"America isn't as racist and misogynist as I was led to believe!"
No, Mr. Musk, it isn't.
It's exactly as racist and misogynist as Trump believes it to be, however, sadly.
Edir: To amend this... I don't believe Trump is the same sort of bigot that Musk is. Musk is a white supremacist, Trump is an oldschool, American, Republican-as-jellybeans conservative. Trump isn't a nazi, he's "grumpy old man yells at cloud", he's more Grand Torino than American History X.
I hate both, but a burning amount of joy comes from knowing they probably hate eachother more
Lack of father figures mixed with a regressive world that is admittedly going to shit, whereas millennials and genx were raised thinking they'd be something, with teen angst and rebellion also in the mix. Don't forget a heaping-helping of Hollywood and mainstream media taking a focus entirely away from men in the last 20 years and replacing it with nothing. Fill in the voids with some toxic masculinity influencers and shake vigorously...
And there you have it, a misogynist that blames everyone else for their problems, with a good chunk of those problems actually being valid.
It will happen to YOU!
Young people thinking their Ai waifu is real
Boomers thinking America was great and not just racist and imperialist
Gen X being really entitled because they were raised by Boomers
Millennials being the best at everything
I agree 100%.
Are we really going to devil's advocate for the idea that avoiding society and asking a language model for life advice is okay?

The article targets its study on Gen Z but.... yeah, the elderly aren't exactly winners here, either.
The batshit insane part of that is they could just make easy canned answers for thank yous, but nope...IT'S THE USER'S FAULT!

You won't get downvoted to hell. Custom roms are popular on the federnet. Most of us avoid Samsung.
I think they're fine phones, just locked down and their UI is annoying.
They'll raise everyone's to offset the amount they have to increase on America.

Christian 2: "No, you're not a true Christian!"
...which one do I shoot, guys!? Who's real!?
You've made a point. The fanboyism and simping is so deep, there's nothing you can do but block the content.

Our family group used to have a Signal chat until the older people in the family started having issues remembering their pins.
They were using MMS before, but the depth of privacy needed for them was mostly dinner plans, so when the Signal chat dried up, I didn't really care or push back on it. Whatever. I just told them that they'd get zero depth out of me beyond surface level information unless it was on Signal, but in the end our conversations never went deep enough to matter unless someone couldn't log into Jellyfin, and by that point, they'd ask in person.
