The only “insults” in there is “too many” and “boredom”. That is a weak first round.
Speaking the truth can be boring, not that LLMs could relate and the only “too many”, that grok should be concerned about, is the “too many” liters of water that it is wasting to produce such a weak and boring roast. If you kill the planet at least make it fun.
Just don’t pick up the phone… It is probably broken anyway after being soaked like that

I have 2 of the same teacher. She was an elderly history teacher and I wished I could say a good one.
She wants to watch a Columbus movie after the exams. We were pretty hyped because watching movies is chill. The movie starts and something graphical happened, she immediately skipped a couple minutes. If you have any understanding of the history of Columbus, you can see how this ends… The next graphical scenes come and go in a quick skip. At one point, Columbus was in America, Columbus did Columbus things and she skipped so far forward that he was back in Spain. And in the end, we “watched” a 2 hrs movie in 30/40 minutes. She asked how we finished the movie so quickly. I know what happened in the movie because I know history but I don’t know the movie at all.
It is summer. No Aircon. Big glass windows. In lunch break, people leave to buy 1,5 liter bottles of water for insanely cheap. Everyone! Has! These! Bottles! Everyone is drinking their water in the lunch break. Class starts. Everyone is paying attention and is working. Someone asks “hey, could I go to the toilet, please?”. Teacher allows them. Everyone else is reminded that toilets exist and how much water they have drunk. A bunch of people ask one by one if they could go to the toilet and the teacher allows it one by one. At some point, literally everyone who had to visit the toilet but 1 person went to the toilet, and she exclaims “stop asking! Just go when no one is already on the toilet!”. The student gets up immediately and walks to the door and before they had the chance of opening the door. She screams “what are you doing?!!??” They respond “I want to go to the toilet.” And she screams “don’t you know that you have to ask!???”. We were very confused.
I am seriously concerned that in your mind, without payment she would have to ask for permission.
In my personal situation, my gf is staying with me regularly for a while (LDR atm). When she stays here she doesn’t have to pay for anything. (She wants to pay for some food) The only thing, I have requested in that situation, is that she tells me when she brings a friend to our place and that preferably I would like to know the friend before they appear in my private space. In other words, I just don’t want to open the door and see an unexpected stranger sitting on my couch. Please note, I asked her to respect that. I asked.
Really not an expert but if you lock up civilians who admittedly not taking part in any fighting, for up to 4 months in an armed conflict and releasing them in a trade, doesn’t that conflict the Geneva convention part 1, article 3?
Seriously, am I wrong here?
It depends on a lot of things.
Mainly what does one mean with racism? If they mean exclusively systematical racism, then it is much more difficult, if not impossible, to be the victim of racism in e.g. the US as a “white” person. Like apparently 75% of the population in the US is “white”, how and why would 75% of the system, so effectively a controlling majority, turn the system against them? It seems at least unlikely.
But as always, us defaultism or western defaultism in the English speaking world runs strong, and it gets completely ignored that there are probably some “white” people born and living in e.g. Japan. I am “white” and I lived in other parts of the world and met my (hopefully) future-wife there. There is systematical racism against “white” people out there.
Now if you mean racism as discrimination by race, obviously it exists and I have experienced it. By a scream, I was angrily called a slur for standing in a park, about to sit down on a bench, by a person outside of the park on the walkway running past the park. I know they meant me as the slur means only that one thing, and there was literally no other “white” person there. Local friends confirmed that I heard it correctly and that there was no one else around. “White” people are so rare there that I would be stared at anywhere I would go, causing me to seek out private spots. Tbh i believe that place has systematical racism against a bunch of ethnicities, including “white” people. But I still think that moment is a good example for unprompted unmistakable racism.
Well, i don’t think you can judge a group based on their characteristics, if the group is an ethnicity. What are characteristics that e.g. all white people share, which you can judge them for? Obviously none. Just like any and all “forced into” groups.
I am sorry but it seems you misunderstood my take.
If the German public knew, Nazis knew.
You can choose what you want to call a Nazi. Idc for the sake of my argument. But you can’t claim that you can’t judge Nazis for their support for Nazi shit because they didn’t know. They knew.
I don’t want to bother if you are the person I previously responded to. If you aren’t, then I am not saying, you claimed anything. If you are, read above.
The citizens in nazi Germany was very much aware of the anti-semitism and the violent nature of the nazi party.
