Yeah I’d probably leave in embarrassment too lmao

lol I already have davinci, Microsoft, you can’t get me :)

This is why I dropped Harry Potter. And also, I did drop Disturbed (aside from one song, that being Decadence) cause I don’t want to support a band whose lead vocalist literally autographed bombs that were used in children in Gaza.

TBH it depends, I kinda dropped most of Disturbed’s stuff because of the lead vocalist LITERALLY FUCKING AUTOGRAPHING BOMBS THAT WERE THEN DROPPED IN GAZA. I only kept one song out of all of them and it was Decadence because Need For Speed Most Wanted 2005 was an important part of my childhood. Either way, I usually download all my music (don’t ask me how) so I’m not technically giving money to any of them.

Depends. If the person is causing harm towards large groups of people or minorities at large by me supporting them, then I drop them. It’s why I hate Harry Potter now. But, regardless, most of the media I consume that isn’t games is usually not acquired by, erm, legal means, so I’m not technically giving them any money.

So catnip is just edibles? 😂

Or better, connected straight into your pool!

Wait.

I’m stuck with Windows possibly forever or until maybe Valve manages to create a way for kernel based anti cheat to work on Linux, and also because of Clip Studio Paint.

First of all, English is not my first language, so you dunking on me for not being as literate as you sounds extremely fucking racist to me. But anyways, continuing:

Did you really grow up in America without being taught about Vietnam? Our various war crimes? The way we treated Japanese Americans during world war 2

A lot of states/counties will literally gloss over that. Also, indeed, kids sometimes won’t pay attention to school. That doesn’t mean the result should be them getting thrown into the Middle East to get obliterated by a missile because no one had the thought of talking to them about what recruiters do. They are literal groomers who will build a profile of potential recruits to emotionally manipulate them into joining, including even stalking their grades and other things to drive into their head that the military is their only escape.

I don’t excuse ignorance as a reason for committing or abetting genocide.

I don’t either, but assuming literal groomed teenagers are just inherently evil for joining is stupid, and constantly dunking without ever stopping to be serious ONCE to tell people getting harassed by recruits what they actually want means you are not helping. You don’t blame a teenager for getting groomed, you give them the tools to recognize when it’s happening and exit stage left. That’s my problem with this constant “haha dunk on the military and smoke the packs of dead soldiers”, because none of you will actually put on the work to get serious for a moment and warn teenagers to not join the military or believe the recruiter’s lies. All you want to do is to get some sense of sick satisfaction from laughing at targets you find acceptable.

“universally known” By who? You happened to stumble upon that. Lots of people are impressionable, don’t know that they’re allowed to lie, or think people like you are exaggerating for effect, especially given that most people like you don’t take the subject seriously and can only communicate through social media dunks. Like it or not, your sass does not help prevent kids from becoming cannon fodder.

You’re literally saying “I am totally immune to propaganda” without a hint of irony. Which ironically means you’re just as susceptible if it’s presented in a different way.

18 year olds are surprisingly easy to fool, let alone 18 year olds who have been getting groomed by recruiters since age 14.

You are not immune to propaganda and pretending you are does not make you an intellectual, it makes you unable to see when you fall for it.

Basically some videos were posted of the DOGE goons being interviewed under oath by a judge, and throughout the entire videos they act and look like complete fucking sociopaths swearing they didn’t do anything wrong and straight up confessing they didn’t know what they were cutting money for, just that Elon told them it had to go so they did it.

Oh HELL NO.

Yep. You’re literally only 72 hours without sleep away from having symptoms of psychosis.

“Let’s blame the person who had a psychotic episode instead of the corporations who created an AI that feeds into delusions” is what you’re saying here, and uh, that makes you even more of a fuckwit than this guy. Do you blame people for getting scammed once because they had a knowledge gap about whatever scam they got hit with?

I’ve heard about gringos saying all of this about Brazil forcing age verification, but I literally cannot find any article in any Brazilian news website talking about this. So either this entire thing is a hallucination or someone got the wrong info.

I don’t think this person was a “fuckwit”. AI is designed to keep engaging with you and will affirm any belief you have, and anything that is a little weird, but innocent otherwise will simply get amplified further and further into straight up mega delusions until the person has a psychotic episode, and this stuff happens more to NORMIES with no historic of mental illnesses than neurodivergent people.

In every other case of AI bots doing this, the bot will always affirm whatever the person says to it. So if they say something a little weird, the AI will confirm it and feed it further. This happens every time. The bots are pretty much designed to keep talking to the person, so they’re essentially sycophantic by design.
