  • The Narcissist's Prayer:

    That didn't happen.And if it did, it wasn't that bad.And if it was, that's not a big deal. <-- We are hereAnd if it is, that's not my fault.And if it was, I didn't mean it.And if I did, you deserved it.

  • What does that even mean? The world economy, you and me and other innocent people, wants and needs the strait to be open.

  • Possibly - but the people here complaining were not very articulate about it...

  • This shooting war is going to end some way, eventually. And the ending is going to be some form of diplomacy, implicit or explicit. Even just agreeing to pretend each other don't exist is a form of diplomacy.

    The only case where Iran should not care about pissing off Trump, was if the US was totally annihilated. Trump is a madman with a nuclear suitcase.

  • makes my brain start to believe in 5D chess.

    It is really not that deep. Trump is a "mad emperor" in an autocratic system. All his ministers know that Trump is literally demented, but they all know that they will pay if they are the first to speak up against Trump. There has been examples of this throughout history.

    So it is exactly as stupid as it seems. I like the term "100 ELO chess". Here is Google's description of 100 ELO chess:

    100 Elo chess represents the absolute beginner level on platforms like Chess.com, often characterized by frequent, accidental hanging of pieces (leaving them undefended), missing basic one-move checkmates, and limited opening knowledge.

  • But Iran does need to negotiate. They are being bombed quite a lot right now. Iran is not going to surrender, but they would prefer not to get bombed. Antagonizing Trump is not going to help Iran.

  • Have you seen how enthusiastic Trump is when talking about the design of the ballroom? Trump loves real estate more than anything. So I think it is all about the ballroom.

  • A solid chunk of the 1/3rd to be murdered is voting for their own murder. 46% of Hispanics and 24% of black men voted for Trump in 2024.

  • They will just round them up and "concentrate" them into camps, while figuring out where to send them. Who knows, maybe some of them will even happen to die while the Republicans try to find a final solution, solving part of the problem that way.

  • Exactly. 90% of Iran's oil leave by sea, via Kharg island.

    If Iran turns to piracy by threatening "pay or we sink your ships" at all other nations, then all other nations should just confiscate all Iran's ships in return.

    Oil revenues are 35% of Iran's budget. This should not be a can of worms that Iran wants to open.

  • So both the US and Iran are breaking international law against each other.

    But Iran is also breaking the right given by international law against neutral nations in this conflict. By restricting their right to shipping. Those nations have every moral and legal right to complain about Iran.

  • If they ever manage to conquer it

    Why do you think that Israel has any desire to conquer Iran? The idea is laughably unfeasible. Israel may be evil, but they are not that stupid.

    I think you may be a bit high on propaganda.

  • They still obviously trained it on the copyrighted text. Which I think is what some claim is illegal without payment?

    Mind you, I don't think copyright should cover that, for text at least. It is not in society's interest.

  • So on one hand people here hate the Democrat leadership (with good reason). But now when this guy is speaking out against the Democrat leadership, you criticize them for internal division?

  • Being out of copyright is kinda irrelevant. There are lawsuits right now, because the AI firms apparently fed the AI's tons of copyrighted books.

  • Most Republicans are not turning on Trump, true. But it doesn't take more than ~5% switching from Republican to Democrat, to make Republicans never win a national election again.

    Looking in from Europe, the immovability of US voters is quite bizarre to me. Most people I know don't have being a "Republican" or similar as part of their personal identity.

  • To be fair, those are some very fuckable horses. For people into stuff like that, I mean,

  • Denmark at least.
