Positive Good = As slavery continues to expand, slavery supporters stop apologizing for it as a necessary evil and start defending it as a good in and of itself; this is around the time of John Calhoun and feeds into the Civil War. Scientific racism begins to really develop to defend slavery. Southerners begin to not only defend the peculiar institution but actually promote it as a superior and more humane form of social organization. This accompanies waves of expansion; I'm not an anti-Texas faggot like most academics today are, but this does overlap with the story of Texas, the Mexican-American War and the filibuster expeditions against Mexico, Nicaragua and Cuba. At this point the South also begins to become a pariah internationally, it sort of isolates itself intellectually in a manner somewhat like South Africa and Rhodesia under apartheid.
Note that this is the position modern liberals take on American companies' exploitation of Chinese slave labor overseas and American farmers' exploitation of illegal alien slave labor domestically.

Does this include Deepfake NON PORN? Like making deepfake videos of a president saying that they should bomb detroit or something?

If so, I am okay with the idea behind it, but I don't trust the government to abuse this power.

As AI gets better and better, anything that is on the internet is now subject to a "I never did that, someone used AI to deepfake me". Imagine all those memes of Biden or Hillary having a stroke during a talk or falling down stairs or some shit - they are all now going to be "Fake news! AI deepfakes posted by bad actors".

If there is any lesson in how everything played it out is that quite a few people don't care that much about slavery as long as they can't see it, it isn't happening in their backyard or that its convenient.
 
Change does take time, and it would be easier if people like you did not insist on simply giving up and letting gigantic chemical companies get away with whatever they want.
the recent change isn't just letting companies dump harmful chemicals wherever they want. PFAS compounds are already regulated by the EPA and they already have a safe exposure limit. this recent change merely lowers the limits to what they were before the Biden administration changed them. i don't see why i should be a doomer about this change when there are already dozens of other cleanup sites in my area for other hazardous chemicals

The amount of eco sperging is mental in here rn and tells me who was a convert to the republican party. Nigga I want to get to Mars. Acid rain is fake and gay. These chemicals are too.
there are compromises to having an advanced society that produces things and accomplishes things. sometimes we screw up. we have ways of fixing things. eco sperging is always by very anxious people who can't handle change or risks at all and want everything to stay exactly the same forever. which is impossible, unless you do nothing and stagnate
 
The modern pro-abortion crowd will probably get a lot further in their pursuit for power then the enslavers of old did, though they have suffered setbacks in the past couple years.
Rate me optimistic, but I personally think we've seen peak baby murder in America as an ideology. Being pro-abortion, is being pro-death, and one need only look at modern liberals to see how miserable they are. Slavery on the other hand doesn't require one to adopt such vile views. Its much easier to lie to yourself that you are doing good when you keep people in chains. Everyone who is pro-abortion however knows exactly what they are doing, and only the most broken of them aren't that seriously effected.

This effect is reflected in birth rates. Pro-life people have always had more children than pro-aborts. It has only been a combination of law, and propaganda that has enabled this terrible minority to have a hold on society. I ask seriously can we expect these people to retain their same status now that they've lost the legal battle, are losing the indoctrination battle, and have always lost the reproductive battle. Abortion is at its most basic is a self-correcting issue. The genes that enable a woman to murder her own child remove themselves from the species. Even if every genetic dead-end woman is a drop in the ocean of humanity.

Oh. So literally getting rid of Biden's mandates to have NONE, even if they have industrial uses because we have nothing better. Good.

That nigger is an utter retard. I checked out his podcast series and it was just several episodes of him LARPing as some kind of Assata Shakur-level nigger revolutionary and whining about how he wants to destroy the Supreme Court because they don't tongue his taint hard enough for his liking.

What a stupid faggot.
