Likewise.

95+% of the time I see a response like this, it's from one particular side of the political aisle. You know the one. Politics has everything to do with this.

>what the current administration has conceded to AI companies

lol, I unironically think that they're not lax enough when it comes to AI.

Based on your response and logic - no dem should read stuff written by repub voters, or if they do read it, dismiss their account because it cannot be … what?

Not sure how we get to dismissing the teacher subreddit, to be honest.

Look, another one! Twist it however you want, I'm not going to accept the idea that far-lefty Reddit is some impartial representation of what teaching is or what the average person thinks of AI.

I think there implication is that because the teacher posted on Reddit, they are some kind of socialist, and therefore shouldn't be listened to. I guess their story would be worth listening to if it was posted on truth social instead?

Ah! Nice point on truth social.

Nah, misses the entire point of what I was saying.

But thanks for recognizing that Truth Social has a noticeable political leaning. So close, yet so far.

Yes, that is accurate.

>I guess their story would be worth listening to if it was posted on truth social instead?

No, I don't take anti-AI nonsense seriously in the first place. That aside, the main point here was that Reddit has a very strong political leaning. If anyone tried to insist that the politics of Truth Social is irrelevant, you'd immediately call it out.

So instead of addressing the actual substance, you dismiss it because of your assumption of their political leanings.

Good luck navigating the world, I guess.

They have the same political leanings as you. I notice these things.

>Good luck navigating the world, I guess.

Thanks. And a hardy "F you" to you too.

It really doesn't lol.

I don't get the reactionary right's hysteria about Reddit. It's so clearly not true it's just silly.

It's like when my brother let my little cousin watch a scary movie and she had hysterics about scary things for days. Y'all tell each other ghost stories and convince yourselves it's real.

Re:LLM Inevitabilism by frozenseven on Wednesday July 16, 2025 @11:22PM (#44589380)
Yet another one! And literally all I have to do is point out that Reddit is a far-lefty website (it obviously is) and say that I won't play along (I won't).

I really don't, honestly you're being so vague and it's such a bipartisan issue I can't piece together who you're mad at. Godspeed.
