From Constructive 

AI discussion here has been poisoned, and increasingly poisons the entire site, and the moderation is largely to blame.



For years there's been an alleged moratorium (one of only three policies in the so-called "Official Policy Log") that limits all AI-related discussion to the OT, saying all other threads must be limited to major, pressing news and pre-cleared by a mod. It also sets guidelines for treating everyone from artists to ML researchers with mutual respect. I'd prefer a more open discussion policy, but this seemed reasonable enough at the time as a way to take the temperature down and stop AI fights from taking over the site.



I tried following this policy earnestly, but soon found it hollow. I've had requests to post major news denied or ignored. When I did get rare permission to make a thread on a major topic, it was closed due to other users sniping at each other -- and rather than actioning those people, I was personally blamed for the bad behavior by the general manager for framing the thread *too neutrally*. Public insult on top of hours of work down the drain. This policy has also been vigorously enforced against even vaguely educational threads or ones asking for help or advice on the topic.



These shutdowns wouldn't be so grating if they were across the board. But hostile AI-related threads based on random op-eds, social media witch hunts, vague venting, and other insubstantial ragebait have run absolutely rampant. Literally hundreds of them have been posted in the last year.



"Just report them!" you might say. Well, I have, usually directly quoting the policy they're violating, only to be ignored. Not only do mods regularly comment in such threads even after they've been reported, but the mod who announced the moratorium has publicly mocked me for my "report crusade" and outright misrepresented what the policy actually says (no, the ban is not limited to "AI content showcases"). To be clear, I don't necessarily want to shut these threads down, but it's massively irritating to have threads I put work into denied or closed under this "moratorium" (even after getting permission to post) while these explicitly disallowed threads go totally unchecked.



More recently, mods have gone from passively allowing this rulebreaking to directly flouting the policy themselves. Here's a mod posting a thread about AI drama on Twitter. Here's an admin repeatedly saying "fuck everyone who uses AI tools," which violates both the AI policy and general guidelines against making sweeping inflammatory statements against large numbers of people. The latest example: a thread about Bandcamp banning AI music, when the oFfiCiAL pOLicY LoG explicitly names "offsite community bans" as a type of thread that isn't allowed. I reported it, quoting this line verbatim. Result: thread remains open, complete with an Admin comment. Meanwhile, I've been actioned for simply observing the fact that the stated guideline is being pointedly ignored and asking if the policy is even still in effect.



It's pretty obvious that the mod team is extremely anti-AI, but lacks the will and/or the popular support to explicitly mandate their super-hostile stance. So they're going with this shitty half-measure approach where the rules sound reasonable but enforcement is not -- targeting substantive or informative posts for not being hostile enough while rewarding toxic rulebreaking behavior as long as it's negative. The result of this supposed moratorium has been a site swamped with AI "discussion", but only the heated, angry, poorly-informed hatejerk kind that spreads misinformation, witch hunts, insults, and chases off anyone who wants to have a conversation more sophisticated than "fuck this devilry."



For anyone labeling me a shill: I'm in a highly automatable job. I have multiple working artists in my family. I think the biggest AI companies are drunk on hype and blithely shoving AI where it's not helpful (I've literally switched to Linux partly to avoid Microsoft's aggressive CoPilot push). I think the sector is in dire need of greater regulation to protect people's jobs and rights. But I also find genuine use in some of these tools and find their operation and effects philosophically fascinating, while also being well aware of the dangers. It's a complex topic worth discussing seriously, especially in order to educate people about how it works, what it's capable of, and how to effectively guard against abuses and push for effective regulation (and not useless stuff like Glaze or self-defeating stuff like laws that restrict it to the most powerful corporations).



But I absolutely hate how this mod team has poisoned the well of discussion with ridiculously prescriptive enforcement that flouts their own guidelines multiple times a day. It's not even about AI at this point, it's more the pattern of mods proclaiming reasonable-sounding, bright-line rules that they harshly enforce when it suits them, but then goes out the window when it comes to a clear violation that vibes with their personal opinions. Or when they're committing the violation themselves. I'm sure you can think of plenty other examples of this.



