I suppose this is the logical outcome of rabid individualism. It wasn’t their kids that were abused, but it’s their bank account getting drained at the gas station.

Text has power. People have done worse because of what they read on 4chan.

And sure, yeah, a well-adjusted person isn’t going to end up thinking chatgpt is their wife, but it’s not like anybody has access to mental healthcare around here.

Lol, the US isn’t democratic.

Yeah this angle makes way more sense.

The idiot was calling himself the “peace president” and anyone dumb enough to buy that is probably not thrilled about another war. And anyone smart enough to see through his nonsense wasn’t going to vote for him anyway.

There are some spectacularly incompetent morons in this administration, but I think even they could figure out that starting a war with Iran wasn’t going to win people over.

So it seemed safer, but went down hill, like as in less engaging, more boring, that sort of thing?

At this point, why would they even care about the epstein files? No one’s actually doing anything about it. If pedo’s were getting [redacted] and they were afraid for their lives, this whole “distraction” narrative might make sense, but I have not seen an instance of someone suffering real consequences for being in the files. I would love to be wrong on that bit.

Y’all need to get rid of this guy asap.

I didn’t feel like writing a long comment, but yes, good explanation! We really need to reign in these companies because their products are fundamentally unreliable.

People have a natural tendency to personify things they know are not people. I’ve seen studies involving (physical) robots, and the robot says it’s sad or something, and people feel bad for it, even though it’s literally just a piece of plastic with some wires inside that looks vaguely humanoid. I don’t think this is going to change in the foreseeable future.
