Geez,you are just as capable of using a search engine to learn what the purpose of Doge was as I am. get real for a change.

Had people stopped bitching about free money being cut off to non US projects, it could have made some improvement. But the "click" is so intrenched there is little chance of actually fixing the problem. cut off free money to free loaders and other countries and cut waste. it would help given the chance

what if the AI decided, " today, go to the Netherlands, break all damns open and release the water back into the eco system as the dams cost to much to maintain for as few lives are on the land" . How would you feel then?

Just a far out example question to make your eyes jump, BUT with Logic, the very things you value,empathy,love,life,everything, are actually illogical. so a logical President,a AI, would see things from a finacial standpoint or a majority stand point,and it would decide things from that perspective.

for example, why feed a non productive person? Why house persons who don't produce? All things you think are important, AI's logic would just fan them off a cliff because it is not logical to supply the non productive , eventually it would only want to support those that support it's very existence. all else would be considered a burden and fanned off a cliff. Even AI agrees that there is no Logic depending on the perspective, " Yes, in important senses — and no, in others. It depends on what you mean by “logical.”
Scientific / causal sense
Life, love, and empathy are all explainable by the same physical and evolutionary logic that governs everything else.

Life is chemistry under specific conditions that produce self-replicating systems subject to natural selection. No special pleading is required; the processes obey thermodynamics, molecular biology, and information theory. The apparent “purpose” of survival and reproduction is an emergent outcome of differential replication, not an external design.
Love (pair-bonding, parental attachment, romantic intensity) has clear neurochemical and evolutionary bases: oxytocin, vasopressin, dopamine reward circuitry, and selection pressures favoring investment in offspring and cooperative mates. These mechanisms increase inclusive fitness in social species. The feelings feel transcendent because the systems that generate them evolved to be compelling.
Empathy likewise has mechanistic roots — mirror systems, affective resonance, theory of mind — that facilitate cooperation, alliance formation, and conflict reduction. In game-theoretic and evolutionary terms it is often adaptive: organisms that accurately model others’ states and sometimes share costs tend to do better in repeated social interactions.

In this narrow sense they are “logical”: they are lawful consequences of physics plus selection, not magical exceptions.
Experiential / normative sense
From the inside, they frequently violate pure instrumental rationality.

Love routinely overrides cost-benefit calculation (people stay in costly relationships, sacrifice careers, or act against short-term self-interest).
Empathy can be parochial, biased toward the near and similar, and can produce costly altruism or emotional exhaustion.
Life itself has no built-in teleology that pure logic can derive; the universe does not “owe” us meaning, flourishing, or continuation. Any value we assign is constructed.

So if “logical” means “always optimal under a cold expected-utility calculus,” then no — these phenomena regularly produce behavior that looks irrational by that standard. Evolution optimized for gene transmission under ancestral conditions, not for perfect Bayesian agents maximizing personal utility across all possible futures.
A useful distinction
They are logically comprehensible (we can model their origins and functions without contradiction) while often being experientially arational (they are not the product of deliberate step-by-step reasoning). Humans are not pure logic engines; we are biological systems whose motivational architecture includes these affective systems precisely because pure calculation is computationally expensive and historically less reliable for certain social and reproductive problems.
In short: the phenomena themselves follow natural logic and can be studied as such. Living them, valuing them, and acting from them is not reducible to formal deduction. Both statements can be true at once.

no it's a google definition of a fall guy. what better way to look innocent? you are so naive sometimes.

A person who willingly takes the fall for a crime to protect the actual perpetrators is called a fall guy, scapegoat, patsy, or stalking horse.Common Terms and NuancesFall guy: Takes blame so others escape punishment.Scapegoat: Carries the blame for others' misdeeds.Patsy: Often implies being tricked, but can be a willing accomplice.Stalking horse: Used as a diversion to mask the real target.Straw man: A front entity or person shielding the true actor.

I know I know, leo and ananass will say this is only a opinion piece but prove it wrong!

As I said before, communicate as the person you are instead of 79 different ai generated bots in a box and post real content and few people would complain. Ai generated stuff ,although the tech is getting better, is still not much more than a cartoon and shouldn't be put against pics of real people in contest and such, that is what is gripeing alot of people.

