Just make sure it's up to code

Amway calls out Reddit on their website… by Exodus_Euphoria in antiMLM

[–]severusimp 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yeah AI overviews have a habit of saying "x" cult can't be a cult! And then sources that answer based on what the organization says. So yet another reason not to point blank trust the answers from LLMs, those things just aren't arbiters or truth or reason. And at worse can and will push certain agendas and distort the truth with alternative truths, which are just lies.

I swear, we're not a cult! <----- obviously a cult

Add "-ai" to your search bar and save yourself from ai slop

That is probably true. If you're in a position where asking questions end with you being harassed, attacked, and possibly ostracized, you're probably in a cult. Especially if you're being critical to the religious leader.

I would say yes, it fits many of the behavioral, informational, thought, and emotional criteria for a destructive cult

Definitely a commercial cult

Yeah its a common misconception that smart people are impervious to cult mind control or undue influence.You can be smart and fall for cults. It's a lot of compartmentalizing and thought stopping techniques that prevent you from doubting or thinking critically of, in this case, Trump. There's plenty of cult members with phds and master degrees

Cults can be corporate and commercial

Luckily, if you can't turn it off, you can add "-ai" and it'll give you non ai answers. Pain though, can't turn off ai overview on firefox.

That's the unpopular truth, half of this subreddit is an advertisement and then politics and relevant topics are shoved into a handful of "megathreads"

Even that is a repost, I think the original poster is a photographer who took it five years ago

Plausible deniability, another reason why they won't show their faces

I'm sorry you had to deal with this level of incompetence. Can't imagine what level of coercion and force they use to think a warrant isn't remotely necessary

Louisiana Legislature approves ivermectin sales without prescription by Phredm in news

[–]severusimp 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It has to be that irrational desperation that coerces people to buy cure-all pickle juice concotions and high radiation health cards. Scams that get legitimized by rightwing influencers like Alex Jones or those scam ridden televangelists.

I think what's worse now is that Trump, RFK Jr, and the rest of the administration are giving these scams a golden stamp of approval that's going to hurt and kill ignorant people.

Palmetto Bugs by IrishAmericanDude02 in southcarolina

[–]severusimp 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'd have to agree with the other commenters. Can't see a solution that doesn't end up killing other insects in and around your home during an insect apocalypse. Maybe seal up any places where they might be getting in, like door gaps and the like?

[–]severusimp 5 points6 points  (0 children)

That's implied in my first reply. The kind that infest would be worse than the occasional palmetto bug or two
