    most people learn that two wrongs don't make a right. Cheering on the person who is least antisemitic means everyone loses.

    It's only a culture war because of transphobes trying to muddy the waters regarding what gender affirming care and the importance of transgender support.

    It's highly unlikely he wins because it's not wrong to point out Nazi content and it's not wrong for companies to pull away from the website. If any pro Nazi ads are on the site then MM wins hands down. Also, the site doesn't need anymore Nazi content, what with Musk bringing them in, paying them, and he himself echoing that.

    We also need less of it here, so if you could be gone, that would be the bees knees.

    Particularly hilarious coming from the dipshits who pretend that "antisemitism" means "criticism of the Israeli government."

    You want to know why right-wing talking points are labeled hate speech so often? Because they fucking are. If conservatism wasn't based so heavily on bigotry and exclusion, people espousing conservative ideals would find themselves labeled as hate mongers much less often. Funny how that works.

    Can you say the west is Russia's friend?

    Why would they, and why bring up this random off topic stuff?

    Russia has invaded a neighbour for daring to be pro-west and repeatedly threatend invasions against other western nations.

    Why the F*** would the west ever consider Russia a friend
    It ignores such insignificant forces as time, entropy, and death

    I believe I know a country which invades anything and everything it deems a threat or a viable target for it's interests.

    Why would west be so alien to Russia protecting it's security and people is beyond me.

    agreed: why would Russia consider west to be it's friend.
    Doubly so if you take into account that the infamous okraine Maidan in 2014 was staged and sponsored by guess who.

    They gotta make your script less obvious. Perhaps ask your boss to look up what subtlety is.

    I'll take an infraction for micro-modding by saying that you should continue the russia talk in the invasion thread.

    So to pivot, anything funky Elon has done? How's the current situation of the ps1 graphics truck?

    Funny you should ask!

    Tesla workers report explosions, concussions, and grisly robot injuries at Texas factory
    As Tesla prepares to deliver its first Cybertrucks to customers, a new report paints a grisly picture of the Texas factory where the truck is being built, including a casting machine explosion and a robot allegedly goring a worker.

    The Information reported some of the gruesome incidents that have occurred at the Gigafactory in Austin, Texas, where one out of every 21 workers were reportedly hurt in 2022. The data is derived from the required injury reports Tesla submits to OSHA.

    One incident in 2021 involved an engineer who approached a supposed shutdown robot arm but got clawed and pinned to the wall by the machine performing its programmed motions. A witness said the engineer bled from his back and arms, and after someone hit the emergency stop button, the engineer pulled himself out and fell into a chute, leaving a trail of blood.

    But don't worry, just because his Texas factory is a real-life horror movie, that doesn't mean he's not busy doing stupid stuff over at his $44 billion 8chan clone. (Who would have guessed the Twitter bird was a Norwegian Blue parrot?)

    Congrats To Elon Musk: I Didn’t Think You Had It In You To File A Lawsuit This Stupid. But, You Crazy Bastard, You Did It!
    So, yesterday we covered Elon Musk’s ridiculous censorial threat to sue Media Matters “the split second the court opens on Monday.” Of course, as we noted, you can file lawsuits 24/7. And yet, as the courts opened on Monday, there was nothing. As mentioned in the original post, I was away from internet access for most of Monday, and when I finally got back online I was told there was still no lawsuit.

    But, then, on Monday evening, the lawsuit finally came, and it was glorious. Gloriously stupid.

    Honestly, this feels like what you get when you have a rich but legally ignorant dude who announces on a Friday that there will be a lawsuit on Monday and finally finds some terrible lawyers who are actually willing to file something just to live up to that promise.

    It’s not a good lawsuit. It’s barely even a lawsuit at all.

    So unapologetically pushing Russian propaganda as if it had any connection to reality, then.

    Russia is getting pushback for its brutal invasion of a sovereign nation that posed not threat to Russia whatsoever. Rightfully. If you can't admit that, you're here to push propaganda rather than engage honestly.

    Gotten into a fight with the Unions of Sweden for refusing to have industry wide Union Contracts.
    A fight Toy'R'Us lost back in the 90ies.

    Currently he isn't getting license plates sent to factories.
    Among other things not being delivered. (No union transport worker will deliver either. And union shops won't work on TESLAs).

    1 in 12 injured based on required reporting? Wtf. Anywhere else in the western world and they would get shut down by the labour department for such an utterly abysmal safety record.
