Multiple middlemen are better than just one. Also, you can test its effectiveness.

He’s off the leash. Neither Congress nor the Supreme Court will stop him.

That’s not socialism. It’s state capitalism. Socialism would mean the workers owned (and controlled, not just nominally owned) the means of production.

They can use their AI to check if I’m using AI in my job application.

Well, there’s also 0.1% who are relatives of old people who are tring to keep in touch with the batty old meme-forwarders. I was one of those until the ones who mattered most to me shuffled off this mortal coil.

They should bring back chain shot.

Always watch what they do, not what they say.

Tesla would never exist in a capitalist system.

This is a capitalist system. You might be referring to a free-market system, but those are rare and short-lived. Almost every capitalist system has subsidies, back-handers, state-protected monopolies and oligopolies, corruption, dirigiste policies, regulatory capture, and so forth. You can claim that none of it is capitalism, but it occurs in the only capitalist systems that exist in real life, so I suggest that you’re confusing “should” and “is.”

It’ll be so nice when that gabbling imbecile leaves this world. I know he’ll just be replaced by another asshole, but at least we won’t have to hear his whiny voice anymore or his Alzheimers word salad ramblings.

Better yet, they will, and the whole abomination will crumble.

Rotten whale-skull leakage.

It’s MAGA. Why do you expect joined-up thinking from them?

He can produce badly-written bullshit without the help of AI.

Yeah, Vance got mentored good and hard. That’s why he looks so much like a roofied chipmunk.

Three senators need to defect from the R’s for it to be a tie. It’s not insanely one-sided. It’s just that they’re well-trained to goose-step in sync.

IQ scores, by definition, are forced into a Gaussian distribution, which is symmetric, so the mean is the same as the median.

Or will it be more a defenestration-fest? Or maybe it’ll alternate as Trump plays them off against each other.

I’d say it’s more a volatile coalition between Broligarch MAGA and LumpenMAGA.

And what political relevancy was that, exactly? That hectoring poverty-porn book he wrote, that was like Horatio Alger sucking off Peter Thiel?

Yeah, except there have been defections from Big Tech to Tech B, the prime example being Meta. Zuckerbot has gone and kissed the ring, and has shifted Meta to push more rightwing lies. And OpenAI has been Musk-adjacent from its start, so I’m not sure where it should go. And I’d use Xitter as the Musk example rather than Tesla, since Tesla’s primarily a carmaker, not a tech company, despite its doing clever things with batteries now and then.