Think of it this way: one of the few other "official policies" in the log is a strict rule against use of the c-word that's enforced even against Commonwealth members (where it's considered much less offensive). That word isn't in my vocabulary and I don't mind it being banned. But if mods were regularly warning and banning members for using it on one hand but then allowing it and even using it themselves the same way when it suited them -- especially if it was directly violating the stated exceptions -- that would still be extremely frustrating and toxic to trust.



If you want to designate this site as an Official Anti-AI Zone where hostile threads are encouraged, "too neutral" discussion is forbidden, and mentioning AI use will get you banned, then stop beating around the bush and *do* that. At least it would be honest. But don't make a policy saying one thing and then selectively enforce it based on whether it panders enough, punish people who call it out, and then say we should "just report" -- it basically feels like gaslighting at this point.



On preview: Just checked one more time and sure enough, there's yet another post blatantly violating the policy ("offsite community bans"). Should I bother reporting it? H
ow long until a mod comments in it?

The average american doesn't care or, worse, supports it. The minority that does care, doesn't care enough to do anything about it besides march down a street for 3 hours carrying a witty sign during their free time. The world's best hope is that the monkey with a machinegun they put in charge randomly dies or doesn't point it at them.

I'm an average American who had walked down the street for 3 hours protesting.....what else can we do?

I protest.
I've lost a ton of friends
I don't talk to my mother and father.
I lost my job for speaking about Charlie Kirk on Facebook.

We aren't some unified block even though it might seem that way to the outside world.

Maybe the Democrats and EU should begin working more closely together.....kind of like a Lafayette revolutionary type support....I mean Russia has funded the Republicans?

Good! Any American willing to carry out those orders isn't an American they're a Trumper.

Nope, they are an American.
Raised on American values.
Trump is only in power because of Americans.
i'm so sick of hearing 'this is not who we are' bullshit.

when is it going to sink in?…

I'm American and it's not who I am. Make whatever prejudice statements you need to without meeting me or knowing my experience.

nah man that's just american and always has been.

Clearly y'all don't want Americans here so I went ahead and requested account deletion.

Americans don't deserve the benefit of the doubt, frankly. Stop playing victim while your president is illegally capturing foreign leaders and openly threatens to invade supposed allies. People are entitled to be scared and upset.

Dude I lost my job because of a post I made about Charlie Kirk, have 4 kids, and a sick wife. I'm two months from losing my house. What's your sacrifice?

https://www.resetera.com/threads/danish-troops-told-to-shoot-first-ask-questions-seek-orders-later-if-us-invades-greenland-which-denmarks-defence-minister-confirms-as-protocol.1400104/page-3#post-149802064

Sometimes, just sometimes, everything is not about you.

Yes it's apparently about you and not the American actually living and dealing with it.

Incredible how this forum was able to have empathy for a gentlemen from Venezuela who was experiencing horrific conditions because of the dictatorship in control...however when it's America....apparently I'm trump too...got it.

As I've stated previously, we need help, international support like we had during the revolution. Clearly we don't have it. Look at how fast and quickly our military moves. It's a horrific situation and the international community also needs to make a stronger stance against us. Move ships around Greenland please!!! Get out troops out of your countries if you don't want them there. Protest the bases. Make it impossible for them to exist in Europe. Don't serve them. Don't accept their money.

https://www.resetera.com/threads/danish-troops-told-to-shoot-first-ask-questions-seek-orders-later-if-us-invades-greenland-which-denmarks-defence-minister-confirms-as-protocol.1400104/page-3#post-149807701

You're right. How dare I be upset as a Danish citizen with a wife with Greenlandish roots. This is not affecting me whatsoever.

I'm so sorry that the international community aren't carrying the 175 million Americans that are against Trump, around the streets in lazy chairs so that they can protest and do something to prevent their democracy from dissolving.

Clearly this is about you, and you getting you feelings hurt that the rest of the world expects you to do something when a fascist is taking over.

Getting my feelings hurt? I have literally lost everything.

Im not asking for empathy I was just asking people to consider that were not a unified block by any capacity and we are fighting back in pockets where we can. Yes, a general strike needs to occur.

It seems like just some version of: You deserve it

I have nothing else to add.

The reality of this is far too depressing. I truly wish you the best. I have no animosity towards anyone that stands in the way of this countries leadership and military.

Brave indeed

Americans not making things about themselves challenge: Impossible.

