This is why fash hate critical race theory, etc. An educated public wouldn't accept this kind of "reverse racism" bullshit. Unfortunately the hegemonic narrative under colonial imperialism is anti-reality and pro-racism. Thus, trump.

I don’t think that’s the case, since both are made of matter.

lmao. How about an anti-matter "AI"? Dark matter? Any other options for physical materials?

Ai exposes, I think, the uncomfortable fact that intelligence does not require a soul.

These kinds of statements are completely pseudo-scientific.

"AI" doesn't exist. It doesn't "expose" anything about "intelligence" or "souls".

It's impossible to "kill" a computer that was never alive/conscious.

There are better takes but you have to search for them.

How many of you have criminals as friends? None. You know why? Because they’ll lie and steal from you just as fast as anyone else - that’s why.

Grow up. Most "crimes" are bullshit and most "criminals" are fine people.

Nobody wants to be friends with Trump because he's a fascist who attacks people both legally and illegally, although there's no conviction/punishment when the rich/privileged commit "crimes".

No thanks on the nationalist "we". Cultspeak.

Frank first uses a singular personal pronoun (“I”), but then quickly corrects to the plural personal pronoun “we.” Why? Because when you're leading a cult, you need to imply family, collectiveness, exclusivity at each moment. Frank's consistently creates an "us versus them" scenario. Although it's unclear who "they" are, that hardly matters to his followers. They are much too busy "looking harder" (at what?) "digging deeper" (to where?) and "mining that pure, unbridled potential (of what?)" - https://www.whatmakesgreatwriting.com/p/dont-worry-darling

I support one state with equal rights for all residents and right to return for all Palestinian refugees and their descendants. But more importantly, I am just opposed to genocide and nazi scum.

This is anti-zionism. You should consider yourself an anti-zionist. It's actually a good thing to oppose fascism. No need to quibble about it.

It used to be that only people using extreme or aggressive language combined with the unpopular opinion would get banned. Now, even calm, reasoned arguments are being removed.

This is completely absurd and subjective. For example, nazism is always offensive regardless of tone or "reason". Other forms of fascism (eg. zionism) are no different. This kind of tone policing is just liberal privilege in service to fascism.
