You two need to knock that shit off, I’m at work.

(I’m kidding, I love cats)

Huh, I’m amazed - I wasn’t exposed to any of that. I’d only seen the memes about it afterwards.

What happened with Snakes on a Plane? I’m only aware of the movie.

As always, trust but verify. I was telling people here for months that Kamala hadn’t won yet and everybody needed to get out and spread the word on Project 2025.

We saw what happened, and we see a lot of opinions here on Lemmy. Trust but verify.

Copyright law is messy. Thank you for the elaboration.

Doesn’t quite make sense.

You’re telling me that someone can get popped for mistakenly visiting the dark side of the internet and having whatever-the-fuck horrible shit put on their machine, but owning the content and hosting it on your servers results in nothing?

I respect that, I just try to provide context. It’s often misinterpreted, and I do succumb to emotional responses — but my goal is to make sure those that are justified approach their goals with a clear mind.

I’m not advocating for the rich. I just want people to make the right decisions when it inevitably comes to the point where we need to decide what to do with the rich. I don’t think we should treat GabeN with any more respect than we owe the poorest person, is all.

First step to getting away with shithead behavior is convincing a group, any group (but preferrably one marginalized), that you’re representing them.

Idk, there are tons of good things that have happened from rich people doing stuff. Hell, that’s the reason medicine progressed — if nobles weren’t terrified of dying, who knows how long it would have taken to figure out that bloodletting with leeches doesn’t work?

I don’t think I need to point out all the bad things that have happened because of the rich.

They’re here too

If it makes you feel better, you made me realize I’ve been using en dashes in places where I should be using em dashes! So, thank you.

Them: If this thing happens to me that most likely will not happen to me, I’ll do this thing.

You: No, you won’t.

You see what that shit looks like? Congratulations Cletus, you’ve spoken the obvious about a hypothetical. No I won’t be shooting the people responsible for destroying the planet, thanks for reminding me.

There it is, the techbro buzzword.

The person you’re replying to is right, you’re a cultist. You desperately desire to be able to skip to the end where you make a bunch of money off your ‘art’ utilizing tools whose largest claims to fame currently are literally copying the Ghibli style and being bad at math.

There are legitimate uses for AI, art is not one of them - and anyone that can actually appreciate art will always reject you.

This is such a bizarre rejection of reality

In fact, I think that if he were to die right now he would be immediately elevated to martyrdom - that being the catalyst for martial law.

I was about to say, this guy is glazing MBA’s way too hard for this not to be a joke.

Maybe, maybe this is actually stochastic terrorism being carried out by MAGA themselves.

Think about it, their plan is to declare martial law - right? Conservatives already hate EVs, they think that Trump is a ‘good’ billionaire while billionaires like Gates are ‘bad’ billionaires - I don’t think it would take much to make Musk out to be a ‘bad’ billionaire.

Idk if this is as clear as ‘good guys vs bad guys’ - these are freedom fighters, but it’s never been clearer that a lot of people are divided on what ‘free’ actually means. You shouldn’t assume that the people doing this are actually on your side.

To be fair, these are Apple users we’re talking about. They uhh… kind of epitomize rampant American consumerism.