This is the sort of consent manufacturing fascists dream of. If/when Trump invades Greenland/Canada/Mexico/Panama/Colombia (God there's a list isn't there) Americans will line up to say "We would've supported you, but because you're just so mean, we have to support our country and our troops" and fall straight into fucking line.


No you do not, the US needs to be condemned and isolated for their actions and if they dare set foot on foreign soil as an imperial force, then they should face the consequences of it.

I do support you. That's the point buddy. Please come invade and take over I'll be the first one to help.

SOS

https://www.resetera.com/threads/danish-troops-told-to-shoot-first-ask-questions-seek-orders-later-if-us-invades-greenland-which-denmarks-defence-minister-confirms-as-protocol.1400104/page-4#post-150250870

You can define your own personality, that's no problem, no one would stop you from doing that.

What you can't do is redefine words to whatever you like. So that 'American' means everything that's good about the culture , and everything bad about it is now defined as 'Trumper'.

Americans voted for Trump… twice. America has a history of invading and destabilising governments for their own gain, A history of slavery, systemic racism, yadda yadda, all those things, you know the deal. They are part of the American culture, past and present. That's the reality.

Words are Defined by actions, not just what you want. There's all sorts of great things that Americans have done and still do, but those aren't done by 'Americans' and all the other shit is done by 'Unamericans'. That's not how it works. And to pretend otherwise is unhelpful and delusional.

If American soldiers invade Greenland, they are Americans, not 'Trumpers'.

Ok dude let's just go to war and kill each other then. I don't know any other solution. I'm in the damn street nearly every day protesting. I do not know what else to do. I have no idea outside of voting and protesting what I am supposed to do. The only solution seems to be violence which seems to be what people are silently advocating for.

Our leadership is awful just come kill us all. It's what we deserve because of our inaction. Just come over and purge everyone.

Believe it or not there are some people that just want to exist. The fight was brought to me and I'll fight it.

Again, I lost my job for a Charlie Kirk post, and am pretty close to being homeless with 3 children.

I think I most likely deserve it based on this thread

Where should I bring my family so that we may be executed for shit we had no part in.

Fuck you all. Fuck this thread. Fuck America, Fuck Greenland, Fuck, FUCK EVERYTHING.

Something around the lines of what happened to Nepal. Plus a general strike and daily protests country wide.

But I know, won't happen because it's ImPoSsIbLe for X/Y/Z very convenient reasons to do nothing.

I guess once further nothing gets done and the US tries to invade Canada I'll be the one waiting for their troops and a certain death with a hunting rifle in hand. Then, as the enemy's jets will fly over our heads, I'll profoundly reflect about the logistical nightmares it was for US citizens to stop this fascist organization, then nod in agreement that assuming anything could be done prior was, indeed, a stupid, idiotic idea.

Maybe I'll even come back to your post and have a little wholesome laugh, reminding myself of how silly and naive I was to believe something could've been done.

AI derangement syndrome activated

Won't somebody please think of AI?

I generally like the way AI is handled. We could stand to be meaner though.

So much text to complain about the fact there's only one thread where AI jingoism is allowed. The entire rest of the internet is pro-AI, the fact this place isn't is one of its best features. You can go to a thousand other forums and talk about AI and how it's revolutionary and going to change everything and there's no putting the genie back in the bottle and the real impressive stuff is just around the corner and how coders are seeing 200% improvements from using it.



What is it about the evangelical AI supporters that they have to go into every space and preach? It happens constantly in the AI financial thread. Why can't they just leave well alone?

That's a pretty disingenuous take on a comprehensively explained position.



I'm in the 'outirght ban it or do it fairly' camp. The half measure stuff is inconsistent, and more or less a thinly veiled ban anyway.



I was interested in the "Why does AI write like... That?" thread that got shut down because... Reasons?



The de facto policy is openly shitring on AI is permitted but anything approaching neutral (the above one was decidedly AI critical) or worse is immediately shut down.



Fine. But make that the policy and communicate it.

Nah, you're just whining about the mods and the ways you believe you've been personally wronged.

The "comprehensively explained" position was a generational crashout of calling out the moderation staff for having an "anti-AI" bias when it's the site at large that is wholly against it as well.

