What is this obsession with pedophilia? I'm really getting rather suspicious of MAGA. I suspect your average Catholic priest or Southern Baptist youth pastor thinks about nude children less than most MAGA individuals.

It could be interpreted as either biological, nurture driven, or both. The idiot parents who are reproducing en masse raise their kids to be idiots. The warning of Idiocracy is valid regardless of where one stands regarding the hereditary nature of intelligence/IQ.

If this was "normal" in US, fracking boom wouldn't have happened, for largely same reasons it didn't happen across EU. Popular resistance from land owners. No one wanted to deal with problems of fracking on their land, without getting well compensated for it.

In US, land owners got compensated, so they pushed for it. US federalism does allow for people to run their states like pants on the head retarded communists (which is actually rare for communists, most tend to be of at least average intelligence and significant plurality are highly intelligent, see Chinese Communists where 130IQ is estimated to be on the lower end needed to get into party leadership role).

But your name suggests you're an Oregonian, and Oregon is indeed one of those rare exceptions that proves the rule. Utter far left insanity in leadership, and not even the intelligent kind unlike for example Chinese.

You could start with the fact that he secured by far the most investments out of all AI companies for his company.

You could then go on to note them being top attractors of relevant talent in the field, and having stayed that way for many years at this point.

Then you can proceed to noting that he has become the de facto public face of current AI push. Most people have no idea who leads Anthropic. Meanwhile pretty much everyone who follows AI even remotely knows who Altman is.

So best investment acquisition, best hiring capability, best PR just to name a few critical fields for a CEO. To argue with those results is to argue with reality. You can hate man all you want (frankly, it's easy to do, dude is a shifty asshole with physiognomy of a used car salesman). But results speak for themselves.

Delusion of Divinity of Man rather than accepting that human is an evolved animal is a pretty common reason for having problems dealing with reality nowadays.

Notably human leaders generally don't kill infants of previous leaders, because our tribal structures evolved to be different from lions. We had our evolutionary divergence from them a very long time ago.

Your full caps lock line appears to have omitted the critical "EV" part and claims, and I quote:

>MOST PEOPLE DON'T WANT A "FULL-SIZED" FUCKING TRUCK. THEY'RE TOO GODDAMN BIG.

It seems that there's a desperate need to argue with results/reality among journo class today.

You can call Altman a "bad man" all you want. He actually continues to deliver results. And his sole job, and a measuring stick by which he is measured is "is he delivering results or not?"

Specifics of how he does it is only relevant for those within his organization.

Essentially this seems to be another case of farming naive people who genuinely believe that "bad men" shouldn't lead for clicks.

Welcome to the natural world. This behavior is normal among all social species with hierarchical social structures.

It's why every human culture has it.

Fracking.

Borderline free natgas produces same amount of energy while emitting approximately half of CO2 emissions of coal. So if you care about CO2 emissions, and you have the kind of geology current US fracking areas have, you go all out on it. Cheaper reliable power than coal.

Problem is, that is indeed a function of rather unique ecology in US. Where US has something like 12 layers of oil and gas that can be fracked in its best fracking areas, EU's best areas have about 5. Horrific regulatory nonsense where government rather than people owns what's under privately owned land also guarantees that property owners are massively incentivized to fight fracking, as they get all the downsides and none of the windfall.

And rest of the world doesn't have the CO2 neurosis, so they just don't care and go coal. As OP admits: emissions are rapidly going up and there's no end to increase in sight as we're lifting the poor out of poverty, primary requirement for which is cheap and available power.

We finally found the reason Cybertruck exists. It's to shatter the cars of the people that "want to casually crush children, grandparents, and midsize sedans underneath their wheels".

That's why it has that hilariously thick and hard steel body. Now it makes sense.

It's really odd when people insist on arguing with reality and expecting to win. A single look at most sold cars for previous year worldwide tells you that Ford F-series is a massive seller:

Double so considering that this is worldwide numbers, and F-series primarily sells in US.

US is a massive manufacturer of steel to this day.

It's specialty is recycled steel, which requires a specific technology set. Notably it's a common feature of developed nations that have already built up their main infrastructure to modern standards, because that leads to having a very large amount of recyclable steel you need to do something with as you renew your infrastructure over time.

PRC swallowed virgin steel production, which is common for nations building up infrastructure, and having very little recyclable steel available.

That's your literal statement though.

While reality is the exact opposite by the numbers, as I note above.

What basis do you have to believe that Gaben cares about this?

The only one I can think of is that he's exceptionally into PR legacy building over being a normal man and caring about his family. Problem is, there's very little supporting evidence for this in both his behavior and him talking on record.

Literal communists, people who to this day base their politics on complex interpretations of Communist theory and have entire research departments dedicated to this specific fields are not communist... because they don't have universal health care.

Did you get this from tiktok or bluesky?
