  • the fulfillment of biblical prophecy that “God would anoint Christian ‘kings’ to preside over an ‘end-time transfer of wealth’ from the wicked to the righteous.”

    A) I thought the Bible taught against hoarding wealth.

    B) Aren’t they all supposed to be Raptured into Heaven anyway, leaving us sinners alone here on Earth, where we’ll end up with their stuff anyway 'cause their stuff isn’t going to Heaven with them? So what do they need it for?








  • “dynamically integrates positive content from Reddit users directly below an advertiser’s creative, putting community conversations front-and-center in the user experience and blending AI-driven efficiency with real human perspectives”.

    the company is also introducing a “scalable, AI-powered social listening tool. […] Informed by proprietary metadata, it provides precise, real-time insights that help marketers confidently plan campaigns, validate creative ideas, and make smarter business decisions"

    I wonder how much they had to pay a business major to come up with those sentences, or did they just use ChatGPT …




  • For the people who didn’t read the article, or found it confusing, here’s some context, put into a timeline from the slightly confusing article:

    Arturo Gamboa was marching with the crowd in Salt Lake City, when he separated from the march, moved behind a wall and returned with a rifle. Two of the march’s peacekeepers saw this and confronted him with their handguns drawn. At this point, Gamboa raised his rifle into a firing position and ran toward the crowd. One of the march’s peacekeepers fired three rounds. He hit Gamboa, and also hit innocent bystander Arthur Folasa Ah Loo. Ah Loo has died.

    Not from the article: there’s a video circulating of a bunch of people sitting in an entryway. One of the people there picks up a backpack belonging to someone else and moves away, saying “He’s got a rifle in here”. They call over the police, who force the guy down and arrest him.

    The video is from when the crowd is sheltering after the shots were fired. Gamboa, who was injured, tried to hide inside the crowd. One of the people there noticed the shape of the hidden rifle, and the blood on his hand, took the backpack away and they called the cops over.

    Edit: I went to the SLC sub on The Other Place:

    Video of the first shots being fired (no gore) Note that it looks like the news article may have the confrontation / running away / firing sequence out of order. I’m gonna turn off notifications and you guys can debate this among yourselves.

    Video of the guy finding the gun and calling the cops over

    Video of people helping others over a wall to escape the area. Among the people helping others up: Batman!
