And given that American voters exist in a 2 party system, nobody should be under the illusion that they have any other choice. Don’t encourage people to delude themselves into thinking there is a better alternative. They’re right, you’re right, what’s the best option?
One side must bring peace to the middle east, the other side is allowed to tell Israel to kill Palestinians faster.
And before someone comes defending their stance not to vote for either genocidal enabler, why aren’t you trying to save as many people as possible? Are you ok with more people dying because of your ideals? Enjoy living with that choice if he wins.
I hope someone gives him the advice that he should consider refusing treatment, given the fact that he won’t live long enough to be a free man with or without the treatment. He’s lived his life, and left his legacy, now he needs to leave this world.
I don’t think I quite agree about governments being predatory by nature. I think they can be, have been in the past, and safeguards and checks and balances need to be there to prevent it. But generally a democratically elected government is beneficial, albeit flawed. Often reactive rather than proactive, but not commonly bloodthirsty. I mean, they often can’t even jail executives for criminal decisions or negligence.
In Elon’s case, I do believe governments around the world are going to have to adapt to protect their citizens from popular, but provably false and dangerous propaganda, as well as protect their privacy in the EU’s case.
Also, I agree, we both aren’t lawmakers. So for now I will just have to cheer any attempt at adaptation, and hope that their solution is functional and passes scrutiny.
Gotta ask, what would you propose that would curb Elon from willfully committing crimes as he is?
He continues to do so because he’s proven the system is broken as soon as someone is sufficiently wealthy. He fights the charges, then when that runs out he fights the amounts, and even when he does get his comeuppance to the tune of 44 billion, he’s an even bigger brat cause he finally got stood up to. Do you think that there’s a way to systematically even the playing field?
Unironically, yes. You shouldn’t be able to shield your actions under a different corporate umbrella.
“Oh, guess we can’t fine them much because Twitter is a money pit, so they’ll get to continue breaking the law for cheap”
Nah, make the fine off of his entire net worth, make him cash in some of that stock so he can finally pay taxes and fines. Make it hurt enough for him to consider not breaking the laws of countries he wants to do business in.
I just remembered MrBabyMan. Turns out he’s still an animation editor for Disney stuff, if anyone is curious. Wonder how he feels about social media in general now.
Kroger does actually have gas stations in some of their areas. But you’re right, this is a grocery store self checkout machine.
It’s amazing how the political group with an obvious Nazi problem has become more pro-judaism than the ADL. I bet it’s confusing the hell out of their voter base.
If you truly hate kids, this is what you have to do. Introduce dangers with plausible deniability.
How was I supposed to know the kids would use it to turn each other into meat crayons?
I think you hit the nail on the head. Prioritize quality on the sharp things. Works the same way with kitchen knives, not that you have to buy something expensive, but you should always keep it sharp. A sharp knife is dangerous, but a dull knife is dangerous and less predictable.
I mean, it was indeed a hot mess in many ways, but it was also a mostly functioning online community. So functional it became a great source for information and individual opinions on just about anything.
It could have been preserved and profited from with little effort, but some suits saw a bigger payday opportunity and tried to wring it dry, accidentally squeezed too hard, and drove a wedge into the community.
Even if it worked, that’s just more hypocritical nonsense.
“Biden messed up, these 13 Americans are dead. Not quite as many people as I killed by messing up a pandemic response, or by blowing the cover of American spies, but if I get in office again I’m sure my decisions will kill a lot more people. What were we talking about again?”
It’s been broken since the 3rd party apps debacle. Thanks for fucking up the site out of pure greed, you self righteous cunts. If Swartz were alive today, he’d kill himself again over what they did to reddit.
Gotta have something to plug the bullet holes.
Attempt to sue them first, and if that fails burn the place down.
Lol, nah, just point out how crazy it lines up with the election that gave us trump to begin with.
Gen 7 came out November 2016.
Nope, same shit. Treat them the same. They’re voting for their enthusiastic genocidal maniac that also wants you dead. The least you can do is vote for your only real choice, your apologetic genocidal maniac that doesnt want you dead. Wish it werent this way in our political system, but it is.
Do you want to continue this pointless conversation?
I’m not trying to bully people into voting, just making sure that this dangerously short sighted bullshit doesn’t go unchallenged. Thank you for proving my point.
