There is, general strikes usually does the trick if the government stops listening to the people. Of course, this doesn't apply to some countries that spent decades making unions, syndicates and other movements handicapped, but for the modern countries that still pride themselves on democracy, it is possible, given enough people care to do something about it.



I was talking specifically about the USA. Unless something dramatic changes, there will not be a general strike.

Even when unemployment rises to ~15%


Yes, I'm well aware, I mentioned the US not by name but by other properties in my earlier comments... I think once a country moves into authoritarianism there isn't much left but violence to achieve anything. General strikes and unions won't matter much once the military gets deployed against civilians, and you guys are already beyond that point so. GLHF and I hope things don't get too messy and you're welcome to re-join the modern world once you've cleaned the house.


I mean, what you say is not really wrong, but it's also not really relevant to the post (or thread) you're replying to.

It doesn't matter what government is in control: LLMs cannot be made safe from the problems that plague them. They are fundamental to their basic makeup.
