yeah, although I feel like open communication leads to more people realizing, but I get your point.

I feel like the democratization of global communication led to “a new hope” of sorts, and now we’re living through “The Empire Strikes Back”

Just got to make it to the third movie before things get too bleak… Hopefully…

ah, the way you said “encourage” led me to believe you meant that it was not available, and that discussion of which would encourage its development further. The slippery slope debate about its use elsewhere is valid, but I think it is also valid to discuss it as an alternative when discussing viable death penalty executioners, and it is part of my reasoning for why the death penalty is wrong across the board.

If you think this sort of technology won’t be deployed the moment a serious civil uprising occurs, well then I envy you because I would love to live under that belief - but I don’t.

yeah but the realization for large portions of the population is what is new, although I agree that it has always been just marketing!

I don’t know, we’re already well down that path already - in this context I think its actually one place where it makes sense if you agree with the death penalty I personally do not.

I think we are reaching a point where its an open secret that the words of Jesus are purely marketing for Christianity and the reality is quite uglier.

I mean image recognition is one of the things AI is actually good at… Just sayin…

Great point, like I mentioned above it was a tactic used by imperialists too, divide the population into haves and have nots, the haves will typically shoot the have nots to protect what they have… I guess capitalists use it too.

thats blatant socialism, gtfo.

If you look at the history of massacres of protestors, specifically in the continent of Africa, often times the people doing the shooting are not fellow country men, a lot less people are killed, or not by small arms fire, by comparison this is a real bad one, which is why I responded such.

If you consider the psychological impacts of having to shoot people in front of you, specifically your members of your own “tribe”, although I know there are long standing imperial divisions in countries like Tanzania.

Yikes, shotgun wounds, meaning the soldiers just straight up opened fire on a crowd of their own people… Where has our humanity gone?

How many kids did they sentence to life in prison?

wtf is unnatural causes, were they executed? trampled to death? chem or bio weapons?

Wish I could read the whole article.

As a self proclaimed leftist who has been to many protests, I have never once heard anyone say the word Antifa except for my Maga boss when he thought Antifa was going to come and rob his house after the BLM protests…
