Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

The AI isn't helping much, but there's also no resistance, so... rip.
Whether or not you like or believe in AI, it's essentially a zip file of all the human knowledge on the internet (or whatever training data used). There is no question a maliciously aligned AI could work out a blitzkrieg political plan, and then adapt as things unfold.
In fact the randomness of some of the actions these party politicians have been taking seem so disconnected leads me to believe humans weren't in the loop. Is alphago conscious. No. Did it beat the best alphago player in the world? Yes. Does it matter if an AI is conscious, or the AGI/ASI hype train is real to fuck up society? No.
AI is known to hallucinate. The use of AI does not make them unbeatable as, at some point, it will go crazy and do random things that hurt the regime (and even more countless innocents).
What stretch does it take to think people think they're "unbeatable", and why is is your exaggeration irrelevant?
They do some things not all things.
It seems you're making a war on people thinking that they do ALL things, but nobody thinks that.
And in your War you try to diminish the things that actually are possible.
Why do you do that? What's your motivation?
My point is that it's never over. It will still be worth working to overthrow the regime.
