The Potpourri

The “Silent Generation” is actually “The Worst Generation”. They created the Boomers. They took the Boomers away from their “Greatest Generation” parents. They literally and figuratively were Charles Manson to the Boomer Squeaky Fromme.

These opinion poll results mean little since they are merely regurgitated talking points from leftist media and academia, rather than being based on an examination of facts and the application of reason. As such, they are ephemeral and can be readily reversed by counter-propaganda.

Seizure of the means of cultural production is the key to reversal. Musk’s acquisition of Twitter is a first step. Crippling USAID and the Department of Education are next steps. There’s a long road ahead but it took the Left many years to complete their takeover of the institutions. Success is by no means guaranteed but it is possible.

This poll dates from five years ago. Longitudinal data on the favorability of the term socialism vary by about 10 percentage points over the interval 2018 to 2020 (p 13), which illustrates the volatile nature of these opinions. Who knows what the results might be five years on.

X alignment analysis: good, evil, lawful, chaotic

Awwww! So sweet!

Neutral Good
Lawful-Chaotic: 0
Good-Evil: -50

@pjturmel portrays himself as a family-oriented individual and a computer geek with a background in electrical engineering and entrepreneurship. This suggests a level of responsibility and commitment to his family, indicating a good alignment. However, the lack of strong indications of strict adherence to laws or rules in his tweets makes him lean toward neutrality on the lawful-chaotic axis. Thus, I would assess his alignment as Neutral Good (0, -50) which reflects a balance of personal interests and concern for his family and others.

I was labeled a True Neutral (whatever that means)

I have “strong opinions leaning toward neutral evil”

edit: I have noticed more ‘conservative’ opinions score higher on the ‘evil’ scale

I call BS on this thing. Many of the people I follow are in the chaotic/evil corner. That includes Musk and DataRepublican. It also includes other totally reasonable researchers.

I wonder what their definition of robot includes. Do automated checkouts count? Tap to pay is a programmable, precise automation that allows stores to process customers faster. Are all cars that have some self driving capability? How about self driving tractors? Or crop spraying drones? How about an automated article?

I think most people think of a robot as the humanoid looking thing versus robotics which is programmable automation.

This type of automation has and will continue to put more people out of work than a humanoid looking robot.

I really dislike when people do not appropriately label a graph.

But of course she is! ?Do you really believe for one second that Gavin Useless would allow these “mostly peaceful protests” to continue if they were in Hollywood, Beverly Hills, etc. Of course not! This is Far Left virtue signaling, nothing more. Note that Newsom actually went to court to try to keep Trump from squashing these “MPP’s”. How’s that for hypocrisy.

Greg Gutfeld made a good point about Newsom seeking an injunction against Trump with a judge in SF instead of LA regarding national guard
