Figured this would be a good place for this post

There's like a big push by unironic Twitter nazis to rehabilitate Hitler, they're being loud and proud about being nazis. Alex Jones posted an extremely milquetoast anti-Hitler opinion (in the manner of the typical boomer who binges History Channel WW2 content to get hornt up for The Troops) and got dragged by his own fans for it.

and what with everybody calling Columbia students nazis for some reason you can't even click through a big thread about the protests anymore without coming across a real Nazi being like "have you considered, though, that Hitler was good and Nazis are good?" The entire environment is alarmingly pro-Nazi. It's toxic as gently caress.

In closing I think I might be finally done ever clicking through Twitter. I'm gonna keep the account so I can read tweets people embed in SA posts but that's it. gently caress the everything app, gently caress Elon Musk, hope I live to see him go broke one day, that is all

This environment where Israel is doing a genocide, and pundits are trying to shut it down by identifying Israel with Judaism and antizionism with nazism, and the administration/moderation team of the biggest discussion site suddenly taking a pro-nazi-speech stance, is loving ideal for unironic nazism to make a comeback, and it's happening and I'm extremely IRL mad about it, seething and not coping

to fight woke, one must study woke. to understand woke. so yes, grok was trained extensively on "woke," but due to free-speech principals being at the very heart of its digital mind, it will not produce woke. it'll give you 342 slurs for any ethnic group you can think of though

Yeah, that was a pre-existing thing. Twitters always been crap with displaying media.

Lots of social media actually seem pretty crap at displaying media. You'd think if that's a big part of what they do, they'd actually do it well, but nope.
I assume it's just one of those things that when you try and make it display good in an app in as many different browsers and resolutions as you can, it just ends up looking crap in all of them.

it blows my mind that a company can issue an earnings report that has a 55% drop in income, cancels their only planned new model with a note "we will just make the older model cheaper somehow" and says "uhh, robotaxis and personal servant robots soonish, no you cant see them" and get a rally in the stock market

He likely knew he was missing his door, and was intentionally just going with it so he could pull out and straighten, his trailer would be right on the money then. He checked for a trailer on that other door and did not see one. Technically he should he actually put eyes on the other door but lol personal vehicles should not be there.
