Title should be:

Meet the federal worker who did not blindly follow rogue president: ‘I hope that it lights a fire under people’

I think this is a Shittshitpost.

Stupid sexy Frodo.

If these apply to you then you may need to contact a physician veterinarian immediately

Thank you for your service.

Yah, the at times almost universal male genital mutilation in the US goes back to religious nutjobs like Kellog & co to stop boys from masturbating. It’s also what motivated Kellog, in his quest for the blandest food, to invent cornflakes, because, apparently, spicy foods make you naughty. Good Glob, I wish I was kidding.

This has got to be part of a bigger ploy to undermine the Onion and other satire publications.

I read your comment as snarky and sly. Sorry if I misinterpreted it.

If you really want to understand what he’s saying I suggest you read up on South African history. Or go the easier route and listen to the podcast “History of South Africa” by Des Latham which you can find, for example, on Spotify. Your line of questioning and the downvotes on that comment are a display of ignorance. It was simply a statement of facts, no questioning of Elon being an incarnate turd.

A distinction necessitated by marketing abusing it and watering it down beyond usefulness. Rinse and repeat and we’ll be talking about SAAGAITSRI (super advanced actual general artificial intelligence that shows real intelligence) in 10 to 20 years.

Yah, right, and Hitler was a communist. /s

I’ve no time/energy to deal with that level of trolling right now.

Let’s go ahead and call Trump’s politics “liberal justice”. It’s all just meaningless words that we can associate with whatever we want. That’s more along the lines of how “AI” is used in marketing.

No. That’s another bullshit marketing term people came up with when confronted with the fact that their “AI” contains no I.

Nothing in existence that has been labeled AI is AI. If AI (actual meaning of the words) exists, it’s in some secret facility and we don’t know about it. AI outside of fiction is a meaningless marketing term. That was already the case before LLMs and stable diffusion.

DEI, all of them. They look like being assigned male at birth, but have obviously all transitioned into massive cunts.

I happen to have the original CDs and might be of help in preservation efforts. Not quite sure where I misplaced them, but I just had NOLF 2 in my hands.

On one side, I find this comic to be super hilarious each time I see it, on the other it hits so close to home and tracks so well with reality each time …

I tend to mostly agree with what you’re saying, but there’s no common theme to our comments. I referred to nothing but the first sentence of your previous comment.

That being said, I’m totally in favor of state armories, like Springfield used to be, but that’s not what we have right now. And never really had in Germany for the past 100+ years. And whether you privatize the manufacture of weapons or not, everyone involved in it needs to make a decent living. R&D needs to be done and financed, either from profit or tax-payer money. In my book the personal enrichment by a select few on the top is bad, no matter the industry. Allowing arms to be exported where they shouldn’t be, is a political “failure”; it’s an indirect subsidy that other states pay for to keep your own supply cheap and running. That’s not an arms manufacturer’s CEO’s fault. He is just a regular CEO asshole, and still would be, if “working” in another industry.

It’s not out of civility, and I think there are good reasons to dislike Armin Papperger; for example him being a filthy stinking rich CEO and him allowing deals with non-European countries. But, we need our militaries and we need our weapons industry. The military aid we sent to Ukraine did not materialize out of thin air. The pacifist position of “war bad, weapons bad, people making weapons bad” is infantile. If we stopped making weapons, Russia, or someone else, would waltz right in. Our military (and by extension the weapons industry) is what enables any of our diplomacy to not be completely ignored by nuclear bullies like Russia. A Russian plot to kill Armin Papperger is an attack against us, Germany, the west, NATO, not him individually.
