“That they even asked this question is evidence of the bias — the agenda — in their poll. Who made age an ‘issue’? The credulous Times falling into the right-wing’s projection. This is not journalism. Shameful," Jeff Jarvis posted on Threads. He’s currently the Leonard Tow Professor of Journalism Innovation at the CUNY Craig Newmark Graduate School of Journalism, Darcy pointed out.

Complaints grew more recently after the Times paraphrased Trump’s rambling non-answer while speaking to The Economic Club of New York. In the report, the Times reshaped his language to make sense of what he said. The reality of the comments was that none of it made sense, according to critics.

They were accused of “sane-washing” Trump’s comments.

Fascinating and predictable that the Times (or anyone else) hasn’t mentioned it. Linked posts show pictures etc.

Readers left online complaints and cancelled subscriptions before direct protests began. Their demand, according to one civil rights lawyer, is to stop “sane-washing” Trump.

The activists had bright yellow signs with words the Times has avoided using in reports such as “lies,” “convict” and “felon.” The group had one large black banner across the group reading “stop normalizing Trump.”

Fucking beautiful.

Absolutely. Damn I’m so happy to see this.

Federal officials

As of 2023, no nominee of the Green Party has been elected to office in the federal government.

State officials

As of 2024, 8 Greens have held state-level office. However, only 3 were elected or re-elected as Greens.

As of 2024, no Greens currently hold state-level office.

Four current Mayors are listed, though only one “ran as green”. Seventeen Greens are in city and county councils.

They won’t get far because of the sycophantic boards.

Heads up. All your jobs are moving to India.

Expect it.

Probably a lot of winning and Jesus?

So it won’t work. Okay then, we’re on the same page there.

Adding to the self-harm, Vance indicated that the Trump health-care plan would allow insurers to resume denying coverage for preexisting conditions. Trump himself proclaimed that he would address high food prices by barring food imports—a policy guaranteed to raise costs instead. All but two Senate Republicans got baited into voting yesterday against a law to protect in vitro fertilization from state-level abortion restrictions. Meanwhile, Republicans in the House seem to be stumbling toward forcing a government shutdown because Trump vetoed their own plan to fund government operations through the November election. That’s all just in a single week.

Cripes. Remember when that was every fuckin’ week? FFS how are these cultists so goddamned stupid? Massive propaganda and cult brainwashing would seem to only go so far.

We said that in 2016 too.

Oh, how we laughed.

Ha! Ha!

And you’re completely aware that won’t work?

Thinking “Cognitive dissonance doesn’t exist”, is one way to experience cognitive dissonance.

I have no doubt the polls are off. I also have no doubt the election for President will be painfully close. Whether that’s in swing states, republiQan “State Elections Cheating Board”s, fake electors, or MAGA terrorism.

There is zero benefit to thinking it will be a walk-off home run for Harris at this time. I’ll be more than happy to revisit it after she is inaugurated.

perhaps at one point, it will begin to understand

Nope! Not unless one alters the common definition of the word “understand” to account for what AI “does”.

And let’s be clear - that is exactly what will happen. Because this whole exercise in generative AI is a multi-billion dollar grift on top of a hype train, based on some modest computing improvements.

A fifty year old maxim, to be clear. They “just now” “found that out”.

Biggest. Scam. Evar.

AIzheimers?

I see your needless pedantry and raise you abrasive grammarian.

Of course! An ChatGPT is an ouroboros, ChatGPT what is an ouroboros.

The fact that they’re not doing that but just going straight for an unwinnable Presidential election tells you a lot.
