we need something else than just democracy, or at least something that would also protect the integrity of democracy from corruption. If we had something like that and it would function reliably well people who want change would at least have something to rally behind instead of just wanting change into “something” that isnt ever really specified and thus wont ever gain any traction.

maybe something that has semi hierarchy, that can be dismantled on a whim if needed? Have the best from both worlds. Like, anarchy + democrady -> voting system, but politican can be removed at any time by anyone, meaning that they have to actually do good job to keep representing people. Cant even try pleasing everyone and do nothing as that wont help either. Abusers get dealt with in same way as abusers get dealt with in regular anarchy. Though all this relys on humans being even semi rational and decent, which kind of makes it utopistic idea. But it would still work likely better than current only rich get to rule system. And besides, what is the worst that would happen? People vote against their own interests, get apathetic and do nothing?

At worst, nothing at all gets done as no one is in charge of anything, which would still be better situation than current one as at least things wont get worse and if there is some ongoing crisis going on that has to be dealt with, if people still cant get the head out of their arses to deal with it, they have decided to let it happen. Just as we have right now decided to let climate change happen by just pretending to do meaningful things to stop it while in truth just focusing to protect the wealth of the rich.

Every day we have less and less to lose. Any system seems better than what we currently have, though i wonder if soviet union got started with that sentiment. But something has to change because way things currently are are intolerable and by the time that transforms into physical need(like hunger) its too late already because everything is too broken already due to planet not supporting enough life to sustain meaningful civilization.

would anarchy work better in addition to some other system that does not rely on hierarchy?

if you generate graphics, story and stuff with llm and make them more pretty through human labour, you still have llm generated crud. Generated story acted by humans is still same as fully generated one. using generated slop as placeholders might be fine, but it most likely still influences what they actually make so still no.

if you are just starting something and have no idea about anything and no mental image about what is what at all, THEN using generated stuff might be okay as an example so you can get the idea what is going on, as long as you stop using anything generated as soon as you can.

llm and any datacenters involved with it need to go up in flames.

why would they? america is basically under foreign occupation, that is how much your government cares about the people.

desperate/suffering people are easier to control, i assume that is the main reason for this kind of stuff in religion especially since it has no basis in the original message.

should also promote the third party instead of just bashing both sides of the mas party

no he got a point. If someone started doing that they would just get captured and tortured or killed. What can you meaningfully achieve with random violence, alone? Owning a gun will not help you protect yourself against force that can hunt you down and use your loved ones as leverage. Its just copium so people dont organize thinking they have power to protect themselves if things get bad but they never will use it because they are alone and scared, rightfully so.

and likely also ai generated plotlines and other stuff, just maybe tidied up by humans.

I’m almost certain that crimson desert did something like that. Even though the game looks very good and has good content, everything just feels so… uninspired. The quests too you do to random people, like there was some smith that has broken his hammer and cant use it. When you turn in the wood for the hammer, he basically just goes “I can use my hammer again” and that is that. Everything else also feels kind of same about the game. Things are bad when even ubisoft games start looking like height of inspiration when compared to your game.

just dont make this too obvious to the companies that do this if its possible, otherwise they will try to hide their bots better.

Also, is there a “tos” for open source projects, kind of like what is acceptable behavior and what is not? Directly calling out ai generated “contributions” as malicious and unwanted would at least remove the facade from them as non hostile.

Like, if someone trys to add malicious code to the project, that is definitely gainst some kind of agreement, no? So add slop to it too.

they seem to just stay under things out of sight

i’d say only americans that have cause to be proud of themselves are the ones who are actively opposing what is happening to your country.

such useful articles they make

if usa was a democracy and people had any power, maybe…? might as well try oust putin out of power, maybe the response is still less violent than it would be in russia, but you’ll have as much success. Though with enough people demanding something, change happens or steps toward change start to happen, but way america is you need really thorough rebuilding of your entire political system for things to get better.

But as quick patch one thing that comes to my mind is abandoning both sides of your oneparty system and starting a third pary, but that is just temporary because eventually it will be either taken down or corrupted, but it might give you at least something without having to resort to more violent measures.

So something good might come from all this potentially?

see it as it is; full of shitty people with maybe some decent ones sprinkled here and there, owned by even shittier people. How ever it is now, it will get worse in future. Sooner you get off, easier time you will have since eventually it will get to the point you have to leave or just accept everything and hate yourself for it.

Develop some contempt towards corporations in general -> it goes long way to help resist their bullshit.

Expectation to spend money sidelines all the people who cant afford it. Its not nice to sit somewhere and watch everyone else buying stuff and knowing you yourself cant.

Third spaces = freedom to come and go and stay as you please.

Try going to some cafe and never buy anything at all, but spend entire day there. See how it goes for you.

so much for “do no harm”. that “doctor” should have their licence taken away

wasnt the idea to completely ban loot boxes and real money gambling like that?

people just shouldnt work for ea at all. Even if you do good job you still lose your job.
