  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

There isn’t a reliable figure showing exactly how many people use AI to post on forums (i.e., how many authors of forum posts are AI-generated). However, there are some relevant data points and trends that give insight:


✅ What we do know​

  • According to a study of Reddit posts in 2024–25, about 15% of posts on Reddit were estimated to be “likely AI-generated”. Originality
  • More broadly, studies show that many online communities are creating policies around AI-generated content, indicating it’s a growing phenomenon. Cornell Tech
  • On AI usage in general: globally around 900 million people are estimated to be actively using AI tools as of 2025. Resourcera
  • In terms of “AI writing tools” adoption: one source says that among bloggers/content creators 80% use some kind of AI for tasks.
Is that AI?

What does this have to do with Mandami?
you mentioned America is turning into a communist country. I believe racial profiling reflects communist behavior more than the government-funded grocery store Mamdani proposes.

Where is racial profiling found in communism?

So the entirety of Mamdani's political views is a government-funded grocery store, and nothing else?

So you think America should become a communist nation because it doesn't evolve racial profiling? Or how about communism doesn't evolve knitting? Let's talk about knitting instead. What are your thoughts about knitting? Are you for or against knitting?
You like knitting? So does my wife! But she sure does not approve racial profiling!

Listen, brother, I may have let my eagerness to make a point overshadow having a constructive debate in a respectful manner. I apologize for that. Have a blessed evening.

If what you think you presented was actual evidence of something then you might have a point. But it wasn't, so you don't.

If you say so.

In any event, multiple outlets have reported about the Mamdani effect. How big that effect will be remains to be seen. But it's straight up denial to pretend like there hasn't been ANY indication that people are concerned with what Mamdani's election means for their continued residency in NYC.

Will it be like the buffoons who claim they'll leave the US if/when Trump wins the election? Probably to some degree. People say a lot of things. It's easy to claim you'll flee the country if you don't like the election results. It's another thing entirely to actually pack up and move. But with NYC, it's not nearly as involved. Some people could move just a few miles and still live near the city they love but be outside the city limits.

I tend to agree with the article that I posted earlier that said Mamdani made a bunch of promises he can't keep. As such, since many of his more radical policies will never see the light of day, the impact of people leaving the city will be smaller. But only time will tell.

A whole lot of promises - here is the rub. The do not have to move out of state - they can move 45 min away to another city.

You used AI to answer. I guess in some cases it is permissible
'Some people argue that satire is in decline, or at least evolving in ways that make it harder to recognize. The rise of social media, hyper-partisanship, and an overall sense of information overload has made the line between satire and reality blurrier than ever. It’s harder to distinguish parody from actual news when so many figures in power and public life already behave in such absurd ways.'

We can do irony as well if you like. As in - it's now ironic that I am using AI to explain how the comment I posted earlier about people using AI to post was obtained via AI to make the comment satirical.

Yeah. Bogey man wins mayoral election. He's what? A social democrat AND a Muslim? Run for the hills! That's the effect he has on some people who think that social democracy is akin to communism and all Muslims are terrorists at worst or at least want to bring in Sharia law.

At least you and I know that people like that are idiots.