4 posts in a row. Somethining must have happened. Did you get banned from some subreddit?

remember the Sacred Blueball Rule:

always accuses someone of posting at some website

So this schizo stalks multiple subreddits but doesn’t even post on them? I know he’s too much of a coward to confront people on forums (or even Twitter), but I figured he’d at least be able to handle Reddit echo chamber culture.


Also if you don't want people to think you don't post on x site maybe don't obsessively stalk that site. Or talk like a /pol/ reject. Like I'm supposed to think Nintex isn't a regular /pol/ user who posts racist shit and thinks women peak at 14?

This shit will never ever get better until we take everything from billionaires and completely dismantle current media institutions brick by fucking brick and rebuild them from the ground up.

The country is ruined by billionaire interests and then everyone else here has constant propaganda about why it's good they have all the money and power and you actually feel bed because gay and brown people exist.

I don't see any of that happening peacefully, as scary as the prospect is.

I've done nothing of the sort.







Look, it's obviously part personal grievance, but the overarching point of "here's the policy as the mods have written it, here's how it's been inconsistently applied" seems a fair one, and something I've noticed as well.



Just make the policy "only clearly anti AI threads allowed, anything else in the OT".



It's at least clearer, and there'll be less confusion when otherwise neatrak threads get treated inconsistently.



The forum is clearly anti-AI in general, just let it be anti-AI.

Y'all are marked now

Nah. Keep all the pro-AI posts in one place and then any thread mocking AI should be allowed.



This isn't a "fair perspectives" thing.

[Orange Juice Box]

Fake edit: unrelated but I went looking around my area for a DSA chapter and unfortunately mine went defunct a few years ago. I've been looking into non profit orgs to see what more I could be doing.

I've been cooling on the DSA for awhile, mainly since I had a talk with a party affiliate last year. I think many of the people there have a genuine interest in the common good and the welfare of humanity (although many don't know how revolution works but they're democratic socialists, so eh), but they are also a good case study in why entryism doesn't work.

Trying to flood the Democratic Party with democratic socialists is only ever going to result in those democratic socialists kowtowing to neoliberal democratic interests. Contradiction is in everything; Democrats aren't just going to make themselves obsolete. They like being corporately captured because they don't have to fucking labor. Democrats have access to the money and the connections. They have the power and they can set you up for life. If you want to have access to those treats, then you are forced as the newcomer to renege on your principles when the calls come in. That's why Mamdani has already backed down on his anti-Zionist rhetoric. All that work, all that door knocking, all that social media engagement, right down the drain of typical American politics.

The DSA is meant to stymie revolutionary progress and energy and redirect it back into the system. The way it works now, it is not a viable alternative. A viable alternative must be committed to the struggle of working class politics and thus it must be truly anti-capitalist and internationalist to succeed. It cannot simply be about Ship of Theseus'ing a political party, because that ship will bite back and prevent you from replacing the rotting planks.

You can put the most awful things in a bill, throw in funding for Israel, and at least half of Democrats will still vote for it.

Pelosi already said that we could get Olympus Has Fallen'd and they'd still be sending money to Israel. Not a single American's life on this forum matters in lieu of our government's goals of imperialist expansion, and too many don't seem to realize it still.

Of course the DSA wouldn't be fanatical enough for Nepenthe.  They could actually get a (single) person in the house!  How can you trust any political group campaigning for socialism if they do it with politics?

It's funny that she's the forum oracle doesn't know enough to write off electoralism entirely and that there's a whole bunch of the theory about this. Anything other than the dictatorship of the proletariat will lead to moderation and compromise, that's why the dictatorship is essential. Booshka (rest in power) would have known.

I'm an average American who had walked down the street for 3 hours protesting.....what else can we do?

I protest.
I've lost a ton of friends
I don't talk to my mother and father.
I lost my job for speaking about Charlie Kirk on Facebook.

