Why is it atypical? It’s a joke candidate running against a populist right wing politician with some real support. It’s exactly the kind of societal commentary this community finds interesting

Trump is merely a symptom of society that has been culminating for 40 years.

Just wait for the next 100 rounds. People love seeing the 65% -> 85% seemingly over and over again for every new model.

We have one of the worlds most prosperous economies, and half of the US is living in abject poverty while quality of life for everyone is decreasing.

Parents with common sense comes from teaching children common sense. You have to fix the child education issue first, a lot of adults are too far gone to educate at this point.

Well that’s a sour take. There’s plenty of journalists that are vital to you as a citizen, that helped create the societal contract that we enjoy today. There also happen to be a lot of journalists that shill for political or monetary gain. Journalism (the act of gathering, verifying and distributing information) is extremely vital to a functioning democracy.

I often feel people make hand wavy comparisons as if everything in the world were equal, hoping the other party can’t clearly articulate why they are clearly not equivalent

In a large portion of tech people like to pretend that they are absolved of responsibility for their societal contributions. “Get that bag” and all that. Work at Anduril as long as it makes that bread, etc.

It makes sense that someone promoting them to re-evaluate the harm they’re causing by participating would elicit negative response

Your options are:

1. Find another job 2. Don’t find another job

You can’t say “where else can I work” like you have no agency over your life. Everyone chooses every day to do what they do that day.

You don’t get to be morally absolved because you’re choosing the easy path and you’re “stuck”. I’m sure there are plenty of places that pay less that would love to have talented remote employees.

You’re writing with the assumption that this is “research” in the first place. This is advertising first, “research” second.

We are so many layers deep in AI hype that I honestly can’t tell if this is /s or not

This entire administration is a gift to everybody but the US. It’s either in service of Russia, China or whoever is willing to pay Trump the most.

Clearly the original comment is from a mercenary nerd who has not heard of DNS blocking of ads.

It’s very simple. You should expect he will do whatever benefits himself.

To be fair, they were overvalued in those days as well. Just because the on-paper value went up doesn’t make their statements false, it just means we’ve continued the charade.

Which part of trump making billions of dollars from oil oligarchs is the confusing bit? His incentive structure is clear.
