What are the winter soldier hearings
This idiotic idea that politics are separate from everything is what is killing the planet.
Many anti ai people are too zealous, for sure, but taking a stance is important, especially against a technology thats been handled as harmful as it. This childish, fantasy apoliticality is an invention, propaganda to let people ignore bad policies from the powerful and wealthy. We should all be political, all the time, inaction and disinterest leads to the death of all things
Its gonna be me
They overestimate the power of machines
Hey, dont mention it, I totally get it. This society primes us for the reaction you had, we are constantly ready for a fight, and it is not your fault, it is our conditioning. Finding the way to dispel that curse is the way we get to people's hearts.
Just a side not, I absolutely do not think that radicalism is always stupid, or stupid at all. "Deep roots are not reached by frost", we need conviction and strong ideals, and to further clarify, I do think that veganism is the end goal for a truly advanced society and a healed world and people.
The point is just that to communicate radical ideas we do not need to be in constant anger. Most people respond well when you engage with them and their differences with curiosity, asking questions instead of directly challenging their ways right away. Our communication must be like water, seeking the path of least resistance, yes, but always ending at the sea or a lake. People already know (in some level) that their lifestyles are wrong. That isnt the Epiphany. The epiphany is helping them build up the idea that it is not to late, that they are not irredeemable, and that change is possible.
People do not want to feel irredeemable and as you said, when talking to Normies abt veganism ppl get defensive. It is largely the fault of propaganda, but more critically, it's the shame angle that always, always fails. Responsibility is a different concept, and it melds better in the mind
The only way to change is with grace, compassion, and when needed, severity and discipline, distributed sparingly.
You have to imagine current human society as a collective made of children, fragile, sensitive, impulsive. They will mirror what they perceive, despite your intentions
I hope this helps, and thank you for reading my comment and being graceful
No, colonialism made us like this. This is not human nature, not completely
Palestine has a right to defend itself
I bet some Nazi said that too.
You are poison

I never said you shouldn't talk about it. I didn't even say you personally shouldn't talk the way you currently are. But do you understand that cultural change doesn't happen just because you shout and scream at people who disagree with you? Even when you're 100 percent right.
You CANNOT blame regular people as much as you do. People are uneducated, evolutionarily primed to be manipulated, and defensive. I personally do not feel bad when I am blamed for that, I know it is bad, I agree. I already know I should eat even less meat than I do now, and slowly but steadily i am doing it. But it wasnt the shame that put me on this, it was the empathy, it was the curiosity, it was the EXACT OPPOSITE of shame that brought me on the path.
Shame is for Christians. It brings Christian results. Us vs them. The radical vegan approach to communication enables the idea that veganism is ridiculous, not because it is wrong, but because it seems like its the only communication that gets through.
You feel righteous anger, rightly so, but that anger when aimed at regular people you are trying (supposedly) to convince,just makes veganism seem a tantrum instead of a mission. The way you speak seems to me like you're feeding your ego, not like you are saving the world.
And what are you feeding it with? Other people's shame. By definition, not a vegan source.
Pardon my joke, but I felt like biting back since you took my honest attempt at communicating as just another excuse to bark and release your anger.
Your fight is just, your energy is right. But "making people feel bad" isnt really a method. Just venting. I dont know the blueprint for a better way, but telling you this is my way of looking for help in searching one.
This WILL backfire, manual labor creates angrier, stronger, more cohesive mobs
I'm worried about when someone is gonna merge AI with biocomputing. If some kind of entity capable of being hostile can be born, it is through that
This approach isnt helping the cause, you can't conflate that responsibility to everyone. Guilt tripping is a Christian method
Man, it's gonna be so funny when the solar storm hits
Be he foe or friend, be he foul or clean, brood of Morgoth or bright Vala, Elda or Maia or Aftercomer, Man yet unborn upon Middle-earth, neither law, nor love, nor league of swords, dread nor danger, not Doom itself, shall defend him from Fëanor, and Fëanor's kin, whoso hideth or hoardeth, or in hand taketh, finding keepeth or afar casteth a Silmaril. This swear we all: death we will deal him ere Day's ending, woe unto world's end! Our word hear thou, Eru Allfather! To the everlasting Darkness doom us if our deed faileth. On the holy mountain hear in witness and our vow remember, Manwë and Varda!
I mean, BYD is a thing now and in europe is getting incentives so i guess we're getting close
