I am sorry to bother, but as a card-carrying Luddite, I need to know (since it just popped up yesterday)

how to get rid of "Google AI mode" which apparently (to me) has no way to delete it.
AI is...... gettinng scary. Google controls 90% is what I heard yesterday on MSNBC or C-Span? I can't keep up with the firehose of fresh hell every day.
I know some DU'er knows the answer to my silly ass question and I appreciate any info/ reccs you have
Thanks.

Domestic terrorist #1 and convicted felon mob boss

Orban visiting Mara Lago for weeks this spring. Dictator 101 training? He certainly heels to all of them. All steps is

classic for "Strongmen." Great book BTW

Paramount merger affecting CBS News

just heard on MSNBC that the new parent of CBS has to place a "monitor" on CBS news content. Nothing of DEI and no criticism of this Admin.
We are well into a fascist takeover. After Columbia's cave to get 50% of their money restored (after settlement expenses), and the ICE cash infusion with the Piece of Shit Bill, I believe more than ever, that we are under attack by domestic enemies of the Republic. At least five states are desperately gerrymandering as we type.
Rolling over is not an option. For a business, a college, for Congress, or SCOTUS for that matter. They took an oath too. That seems to be forgotten.
The bully(ies) will want more of everyone's lunch money.

I'm in mourning today after watching the big, ugly bill get passed and aware of the cruel ramifications.

So many will be negatively impacted by the sheer cruelty of cutting health care, SNAP, CHIP, etc. just so megadonors and ultra-wealthy can enjoy their tax cut (now permanent). Immigrants, veterans, Medicaid and Medicare recipients, rural health care clinics (patients and employees) will all be hurt by this.
This was a travesty and it's 900 plus pages have "with malice aforethought" undermined those who need it most. Once again, the cruelty is the point.
And Drumpf holds a rally and says: "They hate Trump. That's ok, I hate them too." Now that's presidential Mr. Divider in Chief.

Hakeem did his best, and for that I am grateful.
Take care, DU'ers. Hope you're doing better than me.

Went to a rally today. Couple incidents where a protestor attacked and another fight. Unsure about the second regarding

provocation and first guy just holding a sign . Lots of drugs and LOTS of anger going around in my community.
It's sad to watch but I have to do something by showing up. Today's theme for my sign was "fight fascism." Many fascist fighters in my family lineage going back to Civil War. Guess it's my turn. "Democracy is not a spectator sport" will always be true, and sometimes you need to fight hard, or to the best of our ability.
One last observation. The division we are experiencing is something unleashed by many dark "influencers" both domestically and internationally. I don't know how we get it back.
OK last observation from history After the civil war, the one thing that terrified the now former-slave-owners was the possibility that the freed slaves and the poor whites who had nothin' would join together. We need to come together this summer. Half of us have next to nothin'.

Does anyone wonder if C-PAC embrace of Orban as keynote speaker and his tutoring visit to Magat-Lago was not

"Dicktator in Training"?. I'm sure Vlad and others are providing plenty of guidance as well. Every day is another push and outrage toward fascism. It's by design, it is well-planned and we need lots of John Lewis's right now. At least we can all channel his spirit and do our own version, to the extent we can.
Love y'all (Trey Crowder and me).

This bill is so destructive to our country, unless you're rich. It is for the next TEN years and at 1100 pages, they

don't even know what's in it. A vote is expected tonight regardless. Slashes to Medicaid, Medicare so billionaires can suck martinis on their yachts. The cuts to social and medical programs is clear. They don't fucking care about you at all. AT ALL.
How MAGATS think this will help them is proof that they are fucking clueless.
