What about memory? Do you occasionally have vivid memories of sight, sound or smell?

Some people can see images while they are conscious just like you see them in your dreams. Perhaps even better, depending on their ability to visualize. Maybe you just never developed the conscious ability to visualize.

There's only so much food people can grow on planet Earth, so it remains true, even if the number varies depending on the means available for producing that food. So yeah we can grow more food than people thought decades ago, but the Earth and the energy available to it, along with arable land are still finite.

Empirically, we now get more than 3x the yield per land area than 1960, and the trend is steadily rising (see graph link below).

Your argument is that it can't grow to infinity, which is probably true. But there is nothing indicting we're close to any hard boundaries.

Or they could just say Hitler committed war crimes but killed himself before he could be put on trail. Because that's what he did. It's not an opinion.

Is this an argument for sophistry or propaganda? Everyone having biases doesn't preclude people from rightly pointing out bad things in the world, like creeping authoritarianism and the undermining of democracies, anymore than it did in the lead up to WW2.

Would you say the bias was rather left if this was the 1930s?

It's amazing how much he's turned it into a cult of personality to the point that things like states rights, free markets and Federal overreach no longer matter.

I imagine, post-Trump, it will take possibly a decade for a cohesive conservative party in the U.S. to re-establish itself.

Not when you take into account how Trump has behaved in his second term and that there's an authoritarian playbook he's following that has worked in other contemporary countries like Hungary. What other president has refused to acknowledged they lost an election, and refused to acknowledge that they're not permitted a third term by the Constitution? There are former Trump officials from his first term who warned about his reelection.

What's going to doom US democracy is all the people in denial that an authoritarian coup could and is happening in America.

ok but humans are idiots, if only we could make some sort of Alternate Idiot, a non-human but every bit as generally stupid as humans are! This A.I would be able to do every stupid thing humans did with the device that performed deterministic calculations only many times faster!

Yes and when the AI did that all the stupid humans could accept its output without question. This would save the humans a lot of work and thought and personal responsibility for any mistakes! See also Israel’s Lavender for an exciting example of this in action.
