  • they have to be mishandled, uncleaned, and not properly stored

    I don't see any evidence to suggest the guy was maintaining any of his kit properly.

    guns generally don’t just “go off”

    They can and do when mishandled, which is why gun safety exists to begin with.

    "Don't point a gun at anything you don't intend to shoot" is Rule 1 for a reason. And if he was playing with the gun like a toy, it's very easy to believe he fumbled it. The stories of children setting off guns by playing with them are more numerous than you can count.

    They can and do. There's chapter and verse on gun safety - handling, cleaning, storage - to deal with the risk of accidental discharge.

    If you treat a gun like a toy (and this guy's testimony certainly sounds like he did), it's very possible to fire it by accident.

  • The problem is that we have no sociological or political way to dissuade them from holding that opinion publicly.

    Might even argue that we've created a number of powerful incentives to encourage people to hold the opinion publicly.

    Also a staunch Zionist and a huge fan of AI. She took the seat after redistricting swung it from 60/30 R to 51/49 D.

    If you wonder why people despise Democrats, this woman is a textbook example of why.

    They see over 300k tourists a year, despite being one of the hardest countries in the world to visit. By comparison, San Diego sees around 600k visitors annually. And I can get there with a $200 plane ticket.

  • Sounds like you’re using some fascist technology, friend.

    One of the consequences of living in a fascist state while surrounded by fascist sychophants, unfortunately.

    Be more discriminating in your choice of technology suppliers, I guess?

    Do what you can, but don't fall into the trap of individualist consumerism. Blaming the slaves for working on the plantation only serves fascist ends.

  • You’re pointing out brands.

    I'm pointing out corporations founded and financed by fascist networks and leaders.

    The OP is pointing out technology. Technology cannot be fascist.

    Modern AI tools are extensions of their corporate parents. They are some of the least host-agnostic technological advances made to date. Their construction, their access, their modes of function, their material output, and their waste product are all informed by the ideological motivations of their primary sponsors.

    In the same way that a car becomes an anti-pedestrian agent of social change and reshapes the territory to accommodate it, the technology of AI reshapes the material conditions of its associated workforce and the function of its output. These changes are fascist in character, in the same way parking lots and highway overpasses and suburban neighborhoods are made into tools of segregation and eugenics.

    They don't have to function that way, but they become so when they are implemented by business executives with fascist motivations. So the Ford Motor Car does more than just exist as a piece of technology. It functions as a tool of social oppression. In the same vein, the Olinia moves us in the opposite direction.

    Technology can and has been developed to serve fascist ends. The engineering behind an object can explicitly serve a political agenda.

  • Cars are fascist-backed technology.

    Ford cars are certainly fascist-backed. Volkswagons, too. Idk if I'm going to stick the label on the Olinia or the Renault.

    So are computers.

    The Chilean Fascist Augusto Pinochet famously shot all of his country's computers for being Communist.

    Highlighting such a fact is irrelevant.

    Weird that you'd bring it up. Weirder that you'd get so many of your facts wrong.
