“Mistake”

Poster below gave you all the answer you’d ever need on this question you beg… If you have any integrity, add a note to your original comment to clarify that you were mistaken in your initial assumption and why.
But, doesn’t seem likely that you will.
- Comment on Elon's Death Machine (aka Tesla) Mows Down Deer at Full Speed , Keeps Going on "Autopilot" 2 weeks ago:
“As much as I hate elon…”
“I hate elon as much as the next guy, but…”
“Look, I’m no elon fan, but…”
I’m sure you all know, but to be clear, the above are the beginnings of sentences from people who don’t hate elon. They are sentences from people who like elon, but think you will hate them, or not consider their opinions, if they say out loud that they do, in fact, like elon.
On a separate but related note, this is elon speaking at a hate-filled rally featuring a series of bigoted speakers, including himself. The rally very intentionally cosplayed an American Nazi rally that famously occurred at Madison Square garden in the 1930s. To emphasize how on the nose this all was, elon wore a specially made hat that very deliberately used a prominent font from the Nazi era.
elon has done nothing good or admirable with his life and elon will will not do anything good or admirable with his life. You can’t compartmentalize your opinion on this, he sucks, on the whole.
- Comment on Elon Musk Fans Are Losing So Much Money to Crypto Scams 2 weeks ago:
The registered republican voter records are available for purchase - that list is such a gold mine of warm, qualified leads of the dumbest people. Cross reference above a certain threshold for affluent zip codes and split by age and you’re now holding the keys to hate-filled grandma’s pension.
- Comment on AI are like shitty palm readers/fortune tellers 2 weeks ago:
Cool. You’re different, you’re not like the other girls…
You seem to have main character syndrome though. You think your edge case (or the claimed example of your friend as a professional foolishly trusting their future to the hallucinating robot) is the thing that drives this AI moment, but no. The VAST majority of marketed use cases and associated revenue gained from the BROAD population is for much more trivial applications.
You also need a little more ability to process an abstract thought here, the “customer” of the palm reader here is not me or any individual. It’s humanity collectively. We tell it about what “the catcher in the rye” is and it steals and internalizes that human work. It then, very often, incorrectly reinterprets human thought back to us, but while mentioning enough minor details, which we provided prior, for it to better convince us of its confident lies.

Ikea, standing shoehorn. Goofy thing is styled like a snake, but gets the job done.
- Comment on AI-powered weapons scanners used in NYC subway found zero guns in one month test 3 weeks ago:
“Now you see, my boss allows the knives because he’s not a woke. The reason your office doesn’t want you to have the knives is because the knives give off natural ALPHA digital testosterone signals, especially colloidal silver knives made from gold. These ALPHA signals interrupt the 5G signal in the office chairs at your work. The chairs use the 5G to send wireless vaccines directly into your genitals and that can make you all trans DEI CRTS! This is why my boss, who’s also the local county republican chapter president, has to hand inspect all of our genitals (and out children’s) when we enter or leave the office each day. To make sure that rogue signals didn’t get us. Careful out there snowflake.”

Hard to connect these dots for most “normal” folks without feeling like a conspiracy nut. Appreciate this journalism.

Oh sure, no other recent influencing factors as well huh?
- Comment on Kroger’s plans to roll out facial recognition at its grocery stores is attracting criticism from lawmakers, who warn it could lead to surge pricing and put customers’ personal data at risk 3 weeks ago:
We all need to wear little bowties that spritz semi clear paint into the cameras as we browse price tags.
Or can someone start a tick tok trend where the kids go to stores and eat these little devices off the shelves as a real “just prank bro”?
Also, remember that corporate rats do these things to give each other cover. Kroger has to be the face of bad guy this time, but don’t you think for a second that Safeway and even the new “leadership” at Costco aren’t prepping the same right now.

- Comment on X's controversial changes to blocking and AI training saw half a million users leave for rival Bluesky in just a single day 3 weeks ago:
Because we are extremely simple and self obsessed animals in the whole. At the intersection of those two things, we regularly conflate base familiarity with earned trust. A bit of a narcissistic drive to tell ourselves that… if WE know about something, it MUST be good, otherwise we wouldn’t have taken the time to first learn about it!
It’s why your town is currently infested with hands-free signs in every public space. It’s also why incumbents have such large advantages in elections and why dead/convicted politicians (or Last-name sharing family members of those politicians) are often elected after the fact.

So he’s completely removed from anything to do with that company and isn’t inherently woven into the DNA as it’s very recent founder?

Just helpful to remember, as all this horseshit persists, Bluesky is Jack Dorsey. Dorsey is former head of Twitter and musk’s good buddy.
It’s all a losing proposition, whatever direction you move - except if you move… Away.
- Comment on Men Harassed A Woman In A Driverless Waymo, Trapping Her In Traffic 1 month ago:
The victim’s statement here ends with an oddly volunteered tangent and specific praise of driverless vehicles, before it finally takes an eerie turn in the last sentence…
"…With that said, I think the Human Factor in this issue is going to be a lot harder to solve than anything else.” …FREEZE CITIZEN!
I do hope she’s okay, and those two folks seem to be clowns, but this thing also all reads as likely guerilla marketing for Waymo - who the article informs me, in a very capitalism-friendly turn of events, that they now have their service open to the public in 3 cities, cars have a safety feature that checked in with her multiple times and they “rewarded” her with an extra ride. It’s a light enough “crime”, with a very engineered feeling and enough to feel “real” while providing ready fodder for morning radio talk shows, Jimmy Fallon and good morning America talking heads to drone on about this morning across America as time filler that quietly advertises waymo “saving” a person from the scary outside world.
Note: Also, was very funny that throughout drafting my comment here “waymo” was constantly being autocorrected to “say no” :)

This was the perfect explanation. Thank you.
OP, says something to me that’s very clear about your sense of humor that you didn’t see any of this. There is an entire layer of humanity that you’re missing in your day to day life. That makes me sad.

Its subtle, but the tone of that article’s coverage actually sucks… Is futurism a piece of shit?
What a waste of my tax dollars by the DOJ to try to recover spotify´s money for a broken system that they left open and are honestly probably exploiting themselves in parallel to inflate engagement numbers and take streams away from legit artists that they have to play. Remember, they want you in their app, they don’t give a shit about actual music. If you’ll just listen to random boops, they save cost in the middle. Not where I want the justice systems effort to go.

So funny that all the musk brigaders on here, in full force, can only collectively muster 4 downvotes…
