Define #crocodileTears

An aggressor's sadness, fake or cluelessly entitled, because their aggression backfired

Example:

#Afroman's "Lemon Pound Cake" mocked a #police raid on his home (resulting in no charges)

They sued

Because "waah, my feelings"

One of the officers "cried" on the stand

Afroman won

And congratulations Afroman for reigniting your career

"I got the right to kick a can in my backyard, use my #freedomOfSpeech, turn my bad times into a good time"

Awww you guys - the Acting Director of ICE is really upset that we keep accurately refering them the American Gestapo and calling out their kidnappings. Keep up the good work everyone!!!

Trump suffered 'mental anguish' from disputed CBS News interview with Harris, lawyer says

Donald Trump's lawyer says that the president suffered “mental anguish” from CBS News' editing of an interview last fall with his Democratic election opponent Kamala Harris. That argument was made in court papers opposing Paramount Global's efforts to get Trump's $40 billion lawsuit dismissed. Trump has claimed the interview was edited to make Harris look good, a contention that CBS and its parent company Paramount reject. Nevertheless, Paramount and Trump lawyers are engaged in settlement talks, which could lead to some trouble of its own. A press advocacy group that says it is a Paramount shareholder says it will sue if there is a settlement.

“But if we have to respect #copyright and seek informed specific #consent when we grab data for training our #GenAI system, how can we possibly extract #monopoly profit!?”

Same tone as

“But if we have to respect #copyright and grant the same #SoftwareFreedom in the #copyleft works we redistribute to others, how can we possibly extract #monopoly profit!?”

Don't be fooled by the #CrocodileTears when big-tech bullies complain they need to violate the rights of others. The answer is: “You can't.”

Oh no! The outright oligarchists are fighting with the closet supremacists as the world makes it so hard for them all to pretend they are all just harmless old*fash*ioned conservatives. 😥
