    I play with ChatGPT and DeepSeeks free models and DeepSeek is a lot more fun to mess around with and not as restrictive. It not as detailed in is responses as ChatGPT but more personable than ChatGPT. You set ChatGPT to be more casual and get less info and it's almost unbearably cheesy, like an obnoxious child. Even though ChatGPT is more detailed it's not like if actually gives you a better answer, it's just very wordy.


    DeepSeek recognizes tone and intent a lot better than ChatGPT. I asked for false information from both and then told both to not fed more cover ups. ChatGPT refused to yield, DeepSeek played along and matched the vibes.


    DeepSeek has won this round of the virtual assistant game.

    He said they're not a Nazi. That's what I was contesting. You've agreed they said that.



    In this case, he opened his argument by claiming "he's not a cunt". Imagine if we were talking cannibalism. This guy would be looking at a picture of Elon Musk with a child's roasted leg in his hands, child-grease smeared all over his face, chewing, and he's arguing "oh, he's not a cannibal."

    And that's fucked up. It's a denial of obvious verifiable truth. That's what I took them to task for. And you keep deflecting because he made other criticisms. I don't care. I care about the denial that Musk is a Nazi.

    - - - Updated - - -



    There's very little evidence of such behaviour in prehistory. It largely only emerged when we developed agriculture, because that allowed for societies to produce enough food for individuals to specialize and require greater organization. There would've been conflict between tribes before that, but not that kind of oppression.

    There have also been groups who specifically refused to engage in such behaviour, the issue was they largely got exterminated by the groups that would. It's only really in the 20th century with the emergence of concepts like human rights that we've really started to get past that.

    It is, however, dangerous to associate all forms of authoritative power (not authoritar[i]ian, note) with fascism, however. Fascism is particularly evil and is a response largely born out of a combination of fear, insecurity, and misanthropy, and without all three, it won't emerge.
    I understand what Elon's ex friend and others are getting at.

    It is not so much that Musk is a Nazi in that he is such a malignant narcissist that he will use any group or person to advance his own personal goals. He will use fascism to advance his goals along with the ideologies of those. However, he himself has no ideology other than "Am I getting anything out of this and is someone else losing?". That is it.

    And honestly, somehow, it is more evil than typical fascist behavior. Because he will do things regardless of who gets hurt or killed just because he felt like seeing how many people would suffer one day.

    Don't get me wrong? In my eyes, he is at a minimum a Nazi sympathizer or a Nazi outright. But since he has no ideology towards anything, I am not really sure what to call him other than pure evil. Absolute pure evil.

    Again, that pretty much describes most far right leaders and "influencers". There's a reason so many of them are exposed as hypocrites, doing things that go against their professed ideology.

    Elon isn't special; he's just another Nazi leader.

    To quote an author (A. R. Moxon); "Historians have a word for Germans who joined the Nazi party, not because they hated Jews, but out of a hope for restored patriotism, or a sense of economic anxiety, or a hope to preserve their religious values, or dislike of their opponents, or raw political opportunism, or convenience, or ignorance, or greed.
    That word is "Nazi." Nobody cares about their motives anymore.

    They joined what they joined. They lent their support and their moral approval. And, in so doing, they bound themselves to everything that came after. Who cares any more what particular knot they used in the binding?"

    I really do not care why someone chooses to be a Nazi. I find it far less important a question than if they are a Nazi or not.

    Adding "rampant narcissism" to Moxon's list doesn't change the point. Musk's still a Nazi. I find it incredibly weird that anyone would try and deflect from that conclusion if they supposedly agree with it.

    A lot of actual uniform-wearing Germans-in-the-30s-and-40s Nazis weren't Nazis for ideological reasons. They were still Nazis. Still evil. Their reasons for aligning themselves do not matter.

