From conversations with ChatGPT 4o today. The AI was unaware that former US President Donald Trump had been shot in the ear during an attempted assassination in July, or that a second would-be assassin had been caught in September.

One Must Go
Do I have any lawyer friends who are up for a *real* challenge? 🙂 In the 2012 U.S. Supreme Court case, “Arizona v. the United States,” SCOTUS ruled that Arizona could not enact its own immigration law, because Federal immigration law existed. Therefore, the existence of the National Firearms Act (not to mention the Second …
Watching ABC News today…
The news: “They were members of an extreme right-wing group that denies the legitimacy of the U.S. government.” Me: “By definition, that makes them left-wing, you propagandizing imbeciles.”
“Matrix 4” prediction
So, if you ask any two fans about the “Matrix” movies, they will have some pet ideology which they believe the movies embody. And these are deeply allegorical movies, so I’m sure you can find influence or parallel to any number of schools of thought. I have seen some interpretations which claim that the entire …
Conversations with Atheists, 26 APR 21
Them: “How many people have you personally met, who attempt to force Atheism on anyone?“ Notice the immediate restriction: my opinion is somehow only valid if I have personally met an offender.

Warming, Viruses, and Conspiracies

1. All human thought is either ‘science-based’ or ‘fantasy-based’. These are mutually exclusive, and there are no other possibilities. 2. Everything I like is ‘science-based’. 3. Because it is ‘science-based’, it has value in all situations. People who believe it are smart and good. 4. Everything I don’t like is ‘fantasy-based’. 5. Because it is …
A Thought as Orwell Spins…
The political party currently telling you that the police are racist brutes who cannot be trusted, is the same political party which says that you should forfeit your Constitutionally-affirmed right to self-defense, because police are the only ones which should be trusted with guns.
On Taxation
It is not true that “taxation is theft”. But it is also not true that the confiscation of earnings is a tax. That is not how taxes work. All payroll deductions are a specialized case of indentured servitude. One in which the “servant” did nothing to deserve his bondage, and will never be allowed to …
