I think there's something of an implicit appeal being made by Weisenthal and other "Save the Bars" supporters which I agree with and am willing to state explicitly:
It's nice to have places which were built before the tyranny of neurotic safetyism, the ADA, and plastic.

Dario reveals the people who called his GPT-2 fears "pseudoscience" in 2019 are now all applying for jobs at AI labs
"I personally was super freaked out by [GPT-2]. I looked at it and I said, my God, you just scale this thing up another factor of a million and it'll be better than humans at everything. This is the defining economic and scientific moment of the modern age. We just don't know it yet. This is going to determine the fate of nations and economies and the future of humanity."
"Maybe 10% of the people around me had exactly the same reaction, and it was often the smartest ones. 90% of the people around me, because GPT-2's capabilities in any particular area were not that impressive, it could translate languages, summarize a document and write a few lines of code here and there. It was the broadness and the generality."
"But people would look at it and say, in any particular area, that doesn't seem so smart. And so many people just shrugged and they just dismissed it."
"I just look at it and I say it's the same thing over and over again. The limitations of the models, six months from now, the things that seemed hard, they're going to be easy. 12 months from now, the things that seemed impossible, the models are going to be doing them regularly."
"It's everything we saw with GPT-2; we're seeing it over and over again in wider and wider swaths of the world. And the world is gradually finally being convinced."
Daniela Amodei: "I remember at the time there were some very well-respected computer scientists and AI and ML leaders who basically bullied some of the researchers who worked on [GPT-2] on Twitter and were like, this is stupid. We don't know why you guys are even talking, this model is so incapable."
"It was like you were sort of a quack if you believed this was a really significant moment."
Dario: "That's all been memory-holed. All the researchers who were like, oh, this is pseudoscience, it doesn't make sense, all of them are applying for jobs at the LLM companies."
"We never say it out loud to any particular one, but we look at them and they're like, we remember what you were saying in 2019. You have no credibility on this matter."

No fucking shit sherlock
A new survey of 1,000 American adults found that the strongest supporters of transgender sports bans are not the people who admire women most: they are the people who hold the most hostile views about women.

Do people seriously believe this is what happened just because the parents kept repeating it? Seriously?
Jesus Christ we need a revolution in epistemics or we’re doomed as a species
Police called on 3 year old Black boy—for being "too good" at soccer.
Officers escorted his family away in front of all the other kids.
After league had them tresspassed from the field.
“They really called the police on a 3 year old because he had the ball too much," dad said.
The young athlete was already playing in a league with kids 2 years older than him.
Other parents on the opposing team are heard on video claiming the kid was "trying to put on a show."
His mom replied, "Those grown ups huddled up talking about my son... but he ain't doing nothing but playing soccer."
Incident occurred at an i9 Sports league soccer game in Winter Park, Florida.

Here’s an example of a very REAL Karen encounter. See if you can spot the difference!
🚨"SWIMMING WHILE BEING BLACK." A Black woman was swimming at her mom's apartment pool. A white woman demanded her mom's name and apartment number.
She refused. So the woman called the police.
It happened in Michigan in June. Nataasja Drake says she was visiting her mom, who lives at the complex.
"I don't owe you an explanation," Drake told her.
The woman sat down next to her: "If you don't live here, you can't come in."
Drake kept filming: "I'm recording. I'm calm. I ain't did nothing. You walked up on me."
Drake says the officer who showed up "tried his hardest not to laugh." We haven't seen any police statement.
Does a guest owe a stranger her mom's name and apartment number, or is that the complex's job?

If you think transsexual women are in any position to weaponise “white woman tears” you might just be a fucking idiot I’m sorry.
Absolutely zero understanding of the position trans people occupy in society. Pure racial grievance above all else.
***White*** women weaponizing her incompetence and tears for (historically) for saying something w/o thinking. (Again.)
Super boss. Insane difficulty.
