And if anyone calls them out on it, they’re immediately branded as “pedophile sympathizers” if not actual pedophiles themselves. So, not only do they get to be violent monsters, saying that they shouldn’t commit horrible violence without any sort of legal oversight (or at all, really) makes YOU the bad guy!

Not just useless but actively unwelcome.

If the primary benefit was reduced electricity usage, then that’s not a function of crypto mining, that’s just less heating. You would get the exact same results with an electric heater maintaining the same temperatures. You have demonstrated that turning the heat down by a few degrees can save a noticeable amount of money.

You got some crypto out of it, about $13.50 worth, at the cost of whatever wear and tear and reduction in life your computer systems may have suffered, but in the end all you did was just put in a whole lot of effort to turn down the thermostat.

You just listed things that you can pick up at any number of local stores. That stupid convenience of ordering crap instead of just adding it to the shopping list is why people think going a week without using Amazon will “disrupt the system.” This is exactly the problem.

Do you guys really rely on Amazon so much that one week without feels like a protest? Seriously?

If I wanted to interact with AI content I would be on Reddit.

Yeah because they were showing such restraint before.

Boycotts are absolutely legal, you are completely entitled to decide who you don’t want to do business with. However, illegality is no longer required for the justice system to be weaponized against you, and President Musk just wants to make an example to others who might not want to do business with an actual Nazi.

So you would suggest that Trump initiated the ban just so he could block it at the last minute, in an effort to make himself look good? If the Donvict hadn’t gotten himself thrown out of office and had been able to see if through, there is no reality in which he then overturns his own ban at the last moment. He purely and only overturned it here because it was not seen as something He did, but something Biden did.

The premise that Trump pulled a bait and switch, deliberately initiating the ban specifically so he could “look good” by overturning it is absolutely idiotic. He overturned it because Biden finished it, and “Undo Biden” is one of his overriding directives.

At one point Trump literally suggested reducing reported Covid cases by just not testing. They genuinely think the important thing is not to talk about it.

No, and that’s an incredibly stupid premise. Trump wasn’t the one to push the Ban. He wasn’t the one to keep it going to completion, and he sure didn’t PLAN on not having a second consecutive term. He’s just following his most basic programming of If Biden did(Thing); Undo(Thing)

Believe it or not, a lot of us are actually capable of being angry about more than one thing at a time.

I also don’t like that I’m not doing the things I should be doing. Yes, I absolutely do see that those things need to be done, no I don’t think someone else is going to do them. Yes, I wish I would just get up and get it done too.

It’ll still NEED a power cable, it just won’t COME with one.

And the fact that Google didn’t pay them more money than exists in the world will be why Russia blocks Google’s operations in the country and seizes every bit of property they can get their hands on that they say was even vaguely related to Google’s operations. They didn’t even bother with a realistic number, because in the end they don’t really care who does or doesn’t believe them.

The existence of other candidates is not the same thing as any of them having the slimmest chance in hell of winning, and the way our cursed voting system works, they’re going to end up drawing votes away from the “major” candidate that most closely aligns with them. As a result, the “major” candidate they most oppose has one less vote they need to overcome. That means that until and unless a 3rd party candidate manages to completely overshadow one of the major political parties, which is effectively never going to happen, a 3rd party vote is just one more vote your most opposed candidate doesn’t need to beat.

And no, 3rd parties are not going to overshadow the major parties. It’s just not going to happen. Look at the absolute dogshit circus that is Trump, look at how many lifelong Republicans have vowed to never vote for him, how he’s absolutely obliterated any little shred of legitimacy the GOP had as a governing party. Now recognize that with that utterly weakened, vulnerable position, that best chance ever, no 3rd party has managed to even come close to unseating them as one of the inevitable 2 contenders. If it hasn’t happened now, it won’t happen ever, not with FPTP voting.

No, Salvation Army can get fucked. You couldn’t pay me to shop there.

Elon Musk’s greatest personal achievement has been his tireless work and incredible effort toward disproving the myth of Billionaire Exceptionalism.

“Free Speech Absolutist.”
