I know that’s the rational thing to think, but the reality is that they often don’t leave anyways. Look at Europe, they have billionaires too and they don’t leave despite being taxed higher than Us billionaires. Also a further reality is that the billionaires are not really citizens of any nation, they are highly mobile and probably spend time evenly in various countries. They already have their money well spread out.

The founding fathers basically solved this issue through the electoral college, you’re not supposed to be voting for the president, you’re supposed to be voting for the people who will elect the president. But that’s all gone to shit, proving Hamilton’s warnings about populism extremely prescient.

Post structuralists in shambles

It’s by design probably. No one really wants this except the government.

This is performative, it has a clause that allows exceptions to be made. The federal government contracts are not worth enough for OpenAI et all to shoot themselves in the foot by limiting the data they use to train their main models (while China trains on everything and then releases it open source further devaluing the American companies btw) and a custom model trained with these very nebulous principles would probably be very much useless in most general applications.

For all I know yes, multiple times maybe. I don’t ask for people’s criminal history when I meet them and not everyone I hang out with is an intimate friend even if I hang out with them in multiple occasions. But just as likely no.

I’m not defending him specifically, I repeat for the third time.

Ok you’re just kinda unhinged or something because I’m not really defending RFK, I’m just saying that you need actual evidence to accuse him or anyone of anything just for knowing or even having a friendship with Epstein. I’ve hung out with people who have been accused of crimes, does that mean I must necessarily be a conspirator with them?

Like I told the other guy I’m not defending RFK specifically, but Epstein knew pretty much everyone in the 1%. It’s a small club. You need a lot more proof than a photo or riding his jet. Like I don’t know if you know this but people with jets let other people use it all the time, including strangers. It’s pretty normal for them.

I’m just not one for throwing accusations without strong evidence only because I don’t like the person. But that’s just me.

Being pictured, associating, knowing, having partied or being in the general vicinity of Epstein doesn’t really mean anything. Wherever there was a concentration of net worths the guy was there.

That’s because most parents stop at that, saying it. If they actually did what they ask their kids to do, the kids would emulate them sooner or later.

Nah Plato was right. Not about the numbers though.

Very little chance of this being good, BioWare fucking blows. They should give this franchise to a new developer that’s competent and less focused on writing HR compliant dialogue.

I mean, you might think that but you underestimate how willing people are to give up their privacy and freedom just to feel safe.

Not if they are willingly bringing this inside their homes. I think it’s very different from substances that you might not be aware are there and are highly toxic.

I mean, people are not being forced to buy this shit. So it’s on the idiots who think they have nothing to hide. Just Google something like “why are people ok with cameras inside their house “ and you’ll see many many people basically saying “don’t care, I have nothing to hide, everyone has a pussy/dick”

They certainly call for genocide pretty often.

I understand that, but it seems habitual liars are not lying only when it fits the narrative.

There’s plenty of evidence that points to Iran building a nuke. They are not the good guys, so excuse me for being unconcerned about their literal dictatorship getting blown to hell.

So what? Just because she pushed back she’s now trustworthy? For fucks sake, screw your head on straight.

Also why are you even intent on defending Iran, an openly genocidal far right government made up of religious extremists? There’s no good guys in this fight.

Are we now choosing to believe what Tulsi says because it fits the narrative?
