so just to be totally clear AI is "democratizing" programming by taking something that used to free to do and making it so you pay a subscription fee to an American corporation to do it while being barred from ever actually understanding how it works, am I getting that right?

"This is the part that the online purists miss. They view politics as a romance—they want to fall in love with a leader. I view politics as physics. I am looking for leverage.

When I cast a ballot for a corporate Democrat over a fascist, I am not endorsing their soul. I am choosing the terrain of the battlefield. I am choosing to fight on a field where I might be ignored, rather than on a field where I will be liquidated." - @WeirdWriter

Abolish the TSA. It and the rest of DHS have no business existing as agencies; the post 9/11 reactionary movement that created them was nothing but fascist horseshit from the beginning.

I was fucking there; I fucking remember life before these parasitic agencies existed to make everyone's life a fucking misery.

They do nothing of value and should never have been created.
