“We know this because if we put you in an MRI [magnetic resonance imaging] machine and you recall something from your childhood, we see a pattern of activity, and if we ask you to imagine a future scenario — going home tonight and having dinner, for example — the same areas are activated,” he explains.

Ignoring that when asked to remember Big Bird at Disneyland, most people are able to “remember” it.

It’s very likely they’re creating false memories than restoring forgotten ones.

It’s insanely difficult to tell real/fake memories apart, and I just don’t think we can do that with mice. Like, we can barely do it with people we can talk to …

Kash Pattel keeps trying that and it’s not working…

If one circle is blurry, it can look like a Venn diagram.

As it gets more focused, it looks like the Venn just overlaps more than it did originally.

Then one day, everyone’s like “wait a minute, it’s been a single blurry circle the whole time” and everyone can see it.

It’s not common usage now, but has before. So maybe they switched it up on accident, but if it was intentuonal then it wasn’t necessarily wrong. They just meant as the differences get more defined, we realize they aren’t really differences.

Remember how people said it was unrealistic in the Alien franchise that the rich and powerful would have amazing unbelievable tech, while 99.99% of the population got by on 1980s tech that still had vacuum tubes and monochrome screens?

I know it was a retcon to explain the tech in the first movies, but they might be on to something.

There’s only so many rare earth materials for high tech shit, and the wealthy are going to drive prices up to the point they’re the only ones that can afford it.

Literally the reason they got Maduro is no one thought they’d be stupid enough to try this.

Because the fact is, military crossing borders accidentally is pretty common, now when US troops do it, they’re getting capped because they’re a credible threat, even if an ally.

1. Humans

2. Understanding what modern “ai” is

If you wanna read the whole thing deep, visit my main community “BharatReforms” and join it for further similar and informative updates.

Just so everyone is aware what “Bharat Reform” actually means:

It’s a far right extremist pro-Modi movement in India, which is the same the other communities OP moderates, just slightly less blatant to ease people into the hate.

Hindutva, right-wing ethno-nationalist political ideology that defines the cultural identity of India in terms of Hinduism and desires to make India an overtly Hindu nation-state. The term Hindutva was first defined in the early 1920s by Indian nationalist activist and politician Vinayak Damodar Savarkar. Today it is most closely associated with the Bharatiya Janata Party (Hindi/English: Indian People’s Party; BJP), one of the main political parties in India, and the Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (Hindi: National Volunteer Organization; RSS), a nonpolitical Hindu nationalist paramilitary organization. Hindutva supporters, or Hindutvavadis, claim to advocate for India’s significant Hindu-majority population—as of 2011 India was 79.8 percent Hindu, 14.2 percent Muslim, and the rest a mix of Christians, Sikhs, and others—and seek to redefine the idea of secularism enshrined in the Indian constitution in terms of Hindu rights.

Hindutva as an ideology must be understood as distinct from Hinduism as a religion—not all adherents of Hinduism subscribe to Hindutva—and Savarkar’s original definition asserts Hindutva as an ethnic category and eschews a specific religious connotation. In current practice the ideology tends to be strongly pro-Hindu and staunchly anti-Muslim. However, supporters often define Hindutva in purely cultural terms as a “way of life.”

It’s like rolling up MAGA and Zionists into one group

It ain’t that deep…

1. trump seized Venezuela’s oil

2. trump suddenly has a problem with people buying Russian oil

He wants them to buy “his” oil. But Venezuela has all that oil because it’s heavy crude that needs specialized processing. That means Russian oil is way cheaper. Now it’s not.

He’s not thinking streets ahead, he can only handle one step at a time.

I said it right after Venezuela, it was a one time thing.

No country would fire first on America, because what’s the worst that could happen if they didn’t?

Now that ‘they abduct you and your family and take you to America’ is an option, countries are going to shoot first and risk war.

We’re going to see UN stuff move over to Europe as well, leaders aren’t going to want to risk setting foot here.

The White House did not immediately respond when asked for further details and a list of the organizations.

Silver lining, it was probably only 3-5…

It all starts with a little bill call the Telecommunications act of 1996…

And yeah, loads of people said it would lead to this shit.

But Silicon valley gave a shit ton of money to the Clinton’s for the Internet part, and telecoms for the part doing away with monopoly regulations.

