    Just need to point out that the actual scandal ain’t the infidelity and anything making it seem like that is PR to protect the stock market . It’s fucked up what he did and the employees deserve justice but that’s not why it’s a scandal of global proportions

        Correct! And also the US government knew about it and let it happen, illegally, because Nvidia is a lot bearing pillar of the house of cards that is the US economy

          And that’s the really interesting part of the whole thing. If Nvidia really does get cut off from Chinese market, then that’s gonna shrink their revenues significantly. And they’re basically acting as the bank for the whole AI bubble in the US doing circular financing of the companies buying their chips.

            Wild that you can either say Jensens wang popped the bubble and that it was holding the entire economy up

            i’d guess that the sentiment behind exposing him is that the house of cards is collapsing soon anyway, so you might as well enforce the law against china now. like, private money from institutional investors is drying up, that’s why everyone is having ipos, and openai barely managed to get anything in their last funding round. they’re putting all the ai companies on the market so private investors can quietly exit and pass the risk to 401ks, index funds, day traders, and whoever else is stupid enough to soak it up, and then they’ll let it run out of steam because no one is willing to fund the ai bubble any longer. the bank of nvidia is no longer as important in that environment, it only had to be kept around while they had little to no exit strategy, and that has changed recently.

    Consenting adults, we should note.

    But really, this is about smuggling and fraud at the top level of a company who is already accused of propping up a massive bubble with circular financing.

    IDK I would be happier knowing that aren’t cheating at all and ruining people’s lives.

      Whether they cheat or not is their personal issue, whether they ruin our and other workers’ lives it’s our issue

          i mean, yeah, maybe the law should not protect those who it does not bind, but as far as jensen goes there is little reason to believe he’s been banging kids or something. both known women he had an affair with are 40+, his wife is a similar age as him too, and i don’t know of any creepy comments he has made. he also isn’t glued to trump the way musk, bezos, the zuck, and the others are. which would have been one of the most reliable tells otherwise imo because the epstein files aren’t about exposing trump, they’re about trump’s leverage over other billionaires with the threat of them getting the gates treatment. he had to use export laws to threaten huang though, if he had files on him he wouldn’t need that.

          it’s a particular paraphilia to be attracted to teens, and that’s what epstein island has been about. i’m not saying the nvidia guy didn’t do a million things wrong, but he either doesn’t have that particular paraphilia, or he’s really good at compartmentalising it.

        That’s for the judiciary systems (in some countries). It doesn’t mean you are not guilty
