| The datacenter opposition is definitely partisan, even if you can find some overlap in supporters https://www.economist.com/content-assets/images/20260905_USC... |

| ▲ | gruez a day ago | parent [-] | | Are we just going to ignore the 30+% difference between democrats and republicans? | | |
| ▲ | esseph 20 hours ago | parent [-] | | The ~32 pts between Independents and Republicans is pretty telling. The Republicans and GOP are far off the mark from Dems and Independents, aka they are drifiting further from the center. | | |
| ▲ | gruez 14 hours ago | parent [-] | | ...or that many "independents" are just left wingers that want to avoid the democratic brand. See also: the fact that all "independent" senators caucus with the democrats |

| Purely anecdotal from my point of view. The folks I see being very anti-AI are also the more left-wing folks in my bubble, who I know have gone down some of the purity spirals we've had before. I don't know many right-wing folks. Most of the ones I do know are dealing with different issues and don't really give a toss about AI one way or the other. |
