Yeah, there are literally thousands of legitimate reasons to hate Musk. Calling out former friends for their behavior… isn’t really one of them.

Instead hate him because he’s actively promoting discrimination against trans people, or because he’s eroding democracy through illegal lotteries, or because he regularly manipulates the stock market, or pushing the great replacement theory, or…

Right, but 1+1 still cannot equal to 3 in that video game. You could do all kinds of horrible tricks to make it seem so, but they are just that - tricks.

Paradoxes are by definition impossible, even in a modified version of physics.

The hard part is that “direct” is subjective and up to interpretation of the court.

I mean, it could be a manual photoshop job. Just because it’s not AI doesn’t mean it’s real.

But also the detector is probably wrong - it’s likely an AI image using a different model than the detector was trained to detect.

They don’t need to go that far. Just force Musk to divest. (And prosecute him for any crimes he’s committed, but that might be asking too much of the government.)

To be fair, I think the majority of stand up comedians are also painful to listen to.

But you’re right, this is an exaggerated caricature of reality, like Monty Python or the Three Stooges but far less so.

Indeed, it turns out that high quality content is high effort, and therefore has a weaker ROI. I know it’s simply game theory, I just hate this particular game.

He’s probably got a dumb name, like Bill or Willie.

Yeah, maybe said another way, no matter how much energy you control, you still can’t make 1+1 equal to 3. You could convince a high percentage of people that it’s true, and smite anyone who says otherwise. But deep down, paradoxes are beyond even God.

It’s a bird flu, not bird syphilis.

Two-party systems unfortunately always settle into this problem.

Definitely vote for Kamala now, but remember that real change begins at the local level - try to support policies and candidates who approve of ranked choice voting.
