If it makes you feel better, I wish I were dead too 👍 This world would be better off without some people, some people would be better off without this world 🤷
In context, it’s a joke about how Elon removed protections against misinformation, not about wishing death on him. The joke only works if you know he’s alive.
Elon Musk wants people like me dead. They cannot be convinced otherwise and be giving them the time of day to try convince them not to kill me is, genuinely, a waste of time. They have made up their mind and believe that I am irredeemable.
His ideology itself is a declaration of the will to kill people, this isn’t a case of “his opinion”, his ideology in itself declares people like me unworthy of a happy, healthy and full life.
Wishing harm upon people like these is an act of self defense, not an act of wanton cruelty.
That’s the whole point of the paradox. Tolerance requires being intolerant to those who are intolerant. If someone won’t be tolerant of gay people, you shouldn’t be tolerant of them.
To put it more simply, tolerance is a two way street. If you aren’t tolerant of someone, then you shouldn’t be surprised when they and their loved ones are intolerant of you. If you’re going to hate gay people, don’t expect gay people and those who support gay people to like you.
Despite getting three reports I won’t take action against Ulph. They don’t seem to be a troll. I don’t believe in removing proples comments just because they are morons
The only real question is whether there will be violence. I wouldn’t want to be the rep telling this person anything they don’t wanna hear, like facts or reality.
All the Sovcit logic stuff is bullshit anyway, it just sounds like something that might be real. So build an LLM and feed it all the Sovcit shit you can find. Then ask it a question that contradicts a Sovcit position. Yes its going to be a garbage answer it returns, but it will sound like something a Sovcit would say.
Sovcit: “You can’t take my car because I issued an international statement of payment with receipt on my account!”
LLM answer: “Oh, I’m sorry. International statements of payment are only valid in registered districts of independence. You clearly haven’t executed a notice Promissory Estoppel, and its too late now so I have to take the car.”
You’re not wrong, but I’ve seen people go to great lengths to keep a car from getting repossessed even though they weren’t paying. So I meant “let them” as in “don’t fight them when they come knocking”.
Long, worthless anecdote from 25ish years ago, feel free to skip: My buddy’s grandfather owned a very small hometown car lot and financed some of the cars in house (instead of interest, it was just a flat rate “this is what it costs if you don’t pay me up front”). Every once in a great while someone would stop paying and try to hide instead of calling and working with the guy who was super reasonable. He’d let people slide for months with no extra payments if you’d just talk to him about it. So my buddy would go looking for the car and pick it up. I went with him a couple of times because he needed a second driver.
Once I went with him after we had a particularly wild weekend. He had hurt his foot in a drunken lake incident so he was limping. I had two black eyes from face planting after a separate drunken lake incident later that evening. We showed up and one of the tires on the car was flat. So he’s limping along with a tire tool and I’m helping him change the tire. We took it back without incident.
Before we got back to the lot the guy had called his grandfather asking why he sent two “mob looking sons of bitches” to take it back rather than just coming out himself. We were hungover, scrawny, injured teenagers.
The guy came by later that week and paid the damn car off and got it back. He had the money but was going to try to keep it and the car rather than paying this hometown working class guy.
A long time ago I was but a young lad living in eastern Europe and I use to watch this cartoon. The actual content of this cartoon are lost to the ravages of my memory but a few things stood out, the main character had a flying board and the opening sequence was him flying through these hallways that were broken into geometric shapes and there was a big face that he flew towards.
Sometime later especially during university it became a recurring niggling idea. Did it exist or was it some dream or fantasy? I’d get enthused once in a while and try searching the depths of the net for it with no luck.
It wasn’t until I had graduated and was working, close to 20 years after the fact that I found it ! The name of this show is now imprinted on my brain.
The same thing happened to me with a few memories:
People turning into blocks and interlocking to form a city. It turned out to be Unico: Island of Magic.
Some evil guy crawling into a painting, and something about hair growing. This was a fucked up movie called The Peanut Butter Solution. This one legit scared the shit out of me as a kid and I had nightmares about it.
