Bluesky maniacal centrist, but real-life liberal. Gay. Not Q*eer. Not LGBTQIA. And probably skeptical of other cults.

Just what are they hiding under their clown hats. We deserve to know.

That is a unique case with quite different issues at play. He's a fossil fuel company owner in West Virginia. His entire political career was based around how much more money he'd personally make. I don't know if he has a coherent political philosophy beyond self enrichment.

Hell yeah you can. Being predisposed to polygamy has to in some ways related to genetics. Narcissism, etc.

I'm not exactly clear on where he lived most of his life. He seems to be a cheat that has lived all over. But yes he had currently lived in Crete....now he lives in an American prison.

These poor poor Palestinians with their Mercedes & luxury mansions

Many forms of hatred & intolerance are acceptable for the far left. They find common cause with the fundamentalist far right in other countries for those kinds of reasons. They just tell themselves that Palestine must somehow be on the left, too. Lol.

All of the Pennsylvania people responding to this with their "if we only knew". Lol. If you only spent 2 minutes reading before you voted

Did you need a medical doctor to tell you that you need a high functioning brain to work effectively in the US Senate? One of only 100 people that represent all issues for 340 million people? Eh what am I saying, a hoodie will do.

Separating these rubes from their money should be their punishment. They got off way too easy.

Or YOUR apparent lack of any bearing or concept on what issues comprehensively actually make one "centrist" or progressive, as opposed to simply using it as a smear against anyone who dared run against a beloved communist candidate. The reality is you apply that term for disinformation purposes only

I really wish we could say Fetterman changed because of his stroke, but if you look back at his pre-Senate politics he was just as duplicitous and just as self-serving.

The whole "he's changed so very much" is pure CYA & cognitive dissonance prevention. The actual truth which they all know deep down is they didn't know hardly anything about him before he was canonized.

That was why he won. People thought he was the hero of anti-ableism for having a stroke while running for the senate. The stroke & the hoodie were all that most D voters knew about him. It was all they needed to know.

No highly online leftist leaves behind an opportunity to bleat "ABLEIST!" or "RACIST!". The stroke was the best thing that could've happened to him politically. Practically same thing happened with Biden's newfound "stutter" (which he verifiably didn't have for all prior decades of public service)

On the AI thing. Unfortunately it is going to make the smart smarter & much more productive. On the flip side it will make the dumb dumber & far less productive in comparison. We're already observing that trend across industries

That's not just an AI thing. AIs just another straw on the camels back

Totally agree with you. I actually saw it for the first time only a few weeks ago. Had somehow missed it. Leave it to the guy who made Beavis & Butthead to make a comedy that essentially turned into a documentary as the years went along

Here is Sharhabeel Shrieteh. Sharhabeel is Arabic & means "one who is clear about something". Great guy. Hopefully his 2nd wife in Palestine got to keep the Mercedes & palace. His 1st wife, an πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡Έ (who accepted the polygamy), was upset wife #2 was getting more. This was used as evidence against him πŸ‘Œ

β€˜Most stupid fraud in history’: Illinois man gets 10 years in prison for $14 million fraud tied to COVID-19 loans CHICAGO β€” A south suburban man was sentenced to 10 years in federal prison Tuesday in a massive, $14 million fraud scheme where he collected kickbacks for filing more than 1,500 bogus loan application...

"In return, Shrieteh received about $740,000 in kickbacks from clients, spending it on luxury vacations and expensive home renovations... He also sent hundreds of thousands of dollars to his second wife in his native Palestine, where he built a luxury second home and purchased a Mercedes..."

The stroke was by far the best thing that ever happened to him politically. It made the hoodie & the whole thing into like a cause. Conor Lamb was one of the most qualified candidates for any congressional job anywhere. Everyone liked him. Stroke + hoodie are the only way you can beat that.

The people on our side that reflexively fell in ❀️ with him & defended him *because* he had the stroke, playing the ableist card to the max, are NOT different however. Those people will continue to make all the same sorts of flawed judgments & force feed even worse candidates down our necks this time

Bad politicians with bad track records get renominated by their party AND reelected to Congress like 92% of the time.

You didn't think we were already going straight down the path to Idiocracy at at any point over the last several decades. At least we can retroactively blame it all on AI happening in like 2023 or whatever.

Keeping up is part and parcel of being a developer. I need to be skilled with the tools I'm using right now, not the ones I used in the past. People who rest on their laurels quickly become unemployable.

People tell me that using an LLM to create code will rot my programming-language skills. So? We work in a changing landscape, and agility is essential to survive. My goal is not to be the best Python (or whatever) programmer on the planet.

Bluesky is such a bizarre place. Case in point, I'm literally having a conversation on a random American politician, with someone that isn't even an American.

I'm regularly blown away that this many foreigners are interested in American political propaganda.

But you go on with your foolishness.

Obviously he surely still dreams of being president some day, like any politician anywhere near that level does.
