  • Serious question to your joke. What is all the animosity against Jews? Seems a lot of conspiracy theories put the blame on them, like they’re some sort of advanced alien race or something.

    -Jewish Space Lasers -Jewish Weather Control -International Jewry and world domination

    Hell, even South Park pokes fun at them. But why them and not any other religion? Is it rooted in the Holocaust and the propaganda Hitler used to justify his actions? Or does it stem from something prior?

    It’s also weird to me that they are considered a race of people as well, instead of JUST a religion.











  • While I agree that there’s is always some sort of fear mongering with new tech as you said, I don’t think they compare to what we’re talking about. D&D is a tabletop game based on a magical world of various races, monsters, demons, etc. It’s also obviously just a game.

    Video games, especially violent ones that are vilified by the media, are still obviously just games played on a screen. VR is getting closer to “real life”, but is still played on a headset, so there is still a divide between in-game and real life.

    With sex bots, they are physical things that are made to look and act like real people. That separation between imagination and real-world isn’t there anymore. For all intents and purposes, once the bot is on and functional it is as close to a real person as technology can create. Now, this tech is not yet a reality. But I foresee that future in the next few years.


  • The biggest danger with allowing people to do whatever they want to a sex bot is that it has the possibility to encourage dangerous behavior in some people to the point where they are comfortable doing it to a real person. Especially as these bots get more and more life-like, from appearances to LLM conversations. Rape fantasies, abuse, etc, are all on the table when no one is around. Now of course, this is an extreme hypothetical, but there are people out there who are not-right in the head and will do this sort of stuff.

    The other part of it is, what’s to stop a business selling life-like sex bots of people who never agreed to that, like big celebrities and social media stars? Sex sells and it’ll be a reality way before regulations are put in to stop it from happening. And even when a government prohibits it, there’s always the black market.

    It’s not even a matter of IF this will happen. It’s a matter of when, and how we will deal with it.

    And while I say all this, I DO believe people should have the right to do whatever they want to their property, in the safety and privacy of their own home. I’m not saying people should not be allowed to buy themselves really fancy sex dolls. For some, it can really be the only way to help with one of the most instinctual needs a human has. Especially in the disabled/disfigured communities, having a way to release that sexual frustration improves their mental well-being.

    But as technology continues to evolve, we have to take into account so the different forms it takes, both the beneficial and the ugly.


  • I am firmly of the opinion that there is SOMETHING Israel has over the US that is probably super classified and super damning. Why else would BOTH parties, in one of, if not THE most influencial voting season in our country, agree on supporting Israel?

    For how much the Republicans stand with Israel (and how many actually don’t care about genocide since pretty much every Neo-Nazi is Republican), it should be the BIGGEST soft-ball issue to run on for Dems to oppose, being the party of “the rights of the people”. But they have the presidency and continue supplying weapons to them for their war engine. No matter how many words are said, actions speak louder.
