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.
That’s not furniture…
I wonder what the fuck he thinks would happen in this autocratic government he wants to live in if he said something the ruling party disagreed with? “Being fired” would be the least of his concerns.
Oh, right, per the interview he thinks an autocracy will perfectly align with all of his beliefs so he’ll be “protected”.
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.
To be fair. His farming ventures have moved his opinion on climate in a positive direction.
But have they? His insistence at this point is that he doesn’t have to do anything, or change anything, science will “solve the issue”. Nothing better than someone who thinks any mess they make can be cleaned up by someone else so why bother trying to make any changes that makes your life slightly less convenient?
He added: ‘I won’t drive a Tesla. I’ve got probably 10 cars, all with V8 engines. I don’t think electric cars solve anything. Science is going to be needed here, not politics. Science will solve it eventually. Always does.’

If shes so concerned about people turning on Biden, maybe she needs to head to the oval office and tell him to stop fucking funding and equiping a goddamn genocide.
Or, maybe, it’s more complicated than that. MAYBE supporting Israel in the middle-east helps keep some semblance of stability in a region that would otherwise be constantly at war, with Iran in particular doing their best to take over all of their neighbors. That’s ignoring the fact that unless you’re advocating us going to war WITH Israel - the second we pull all funding we also lose all leverage we have with them, and I would expect an almost immediate expansion into all Palestinian territory overnight given their current leadership.
Is the situation fucked? Yes. Is it going to be fixed by pulling funding? Absolutely not.
All fun and games until they throw her in a cage. I hate to break it to you, when ICE is kidnapping people, they aren’t checking your documents first. They’re just disappearing you to the back of the van. If they happen to get a few citizens too, well that’s just collateral damage.
One can hope it would result in a massive lawsuit, public outrage, and change. My bet is that it doesn’t even make headlines, Faux News slanders the woman for being an “immigrant sympathizer” and the Trump administration tries to strip her citizenship for aiding and abetting enemies of the state (you know Jesus who pays his taxes and picks fruit seasonally in Arizona).
