Well, the gravy train has left the station, as it were.

His schtick can be seen as a dog whistle to antisemites.

In a 2022 video, Herrera tested the MP-40 submachine gun, widely used by Nazi soldiers, which he refers to as "Hitler's street sweeper" and "the original ghetto blaster," an allusion to Jews being murdered in ghettos under Nazi occupation.

I think whatever treatment he is taking is making the rest of his hair fall out.

Caitlin KALINOWSKI over X

I resigned from OpenAl. I care deeply about the Robotics team and the work we built together.
This wasn't an easy call. Al has an important role in national security. But surveillance of Americans without judicial oversight and lethal autonomy without human authorization are lines that deserved more deliberation than they got. This was about principle, not people. I have deep respect for Sam and the team, and I'm proud of what we built together.

He doesn't want to be liked; he wants to be respected & admired, two things he has never earned a moment of his entire life. He couldn't care less about anyone else, except for what they will do for him & how fawning over him they are. He has no friends- just tools & sycophants.

They should. The worst thing you can do to him is make fun of his stupidity and mental incapacity. The second is to utterly ignore him and his 4th grade antics.

...and everyone else that was there that failed to intervene as required by law, and assisted him in trying to cover his tracks. All are equally guilty.

I've seen it several times, same source. I think we are done here. Bye.

I'd also suggest that about the same # visit 1800-Horoscope, so I guess it makes it useful, too.

As I said, I'd estimate at least 99% have no such background, so it is kf limited value. There is a whole class of comedy built around the terrible information derived from the site.

I was wondering what your connection was to this. As you cut n paste the same thing over and over. I'm assuming either a shareholder of the holding company, or employee. Seem to have a vested interest in promoting it.

Same bunch that are anti-vaxx because they never knew what a world of deadly endemic diseases looked like.

Won't make a difference. Count this as +1 Democrats in the House.

Because 70 years of hate and damage just disappear overnight.

Mind you, I'm all in favor of ending our bullshit policies about Cuba oh, about 40 years ago. They were stupid & self-defeating then as now. You want regime change in Cuba? End the embargo & open trade with the island.

Makes perfect sense if you assume he is the Antichrist they are worshipping.

And MAGAts ARE worshipping a modern era Antichrist. Irony is dead.

Not your imagination. Al Jazeera is still doing the better job, but even they are fairly constrained.
