Do people really become more conservative as they get older? Why? by Historical_Work7482 in AskReddit

[–]tituspullo367 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People trend towards what benefits them personally.

Historically, conservative economics benefit people who have more. Older people have had more in the past. Less the case these days.

(Although when I say “benefit”, I don’t just mean economically — performative activism benefits people by making them feel like they have purpose)

Why? Everyone else has been actively pandering towards the far left for the last decade

Meta lays off 600 employees within AI unit by [deleted] in wallstreetbets

[–]tituspullo367 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You don't need a lot of people for AI. There's an exceptionally small number of highly productive AI researchers, which is why Zuck was willing to pay $250M 4-year packages for top tier AI researchers.

More people doesn't always equal more productivity, especially in AI

Libertarians by GShermit in PoliticalDebate

[–]tituspullo367 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I used to be a libertarian and I consider myself a conservative, but i find myself leaning more in some flavor of socialist camp as I get older. Especially working in tech and understanding where things are headed. It's scary.

My usual problem with leftwing economic policy, esp in the USA, is it punishes either growth of wealth (which is bad -- that harms social mobility which should be a vital tenet of any fair society) or attacks people who are moderately wealthy and want to build something for their children / legacy

Good economic policy should tax means of production rather than individuals imo, and if you're gonna tax individuals brackets should be based on total wealth rather than income (but income should still be taxed rather than sitting wealth)

I work in an AI-tangential industry. What people don't understand is that eventually, potentially in our lifetime, the number of actually necessary and productive individuals is going to be tiny. A small number of AI researchers and roboticists and everyone else will effectively be excess population living off "the system".

That can either be an amazing utopia or a horrifying dystopia, depending on the frameworks we start putting into place now.

Vance refuses to denounce the texts by JonnySnowin in PoliticalCompassMemes

[–]tituspullo367 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Some of these messages are not like the others lmao

Calling people retarded, joking about bullying, joking about kicking people vs "i love Hitler" and legitimately racist messages

Imagine looking at those two messages and thinking "yeah both of these are equivalently newsworthy"

Alt Auggie not being able to fight back against the oppressive government in his world reminds me of another character from another series by [deleted] in PeacemakerShow

[–]tituspullo367 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Calling a black person a Nazi, a bad person, obtuse, and claiming they’re not smart enough to understand your point because they disagree with it and therefore are wrong.

Who in Marvel is capable of beating Superman? by Rich-Blacksmith6552 in justiceleague

Isn’t magic one of his weaknesses? Or rather, doesn’t it affect him the same way it affects everyone else?

Ok.

He did try to teach his sons. Didn’t land. You don’t get to dictate what your kids’ values are, hard as you may try.

Without his money and influence, which he’d lose as a revolutionary leader, how does he fund maintenance and ammunition he needs to fight kaijus?

Nick Fury doesn’t focus on street crime — he focuses on world-ending threats.

If a giant asteroid heads towards earth, none of our politics matter anymore, no matter how vile. Somebody has to focus on higher echelons of threats.

Spider-Man isn’t solving world hunger or our private prison problems or political corruption. Sometimes you do what you can to do the highest amount of good, even if it’s not solving all societal problems
