  • So to get this straight:

    You are against making studying more accessable for less wealthy people because that would mean taxing the general public and that is a wealth transfer from poor to rich?

    You understand that it would allow poor people to study and consequently make it less relevant how wealthy you are to be able to study. Resulting in much more a merit based system than wealth based system.

    You understand that by giving more people access to completing a university degree, you get more people with university degree. So e.g. more doctors, more doctors cheaper prices.

    And of course, you can make the tax based on whether or not you have an university degree. Now you could call it a wash but obvious it would a display of great ignorance about the practical options that exists. In such a system, you don’t need a loan, so you don’t need to pay interest, you don’t need someone who is willing to grant you the loan, temporary unemployment would be less of an issue…

    And these are the reasons why poor people don’t study.



  • The whole argumentation fails apart if you ask yourself a simple question, is the meme transformative to the art that it is using. As you already stated, “in a way the creator never foresaw” highly implies a transformative nature.

    But isn’t ai art transformative? Oh it might be. But well, the company making the ai, stole art to create the model. There is no transformative step between the art piece and the version of the art piece that they use to train the ai. It is stolen art but not because the model steals, but because the model is built on stolen art. Everything that an ai model can produce is based in stolen art. So any similarities are not a little reference to some other art piece but stolen art. As the whole model is based on similarities, it produces exclusively content that has similarities to that stolen art. And if everything is a reference to stolen art, the ai art become effectively stolen art.

    But what about people and their faces? Yeah i don’t think you should use/make those memes, unless the people are public figures. But not because it is stolen art, as the memes tend to be transformative, but because everyone has a right to privacy.


  • I am serious!

    I know the name kid rock. I don’t know a single song of his, like I don’t know that it is his at least. And while I have seen his face recently, I couldn’t tell you who that people in the meme was without the label.

    I seriously don’t know that guy at all. I am not denying his legend title to be mean or rude to him. I just think I would know a music legend.






  • Well they are slightly vague terms, so please don’t feel stupid. A shocking amount of people who think they know, don’t know.

    Left wing politics are generally about a rejection of hierarchy of people. Consequently, they tend to be interested in an international community because we are all the same and deserve the same. As freedom is something that everyone wants for themselves, the left tend to be in favor of an equally free community, e.g. freedom to love.

    Right wing politica are generally about hierarchy of people. But not because the hierarchy is necessarily the point, but it tend to be in favor of maintaining the current state, Which just happens to be hierarchical. And usually everything get viewed from a hierarchical pov. E.g. nationalism is a hierarchical view of country and people, your country and its people above other country and their people.

    Obviously you could point at the historical stance of us republicans that they want a small government and argue that a small government creates less of 2 class citizens, the law markers and the citizens. But the left would point out that a small government just enables the powerful people to exploit the weak people and create more 2 class citizens.

    On the left: The strong hierarchy in the previous attempts of “communism” is the reason why some people will say that true communism was never tried. Other will argue that you need a little bit of authority to run a communustic state.

    So the whole thing is a little more complex than “freedom” and “restrictions” and who supports what “restrictions” when.

    You are missing the point where a man with the most powerful position on the planet, more than twice the woman’s age, made her feel special by the attention that he gave her at 22 years of age. The human brain is not fully matured until at least 25.

    Having that big of a power difference and age difference is huge.

    And you missed the point where he broke his promise to his wife and she broke no promise. You don’t know what bill told her what his deal with Hillary was. So why judge her for a crime that she didn’t commit?

    Edit: I forgot to mention, as the fucking president of a country, he has the responsibility to be a role model. He should display his good “christian” morals and not break the 10 commandments.
