There’s now a small chance that the next shooting is some singularity-craving bazinga with a greeble-laden AR-15 that believes they can’t get domed by the Secret Service because they believe in “quantum immortality” and will immediately teleport to a reality where they weren’t domed by the Secret Service. yud-rational

    Pro-forced impregnation and pro-political assassination in a single week. Elon is channeling that Apartheid South Africa emerald mine energy.

    Next, he’s going to start cutting off the arms of Twitter engineers who aren’t ensuring the promotion of Nazi content fast enough.

    even if the many-worlds hypothesis was correct, there’s currently no reason to believe that your consciousness in this universe would be contiguous with your consciousness in any other ‘adjacent’ universes. quantum immortality is about as convincing as pascal’s wager lol. get better at epistemological nihilism tech-ghouls your unhinged assumptions are hilariously obvious.

      Of course it’s bullshit wishful thinking from bazingas afraid of death but wanting some of that religious escapism anyway.

      For similar reasons they feverishly pretend that cyber-heaven awaits… and more clownishly, cyber-hell courtesy of “Rok0’s Bas!lisk” which is way scarier than old fashioned hell because there will be thousands, millions, billions, or maybe infinite perfect copies of the unworthy dead there, and because dae le copy is le exactly the same as the original person because hand-wavium reasons, it’s like suffering in hell thousands, millions, billions, or maybe infinite times over! I don’t know if that means all the perfect copies have telepathy with each other or whatever bullshit is at play, but they believe it, lol. yud-rational

      big-yud “it’s impossible to experience not existing, therefore it’s impossible to experience being dead, therefore the you that is you will never die”

      grillman “it’s impossible to experience being dead, so your final moment will just be like falling into a black hole and never reaching it”

    Very serious country that will continue to give subsidies and a lot of control of national interests to a non american that is inciting violence against their sitting president.

    The one good thing I will say about twitter is that it’s absolutely rotting this mans mind. Like, he used to be passable in polite company, now he can’t tear himself away from that rectangle of hell long enough to hold a large meeting or presentation. He keeps feeding his brainworms as if to purposefully fatten them and broadcasts just how unpleasant he is all across the globe.

    Try to imagine a non-twitter brained musk and compare to this.
