We have seen from his many other comments about this, that he just wants a propaganda bot that regurgitates all of the right wing talking points. So that will definitely be easier to achieve if he does it that way.

Moving the goalposts a lot is your favourite pastime I guess.

In the US a gun is more likely to kill the owner or their family than anyone else.

People living with handgun owners face twice the risk of homicide, study says

Gun rights weren’t sold on that. That is not the original meaning of the amendment, which talked about a standing militia being armed against foreign invasion. But yeah, they have been sold on that in modern times, and it is no surprise to see that that premise is not being questioned in the slightest even in this thread. Just people regurgitating right wing gun rhetoric.

You: Well you are wrong, because if you don’t count these gun deaths, then there are almost no gun deaths.

They subscribe to the NRA falsehood about “guns don’t kill people etc.”. Such people are usually lost causes.

They are tools designed with the singular purpose of killing.

Ignoring that fact is incredibly disingenous.

That’s not true, they disarmed their undesirables.

However private gun ownership would have done next to nothing in those scenarios anyway.

It is much more nefarious than that. It is disingenous and misleading, on purpose. These AI techbros are going to use whatever means it takes in order to spread their minddeleting slop.

They couldn’t even enforce Trump’s tariffs.

Now when a Putin simp is leading the country?

The US is a lost cause, simping for Putin for the foreseeable future.

Canada is seeing benefits from it as well. So far Canada has seen a 13% increase in tourism in 2025 compared to 2024.

They have always engaged in that sort of petty bullying of their neighbours. It is in reality Russia being in a state of constant “cold” warfare against them, but they know that their neighbours won’t respond. A couple of days ago a Russian warship wouldn’t move out of the way of a Danish ferry inside Danish territorial waters (even though ferry lanes are clearly marked as such), causing the ferry to last minute swerve.

Russia consider this psychological warfare, creating chaos and confusion. The country is a tumor on mankind, spreading its own shittiness everywhere it can.

There are definitely varying degrees as to how far that phenomenon has taken hold, and it has done so to a much larger degree in the US than in a lot of other countries. There is not really any point in trying to relativise this, it is not “business as usual”, this is radicalisation on a 1930s Germany level.

Even if you love porn and grew up exposed to it as a kid, you gotta admit that there are psychological effects on avid adult viewers and more on minors.

No you don’t. That is right wing propaganda completely unfounded by science. That porn addiction nonsense so many Americans babble about is a product of that propaganda, and doesn’t actually exist.

Also educated people tend to vocally disagree with fascists, so obviously fascists wants fewer of them around.
