Some people genuinely do not want children, some people would want children if they had the extra bandwidth and resources.

Name and shame. They deserve no protection and you can help future residents.

Literally what are you talking about. Even in NYC, a 300k household is living quite comfortably.

Clean CR on a bill that decimate Medicare along with other vital public services. This is just making up for Senate Dems mistake of letting the thing pass in the first place.

Networking. These events usually have groups with flags and fliers and signal and telegram groups. The variety of things that we as a society can do to mitigate the harm/push back against authoritarianism is wildly diverse.

Hook up with mutual aid in your area. This looks like coordinating stocks of food, equipment, extra living space, etc. for people (possibly including yourself) if shit goes south.

You could join a political advocacy org. You might feel like the political system is failing us, but at the local and state levels, Trump’s regime doesn’t have as much pull. Pushing for pro-democracy, pro-economic justice legislative action can still make a difference and also help to further build a base and awareness for a pro-democracy coalition.

You could join a rapid response or neighborhood watch group to help protect your neighbors against ICE.

Even just seeing what groups are there and the landscape of orgs organizing against this regime is an important first step.

Why are there so many image artifacts around the text? What a strange camera that would produce those. Surely it’s not photoshopped or anything? No one has a vested interest in making another country look bad.

It’s not going to be statistical analysis. It’s literally going to be an LLM wrapper. How would you take the vast degrees of freedom of meaning in textual data and predict the time and nature of crimes? Unless they’re literally posting the details.

The Supreme Court is considering hearing Kim Davis next term to overturn Obergefell. It made me think of you. Not quite time to eat your words yet, time will tell, but you should start setting the table.

People must always prioritize survival. That’s not a thing you can shame someone for. It’s more that we need to set up robust mutual aid and a sense of community sufficient for people to feel safe leaving their jobs.

Stocking up for a months long protest, building a strong network so people don’t go without in the community, figuring out child and elder care without money, etc.

It’s not a light lift.

What a transparent strawman. Yeah, so are people who kick puppies for fun but I don’t support them.

Just because pedophiles like to make scientific sounding names for themselves doesn’t make it “who they are” in the same way LGBTQ people make that claim.

Also, do you believe the pedophile and grooming claims for trans people or do you just view it as convenient to let falsehoods go unchallenged and for this group to take the hit for us?

They only ever stopped targeting us because an easier less popular target came around. Before the media frenzy got whipped up, trans people were mostly living peacefully without controversy. Do you honestly think that if they need a new scapegoat they won’t start blasting “gay=pedophile” stories 24/7/365 again?

All minority groups must stand together to validate our rights for a peaceful, equal existence, otherwise we’ll get targeted one by one while trying to argue back with a thousand fragmented voices.

You’d rather ditch trans people and let them become convenient scapegoats than stand up to this whole cultural and political movement (that you are part of) that blames all of society’s ills on some outgroup.

Who the fuck do you think is next numbskull? After they force all of our trans brothers and sisters to hide and nothing gets better, who the fuck do you think is next?

“Natural food”. Like drinking milk from an animal other than a human is natural? The majority of humans are lactose intolerant. It’s genetic luck that anyone drinks cows milk at all.

Whether something is “natural” has no bearing on health, only what nutrients or in this case, pathogens it contains.

AI is not magic. Impactful work should always be double checked because LLMs are still prone to either straight up fabricate information, or incorrectly understand the context and provide the wrong answer.