The solution is simple: Everyone everywhere needs to classify Xitter as a porn site

I think a large part of it’s popularity has become the porn, because it passes all those filters. Especially since Musk backed conservatives are blocking porn in red states, but as far as I know, never twitter.

Treat it like a porn site and lots of Republicans need to give up their ID to show they’re old enough. They can’t VPN around it because social media hates VPN

But that doesn’t leave many options for the victims. Maddie, who said she’s a 23-year-old pre-med student, woke up on New Year’s Day to an image that horrified her. On X, she had previously published a picture of herself with her boyfriend at a local bar, which two strangers altered using Grok.

I’ve thought a lot of things would kill twitter…

But if every time a woman posts a picture of herself, and neckbeards reply asking twitter AI to sexualize her, and the AI responds right there with it where everyone following the original account can see…

I truly don’t understand how or why any women are still using it.

Still, on the long list of shit we need to fix with America, fixing the patent system is a big one.

Large corps buy them like lotto tickets and try to patent anything and everything they can.

Look how long WB has sat on the Nemisis system because they got a patent a decade ago on it. It wasn’t really a unique idea, but thousands of games have been prevented from doing anything similar.

The reason this stuff is important to understand, is so we can fight it effectively and prevent it from happening again:

Sociopathy is normal human variation…

It’s associated with criminals, because the earliest definitions required criminality, so the only population they’d check were violent criminals, which reinforced flawed beliefs that every sociopath was a violent criminal. Medical community is making progress, but it’ll likely take decades to shake that stigma so it can actually be studied properly.

Shit, a high enough IQ is almost guaranteed to come along with ASPD.

trump is way worse than just someone with ASPD, he’s most likely making a conscious effort not to care about others if it benefits himself, or even enjoys hurting others. Someone with actual ASPD doesn’t get joy from hurting people, they just don’t really care unless they’re putting a conscious effort into caring.

Which many do. But many people without ASPD want to cause pain, because they’re shitty people and fully understand what the people they’re hurting feel, if trump couldn’t feel the suffering of others in anyway, he wouldn’t go out of his way to hurt so many people.

It’s crazy how many people try to be smug about this.

All you’re doing is telling everyone it took shit this blatant and obvious for you to notice if you think this is a new problem.

I understand being ignorant of another country’s system of government, but how do you not know all the fucked up shit that’s been happening before this to think it’s new?

The “big 3” have been doing this shit for centuries, and before that it was just different countries.

Shuffling the countries around like you want to won’t solve shit. It just perpetuates the system itself…

Have you put any thought into this?

I think this study simply looked for generalizations of who would be most susceptible to CTs and wasn’t trying to focus on proving who is a ‘believer’.

The foundation of the study was flawed because “conspiratorial belief” isn’t always a bad thing, because real life conspiracies are a thing.

If they were looking for problematic conspiratorial beliefs, they should have used questions that correctly isolated those.

This research is completely worthless, which is so rare it’s almost impressive.

To reach their conclusions, the study authors focused on the idea of cover-ups, the belief that organizations and governments deliberately hide the truth from the public. They surveyed 253 people from several countries, asking them to rate statements such as “politicians usually do not tell us the true motives for their decisions” and “government agencies closely monitor all citizens.”

Uh…

Someone should let the researchers out of the lab occasionally…

If anyone disagreed with:

“politicians usually do not tell us the true motives for their decisions” and “government agencies closely monitor all citizens.”

Then they either live in some random Nordic utopia, or they’re the crazy ones.

Like, an international child rape ring involving multiple world leaders is the biggest news story of the decade, but only two people went to prison over it and one is about to get pardoned.

It’s 2026 and you’re crazy if you don’t believe in at least one conspiracy.

You need an LHD to do that, and the Iwo is already on its way back.

No, he said US based oil companies will…

From one of the many other posts about this:

In his remarks, Trump did not clarify what it would mean for the U.S. to “run” Venezuela but said that U.S. oil companies were prepared to make major investments in the country.

“We’re going to have our very large United States oil companies, the biggest anywhere in the world, go in, spend billions of dollars, fix the badly broken infrastructure, the oil infrastructure, and start making money for the country,” he said.
