Everytime someone talks up AI, I point out that you need to be a subject matter expert in the topic to trust it because it frequently produces really, really convincing summaries that are complete and utter bullshit.
And people agree with me implicitly and tell me they’ve seen the same. But then don’t hesitate to turn to AI on subjects they aren’t experts in for “quick answers”. These are not stupid people either. I just don’t understand.
Because the conservative outrage machine stopped focusing on it. You can be 100% assured if Harris had one they’d be threatening impeachment over beef being up 11%.
Anecdotally, they were treated better in Nazi Germany than 30’s America.
Because they were US citizens. While the US has some pretty… ugly history. If you think Nazi Germany would have treated a random black citizen better than what they got in the US you are absolutely delusional. The only reason they weren’t sent to camps with the Jews was because the population was deemed too insignificant to be worth the effort.

“Hey! You can’t do that! That very clearly violates Constitutional law.”
“Oh, yeah? What are you going to do about it?”
(checks Constitution) “Oh…uhhh. I guess nothing?”
Impeachment, that’s what they’d do about it. But that would require politicians who do their job and also uphold the constitution. If the question is: what happens when everyone involved breaks the law and doesn’t do their job?
The answer is one of two things: the people vote them out.
If they are voted out but refuse to cede power peacefully, we end up with violence.
Nothing about the checks and balances are broken, what’s broken is the percentage of the population that just doesn’t care their representative isn’t actually doing their job.
Let me guess: “but just the ones Pam Bondi finds credible”.
Shockingly you won’t find a single republican on Trump ally on the list because those aren’t credible…
There’s 0 chance Johnson is going against Trump, this is all theater so when Trump’s name magically isn’t connected to Epstein they can pretend like it’s a legitimate list.
Grovel and beg for forgiveness after actively cutting NOAA budget? Personally drive a truck full of food/water/clothing for people displaced? Literally just show up and offer your condolences to your contituents (regardless of how obviously fake it’d be)?
Like, basic human things you should be doing to show that you care about the people you supposedly represent? Vs: fuck it, I’m on vacation, they’ll still be dead when I get home.
Guess what: politicians for all their grand standing about lazy entitled welfare recipients work about 130 total days a year, he can go see the parthenon some other time.
You say that as a joke… I could see Trump hopping on that train. Truth Social - worth at LEAST $200B, which the government will pay direclty to Trump as compensation for making the platform the national social media platform of America.
But she really, really wasn’t. And she wasn’t even Egyptian, she was Macedonia Greek (and it shows).
hydrogen-powered high performance.
It will literally never make it onto the streets in the US.
It wasn’t a file, it was a webpage. And it loaded infinite popups showing a dude’s gaping anus, turned the volume up to 100%, and played a loop of “Hey everyone, I’m looking at gay porno!”

Much like the US, they can simultaneously have an economy that SHOULD collapse, but also be so ingrained in global trade that nobody is actually willing to call them to the carpet.
If China were Greece, they’d probably have gone bankrupt multiple times already.
I know it’ll come across as an unpopular opinion, but some of them just need their ass kicked. Literally went to high school with a kid who was insufferable, a prick to everyone. One day he started bullying one of my buddies who proceeded to beat the shit out of him. He told his football coach he ran into a mailbox on his bike when he had to explain his face looking like it did. After that he was the nicest kid ever - he realized “being tough” wasn’t all it was cracked up to be. I guarantee a few of these kids just need to get punched in the face one time and they’ll start rethinking the “alpha male” ideology.
And the propaganda you’re trying to feed is straight from Russia with love through a “Russian filter”.
Ignoring the fact you’re a troll: one of these countries was invaded, and is taking every measure possible to secure their continued existence. One of these countries invaded a sovereign nation, and is wasting citizen lives for no reason beyond an insane, expansionist dictator’s whims.
These are not the same, no matter how many times you try to spew the false equivalency.
Can we not pretend to be as dumb as the flat-earth tumpers?
Her family came out and stated she suffered from epileptic seizures, and believed that was cause of death. There’s literally nothing worse than the family having closure, and being continually harassed about the death of a loved one because of psychotic internet conspiracy theorists. There is no basement in this pizza parlor.
If you just took a shower and your balls are still “dirty” your problem isn’t the order in which you dry yourself.
If you can take a shower like a functional adult, it turns out skin is skin and wiping water off your ballsack is fundamentally identical to wiping water off the back of your hand.
Executive orders can’t direclty contradict existing laws. They are utilized in “legal gray areas”. If it were that simple, Trump would simply pass an executive order that it’s legal for him to assassinate all members of any opposing political party and wipe every non-republican off the face of the earth, literally.
I guess it’s a good thing the question wasn’t: what was the first thing Trump went after.
The question was: why aren’t corporations pushing back. If you read what I said, instead of apparently assuming I don’t understand the order of events of Trumps idiocy, you’d see that I’m telling you that SPORTS has driven folks who would normally be neutral or supporting of transgender rights in the opposite direction. You can say that’s stupid, you can say you don’t like it, but that’s reality. And the INSISTENCE on the trans community of pushing the sports thing gave Trump and company an in to make it the central focus of the discussion.
Why on earth would ANY business get in the middle of that when, again, the majority of Americans do not support it? A topic like this leaves no room for nuance, either a company supports transgender rights and everything that goes with it (like the hotbutton sports topic) or they don’t. It is safer for their sales to not.
If you want an actual answer: the answer is because it’s still a pretty controversial topic in the US. If you leave the echo chamber here, you’ll find the vast majority of people, even those who support the trans movement, are pretty universally against trans women competing in sports. The fact the movemen tried to force it down everyone’s throat and shame anyone who disagreed moved a lot of people from neutral to negative.
When I was growing up, there was no girls wrestling, but “boys” sports in high school aren’t “boys” they’re “open”. We had girls on the wrestling team, girls on the football team. Now as they got older and the boys got bigger and stronger, something like football is a generally a non-starter.
All of that is to say: corporations aren’t going to die on this hill when there isn’t a clear majority of Americans supporting it.
It’s not insane at all. It sucks but it’s completely logical. Musk is just protecting his capital as best he can within a global capitalist system.
No, it’s absolutely insane, and short sighted. You know how much his capital will be in the event of WWIII? We won’t be spending money on overpriced EVs or sending rockets to outer space on scientific missions to study the universe. Assuming he doesn’t get himself assassinated first by people that actually care about democracy. The absolute BEST thing to protect his capital is a strong spending class in the US, which would require the economy to not collapse. You gut social services, there is exactly one logical outcome and it is social unrest followed by either class war or civil war.
“I didn’t vote at all, and am enjoying watching the slaughter of millions of innocent people from my high horse.”
Do you also get hard watching innocent immigrants being thrown in cages in the US by the Trump administration, or do you just focus on Palestine to pretend you’re somehow morally superior to all the fools who tried to keep him out of office?
