“End Nuclear Insanity Before Nuclear Insanity Ends Humanity”
LLAW’s NUCLEAR ISSUES & COMMENTS, Friday, (08/09/2024)
Don’t forget the IAEA weekly news is now available every Friday!
This evening you will have to choose your own ‘nuclear poison’ about reading and digesting in order to evaluate it because I am having a whole lot of trouble with Facebook deleting my posts once again. I guess it’s because they cannot distinguish between what I call Information and Education and they call SPAM, Bullying, and Safety issues that this blog, according to them, seems to serve up on occasion according to Facebook’s AI operated “Community Standards”. Yes the same bogus standards that have thrown many of you in ‘Facebook jail’ for potentially offending someone(s) with words like using the ‘poison’ as I’ve done above without their ability to know the context in which the word is used. I have heard many of those kinds of stories and the outrage that goes with them, but Facebook seems to care less about whether or not you deserved your jail term because their AI technology mistakenly put you behind bars. Well, what I am serving up every day to humanity is not going to tolerate their AI technology’s lack of human qualities like such a simple thing as understanding the languages that humans use and how they use them . . .
In my case they have deleted some of my blog posts in both July and now last night in August for absolutely opposing reasons (between some kind of a personal influence on my readers or what it actually is — a blog concerning genuine humanitarian concern with media nuclear news on both sides of any issue, and educational knowledge and warnings about the seriously growing human and other life-threatening dangers of ‘all things nuclear’ regarding both nuclear war and nuclear power plants.
Just know that they (the Facebook AI clones) are ‘dead’ wrong and that they are attempting to destroy information that is vital to the future health, welfare, safety, and lives of each and ever one of us on planet Earth, as well as a world of other innocent living creatures who have every right to exist on this planet as well. I hereby challenge Facebook to “Fix the Error of their Ways”. ~llaw
