  • I like to think that there are two versions of this “hard working elite”. 1. Is the worker and 2. Is the owner

    When these people are working and no doubt they work hard as a worker they enjoy their pay for their work. They are considered a proletariat imo.

    But they also enjoy the surplus from the work of their employees. And this version of them is the bourgeois.

    We can commend the worker side of them (for which they are already receiving a wage) while at the same time condemning them for the owner side of them.

    Because at the end of the day, any surplus the owner is getting because of being an owner is exploitation of the workers.














  • Hey i wanted to buy a keffiyeh but amazon had so many that looked like it but didn’t have the authentic prints i think. Do you happen to have any links to authentic ones? Also i am in the EU and i occasionally take part in local “palestine speaks” protests, will start being more politically active once I have the citizenship stuff figured out.

    Another question, do you know any organizations that fight for palestinian rights that are registered in EU? That also accepts donations? Usually here, an organization is registered here, any donation to such non-profit org gets tax benefits which usually mean it will increase the amount people donate.




  • Meta has also released many top tier model to the open source community. To say “meta only oppose openai cuz they wanna create a service of their own” is quite frankely uninformed.

    Meta is the reason so many researchers are able to work and make AI accessible to the everyday people. Without llama models, so much of research would not have been possible cuz openai never release their stuff under the guise of “safety”.

    Openai wants to monopolize and charge us whatever they want. And this going for-profit was part of their plan from the beginning. If only meta had not released their top tier models for absolutely free, openai would have had complete monopoly.

    Also saying for profit structure would allow them to have more fund is like saying having a gun will allow a robber to have more funds.

    The funds will come from consumers, for profit would mean they will have an easier time ripping off the people without too much scrutiny
