You can spin up your own Bluesky instance

…which is still managed by the Bluesky central server and can’t connect to peer instances without that server.

They’re also used to describe some enbies

Any time the police train an AI to predict crimes, it becomes racist. It turns out, harassing black people is statistically an effective way to predict crime. Because centuries of harassment, profiling, oppression, slavery, and et cetera have created the socioeconomic conditions to produce crime.

Likewise, if your goal is purely to prevent conflict in an amoral way, you should indeed exclude all neurodivergent people. Autistic people could misunderstand social norms. ADHD people could fail to honour commitments. BPD people could cause drama. NPD people could demean others. Schizophrenic people could imagine threats.

You’re right, it’s mathematically effective to trust the neural network heuristic in your head to tell you which people are trouble. It’s also wrong. It’s discriminatory. You will legitimately solve problems by excluding people who are different, and you will also deny those people an opportunity to show they are more than meets the eye.

If you had a trump-like figure put in front of you for 5 minutes, how much would you be able to figure out in that 5 minutes? Quite a lot I’d say

I don’t need microexpressions to tell that Trump is a liar. Everything that comes out of his mouth is a lie. Billions of neurotypicals have seen him talk, and hate him. You’re not talking about a skill shared by billions of neurotypicals. You’re talking about a special autistic superpower to read people. I don’t think it’s magic, I think it’s profiling.

The idea that you can tell someone’s moral character from microexpressions is hippie woo-woo.

The idea that you can detect the presence of mental disorders from microexpressions is quite valid.

I assume that what you can do is physically possible. Therefore, it must be the latter.

Most of the “reading people” done by neurodivergent people (especially former abuse victims) is simply developing the ability to diagnose people with the same disordered traits as their abuser. For example, if your abuser suffered from anger issues, it’s quickly identifying when a stranger struggles with anger.

However, discriminating against people based on mental disorders is wrong.

You know when a dog was abused by a woman, and then it barks at all women? Yeah, it’s that. Just more specific.

You’re not a human. You’re a fox.

They didn’t vote for Trump, though. The election was stolen.

You think the DNC leadership chooses the president? I thought it was the voters who choose the president. The voters who “pulled the trigger”. That’s why I’m saying you’re complicit. Because you pulled the trigger, and I don’t think you voted for Harris, given how little you care for Palestinian lives.

Sometimes it feels like .world is

Yeah, I’m saying you’re not actively and effectively genocidal like Donald Trump, you’re just dumb and complicit, like Joe Biden.

Four more paragraphs and you still don’t care how many Gazans die.

That’s kind of tautological, isn’t it? “Unless you’re willing to make the world better, there’s nothing you can do that’s going to make the world better”

Nice six paragraph comment. I skimmed it. Looks like none of it addresses the fact that a Trump presidency is in the process of killing millions of innocent people. I guess you just don’t think the lives of minorities are important.

Gorillas actually have tiny balls, and therefore have no biological reason to manspread.

They do it cause they’re dicks

Choosing to be ignorant is a form of stubbornness

What kind of mental failing do you suffer from, that millions of Palestinian, Ukrainian, and transgender lives are nothing to you?

That’s because you neglected the conversational context. The prior comments were calling people with tacticool clothes right wing weirdos. I was using language that implied a contrast.

Yes. Decentralization has many benefits.

There you go. You’re stating your own opinion instead of following capitalism’s laws like a sheep. I’m happy now.
