I've just had a thought:
There's a little country where the way its leadership still hasn't been all voted out and put behind bars for life is that it constantly invents new subjects for discussion. Some outrageous, some showing them in good light, but the point is that everyone forgets the real bad things they've done (they are basically a collaborationist puppet government of a neighboring fascist country).
I wonder if it's today's world as a whole showing itself in that little country.
I've recently read an article seen on Lemmy, suggesting that the "AI" hype is the same. https://theluddite.org/#!post/ai-hype - found it. The conclusion is very important.
They are wasting enormous amounts of energy to make those "AI"s, collect training data and so on, to make oligopolized platforms and industries shittier and shittier.
But we are wasting our energy, which is much more limited, to track myriads of false targets. We are like an air defense system being saturated.
No one has ever won a war by sitting in defense. We must search for critical joints to attack.
Also no, voting for one of two candidates presented to you in some election is not that, neither is arguing for one of two sides in a discourse presented to you. There are better and worse choices there, but that's not what attack means.
