Meanwhile, his and his family’s net worth has skyrocketed.


“No” would have been a shorter response.


I’ve been told my many fediverse users that no actually the USSR was the truly free one, and also currently Russia, and the CPC, and so on. This meme can’t possibly be true.


Can you give me an example of a currently-running democratic candidate for national office that is saying what you’re claiming they’re saying?


That’s not what this meme is about.
This meme says “if you vote for them, they will not do what you want. Probably best to sit this election out.” It is an attempt to convince people not to vote. How do you not understand this?


Man, like they could have kept a big part of the government shut down to avoid funding more DHS stuff and negotiate to reopen without that funding. That would have been what you wanted.
THEY DID THAT. So how far do you want to move the goalposts this time?


I genuinely think these people fall into three categories:


It’s ridiculous that you think this image isn’t weaponized voter suppression


Can’t wait to stay home for an election and let people win who are actively destroying the institutions that keep people alive. I am so smart! Take that, people that I mostly agree with!

Obviously yes, one image is too many. But companies only care about money, and if their money is going to evaporate because of their stupid technology, they’ll figure out a way to shut it off before it costs them.
The alternative is the status quo, which is that there are no consequences so there are no changes. Or maybe you make the fine ten quadrillion dollars for the first image generated, which is never gonna fly.


Let’s say a user generates one image per minute. If they do that for an hour, that’s $30M. If they did that once a day for a month, that’s almost a billion dollars.
These services have hundreds of millions of users. Collectively, if they don’t stop, the fines will be total-world-GDP levels in days or weeks.


These things are nonconsensual sexual image machine guns, dude.


Less expensive: yep
Actually fun colors: yep
Windows is worse than ever: yep
It would have been surprising if this thing wasn’t a hit.


Either I agree with and endorse your exact definition of socialism or I’m a fascist? Cool. That’s a really mature and reasonable way to look at the world.


Reality is so inconvenient for .ml’s and hexbears.


Please leave the internet and come back after you grow up.
I think there’s a place for science entertainment, but it’s not always easy to differentiate from real science. Especially for non-scientists.