  

fucking hell

imagine ruining your own life to such a degree over something which you have zero ability to affect in any way at all

just throwing a tantrum and making everyone else hate you for no reason

shutting the fuck up is free? then you still have your fucking job, which you need in order to live?

who was he even impressing by saying something about charlie kirk? did he get 5 minutes of back pats from a discord server, and now they've all long since forgotten his noble sacrifice? meanwhile he financially struggles long after everyone else forgot kirk was even a thing

your own quality of life is the only thing that really matters, practically none of us can affect any geopolitical events, learn to politely disagree or stay silent so you can keep hugging your parents for as long as you have them

sometimes quiet disagreement is even the start of changing minds, force them to choose if they want to be the ones to cut you out of their life, don't be the asshole yourself

I didn't think the avatar I gave Blueball was funny anymore so grok helped me make a new one. It didn't understand the concept of "fascist propaganda" or even "Nazi propaganda" well enough so I had to source from actual Nazi propaganda. You'd think a Nazi AI could handle that one job but apparently Elon is directing it to focus entirely on making pornography of children.

4 posts in a row. Somethining must have happened. Did you get banned from some subreddit?

remember the Sacred Blueball Rule:

always accuses someone of posting at some website

So this schizo stalks multiple subreddits but doesn’t even post on them? I know he’s too much of a coward to confront people on forums (or even Twitter), but I figured he’d at least be able to handle Reddit echo chamber culture.


Also if you don't want people to think you don't post on x site maybe don't obsessively stalk that site. Or talk like a /pol/ reject. Like I'm supposed to think Nintex isn't a regular /pol/ user who posts racist shit and thinks women peak at 14?

Dummy.

I'm sipping wine and walking beaches with highly educated 30 - 40 year olds. 
What are you doing blueball, licking the cum of melody shreds guitar behind a train station?

Not on pol/reddit or any of that shit. I have better things to do. 

Like I'm supposed to think you're not a regular on the furry convention STD list with a restraining order that doesn't allow you to come near any schools. 

I'd invite you for a drink but they'd probably have to send an industrial crane to lift your fat ass out of your parents basement and unfortunately the welfare benefits don't cover such expenses and with too many disabilities to drive you can't make it to the airport anyway.

Your politics I can very well guess. Supports the pro-Hamas climate tankie slop wrapped in the return of communism (this time it'll work!) covered in the grool of dillating resetera members. Not a single original thought because you have an underdeveloped pre-frontal cortex that makes you think Bluey is entertainment for adults.

Hence the nickname Blueball.

N. Korea is a failed state. It continues to exist while its people starve.

N.Korea is not Libya nor Syria nor Yemen nor Afghanistan and so on... Regardless if people were starving or not and in N.Korea they do not.

Because they are nearly self sufficient when comes to food production and of course they import food be it to fill or exceed production gap.

Figure is 12,000 according to CBS News(under management of Bari Weiss) with supposed activist, there is the Sunday Times under ownership of Rupert Murdoch that owns so many newspapers, news sites, radio and TV stations that he might as well manipulate information like an Illuminati and then there is Iran International linked to/ran by Saudi Arabian government, then there is estimate of 5.000 by Human Rights Activists in Iran that receives funding from National Endowment for Democracy.

Literally the first sentence of that story (you can even see it in the auto-embed link Era creates):

Noodles and bread are appearing more often in North Korean diets as the government promotes flour-based foods to address chronic shortages
...
Analysts say the increase reflects a policy push by leader Kim Jong-un to expand wheat cultivation as a way to diversify diets and alleviate chronic food shortages.

Also, from the first link in that post (Nepenthe and some others may wish to avert their eyes):

Why is North Korea’s economy growing? It seems that the single most important factor is the gradual and seemingly unstoppable expansion of the semi-legal private economy. According to the most recent estimates, about 75 percent of North Korean household income now comes not from the state but from assorted private economic activities – activities that are now tacitly tolerated by the government. North Koreans today tend to their very own private plots, run their own food stalls, make clothes, footwear (and even counterfeited Chinese cigarettes) in unofficial workshops, and of course, they trade.

This private economy is massive. Strictly speaking, most of these activities remain illegal under North Korean law, but the North Korean government is unable (and perhaps unwilling) to enforce many of the outdated rules and regulations. Indeed, it may have no other choice since if these laws were enforced another round of starvation (and even a massive rebellion) might ensue.

Wake up sheeple. Kirk got assassinated because his wife's software update failed. He walked in on some spooks doing a hard reset on her. So they hired some satanists to kill him before he exposed the truth. Look into it.

When you lay it out like that it seems pretty obvious.
