@EdBoatConnoisseur Nah, Israel is 100% more based than the rest.

From what I gather, the situation is: "you have a right to bear arms, but you don't get to threaten people".
P.S. "aristic" Where you trying to say "autistic" or "artistic"?
@zero Someone with a Twitter account should @ pippa for the lolz and ask her to disavow.

Nope.
@icedquinn Could easily be a case of dual-use tech.
Could be nothing of course, but it smells fishy to me. The feature list and readme is ridiculously long and detailed for an open source software project on it's first release. It could make sense if they moved the repository from somewhere else to github recently.
@icedquinn Sounds like the kind of software you'd use for a Chinese social media human bot farm.

Watched this to see what the fuss was about.
His answer was "no".
Still don't see what the fuss is about.

I didn't choose autism. I was born in it, molded by it. You merely adopted autism.

Right idea, wrong application. Paint your roof white to reduce the effect of global warming, and keep your house cooler during summer.

Almost two decades ago, I was going through a crisis of faith of sorts. I've always been interested in science. It butted heads with Christianity, and I couldn't figure out what's what.
Having access to the internet, I thought: we're in the age of digital cameras everywhere, and free flowing information. If god is real, and he makes miracles happen, proof HAS to be out there.
So I went looking for video proof of miracles. And I only managed to find the Western equivalent of this.
That's how I started down the path to atheism. People can keep believing in Jesus and god if they want. But I simply can't. After I've seen countless examples of this, there's no way I can look at religion and not think it's the longest running scam of mankind.

In a way, it's kinda scary to think of MatPat going into politics. Cause you know he can do research when he needs to, but more importantly, he knows how to bullshit and convince people with bullshit. To this day, I'm still 100% convinced Rosalina is the daughter of Luigi and Peach, so basically Mario got NTRed by his brother.
So MatPat might actually be dangerous, because his reputation is clean enough, and he's done mental gymnastics for long enough, that he might actually be able to convince people to do what he says.
But he's also either bad at reading people, stupid, or secretly evil. The day I found out he hired MovieBob to write for him, is the day I decided I want nothing to do with this man anymore. MovieBob is THE genocidal psychopath of our time. The guy literally complained that Hitler gave eugenics a bad name... Like what the fuck are your plans for mankind if you're concerned that people don't like eugenics?!
So my question regarding MatPat is, what kind of person hires someone like MovieBob without doing a background check? Or does he look at MovieBob and thinks he's ok, because MatPat can't see behind the layers of fat and read the Blob for the psycho he is? Or is MatPat evil himself? I don't know... So I don't trust MatPat. Not for one second.
In the modern day we complain about guilt by association, but there's been a proverb as old as time, that goes something like: "tell me who your friends are, and I'll tell you who you are". The Romanian version is closer to "birds of a feather flock together". This isn't two people that had one online conversation once, and people are using guilt by association because of it. MatPat hired MovieBob, out of his own volition, to write for his child-friendly show. MatPat chose this association.
You'd think that the least bad possibilities is that MatPat is stupid or bad at reading people. But imagine he ends up President, and he is surrounded by people he badly chose, who manipulated their way into his cabinet, and MatPat never realized these were bad people. And then one day, his staff start goating him into starting a world war, because it would be good for the arms manufacturers.
In Trump's case, even he admits he had some bad people around him during his first term, and look at the results. Even his defenders agree that 2016-2020 wasn't as great as it should have been. In these cases, who your leader picks around him matters as much, if not more, than the leader himself. You can't have someone that picks psychopaths around him by mistake.
@zero I feel like I know that face... Can't remember who he is, but I feel like his face is in the part of my brain that stores "idiots I shouldn't waste my time interacting with".
