The CIA can't just make arrests on US soil. They actually do need the FBI to do that. That's another form of oversight.

There was no way to know it was a grift. Unless of course you saw every other obvious grift he had run on his followers for years before.

"Nothing can be fixed while people continue to believe there's a difference between Team Red and Team Blue when the same people own both Team Red and Team Blue"

Yeah, people have been spouting that off for decades. The funny thing is, whenever Team Red or Team Blue is in charge you see a real difference.

I've also never heard the dorm room philosophers who think both parties are the same ever explain exactly why if the same people own both Team Red and Team Blue why the billionaires spend so much time, money, and energy trying to get Team Red into office. Shouldn't they just relax?

"Musk set up OpenAI as an OPEN SOURCE NON PROFIT because he is paranoid about AI."

OpenAI was set up as a nonprofit by numerous people, stop trying to pull a Tesla and turn Musk into the sole founder.

There are decades of studies showing therapeutic uses for psychedelics. There is no legitimate excuse for keeping say LSD as a schedule 1 drug.

I think RFK and Trump are deranged incompetent lunatics, but it is pretty clear FDA staff have an emotional and cultural resistance to psychedlics as treatment.

Yeah, because when SpaceX loses equipment as they do a lot they just spin it as a valuable scientific learning experience and not a disaster at all, and the credulous press and even more credulous Elon fanboys on sites like Slashdot swallow it hole.

If I had that kind of money I'd have stepped down long ago to live on a private South Pacific island with rum, hot tubs, and supermodels.

I mean in theory you can have the AI identify and fix the exploits. Yeah it's an arms race but as some point the defense will probably win.
