Hey now, let’s not get too hasty! As reasonable centrists, I think we can all agree that the FDA testing for asbestos in baby powder is 💯 comparable to the 3-letter agencies committing war crimes and immiserating the global south. /s

It is very funny that they’re using the labour of random public sector employees to launder the reputation of ghouls that have meaningful political power.

As long as we’re able to hold BOTH sides “accountable.” nerd

I have ADHD and cycle through phases of hyper fixation pretty quickly. The algorithm you’re describing might be built for people like me (sorry!).

I find that my algorithm tends to recommend videos based almost exclusively on content from about 3 of my most recent fixations. I can usually change it up pretty quickly though. I think the trick is having a fairly robust set of playlists that I revert to whenever the algorithm fails me. This might provide some more insight to help train the algorithm, though it probably depends on a bunch of other factors.

Whenever showing me content similar to my most recent views doesn’t work, the algorithm usually just defaults to showing me cat videos. Which I’m pretty pleased with, cat videos are easily the best thing on that site.

They function as a permanent underclass

They’re going do the same shit as the reddit volunteers, where every reddit-logo mercenary was claiming to be a “medic.”

And I won’t stand by, we won’t let up

Of course not, you’re an active aggressor. This isn’t a promise this is a threat.

I also think that they may be targeting germany because if I remember correctly, a significant chunk of american weapons are sent through US military bases in germany before arriving in the Middle East. Germany is weaker than the US but halting weapons transfers through there could still have a disproportionate ability to reduce israel’s ability to commit genocide.

That’s a fair point!

I think it could be the -ese at the end. “A chinese” has the same weird vibe whereas “a korean” sounds better, so I don’t think it’s (necessarily) the history of bigotry against East Asians that makes it sound off.

To me, the -ese ending kinda implies that the speaker is referencing a group. Words ending in -ese seem to lean more plural by default and using them to refer to singular individuals feels off, at least in my opinion. English is a very strange language though and I could very easily be wrong.

I got recommended this video and I thought I’d share it here. They included a linktree in the video’s description in case anyone wants to spam the organization’s funders.

I was also wondering if anyone here has had any similar experiences with non-profit organizations. How do you agitate and organize in an environment like this?
