I think you should reread what I said, I don’t think your response makes sense vs my statement.

Sounds like that fight was lost 100 years ago.

Eh, NY has the Yankees sports team but they are not part of New England and I’d say a good portion of the country would say NY has no Yankees in it besides the team.

Given that you’re the native, you should gently explain to the colonial that they are the ones who are wrong.

Yep

Welcome to the future

The article literally says “110” which is indeed above average. Furthermore, I don’t think anyone is underestimating Elon at this point: he built a cult of personality over twenty years that last to this day (smaller than it was a decade ago, but still there) and he bought the presidency.

He can do all those things and not be generally smart. His skill, like trump’s, is lying in a distracting way. Neither of them is likely to ever invent a new thing or necessarily even be good at anything else. But they don’t need to, society values distracting liars above most everything else.

The last sentence

You clearly have the context since you said you’re not American. But to spell it out the context is america electing these people. There’s news articles if you really care, none of us need to spend our time hand feeding you a summary.

What the fuck are you talking about?

The majority of news orgs have had to merge editor jobs and no longer have dedicated copy editors.

People who write for a living are no better, possibly worse, than the average person at the rules of writing.

Can you point out specific problematic AI-like segments?

He also told the daughter it wasn’t named after her for most of her life.

I may be misremembering but I think she wasn’t a child anymore by the time he acknowledged that he was her dad.

Empty land does, in fact, vote…under the racist system that our founding slaveholders pushed for.

If your state isn’t green, call your state representative (bonus: the one more likely to give a shit)

Trump is famously sober.

I actually let my friends chew my face off and I do theirs.

ITT whaaaaat the fuck take on drugs, sponsored by Nancy reagan

You are getting into UPenn if your daddy owns an emerald mine and has pseudoslaves to work in it.

And yes there are a lot a looooottttt of dumb people at google, amazon, Microsoft, and apple.

Because you support nazis?

No, very clearly not.

I’m commenting on the effectiveness of a course of action.

Are we not in the same thread?

What’s your retirement age now?

But genuinely, I’ll accept that as generally true. One issue we have that you don’t is you can get to the actual capital of power in like 5 hours from anywhere in the country. A very large swath of the more liberal population of this country lives 50 expensive driving hours or a very expensive flight away and there are very few labor protections. Most businesses are run by people who are on the side of the government, meaning you are asking folks to lose their job, fly or drive ~5000km, all to stand outside a place with armed riot police with signs. That doesn’t sound appealing, nor does it sound effective based on the violent and blatantly illegal actions undertaken by the us government in DC and Portland during the previous trump administration.

So then the question becomes: is it time for an actual armed protest. Is that the right step?

Since you asked the part that stood out was very small

I guess I could have easily said that in the first comment.

Feels a little: ugh sure I guessss I could have explained more, so tedious

Clearly this was a misinterpretation.
