Listen I was just being snarky and reactive. I jumped in here and started moshing around with no context.

Being anti-tankie does not make you anti-communist.

I’m a socialist but not a tankie. Criticizing tankies!= criticizing socialists

No. how could I? Armored tanks are EXCLUSIVELY implements of peace, they are NEVER used lethally or to inflict harm. The Chinese military DEFINITELY brought in armored tanks for peaceful, humanitarian reasons.

No the tanks were there as part of a humanitarian mission /s

I’m still calling it Twitter because it will piss off Elon Musk if everyone keeps calling it Twitter and I think that’s funny.

The problem with Rogan is that he doesn't have the knowledge or qualifications to push back against people spewing bullshit on his show, and so he ends up essentially making fringe, pseudo-scientific ideas seem equal to the mainstream expert consensus view.

I pay for Hulu, Max, Disney+, Prime, and get Netflix for free. Half the time, I still can't find the show or movie I want to watch. But 99.99% of the time I can find a torrent for it within 20 seconds of searching. Not only is pirating cheaper, but it's more convenient and more user friendly these days.

You could have done all of that in a small truck like the old ford ranger.

No one thinks that trucks aren’t useful. The problem is the absolutely preposterous size of these trucks.

So I hate Elon Musk and I think Tesla is way overhyped, but I do want to point out that singular anecdotes like this don't mean anything.

Human drivers run red lights and crash cars all the time. It's not a question of whether a self-driving car runs a light or gets in a crash, it's whether they do it more often than a human driver. What are the statistics for red lights run per mile driven?

It's honestly a better browser imo.
