I mean their post history seems to match, as does their presence here and comment.

I just think some people only believe in ideas insofar as they are in the groups that benefit from said policies.

I gotta be real with you. This comment very much sounds like the delusional super stonk member who think eventually the big system they believe is colluding to fuck them trips up on a technicality and makes them uber rich.

Basically, you're just imagining a reality that wont exist for so many reasons.

The biggest reason is that the AI GPUs do not use DIMMs largely, and even server dimms (ecc rdimms) won't fit in your PC.

More than that, by the time anything does happen, technology will have moved on.

If you're about to say "but I don't have to", Id ask you why you arent on a 10 year old computer right now.

The fact people are blaming the tech rather than the tech bros is a big part of why this keeps happening.

Its the decision of real people that make this situation suck.

Why is this type of privileged exclusionary 1 dimension opinion even upvoted?

There are multiple problems that matter at any given time.

Saying that racism is a distraction ignores the very real people who are being harmed right now because they aren't you, and thus you don't care about them. "I got mine" but about other issues.

Some take for a socialist to have really...

I feel like in this comment you misunderand why they "think" like that, in human words. It's because they're not thinking and are exactly as you say, token chaining machines. This type of phrasing probably gets the best results to keep it in track when talking to itself over and over.

When they lose it needs to be cause they were not left enough they need to lose

This idea that you can punish the DNC by having them lose, is a foot gun.

They are 100% happy with that and it absolutely would not cause them to shift even a centimeter left. If anything, it will shift them right.

The DNC wants to please their corporate donors, and only wants to win half the time.

You want to punish them? Replace them slowly using primaries, state and local politics.

Anything else is shooting yourself in the foot by misunderstanding the incentive structures.

I’m sorry but it is naive to think that misinformed voters will learn the right lesson and vote blue no matter who.

I never said I thought they would. I said its the closest to possible way out.

Nothing is is remotely plausible.

It is more practical to ask for better candidates.

No it is not, because the people you are asking do not care about you.

I think many people in the lemmyverse struggle to deal with what they feel like are conflicting ideas, where they feel like they can't acknowledge that their relationship with the DNC is adversarial, while also acknowledging that the Democrats are the only party of the 2 parties in a system that only supports 2 major parties that can be leveraged to pull the country towards their objectives.

Better candidates have to be voted in over time, and just as I said, you have to slowly shift the party through primaries and local and state politics.

This requires a multifaceted approach. The DNC will not magically wake up tomorrow and hear your pleas. They will not suddenly support your sweetheart candidate.

They understand and largely like the flipping back and forth so that they can please their donors by allowing the country to continue drifting right, while appeasing to voters by offering to undo some of the harm caused by the republicans during the flip flopping.

Asking them won't work, because it fundamentally misunderstands their incentives and goals as an organization steering the Democratic party.

I think significant progress could be seen if they could win 4 times in a row with at least one senate super majority and house simple majority stretch near the end.

This is partially why the world is so fucked. People who care, often utterly refuse to be pragmatic, and expect change to always be sweeping, and happen in an instant.

This is what is responsible for the US getting to where it is. They repeatedly allow democrats to lose, and therefore pull the same cycle of losing, having everyone see how much worse republicans are, and then having the democrats walk back some of the damage the republicans did.

People are so naive and angsty, they feel they need to punish the democrats for not doing what they'd like, and only end up punishing themselves, over and over and over again.

The obvious, only pragmatic way to look at this, is that you need them to keep winning so that they cannot backslide, and then you need to use primaries and state and local politics to actually shift them leftward.

Literally nothing else is practical or will work, but people on this site would rather rant about issues than fix them.

The teleportation is obviously most powerful in terms of exploits

The dog could bring about the most technological advancement

I think Ill go for the eye color change though, because its so uncommon to have different eye colors.
