      Is there actually something behind all these comments about his appearance, or is it just typical internet name-calling that mostly falls into the same anti-LGBTQ+ bucket?

    From the way American mega-corporations are going all-in on this, it seems like a long-term choice; so I think it’s one of two things: the shareholders are demanding that they go full republican (which isn’t happening AFAIK), or they’re trying to survive because they know something you don’t.

    Disclaimer: not a US citizen/resident, but sad to see this happening tbh.

    Edit: or it’s short-term and caused by Trump pressuring everybody to do controversial stuff in order to distract the public from the Epstein files.

      Silicon Valley elites quietly became deeply entrenched in some wild god-complex groupthink over the last 5-10 years, and it aligns fairly well with fascism.

    The anti-woke campaigner brought legal action against Meta – … – after the company’s artificial intelligence chatbot falsely stated he took part in the riot at the US Capitol on 6 January, 2021, seeking $5 million in damages.

    Hold up, you can a convince a chat bot to say something bad about you and then sue that company into giving you a job?

    What the fuck is happening right now?

                If there’s only one time line, and you assert that it is the dumbest time line, it follows that it is also the smartest time line. Thereby rendering the statement null. Its not unproven, but neither does it matter.
