  • Because the particular cadence and style looks like ChatGPT output. It follows a particular pattern of “it’s not x; it’s y”. In this case, the

    This isn’t an oversight; it’s a promise.

    doesn’t even make sense from a literary standpoint. It’s perfectly formatted with the semicolon (which few humans understand how to use) and the boldface that excludes the full stop, but it just doesn’t mean anything at all. It just follows the style template.

    The next sentence (“… if your work can’t leave the building … the only way to prove that later … is if the software never gave it anywhere to go”) also doesn’t make any sense. No person writes like that. Like what? It sure sounds reassuring but really, what am I supposed to understand from this? That LibreOffice is an offline app? Yes but who the fuck would explain it that way?

    We know this is likely ChatGPT in particular because of how it uses emojis: opening sections, terminating conclusions, but never interspersed into a paragraph (which is something a certain segment of humans tend to do).





  • As a non-American, I agree. Trump didn’t have institutional support either, he was a meme candidate. Turns out having an actual base is more important than being the least offensive to the most amount of people.

    What’s more, the perception of being the anti-establishment vote was a tailwind for Trump. The non-voting block is a third of all eligible voters, those people don’t get out to vote because the unions tell them to, they’re only going to vote if they feel like there’s an actual chance of representation.

    Progressives should stop apologizing to centrists and moderates. Listening to an placating these people is what got us here in the first place. And if, in the choice between AOC and Trump they choose Trump, then they weren’t really moderates to begin with.
