Again, AMERICA doesn't want this. This is some dumb shit from a mentally deficient and decrepit old man that somehow got elected under very shady terms by a minority of the country.
Thank you anyone who profiles entire people with stereotypes and outright lies is a bigot, no matter what they say
So it's a stereotype to describe what a country is literally doing ... okay.
It's a stereotype to ascribe traits to an entire group of people when you say "America" or "Americans" in The context given. Otherwise one would say , the United States government.
Of course , that requires effort.
What traits are being ascribed to all Americans here?
As a US citizen, prove to me that most Americans don't want this.
Yeah, I see the protests, even in my Trump-loving town.
But that's it. People holding signs.
I don't see aggressive action. I don't see the necessary violence - yeah I said it.
I'm moving out of the country because everyone I've tried to rally says they're too busy, they don't have time, they care but they don't care that much, they think everything will work out, or they believe it isn't as bad as the news says.
The people I've voted for and elected just sit on their hands and do fuck all.
I'm 110% for fighting for and defending what I used to believe in, but not when literally all evidence and signs point to nobody else giving a shit.
Someone call me when you're ready to legitimately strategize about how to topple this fascist regime.
Zero presidents have ever lost as much support for anything at any time in the history of this country: https://www.economist.com/interactive/trump-approval-tracker
Not only is this a wildly unpopular president, it's a president who has shed 35-50% of their own voters. It's proof positive that you are wrong.
Nice, my red state is net disapprove.
Thank you for the information. I just hope it leads to action. Poll results to me are just someone standing around waving a sign.
These fascists didn't rise to power by following all the rules, and they won't exit or lose power by us following the rules. It's a sad truth.
We've seen this before.
They know how it ends.

Beat me to it. Most same Americans don't want this, it's the current administration and their moronic lap dogs, and the conglomerates that are paying into Cheeto's personal accounts to "influence him" that want this. Id hope that most of us realize how insanely idiotic this is.
Also to, AI anti-regulation 2: electric boogaloo? Like they literally just tried to shoehorn this into the big bullshit bill only for it to get yanked, and that was what, two weeks ago?
Yup. That's never going to fly, and even if it does, that doesn't mean the Executive all of a sudden gets to start telling private companies how they can and can't operate according to the law. It's so stupid.

This is going to be catastrophic. Imagine the government using AI that does not factor that waters will rise and things will get more humid when deciding to build houses or bridges only for them to be underwater.
Sadly Trump will probably be dead before his place in Florida is flooded by the rising ocean.
I don't even think the models are going to work anymore. Everytime Musk tries to ideologically forces tweeter AI it's going fucking crazy and instable.

The only solace I find in this is that AI, and AGI specifically, is probably a massive grift that will crash spectacularly at some point.
Like crypto?
Very similar to crypto, the AI hype is sustained by some future promise that never comes true.