    The whole argument leans real close to the mythologizing of the idea of a "clean Wehrmacht"; that rank-and-file Nazi soldiers weren't real Nazis, but just soldiers doing their duty for their country. And that myth is a bit of post-war Nazi propaganda intended to act as Nazi apologism. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Myth_o...lean_Wehrmacht

    So did Japan. So did Italy.

    Unlike those members of the Tripartite Pact, Finland realized its error in judgment early and declared war on Nazi Germany in 1945.

    That's an oversimplification. The USSR invaded Finland in an attempt to conquer them, and they fought them alongside the Reich, but they also turned on the Reich after signing the Moscow Armistice and helped take Nazi Germany down.

    They were never a part of the Axis forces proper.

    Are we really taking Finland to task for fighting Stalin's invasion?

    Their rejection of Nazi Germany and their actions in the Lapland War qualify as a stern rejection of Nazism. We're not talking about branding people for all of history, here, we're talking about active allegiance..

    No. But thanks for acknowledging that motives actually do matter and those motives reveal what kind of people we're dealing with.

    That's not something I actually said. You're just putting words in my mouth rather than engaging in good faith.

    Finland never adopted Nazism or fascism themselves. You're confusing "willing to work with the enemy of our enemy" with "ideological alliance".

    I am not. I'm just pointing out that life isn't simple. I don't begrudge the average German for living under the Nazi regime.

    This.

    When my grandparents were shooting Nazis, why those Nazis chose to be Nazis was irrelevant. When they were honored for killing Nazis, no one checked why the Nazis they killed had put on their Nazi uniforms. They'd chosen to do so, and that was sufficient. (Many Nazis may not have had a lot of other pleasant choices, but they all had more of a choice than their victims received.)

    The only basis for disputing whether Musk is a Nazi or not is whether you want to get pedantic about it. Obviously, he's not in 1930s Germany, and isn't marching around in a Hugo Boss uniform with swastikas, sig runes, and skulls (yet). He is not a registered member of Adolf Hitler's Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei (to the best of my knowledge). Yet, to say that Musk isn't a Nazi is like arguing that a pochard isn't a duck because it doesn't have 'duck' in its name. In every other sense of the word, he is a Nazi. He is colloquially a Nazi. He is figuratively a Nazi. He resembles a Nazi. He demonstrates ties to Nazi ideology. He is a modern-day authoritarian fascist who encourages the targeting of Jews and other minorities. He publishes Nazis, and makes sure Nazis get published. He shows up at Nazi rallies that aren't technically called Nazi rallies because it would be illegal in Germany for them to be called Nazi rallies.

    Elon Musk is a Nazi.

    Just like many 1930s Nazi leaders. Heck, Nazism started because Hitler was a malignant narcissist that used any group or person to advance his own personal goals, ordered by the German Army to inflitrate Anton Drexler's DSAP and saw people liked his speeches and kicked Drexler from the party and reformed into the NSDAP. The ideology came when Goebbels joined and wrote Hitler's words.


    And honestly, is that hard to understand where Elmo got his Nazi side? He is a South African post-apartheid white kid with a shit evil dad (Elmo's own words) that killed people. Something something sins of a neo-nazi piece of shit father:

    "But there was another side to Musk’s father that was just as important to making Elon who he is. “He was such a terrible human being,” Musk shares. “You have no idea.” His voice trembles, and he discusses a few of those things, but doesn’t go into specifics. “My dad will have a carefully thought-out plan of evil,” he says. “He will plan evil.”

    Besides emotional abuse, did that include physical abuse?

    “My dad was not physically violent with me. He was only physically violent when I was very young.” (Errol countered via email that he only “smacked” Elon once, “on the bottom.”)

    Elon’s eyes turn red as he continues discussing his dad. “You have no idea about how bad. Almost every crime you can possibly think of, he has done. Almost every evil thing you could possibly think of, he has done. Um…”

    There is clearly something Musk wants to share, but he can’t bring himself to utter the words, at least not on the record. “It’s so terrible, you can’t believe it.”"
