AI and robotics will continue detecting cancer sooner than humans and performing life saving surgery. Geoengineers will solve climate concerns. Technology will continue to streamline judicial systems, health care, education, leisure…

Meanwhile you’ll contribute nothing except whining that some casualties existed in the wake of all this. Do you not realize how much death and extinction existed before industrialization? Grow the fuck up.

That’s cute to you? 🤮

Surgeons kill dozens of people, hundreds if they work hard enough in their lives. I don’t kill people, therefore they’re evil while I’m not, thus fantasizing about torturing them is okay. This is effectively your logic.

You either have the mental maturity of a 12 year old, or need to take your meds.

These people are at risk of what? Climate disaster in 75 years? Tech, namely geoengineering, is literally the only feasible solution for that.

The Epstein list is simultaneously not released and also contains the names of all the people you don’t like. Convenient.

China has literally a fascist government. Authoritarians that seize corporate control for nationalistic interests while still deferring to original private property owners.

Cult of leadership is typical too. Which includes the satisfaction of citizens.

Makes me laugh when people here laud China. Especially when they’re commies who fell for the lie that China is communism.

ITT: people supporting torture and violence against tech entrepreneurs because of post-hoc political justifications.

These comments are operating under the hypothetical premise that it is literally a human consciousness. They’re essentially describing what they want to do to people if there were no legal consequences. It’s very revealing in many ways.

It’s like the mentality of a terrorist breeding ground here. Yikes.

And killing all billionaires is not going to cause immense pain for millions of people?

Them: “If I could, I’d torture and rape my enemies.”

Me: “That’s fucked up…”

You: “It’s only hypothetical, it’s a fictitious scenario!”

You’re still advocating for torture. Why does the hypothetical matter?

Trump meets with Putin and is nice to him: “Trump is Putin’s bitch, look at him!”

Mamdani meets with Trump and stands at his desk like an obedient puppy: “Wow, our hero really charmed him with his immense rizz! Trump’s a coward!”

Politics is so braindead. 😩

I don’t know if this is some sort of joke, but that’s not an agreement. That’s Trump not wanting a convoluted political beating around the bush, which is what Mamdani was about to do. Such a response would feed the media, but just saying yes and Trump shrugging it off sabotages the media’s obvious attempt of pitting them against each other.

There’s no way you people would think she’s racist if she wasn’t transphobic.

She was very accepting of Hermione being cast as a black girl. Seamus was just used as comedic relief in the movies, much moreso than in the books, with his magical mistakes causing explosions being primarily when he was a kid. He was loyal and high achieving character.

Meanwhile, the blonde character who uses the offense slur “mudblood” is the childhood villain for most the books. Yet she is racist for this somehow too, I imagine.

I agree.

But being attracted to someone is distinct from having a sexual relationship with them. I can be attracted to a married person, a mentally ill or incompetent person, or even a minor. It’s not necessarily wrong unless I engage with them.

My point is that there is a difference which is important. People are acting like the two are somehow the same.

People do the same with rape, acting like all rape is equally bad. When clearly having sex with your drunk wife is not as bad as abducting and violently restraining a stranger to rape them.

All rape is bad, and that includes all sex with minors. But there are certainly still distinctions to be made.

So you think the legal punishment for an adult having sex with a 5 year old should be the equivalent to them having sex with a 15 year old? There’s no difference?

Luckily, the laws in all states disagree with you.

Making up quotes now?

Being sexually attracted to 17 year old females makes someone a reprehensible creep?

Most straight men probably fit into that.

Why? It’s different both legally and clinically. Almost all states increase the severity of the crime for younger victims, usually choosing the delineating age around 12 or 13.

Anti-capitalists working on socialist reforms are right-wing, and you oppose them?

You guys are truly destined for irrelevancy. 🤣

You don’t need to teach history. Just name a single thing Musk would have to gain from giving control of his capital to a fascism government? He’s already on track to become a trillionaire without them. He has everything to lose, and I see nothing to gain.

Now, a capitalist who is not so successful, could potentially gain a lot from fascist corporatism, so it’s worth the risks of losing it.
