  • Obviously it depends on the quality of the information, doesn't it

    like if it's some rando just bullshitting, that's gonna be obvious

    if he's dropping insider secrets or sounding authoritative, that requires investigation

    but we're a bit past all that right

    Like you are aware of the wider context of what often happens to whistleblowers, time and again, ... like you're not just in here shooting your mouth off right, you know something about it when you deign to ask such a glib question? Or have you done none of your homework and just wanted to bless us with the annoying noise you made?

  • It's like the conservatives always say! Too big to fail, too criminal to be brought to justice, accountability will lead to lawlessness, rules are made to be broken, party of law and order, don't tread on me...

    and the ultimate classic, whatever you do - don't be a hypocrite!

  • Sounds like a half-assed fuck up, that's still 6mo to 3y. For weed. still gonna go to jail, still get a record, still get your life ruined, still over fucking weed. The idea that jail is the appropriate punishment for drug addiction is utterly unjustifiable at this point, yet here we are, still pretending we're something other than just wrong. Sunk cost fallacy I guess. Guess they felt they couldn't just come out and do the right thing after having ruined tens(?) of thousands of lives for no reason

  • On the one hand, funny, but i mean, who even cares though, everything Elon is going to zero, because he only has terrible ideas

    the idea that you should buy a car whose features are disabled unless you pay extra for them is probably the main driver of enshittification in society. It's the enshittification of ownership. Of course capitalists love this idea, but no actual human being should.

  • Musk has been reading about all the layoffs happening at other companies who are now floundering due to the loss of institutional competence and memory, and goes "we need some of that shiat STAT!"

  • It's the same as the old devil v angel on your shoulder bit. There's a left hemisphere mode of understanding, a right hemisphere mode of understanding, and there's what happens when they're well integrated, which is mostly only achievable through meditation.

    Just for the record, the left brain is the denialist, which offers hypotheticals and which takes the behaviour of others and places it firmly outside yourself, edifying the lie you tell yourself that you are separate and different from the other largely identical monkeys. The right brain tends to communicate in gestalts and complete pictures, without negativity and possibly without reference to individuality; YMMV.

  • How could American's experience with American policing colour their response to an article about foreign policing? Are their impressions accurate?

    Why would anyone pretend that a primate in a certain situation would react in a way that is uncharacteristic of its species to that situation?

    The differences in american vs iranian policing are of degree, perhaps, but not kind, and frankly, likely not of degree either. Your bros have done some pretty bad shit and I'm sure you could find instances of police rape and murder without even going back a whole week, if you tried.
