In the Global Attitudes Survey this spring, Pew asked 18,850 adults in 17 advanced economies, including the United States, about their views of American society and politics. Countries surveyed included Britain, Canada, Australia, France, Germany and South Korea.
“Very few in any public surveyed think American democracy is a good example for other countries to follow,” Pew’s report said. Outside the United States, a median of 17 percent said U.S. democracy set a good example for other countries to follow, while 57 percent said U.S. democracy “used to be a good example, but has not been in recent years.” An additional 23 percent said the United States has never been a good example for democracy.
There is a difference between urgent and important. With this number of issues, that’s a CRITICAL difference. Though I think it’s good to do multiple things with one action if you can. One thing we CAN all (and mostly won’t) do is NOT BUY AI SPIES to put in our homes and vehicles. Another one is NOT BUY a new IC engine vehicle. Just don’t do it.

Its difficult to be woke on a planet that is being destroyed by the unwoken.

Not so afraid of artificial intelligence – it will be greatly hampered by the intelligence of the humans that build it…

The 4th box is the most destructive, because of it we can not work on the other.

We have 4% of the worlds population and over 700,000 dead of that 5,000,000. We’re No. 1.
