Your whole life has been a candle in a rainstorm. Appreciate it while it lasts.

I trust that the universe can kill you any day for its own good.

Yes, if you can format them somewhat nicely that will be very useful. I don't even remember them all.

The scariest part is that he fully believes he's saving America from evil. Let that be a lesson to you in the relativity of evil.

As I said, he's not a Nazi. He's an egomaniac drunk on power. It is much too late in the game to be acting shocked at a Trump loyalist flashing fascist symbols. That was already baked into the cake. The fascism is here. It lives in the White House. Salute or not doesn't matter now.

I also don't like both-sides-ism, since it is a form of epistemic pervertry. But still, seeing various sides is important. Seeing Musk as only an evil capitalist is not a high quality view. That's not serious intelligence.

Yeah, it's a great idea. I will be making a deep catalogue of various perspectives for the future anyway.

Dude, don't you know me by now? Not in the name of balance, in the name of reality. I am pointing out gaps in your view of reality. That's all we're doing here. I don't care about thing else. It shouldn't be balanced. It should be REAL! If all you see is the black squares on the chessboard, you are blind. See the whole board. As it stands, your view cannot account for why Musk has such power and influence. You think it's because people are deluded or he is some scammer or whatever. But you don't see the reality of how power works, because you don't see how value and survival works. Because you take survival for granted. If you keep that up you will turn into a deluded Marxist. Hasan Piker -- that will be you if you don't wise up.

That wasn't my claim at all. You were just clicking on that kind of content. You can block those kind of channels. You can click on Nazi videos without being a Nazi and Nazi videos will still flood your feed. I don't even click on some videos because I don't want that kind of video to flood my feed. And I block 100s of channels.

I don't see that you even comprehend the tree's import. Never mind revering it. You don't even understand what Musk accomplished because you have some agenda to advance. Exactly. This is the foolishness of a Marxist. Down with the banks! It's preplexing because you haven't built anything serious in your life. All talk, not a billion to show. Go create a billion in value. Let's see how your view changes.

You misunderstand what I said, why I said it, and the very special context in which it was said. I do not go around calling gay people slurs. I shared an example of how masculine men behave in order to develop masculinity. The entire point of two straight men jokingly calling each other faggot, in the context of approaching women, is to underscore the inapproriateness of being weak and feminine in that context. I used this example precisely because today's men have lost the skill it takes to become a man. To even understand the importance of such a thing. The process of becoming a man is offensive. There is nothing wrong with being gay if that is your thing, but there is a problem with straight men acting gay out of weakness. Such men do not deserve to reproduce. Which is why women will not sleep with them. Whether any of this is offensive or not, this is the reality of how men are made. This reality is not understood in today's politically correctified liberal world, which hurts young men who are trying to figure out masculinity, and so end up turning to toxic rolemodels like Andrew Tate. Because at least he tells them the cold reality of what it takes to become powerful man, which a woke Marxist will never teach them. I say the things I say for didactic purposes. And yes, wokeness does go too far sometimes. This is a great example of such a time. People are so morally outraged at offensive words that they forget that for most people the stakes of life are much more serious than a slur used as a joke in private. If you are disturbed by a word, how are you going to handle a woman, or a bullet to the leg? You won't. You will cry at the sight of pussy juice. Consider this a litmus test for woke snobbery.

That's not what I did. That's not what happened here. There was no serious moral matter here. Just ignorant bluster. Morality does not have to be a performance. It can be substantive. But it is easily turned into a performance by people who don't know any better.

Easy to say once the innovation and investment has been done and borne fruit. This is like some planted and watered an acorn for 30 years, and now you sleep in the shade of the tree and tell him to fuck off, we don't need you anymore, while he is still planting and watering new acorns. He's still working on important new tech. Don't be so dismissive on innovation. Innovation is rare and require genuine leadership. It's not automatic.

@gengar Your moral grandstanding is cringe. Old's trick in the book of the mind's bullshit manuevers.

Lynch's style just not my cup of tea. I know some people love it.

Don't overplay your hand. Musk is a devil. He has no idea what morality is. Like a child playing with dynamite.

Better to make your own pen since the pens you buy will use cheap, poisonous liquids. You think someone selling you a pen cares about your health? Haha

Don't even start. It will take you a decade of work to comprehend the intelligence in things I say.

A devil is resigned to his station.

Get ready for your egg prices to double thanks to tarrifs. Your wallet will be empty by the time Trump is out. But this will teach you a valuable existential lesson about equivocating with the devil. Welcome to the consequences of voting for a devil.

Your openmindedness and willingness to learn is commendable. But it is also true that you take it too far with basic questions that you should be able to answer for yourself. Don't be demoralized. I am trying to help you become more sovereign, which is the best thing for you. I am happy to answer questions, but make sure they are serious, important questions that you are unable to solve on your own.

In the absolute sense of course the good comes with the bad. But people can also improve. We are not asking Musk to be perfect or to change his past. Really all we are asking is for him to humble himself a bit and reflect on how his own egotism is hurting society. This is also something that would benefit his own spirit. Being an egotistical jackass is causing him needless pain.

The difference is I don't cry loudly when someone says I shouldn't use some offensive word. I understand why offensive words and ideas should be limited in public discourse, rather than acting like I am some noble freedom warrior who is being oppressed. Any mature person understands why slurs should be discouraged on social media. But perverts cannot comprehend such a thing.

There's a lot of shit we won't ever know. But it's irrelevant to the issue of Ukraine's international border.

That's a really powerful question. I don't have a good answer. But tolerating falsehood is not necessary. Falsehood should be challenged. We def can't ignore it or give him a pass. Nope. But it's important to keep the materialist perspective of value in the back of your mind because material survival conditions run the world. The real answer here is to distinguish where Musk is doing good and where he is doing bad. Making tech like cars and rockets is good. Corrupt politics, egotism, corrupting Twitter, dancing with Nazis is bad.
