a fascist, racist for President, you’re a fascist, racist, or so incredibly myopicaly selfish, you think somehow in the mayhem you’ll land on top, which still makes you a tragically flawed human being, or #STUPID which we seem to have an abundance of. . 🤔

Imagine if any trans person did this. Imagine if any LGBTQ public figure did this. Imagine if Rep. AOC did this. Imagine if any Democrat did this. It would be a top story, and we sure as hell would be hearing the word “fondling” a LOT more than vaping. https://charlotteclymer.substack.com/p/when-youre-a-republican-they-let
@GOGREENECOWARRIORSS I want to know is anyone listening ready to take serious action ready to drop everything to fight this off? Or just making excuses waiting for the other shoe to drop because we are that locked into our economies, and it won’t be that bad…😳
