    My dad was like “She’s one of the good democrats. Plus she’s hot!”

    Her looking good (for a politician) is also a big part of the appeal tbh and she probably knows it

    You seriously overestimate the capabilities of AI if you think entire fields like geology could be automated. Furthermore, you seem to imply that AI will be able to program and design AI and robots. That is going into sci-fi territory.

    Tulsi's Pros

    • Pro Choice
    • Medicare for all
    • Some kind of criminal Justice reform
    • Financial regulation
    • gun control
    • Anti-Regime Change

    Tulsi's Cons

    • War On Terror and Drone Enjoyer
    • Border Militarization
    • Zionist
    • Hindutva
    • Right Wing Culture Warrior

    Sounds like a slightly left Paleocon

    Software which writes software already exists

    1. Who writes the original oftware
    2. That's less writing and more performing simple programming tasks based on guess work fed by big data
    3. Why do the biggest corporations with incredible computing power still hire programmers and software engineers?
    4. Can the AI converse with a client, extrapolate the needs from (and identify shortcomings in) the client’s requests, and then articulate those (often rectified) demands into code?
    5. Can it maintain itself? Can it recognize its own errors, can it correct its own errors, can it reflect upon its errors and bugs and thinking biases?

    Once again: Sci-fi territory if you think human labor can get eliminated by this "in not so far future' as the bozo claimed

    I don't forsee elimination but do think there will be fundamental changes in the role of workers from production to maintenance, starting in wealthier countries. Over the century

    if you swap Hindutva w/ Christian Nationalism, you basically have early 1900s american paleoconservatism before market obsession changed the course of what "conservative" meant. that said i dont think tulsi really believes many of these positions, she only believes them relative to/contrarian to other culture war positions and actors.
    one of the defining parts of early 20th century paleo-conservatism was that in theory (at least on an individual basis, not party-wise ofc), it wasnt strictly ideologically aligned and cared only about results rather than underlying ideological alignments. you'd never really see that in a modern american political landscape

    edit: should add what we now consider paleoconservatism retrospectively, not that it was called such at the time

    Marxist thought is highkey self help. I’ve learned so much about my personal value and myself. Marx causes you to a***yze and critique yourself but also the world.

    (average internet conservative) the pareto principle is why communism could never work because only a small percentage of the population can actually achieve anything
