I remember when they first announced this tech & had totally forgotten about it. They should pull engineers from the web DRM scheme & the manifest v3 teams to look into this.
Exactly. This is directly due to Elon’s involvement and I wish the media would make that clear. They usually show his tweet in the article, so I have no idea why they’re being coy.
I think you’re far too willing to believe that every consequence of his actions is somehow intended and desired, like he’s playing 4D chess to acquire magic Attention Coins that are somehow going to translate into wealth and power later. The truth is that Elon is an impulsive idiot easily swayed by other idiots on the right, and this negative attention is only going to make it harder for him to ever make back the money he invested in Twitter, which in turn will tank Tesla.
If they are trying to use this to be profitable and grab sponsors, I don’t see how that works. This is newsworthy, even though I agree that Twitter talk is getting old.
On the contrary, this is the type of attention they need. The more twitter and conservatives become associated with child rape, the more toxic both become and the better for us all in the long run.
If you attempt to pressure a witness to destroy evidence…is that witness tampering, evidence tampering, or some other kind of crime? Regardless, throw that one onto the mountain of unprosecuted felony crimes that he’s committed.
He’d be rolling in his grave if he saw what’s been happening to our country the past few years and how much of the stuff he talked about only got worse from the time he was doing stand-up.
Just wait until this dumification hits the job markets there will be states putting their residents at a disadvantage.
Silos if ideology are bad for everyone unfortunately we learn this over and over again in bloody worthless cycles to distract from the billionaires raping us for generations.
They don't give a fuck, they'll have gotten theirs and be out by the time that happens. The best we can hope for is that the workers operating their respirators are too illiterate to find the On button and they die a slow painful death
After watching Mitch McConnell being led around like a nursing home patient who might shit himself at any given moment, and then watching Democrats prop up Dianne Feinstein’s lifeless corpse and pretend it’s the one casting the votes, I think it’s fair to say that a lot of people don’t really give much of a damn about the Senate.
The senate is an authoritarian, classist, institution. People really should give less shits about them. Fewer shits to the point of abolishing it all together.
The Catholic Church has actively ran the longest largest worldwide Pedophile ring in human history. For the past 1800 years the Catholic Church recruited, supported, obfuscated, defended, and excused pedophilia, which continues to this day. The fact the Catholic Church still allowed to operate, in any way shape or form, with youth of any kind, in any country, anywhere, means we've all purposefully lost the thread. Beside the Catholic Church being criminal, it's only shown how very little adults care about the systematic raping of children. Like, at all.
The evidence doesn’t quite go back 1800 years, but there is 1000 year old evidence against them. It isn’t tht hard to imagine that it was probably going on before then, too.
“Sexual abuse in the Catholic Church has been reported as far back as the 11th century, when Peter Damian wrote the treatise Liber Gomorrhianus against such abuses…”
While Liber Gomorrhianus does mention clerical sexual abuse of children, it is for the most part concerned with homosexual acts among monks and priests, and also with (male) clergy engaging in unchastity with nuns or laywomen.
None of these are presented as being common or accepted; rather they are all considered as disqualifying a man from the clergy for at least a period of years.
That said —
A cleric or monk who persecutes adolescents or children, or who is caught in a kiss or other occasion of indecency, should be publicly beaten and lose his tonsure, and having been disgracefully shaved, his face is to be smeared with spittle, and he is to be bound in iron chains, worn down with six months of imprisonment, and three days every week to fast on barley bread until sundown. After this, spending his time separated in his room for another six months in the custody of a spiritual senior, he should be intent upon the work of his hands and on prayer, subject to vigils and prayers, and he should always walk under the guard of two spiritual brothers, never again soliciting sexual intercourse from youth by perverse speech or counsel.
Children are great tools for oppression. All you have to do is say “but what about the children” and any argument against you is going to look villainous.
It’s why every time there’s a social rights movement, the minority gets labelled as violent, rapist, paedophiles. See current state of the fight of trans rights.
In the early 2nd century, the Roman satirist Lucian writes a story in which a guy facing imprisonment for molesting a young boy instead finds safe haven among the Christian church. Just a small detail in a larger story, but certainly fitting with the evidence of the institution since.
And Paul, the guy who never met Jesus but co-opted his movement, had a habit of referring to himself as the Father of others, and calling others his children, and was attended by a much younger man named Timothy, and normalized kissing on the mouth as a greeting in four separate letters (behavior you’ll often see among archival footage of known pedophiles in the modern age such as Jimmy Savile).
So it may have gone all the way back to the unmarried guy attended by a young boy having people call him Daddy and kissing them on the mouth who was routinely getting thrown out of towns by angry mobs, which is even further back than 1800 years…
If you read the NT and skip the Pauline letters you end up with a group of people trying to reform Judaism not make a new religion centered around Yeshua as God.
