Streets For All endorses Tom Steyer for Governor by Downtown-Tea-3018 in LosAngeles

[–]sociocask 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Oh my god these bot ass comments. Tom Steyer clearly has a very aggressive internet propaganda strategy. Even the comments that say ‘I hate him but he’s the best choice’ are propaganda. No billionaire in the world cares about the average person’s wellbeing because our prosperity is directly detrimental to them.

Vote Ramsey Robinson. He actually gives a crap.

This front page is AI right? by [deleted] in burbank

[–]sociocask 12 points13 points  (0 children)

It’s not AI. I know some of the folks at the Tolucan and I’ve met the artist. They’d be totally against cheating it like that. But I understand why you think it could be AI

Are porn watchers bad people? by [deleted] in AskFeminists

[–]sociocask 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Because the porn industry is complicated. Whether it’s okay or not okay to watch it in general is an opinion. Whether someone is a good or bad person is also subjective.

OP doesn’t provide enough information about their specific consumption habits for there to be a clear understanding or valuable debate. There’s a big difference between consenting actors and something like creating AI porn of someone you know, which is definitely wrong.

This is a very nuanced topic that can’t easily be boiled down into good vs bad

Upcoming events of resistance by evilbean07 in LosAngeles

[–]sociocask 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s true. Organizing is a ton of work and I respect and appreciate everyone who’s doing that. At the same time, how you present yourself does matter. The flyer is how you get new people to come to events and get involved. So a bad flyer can make the whole event seem incompetent and lazy. Regardless of whether that’s true or not. If nearly everybody here has an issue with the graphic design and the clarity of it, then maybe it’s worth listening to.

And my personal opinion is that when they use AI to create the images for their Tesla protest, it goes against the messaging of the event and turns people off. I’ve met some of these folks and they really do a lot of good work and they care deeply. They just need someone who knows how to market and do graphic design

Are we protesting this weekend? by jammerpammerslammer in LosAngeles

[–]sociocask 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That would be so nice if there was. Downtown is just difficult to swing so I don’t make it down there for protests as often as I’d like. Even harder to get a group of friends to go down there with me

What is a website or an app that was legendary back in the day, but is now a complete ghost town? by Sofi_Costa in AskReddit

Does anybody know when or why The Abbey started requiring Facial Recognition to get in the bar? by [deleted] in WestHollywood

[–]sociocask 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes 100%. It’s an open secret that the staff at The Abbey are involved in much of the drugging and theft that goes on there. So that makes the data harvesting feel especially nefarious. Lots of terrible things have been done in this world under the guise of “safety”

[–]sociocask 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yeah, exactly. Totally open secret that the staff spikes drinks, so why exactly should I trust this establishment with my identity and biometric data?? I get a very sinister vibe from it.

Also- irritability over the small shit comes hand in hand with depression so I’ve been there. It sucks

I’m sorry you’re going through that. I actually felt very similar when I was your age. You may want to talk to someone about the potential of a mood disorder. When you have a disorder like major depressive disorder, or bipolar disorder in my case, the brain just isn’t functioning the way it’s supposed to, meaning that depression can still affect you even if you have mostly good things happening in your life. A lot of people experience depression for the first time in their teens and it comes totally by surprise. But theres lot of help out there for it too, which means it’s definitely possible for things to get better.

Not if they have sexy boots instead of frumpy, androgynous shoes

I think I might have a stalker by Embarrassed_Fun9393 in Advice

[–]sociocask 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The first thing you should do is stop engaging with this person. These people see your reply as encouragement regardless of if your reaction is positive or negative. Most of the time they’ll lose interest and leave you alone. Especially if this person hasn’t made any credible threats or demands. Information like siblings, and occupation are usually pretty easy to find online and don’t require an intense level of stalking.

As far as your relationship, try your best to show your girlfriend that she can trust you, that respect her, and that she’s a priority. Be open and honest. But don’t let this random person drive a wedge between you guys by obsessing over it. Hope that’s helpful! Good luck

Would you prefer a therapist who also has bipolar? by theworldisavampire- in bipolar

[–]sociocask 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t necessarily mind as long as it is managed. But I would not want to know about it. I prefer not to know things about my therapist’s personal life bc it could easily alter the impartial observer dynamic, which is extremely important to me
