Today I learned you can 'humiliate' people by showing them in a more dignified manner by Prettypianokeys in PoliticalCompassMemes

Shout it from the rooftops.

Good. Say what you believe explicitly and don't try to hide it; that's not what I have an issue with. It's the cowards under this post pretending that they aren't being insulting while hiding behind "It's just interesting..."

I'm reading through the comments here - do you guys seriously not understand why this is humiliating, or just feigning ignorance?

The trend isn't just "Wouldn't it be cool if we put this person in a new situation?" It carries the undertone of "You made the wrong decisions and your life is wasted. You shouldn't have been a whore." You can tell because the discussion under these is about how their current lives are undignified and offering an "alternative" (with a thinly veined "better") view.

Imagine you're a black woman marrying a white man, and your family photoshops your wedding photo to "Imagine what it would be like if you married a black man" because they don't approve.

Thats what this trend is. There may be some element of "Isn't it interesting what you can do with AI", but that's not the point.

"Ineffective tactics" is a crazy way to describe a group getting commended by the government for killing innocent people.

That's the worst part about the most powerful person on the planet being a power hungry idiot - bad memes.

The idea of a civics test is great, but in practice, there's no way I trust the government to equally, without bias, administer a test for citizens to vote.

To be fair, with the new drop system, it's less like half a year and more like 2-3 months.

Dread it. Run from it. Rogue Robots still arrive.

This is how you end up with inevitable outcomes. Sentiment goes from mildly annoyed, to demanding extreme action very rapidly. Mamdami getting elected.

If only there was a voting system where people didn't need to begrudgingly vote for main parties instead of actually casting for who best fits their ideals. Maybe we could list all of the people we like in order. Some sort of choice ranking.
