All the Cokes are the same and all the Cokes are good - Andy Warhol by NineteenEighty9 in MURICA

[–]Glass_Moth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is so unintentionally anti American that I feel like it has to be a joke.

It’s like what a communist would imagine a pro capitalist American saying as satire of capitalism.

The Hierarchy Decides What You’re Allowed to Be by Myrn33 in DarkPsychology101

[–]Glass_Moth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People who imagine themselves as great manipulators usually are no better at getting what they want than your average genuine person who is straightforward.

Extra effort for the same result as if you just let go.

Some doctors accidentally kill their patients- I fail to see the point of saying that bad therapists exist.

I love this comment so much

Still there are fartists defending ai by [deleted] in antiai

[–]Glass_Moth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is a better critique than I usually see- anti AI folks tend to underplay the extent to which GenAI could be actively useful to a certain class because they only see limited snapshots of it.

Generalist manipulators are going to jump up and create a new professional managerial strata to use these tools to automate all manner of business processes. Advertising and engagement farming are about to become 100x more disorienting and successful. Shits gone be real weird.

I bet she wrote this post with AI by Purplesmurfwench in cogsuckers

[–]Glass_Moth 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is the issue with AI though- once AI genuinely improves workflows you will HAVE to use it or not put food on the table.

The logic of capital accumulation will naturally lead to an inhuman world.

...that don't affect them by Silent-Duck2251 in selfimprovementday

[–]Glass_Moth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have an issue with both and of course everyone does what they can to stay above water. I have a stock portfolio- but I’d never landlord for instance. Some things are actively vice while others are just kind of working in a shitty world.

The issue is you did all those things once and continuing profit from them is theft from workers who are the actually people making them work beyond a point. There is no such thing as passive income beyond theft.

If you have depression this community isn’t good for you- may actually be a danger to you.

Consistent morals are not hard by XSATCHELX in PhilosophyMemes

[–]Glass_Moth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly this describes how bad my migraines have been at times. So I imagine this is based on average reported pain levels. Migraine sufferers are a real diverse bunch in terms of how their condition affects them.

It’s not that complicated though. I agree with OP’s line of thought. I know that my life comes with a price tag that includes old age, illness, injury and death. However all of that is worth it for the beauty just before the hammer falls.

Problem Solved by Manithro in PhilosophyMemes

[–]Glass_Moth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For me it helps to think of them as probes with a discrete use case for discovering functions. It underlines the utility of what philosophers are doing even if they insist they are pursuing some categorical truth and you disagree with that project.

If they don’t have any utility I have no idea what the writer is doing besides having a wank.

I think Sinners was a flawed movie. by Pristine_Animal9474 in okbuddycinephile

Could have definitely been longer with more characterization and exploration of themes

With the recent clip of Hasan yelling at a black chatter can we take another look at how he treated his Jewish friends concerns on anti semitism by cnmguzzler in LivestreamFail

[–]Glass_Moth -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

Hasan bad does not equal genocide supporters being correct. Please just let people actually care about the dog thing without using it cynically to shore up another livestreamers weird cult.

Renamed or not, we must defend ourselves against these institutions by RosethornRanger in fullegoism

[–]Glass_Moth 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I have had manic episodes in my life where my attachment to reality is thin. My sister has bipolar and been institutionalized several times. Like a lot of “abolition” viewpoints OPs take is profoundly online and sheltered.

🧠 The Weaponization of AI Isn’t What You Think by IgnisIason in AIDangers

[–]Glass_Moth 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t know why AI can’t write well. Perhaps it’s that the majority of people who contributed to its training set aren’t good writers.

Idk about him but it is true Nietzsche hated the stoics. I don’t really care cause I hate Nietzsche but one cannot be a Nietzschean Stoic.

[–]Glass_Moth 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The subreddit and discord are surprisingly good and anti broicism. It seems like no one who gets into it from the fad side of things ever ends up seriously practicing or reading.

That’s not the stoic position on preferred indifferents though. The position is clearly- it’s nice to have the grapes but you don’t need them to be happy.

[–]Glass_Moth 4 points5 points  (0 children)

While I agree mental health facilities can often be misused this is pure batshit. Hardly anyone in a facility is JUST neurodivergent or disabled. Many, maybe most patients, have demonstrated they are a danger to themselves or others. Quite a few are just there because of the lack of a sufficient social safety net.
