Clearly I was referencing LLM's being something to foment "an activist movement" in an attempt to de-escalate the implication of there being some kind of "anti-LLM activist movement."

> ... but people who are against LLMs in whatever capacity. Surely people can be participants of a movement.

At this point your replies to my posts appear to be intentionally adversarial.

Well, no, that really wasn't clear to me at all. I don't think it was clear in general either.

Not my actual intention, apologies, although I 100% understand if at this point that is not at all believable.

Are you trying to imply that there isn't an anti-LLM activist movement? There certainly is

you can just google it
