I was thinking about my Reddit account. How it’s really old and has tens of thousands of mean, cranky ass bad takes, half of which are probably not true or I wrote when I was high, depressed, or stressed about events beyond my control.
Those are all getting scraped by Google right now to be rolled up into the permenant knowledge base of their next massive AI model. You’re welcome!

I too contributed to the reddit edgelord model, probably some of my life’s greatest work

Yeah. I didn’t pull down my comments when I left, but the oldest ones from 2010-2012 are real fucking wrong-headed. That’s while I was still in college and hadn’t learned yet that the real messaging about how the world works was
- staring me right in the face
- not discussed as being about what its about by mainstream media outlets
That was the era frat rap was not just allowed to exist, but with some regularity got mainstream popularity. The great irony is two big names from that space, Asher Roth and Mac Miller went on to do some really thoughtful and insightful work, and I think their journey of awakening to the harm their privilege did is what a lot of us went through. Like. I don’t think the majority of us were thinking enough about the importance of countercultural music movements. Now google and reddit get to be the kings of that toxic outdated way of thinking.
The bad news is… That toxic outdated way of thinking benefits them. And now they’ll have a big data model that can post real seeming messages and amplify those shitty takes a lot of us grew out of

Oh, I’m okay, thank you. The op comment is intentionally hyperbolic to help drive home the point.

It is the Year of our Lord two thousand twenty-four, and people are still using Elon’s dumpster fire of a pro-Nazi website. Why?
