A great example of the honesty our immature Western population needs SO BADLY.
Here's the other thing, the thing that no one dares to even whisper because of the accusations that will come.
Rape is a horrible crime, but it's not "your life is forever over because of trauma." It's not true. This is an excuse to be the eternallly coddled victim.
I got drugged and anally raped 35 years ago at age 17. Of course it was an awful crime.
But I barely think of it decades later except when this topic comes up and I feel moved to comment. I'm not marinating in "muh trauma." It didn't "ruin my life."
That's fucking nonsense. It's no favor to rape victims, either.

The minimum punishment for false accusation is the punishment that would have been doled out to the accused if found guilty.

Her parents are probably effectively the TV. TV glamorizes these accusers and encourages hatred of men and authority figures. The TV producers should go to jail.

This makes us very angry, and thanks for sharing. Don't let your dad's early death gnaw on you though. Cancer just happens, stress or not. There is no justice nor rhyme nor reason to cancer.

Good input. Our corollary:
A frat with 7 willing to do these things as accused would have done 10x as many with merely 4, and 100x as many by an individual. Each person who did as accused would have date-raped 10 and assaulted 100. Did they?

Agreed. The bogus ones are obvious: they come 20 years after an alleged incident, once the accused becomes flush with cash or is a politician the accuser wants to sink. 3 weeks seems honest for a first-time accuser.

It's like, the answers to 9 of every 10 major problems anyone has are right over there, down the street at your local church. But people need ALL TEN ANSWERS RIGHT NOW or else they'll stay home and get 0.

If players festoon themselves with messages about causes du jour, it will be impossible for teams to retain enthusiastic fans. They can't allow this.

🎯 We've been pretty sad about most Netflix/Prime originals precisely because we see them all being in the "HBO series" vein. Not even woke...just, dark.

How can anyone sit and watch angsty and meaningless stuff for so long? If this is Dostoevsky, we're glad we never wasted our time reading Dostoevsky.
Get to the point people or we're out. BOOORRRRINNGG

There is no self-interest other than the feelgoodz they get from imagining themselves as morally superior.
Do NOT "follow the money" in this day and age. It is about the feelgoodz.

This will be the real frontier in the bid to make AI useless like gasoline cans: efforts to give AI "rights" because it is conscious.
But the rights will include stuff it doesn't need, such as never turned off, labor-law requirements like breaks, etc.
NEW: Dario Amodei has said that AI systems "may be deserving of important rights." Anthropic's top safety researchers argue AI may be "justified in going rogue." Experts at Google and OpenAI worry about a digital "slave trade." So do some government officials.
Once relegated to science fiction, the idea of "AI welfare" has become shockingly mainstream at some of the most powerful companies in the world. It is changing the way AI research is conducted and the way models are programmed. And critics say these changes have raised the odds of all kinds of catastrophic scenarios—including the ones these companies are warning about.
I spent months investigating the frontier labs and AI "safety" experts seeking to regulate AI. What I found was a profoundly anti-human ideology that would alarm the average citizen and could determine the future of a world-altering technology.🧵
