Yes you can. There might be consequences, but that will always be the case. If obeying orders breaks the law, and disobeying orders breaks the law, then you’re a criminal either way. Might as well do what you agreed to do when you joined the military: risk your life to defend the constitution.

If the law disagrees, the law is wrong and should be broken. And if that leads to a punishment, just remember that someone is being ordered to punish you, and they can defy those orders too.

So it’s two steps backwards from Lemmy?

Who says “very frightened”? They just say “terrified”, which is surprisingly NOT what the infographic recommends! And “very perfect” is just nonsense. So is “very well-to-do”, which feels like they worked backwards instead of figuring out what “very wealthy” would be.

These guys need to proofread their own work, I guess.

You broke the rules with a bait post. You got told off. You then posted this TWELVE times in unrelated communities hoping for support. Each one has a mass of downvotes. Stop trying to play the victim and just take the damn L.

I learned this from the paw patrol copaganda video on youtube, which does site sources, so you can go from there.

To elaborate for anyone reading this who doesn’t know:

Dogs are really good at noticing emotion in humans, better than they are at noticing the scent of contraband. When an officer wants a dog to alert, the dog picks up on it and alerts, even when there’s nothing there.

There was even a study where they would have a dog try to find out which packages had drugs in. When the officer was fooled, the dog was significantly more likely to be fooled too than when trying to fool only the dog. The officers responded by refusing to continue the experiment.

Yeah, people can be stupid, but they can be less stupid if they know the things they should know. Hence this post.

It is explicitly against the rules, yes. In another community, I’d be all for this.

There are still things that can be done. Elon would really like it if you thought it was hopeless to stop him, because then you wouldn’t try. He is just a human. If enough people actually tried to stop him, he wouldn’t be able to resist.

For clarity, a lot of the things we can do to stop him aren’t strictly legal, especially with the law in the hands they are. Some of the ways that would work are ones I shouldn’t endorse in a public space. But we do still have options.

You seriously need to talk to people if you think that’s how people are. There are people with self-worth issues. There are people who don’t mourn their family. There are people who had body odor problems, and learned how to fix them, and will understand what you’re doing wrong and how to fix it with a sympathetic eye.

AI will respect you exactly as much as a rock will. It won’t. It won’t even know you’re there. There is no such thing as being less human than AI.

You are a part of people. You can pretend you’re not, but it’s only pretend. You’re better than that.

You’ve been spending too much time with AI. You’re starting to hallucinate like one. They only said “people”, not all that extra stuff you just assumed they meant.

I think a good step one would be to stop assuming “people” means “actually loved normal people who view anyone developmentally behind them as subhuman scum.” It could just mean people. You’re a person. You’re part of “people.”

There’s a lot of people who were where you are right now, and they struggled and pushed forward and grew into something not normal, but functional. They have a ton of advice they had to learn the hard way. And they are all too eager to give the compassion they were never given. They will teach you.

Of course you need melon news. You ALWAYS need melon news. I, for one, want as many big, juicy melons on my feed as possible.

I could have said felony, but that refers to the same social group as Elon, so they’d probably want to censor it anyway.

You might want to be careful of the Scunthorpe problem when doing this, and make sure you don’t filter out posts about melons as collateral damage.

It’s tragic, but it isn’t surprising. They were really hoping for another hit like Saints Row, and they just didn’t get it. Sad to see them go, none the less.
