@PaperMartin Well I mean if you recognise yourself, I can't help you.
I've never met you :)
@onepict sorry I forgot the 2nd quote symbol, I wasn’t attacking you I was trying to make fun of nuancebros
@onepict At least since the era of reddit "enlightened centrists", people have taken it for granted that the most reasonable answer is always the averaging of extremes, as if the best flavor of candy was the average between poop and peppermint. I don't need to taste that. I don't need to taste both sides and acknowledge that both have their points. If someone wants that kind of thing in their diet, that's their business, but I'm not going to pretend their breath smells good or that I'm interested in kissing that kind of person.
@howtophil @MaddieM4 I mean the enlightened centre moves ever closer to the right really.
@MaddieM4 speaking of not wanting to associate with enlightened centrists who love nuance.
We published the AI policy. The Rhinoceros is dead *

@onepict Oh very nice! I enjoyed helping out on that, and I'm glad it's out.
@MaddieM4 It was really nice to have it as a group thing. I needed yours and @dentangle help.
After all we're working on this together.
@MaddieM4 I enjoy seeing you ruminate about your work, and this was part of it.
@onepict@chaos.social nuance is great, except when we're talking about human rights, in that case it's unacceptable
@onepict@chaos.social like how "live and let live" is a good thing to live by, until you're talking about human rights
making problems where there are none is exhausting and unproductive
but sometimes there are real problems
@lumi exactly. There's two areas where I'm seeing people use nuance as a way to excuse harms to people, especially with Freedom of Association and the AI boosters.
And frankly they and their arguments can get in the bin.
@onepict@chaos.social definitely. i'm not going to entertain their "nuance" when what they're doing is actively harmful to many people. they should fuck off and reflect on their views
@onepict very unnuanced take here /j
@onepict "peoples aren't taking into account the nuance in this discourse, no I'm not gonna elaborate further and I'm just gonna call everyone who isn't a fence sitter unreasonable