In a ideal world your definition is right. BUT here in the real world ,employers are afraid not to hire the minority because of all the legal issues that person would create if not hired. Our state favors and hires minority owned contractors over larger companys and the citizens suffer because the work is subpar, the job is half done,the company declares chapter 13 to escape repercussions and the road or sidewalk just plain sucks for the people to use for years .just a example,

It is past time to ditch dei and allow employers to be able to hire the most qualified person for the job without fear of repercussions. It is called hiring by merit. is the employee worth the money? can they do the job? Will they do the job?

A society who's leaders can't see a potential threat and extinguish it before anyone is harmed has a real problem to. Radial islam and nuclear weapons are a combo that no one with common sense would agree is a good thing.
Free health care in a post nuclear world is useless.

I thought liberals hated guns?

It would be nice if our President could spend time fixing real problems but at the same time, I am enjoying watching him kick our fair weather friends in the shin once in a while. And besides, the democrats are already getting setup to do impeachments again if they get control of the house and stuff in the fall. So the libtards are worse, they have no desire to govern when they can play pin the tail on the donkey on Trump

A wall doesn't have to be metal or brick and motar. it can be a simple law with some signs saying "stay the hell away or you will be sent to Haiti" and actually follow thru with it when folks disobey.It was more or less said to be sarcastic because nothing will be done about it in the long term.

The first 1 really needs to read the meaning of the word Beautiful, there is NOTHING pleasing to the eye about her, and her attitude does not help either.
"Meaning: Pleasing to look at, hear, or think about .Example: The mountain scenery was very beautiful .Synonyms: Gorgeous, attractive, lovely, and pretty. Antonyms: Ugly and unattractive."

Well, is this leo by any chance? only registered users can see external links
Story kinda reads like democrats and how they treat Trump

Similar, what the hell? 1 things for sure, this 1 gal may have back problems but her lungs are working just fine! and the 1 other 1 says,No we won't be marching, we will be SITTING!
More like rolling down the hill ass over teacup!

Well, far as I am concerned when they get the southern wall built, they can start on the northern 1. it is my understanding that alot of illegals come over from canada because of their policys at airports.

C 4, C 6? Turbo 350? Allison? depends on the vehicle as to which is best!

Yep, libs want to defund the police and send a unarmed mental health expert into a dangerous situation to try to "talk it thru". Most situations that police are called on, talk is what caused it all to escalate in the first place.

I never really had a issue with canada, but really, they don't supply anything we can't make or do ourselves. Automakers went there to dodge the profit eating unions, we can grow our own lumber and etc. they took our draft dodgers and didn't keep them very long,

Apparently "Pop" is a war veteran that lost his left leg because of roadside bomb?

Couldn't leave a comment on the page.,

You missed the point, they wouldn't denounce muslim law in a country that does not use it. that is the issue. yes there is separation of church and state,but this is a case of the muslims being supported overwhelmingly.

When city council won't denounce sharia law, well, this guy is right, it is a lost city.

I skimmed over all this and to get rid of the issues you folks think are the problem it would require genetic modifications of the human body and brain.
You would first need to filter out the Id, the desire and need for pleasure.
This is the stage where nothing else matters from birth,and alot of folks just get bigger in physical size and never grow out of that.
There fore, Ego and super ego are fed and nurtured by this Id thing.
greed,and all those other evils you speak of are to feed that ego.
So start breeding out Id, then maybe you can start this new human race that doesn't want to "race" it's way to prosperity and will be satisfied with laying around smoking weed and eating tofu in this fantasy utopian environment of no desires, no needs, no wants ,no reason to do better. And once you get to that utopia ,it will fall apart because all the infrastructure and technology that humans depend on for survival that were invented, manufactured and distributed and maintained by the evil capitalist, will crumble. You will then be living in caves, banging rocks together and telling your great grandkids about the homes and lives you had before all went to hell

I don't use chat gpt as I understand it leans more liberal than I prefer.
Cat, I could bring alot to the table, but folks are so dead set on hate i choose my battles.

