The Click-Bait Headline Thread

I struggle to believe that Elon is that smart and that dumb. Even if the ADL says no foul, the easy way to settle it was for him to say, "Sorry, that wasn't my intent." Given his affiliations lately, I don't think it's that complicated.

The YouTube algorithm, which has been attributed to a great deal of radicalization, is really the only one getting it right for me, and it has for years. Outside of my subscriptions, if only suggests things related to those, which are all science, tech, maker stuff and a little bit of music and theater.

Vater:

Whatever, dude. You weren't a part of the conversation.

Wow. I had no idea you'd been given the power to decide who could and could not participate in a coasterbuzz thread.

Cool cool cool.

I'm talking about the conversation I had with my friend.

Vater:

Also, I guess I'm a "special kind of asshole."

I just realized this was in reference to my blog post. Are you making AI generated images to influence people? My guess is no, so I certainly wasn't referring to you.

Ah, my bad. I mistakenly attributed that comment to the first part of the previous sentence: "But for whatever reason, there are people willing to make excuses for poor behavior", not the second part. Not that I'm making excuses, I just don't see what he did was definitively nefarious like everyone else seems to. Maybe I'm naive, but I don't think the man would pull a stunt that would so obviously be political suicide.

If there were such a thing as political suicide still, Trump would not be president.
