Yeah people love to fantasize that once you own a gun you no longer value your own life or have any family counting on you, and now you only exist to kill bad guys or else everything they ever thought bad about gun owners is true.
The best therapist in the world can still end your career by causing your clearance to be revoked or rendering you unqualified for your unit’s mission.
(Suicide is a big problem in the military, I lost a buddy to it.)
The cheapest therapist in the world may still not be covered by your insurance. (And nothing you write in reply will alter that.)
They should work to make AI therapy better while keeping it totally anonymous. If it were really good it would be the number one use for running a local and disconnected and air gapped LLM: perfectly private therapy with no “we just use telemetry to improve our product” bullshit.
Then maybe a lot more men would seek help/talk about their thoughts and feelings.
No he’s right: I’m armed but am just one guy and (generously) am middle aged and my guns aren’t going to do shit to change anything other than at best get me a quick death.
My party (Democrats) have fucked us all by being antigun and our current reality illustrates why.
We’ve ignored key parts of it partly because of sentiment like yours.
So now the religious racist fascists have taken over and most of the rest of us aren’t armed. It was always the bad guys who mostly didn’t oppose guns.
And, particularly damning, neither side took action to deal with the underlying problem: mental health. By that I mean that ver half of ALL gun deaths are n the USA, every year, are from suicide. No magazine capacity limit, assault weapon ban, or background check will help that.
Neither side gives a fuck, preferring to use shootings as a political tool. “They’re coming for your guns!” helped elect Trump at least the first time, and “won’t someone think of the children?” is why I will soon need to apply for a permit just to be able to purchase a firearm in my state instead of universal health care.
tl;dr: Not nearly enough Democrats are armed and thus won’t be able to stop the fascist traitor racist criminal GQP.
So keep feeling smug, the planet has a way worse because people like you got your way and now a super power is evil.
RFK jr’s wants, needs, desire to continue breathing move me not at all.
He can fuck off.
If we had a science-backing and non-Nazi government who I had any belief in their ability and will to keep our data safe, this might be really cool. When I first got an Apple Watch and saw all the ways it benefits me I honestly wished everyone had one by default.
Instead, something like this would simply be used to further control people especially women since it can track monthly cycles (to my knowledge at least.)
Good. I didn’t super-like the trailer but have quite enjoyed the first three episodes.
It’s been fun!