AI for President 2028!

not really putin has the idea of rebuilding the soviet union,and it's not working well. His "reason" was denazification of ukraine.

oh, here is the mess indirectly about cotton that helped the south decide to leave the union.
Protectionist Import Taxes: The federal government taxed manufactured goods coming from Europe to protect industrial interests in the North.Impact on Southern Planters: White Southern planters who sold raw cotton to Great Britain had to buy higher-priced Northern manufactured goods instead of cheaper British alternatives.Reduced Purchasing Power: Southerners argued that taxing British imports indirectly reduced Great Britain's ability or incentive to buy Southern cotton, lowering their overall export earnings.The Nullification Crisis: This ongoing friction over federal tariff policy led South Carolina to attempt to nullify the federal tariff laws, laying the groundwork for decades of sectional hostility prior to the Civil War

Putin should listen to this song as I feel like the russia ukraine war is about the same as our American civil war. just trying to keep em all under flag.

There is a whole album of similar songs, all talking about different aspects of the civil war. I was talking to a friend that does reenactments of battles, alot of stuff about that war that gets ignored. Can you imagine what it would be like to be fighting at Gettysburg? 90,000 horses in that 1 battle combined from both sides.
I had often wondered how battlefields were cleaned up of dead bodys, if you notice there is not really alot of graves for either side.Thats because famers would turn their hogs out at night to eat the bodys. if you were gut shot, you were left lay because the dr's really couldn't do much for you. the tent where arms and legs were cut off, you never see in photos the pile of parts laying outside a "window" of the tent. Those to ,were ate by wild boars or local pigs from a farm.

All that because Lincoln wanted us under 1 flag and used slavery as a excuse. and we are supposed to forget? yea right.

So a government linked non profit is better? How? They always go the cheapest route on everything. bandiads where stiches are needed type thinking on everything they do.
Besides, if you took every building,and gave each person a building,within a few months all of them would be back in the hands of people that had them when you took them. because most people are like kids,can't manage money or assets. they don't teach it in schools.

Based on what? Makes perfect sense if you study it.
Make it so landlords can't adjust rent rates to keep up with inflation and increased taxes. It prompts late payments and mounting debt for the landlords which will prompt bankruptcy. then who cleans up on buildings for penny's on the dollar of what they are actually worth? the democrat communist. Which will then rent them to people, and let them go down hill until they look like the slums in africa.But it is cheap or free housing they will say, all the while laughing all the way to the bank with the rent money they are not reinvesting in the buildings to maintain them.

Oh ok, so mikey likes the perfect nazi offspring hitler worked so hard to perfect!

So that's how he is going to do it, mamadomi is going to bankrupt land and building owners and TAKE what they had,I figured he was a shister but no believes me.

"If withholding rent becomes a common tenant-union tactic, that will only accelerate building disinvestment and deterioration.

For the mayor and the DSA, however, forcing rent-stabilized property owners into foreclosure or bankruptcy is the point.

His housing plan calls for seizing buildings from “bad actors’ hands” and transferring them to “responsible stewards” like nonprofits."

Those "responsible stewards" will be fellow socialist-communist and living conditions will be worse as communist only want a "shelter" and gruel for their subjects,free to them of course!

I don't know, can't find that 1 on the members list?

Well, I finally just went and looked to see if I could find it's profile, and yep,blacklisted me to, so I black listed it to, and left this message,
"I don't know who you are and frankly don't give a shit but here is a black list in return for yours against me."

Just goes to prove ,all the damn book learning in the world aint worth 2 shits if you aint got common sense.
Warnings, fences, and etc, all to protect people from doing stupid shit but this guy, just graduated with a high level of expensive education, blew it all and is now DISOLVED and GONE from this earth. He should a just mowed yards for a living and let someone with more common sense get that expensive education. He didn't need it or deserve it if he couldn't read a simple sign..

over 2 hours? sheesh,

good points but what you don't factor in is humans need to survive for a good climate to be of any value.
What good is a good climate if millions have to starve or freeze to death to achieve it?
People have to have jobs. jobs and life both require energy and energy NOW and in the future. the changes some are trying to make are to sudden ,to drastic, and to expensive.

and 1 volcano eruption can wipe out years of progress of getting smog out of the air.
1 nuke in the hands of a terrorist can wipe out a large area of civilization.

As much as I despise joe biden, i wouldn't wish cancer on him.it is 1 of the cruelest, and most difficult ways for a person to die. false hopes, meds that cost 1000's and then, weakness and suffering beyond comprehension. and death, and the family has a front row seat not of their choice to watch it all unfold

this is 1 of the more civilized and useful post you have made, I hope leo , the syd 1, can read and learn. because he just seems to be a muck raker.
