"Citizens will be on their best behavior, because we’re constantly recording and reporting everything that is going on"

-Larry Ellison

But why not just buy a Macbook at that point?

This is always the classic defense whenever Israel is discovered to be doing something nefarious. Used to deflect criticism. Do we have any evidence that other nations are doing this? If we did we did, then that other country would get criticized in the exact same way. They are not being held to a different standard.

An example would be Cambridge Analytica, they got more bad press for doing similarly evil things and they are not Israeli.

Yes other countries do things that are similar, like China. But China doesn't have a "special relationship" with the US like Israel does, they aren't our "greatest ally" like Israel is purported to be, and they don't have staff and representatives at the highest levels of the US government like Israel does.

The difference being that telling someone they are not allowed to use "guys" is not a valid criticism. It's just someone being a bully and trying to language-police others.

It obviously came from Trump via Musk.

Ukraine has been striking Russian refineries, reducing global diesel supply which is already being squeezed by the stupid war in Iran.

Musk gains nothing from disabling Starlink for strike missions inside of Russia. Trump absolutely does benefit from them since his admin is bearing the blame of invading Iran and it’s killing him in the midterms.

Kushner and company are directly tied to Israeli politics. The Israel lobby gives money to 80+% of US Congress and helps staff dem and republican White House’s. These people are completely immune no matter which party is in power.

That’s crazy, what was the context? Like they said you were giving them too many baths? Did they not bathe their own kids??

It’s like the entire city of Austin. It’s also the entire Bay Area.

I’m only making the point that it’s a real product and you can buy it. Sort of implied by the parent comment of it being a “scam” meaning that it was never delivered.

HW3 gets a supervised version which is the best they can do with the hardware that they shipped, it’s unfortunate I agree but it’s not totally out of line with what happens with other devices like the iPhone. Apple has a version of Apple Intelligence which is neutered on older devices, presumably because of hardware limitations.

I can go book an FSD robotaxi right now in downtown Austin TX, I know because I’ve done it many times. It’s real and works great. Not sure what you mean about FSD.

It’s honestly a very dangerous mentality. It’s what makes people do things like murder Charlie Kirk in cold blood for doing nothing other than speaking words, or attempt to shoot Trump at a campaign event.

It leads them to become the very bigots they think they are fighting against.
