The United States and the UK successfully blocked attempts to outlaw all use of incendiary weapons

That’s because incendiary weapons are great for exterminating villages full of poor people in the colonized world - ie, the kind of wars the US and UK prefer to wage.

Artificial intelligence is worse than humans in every way

As if capitalists have ever cared about that…

He’d patent avocado genetics and call them “xavocados.”

crystal ball

The nature of capitalism and the capitalist class haven’t been a secret now for more than a hundred years. No crystal balls required.

he might have done something worthwhile

No, he wouldn’t have. Musk is an incompetent billionaire parasite, even more incompetent than the average billionaire parasite, and would have simply squandered his ill-gotten money on something else.

So Apartheid Boy just said the quiet part out loud?

Color me surprised.

Let’s jusy call it Shitter, then.

There are some countries in Africa that isn’t impoverished enough yet.

I remember when I was growing up,

You remember propaganda (when corporations do it, it’s called “Public Relations”).

That’s what you remember. Now, thanks to the internet democratizign information somewhat, they don’t just get to feed us their “public relations” anymore. Now people can counter that shit, and people see them for what they really are - parasites.

If you’re going to “chase your dreams,” it might be a good idea to first figure out whether they actually really are yours.

Hard yes from me, thank you.

That depends on what you mean by intelligence.

It’s still anecdotal evidence which turns into common sense.

You mean how the “anecdotal evidence” that the earth is actually round turned into “common sense?”

Yeah, you’re completely right - none of that shit should be trusted until an overmoneyed dork with a fancy piece of tertiary education institution stationary shows up to prove how stupid we are for doing anything without his approval.

That which is easily observable is not “anecdotal.”

A lot of people legitimately think cats are loner sociopaths.

That says more about the people who think this than cats.

That’s the whole point of science, don’t trust common sense, prove it.

This has nothing to do with common sense - it’s easily observable behavior that any experienced pet owner could tell you about.

I want to get bitten by a baby red panda and gain the power to hibernate through winter.

Oh look… a white supremacist desperately trying to “whatabout” more than a hundred years of US terrorism.
