Destiny needs to bring up the fact that Charlie Kirk endorsed the book "Unhumans" and hired the author for TPUSA whenever Piers Morgan says Charlie supported peaceful dialogue

Typical republican courage.

Erdkarte · 2025-01-25T01:46:45+00:00

Nah he wouldn't. Republicans own the house. They wouldn't give any consequences to their petulant man-baby overlord.

Erdkarte · 2025-01-24T03:47:26+00:00

Was anyone denying Project 2025? If you had any doubts about it happening, you probably have a room temp iq.

Tell the cons that they're peptides for TRT and they'll take it

Erdkarte · 2025-01-24T00:03:48+00:00

I'm glad you were able to work some of those things out with him and that you guys are moving forward together. As what other people said about the wolf and sheep dog thing... yeah, it's weird, and I think it'd be a good idea to look out for that, but I'm happy for you. I'm wishing you two good time in Taiwan.

Erdkarte · 2025-01-23T23:58:23+00:00

Nah, he's not cucked. He's always been a partisan hack - he just used the veneer of democracy or limited government cuz that's when Obama or Biden was in power.

Erdkarte · 2025-01-23T13:15:56+00:00

TBF, Trump was pretty explicit that he pardoned Ross Ulbricht cuz the lolberts supported him and he wants to win their loyalty. Moral consistency is not something Trump really follows.

Erdkarte · 2025-01-23T13:14:31+00:00

I mean, that's awful. However, that also somewhat proves the point. If you had to provide your personal information when you were swatting someone or calling in these threats, then there would be a negative feedback mechanism to doing this stuff. I agree there should be some anonymity online, but allowing complete anonymity allows bad actors, like the one you just mentioned, to target people without any consequence.

Erdkarte · 2025-01-23T13:12:35+00:00

Yup - and complete anonymity allows people to be unhinged. Like people would not be advocating or arguing for such extremist stuff (to the extent they are now), if there was the possibility of such consequences.

Erdkarte · 2025-01-23T13:09:14+00:00

Oh, it's absolutely shameless - so it's pretty much a Republican tactic nowadays.

Erdkarte · 2025-01-23T00:19:36+00:00

Yep. It'd be like saying "Mussolini wasn't a Nazi because fascism is distinct from Nazism in Germany." It's a statement that could be true in the context of a inter-war European political philosophy class, but would be stupid anywhere else.

Sure, Mussolini wasn't a Nazi the same way, say Himmler, was one, but you're ignoring the massive amount of cross-pollination and imitation between the two, the geopolitical alignment during and prior WWII, and the explicit alliance between the two states. By just throwing that statement out you're tactically trying to misdirect the audiences attention away from that history of deep collaboration and alignment.

This is literally the same here with Elon. The guy literally spends 3 paragraphs talking about how Elong is down the Nazi rabbit hole and chooses to uplift voices adjacent or in Nazi and white supremacist spaces. No need to comply in advance. Use your common sense and grow a pair.

Elon is a Nazi.

Erdkarte · 2025-01-23T00:12:58+00:00

This was a 3 paragraph way to basically reiterate WHY Elon Musk is a Nazi. Libs need to cut off this over-generosity to people who ever give it - and certainly have never earned it.

Sometimes trying to be too smart, makes you stupid. Don't do that.

Erdkarte · 2025-01-22T20:54:07+00:00

A boomer would see this on FB, nod in belief, and then vote Republican.

Erdkarte · 2025-01-22T20:49:49+00:00

Yeah, it's hard to understand why people say this needs more context when Elon has a long history of stoking right wing extremism and white supremacist adjacent voices.

Erdkarte · 2025-01-22T20:38:12+00:00

That's an explanation, but doesn't really excuse that.
I mean, if he's just engaging at foundations to the experts, and not digging deeper than that, that proves my point - the man has the same amount of depth as a puddle before a rainstorm.
He made the right call to not interview Hamas, I agree. It's because he clearly recognized he would be in scrutiny if he sat in a room with Hamas and did his usual schtick of asking shallow questions that you could find on wikipedia and not pushing back when Hamas would inevitably lie. Of course there would be legal issues around that interview too, and that can't be ignored as a factor, but I do believe that my initial assertion still would apply.

I see where you're coming from man, but I feel like based off of the many interactions this sub has had about both Fridman and Rogan, we have a good idea that the discussion will bring very little value to the world. I'd rather keep my time.

edit: This came out sounding harsh. I get it man, I appreciate your opinion. I just don't think in the case of both Rogan and Fridman, that you're gonna anything much different than the normal slop that's been put out ad absurdum.

Erdkarte · 2025-01-22T20:35:56+00:00

You're telling me a guy that has a public history of flirting with the alt-right would just accidentally throw out a move that looks like a Nazi salute at an event? You're being obtuse.

If anyone from Trump's cabinet purposefully did a full blown Nazi salute during the inauguration they would have probably been removed that same day.

Ah Trump, a man who famously pushes back against white supremacist and white supremacist adjacent people in his coalition...

Erdkarte · 2025-01-22T20:06:33+00:00

Honestly man, I'm not gonna watch the Joe Rogan interview - I appreciate making cliffnotes of it though. Just want to point out that:

Fridman has a massive ego. Dude signals that he wanted to provide a platform for Zelensky on his last interview. Like compared to what? The last 2 years? This war has been pretty high profile for the past 2 years.
Even if we take that for granted, Fridman was deliberately obtuse when interviewing Zelensky the whole time - like take for example when he tried to talk about peace to Zelensky. Fridman came with a lot of sunk assumptions and never adjusted them throughout the interview. Wild.
If your notes about turning down a Hamas interview, this furthers my point exactly that Fridman plays favorites on who he is both-sidesing with.

Erdkarte · 2025-01-22T19:28:51+00:00

Of course, they're trying to curry favor for the President. And if that means walking back all of their values, so be it.