If you want to claim that they didn’t know of the systemical murder of e.g. Jewish. Based on my understanding, you are wrong. But even if you want to ignore that, they knew of the violence against Jewish and enabled it.
Kristall Nacht (btw)
This shit was public
My critic to what the other guy said, is that you can judge a group of that group is specific enough to judge them on these characteristics.
Are all christians bad? Hell no. Active adult members of the Westboro Baptist Church? Hell yes. They are bad because their website is literally godhatesfags.com.
Now Nazis are fucking Nazis. 11 millions murders should be enough to judge them as a group and those who liked it.
How does something afterwards change the meaning of this in a good way?
Why fight for justice? E.g. the bible says god will judge and that i shouldn’t. So if I just don’t care about anything here but about god, I might have a bad time now but eternal happiness later. How meaningless is now this here? Everything is transactional. The love that you gave is for the sake of getting some much much more valuable later.
Why do people find happiness even in the worst situations? Because it is the only way to deal with it. We are made for survival and survival requires the willingness to survive. It doesn’t matter if you are the strongest fighter, if you don’t even want to fight back. Your desires come from survival needs.
And a little extra bit, there might not be a point in living. It might be meaning less. But I personally want to be happy. I just do. So everyday I work towards being happy. As I personally love my family and friends, I wish them to be happy. I just do. As my friends have family and friends, and their happiness is somewhat linked to their family and friends happiness, I want all of them to be happy too. And so on. As I can relate to the joy of being proud of oneself, I want them to feel that joy. And so on. None of this is objectively meaningful, I just like it that way. And I might be an asshole but I don’t care if you agree with me, I want you feeling happy and fulfilled. Deal with it.
I don’t disagree with anything you said.
I describe what I believe to be the reason why there is any attention on it. There are many many ways for hate mobs to express their hatred. So my focus was on why is there their attention.
I mean their hatred is expressed in many ways but e.g. they seem quite focused on e.g. POC in movies (especially Disney movies).
There is always survival times. Sure, some are worse than others, but there are always survival times.
This is more about the personal journey. E.g. in a system that oppresses you, hiding might be easier and less taxing than fighting it, so if you learned to hide to survive, but your goal might be to become someone who has the strength to fight that system to change it. Someone that you like as you “finally” work towards getting to a place where you can thrive.
Congratulations on getting so far! Please stick around and thrive!
As also a man, I don’t know any person in real life that complain about women in movies.
I only see it online in spaces that I avoid because those places are generally speaking transphobic misogynistic echo chambers. I would argue those places are also misandristic, by creating a place were you have to follow the doctrine, but it is very different to the active hatred towards women.
So I think the answer is “insecure hateful men will hate on anything that they were told is their enemy.”
I have explored misandristic spaces online as well. And unsurprisingly, you see the same general behavior. So I really think generally it is true that:
People like to have an enemy and they like to be told who is that enemy and then they mindlessly hate even to their disadvantage and beyond. Once the social cost has to be paid, they feel validated and jump deeper into the abyss.
And where is that hatred coming from? Gamer gate, which made feminist hating popular, which made hating “the left” popular, which made anything anti-“woke” popular. As the source is based in a profession focussed on maximizing engagement, the need to generate “new” “shocking” Events was big. Therefore any gay character was a scandal and obviously with the questionable attempt to seem humane of e.g. Disney, aka adding diversity, these “new” “shocking” events were any kind of diversity. (Sidenote: diversity yay!!! Corporate diversity program just tend to be rather questionable) As the degenerate hate mob had its target to mindlessly hate, they looked for any excuse to hate anything “woke”™©® and “strong female characters” have to had been a feminist propaganda Tool and not a normal character type in movies for at least a couple decades, so they mindlessly hate that now. I would love to say “as they do anything for a treat of their master” but there is no treat, there is just the self-induced pain of hatred.
And why gamer gate? I guess right-wing Propaganda worked on a group of people who were still afraid/annoyed to be the ones to blame for e.g. violence. remember the whole “video games make you a school shooter” nonsense?
My point wasn’t that wait staff is paid better than 2.15. my point is, they are getting robbed.
$2.13 is true and wrong.
The minimum wage plus tips is $7.25.
In other words, if you tip someone under federal law, and that person works 40 hours per week, after 1 week, 40*5 = $200 were stolen from your tips by the employer from employee. As if the person earned $0 in tips, the $200 would have to be covered by the employer.
And it is “too hard” because they don’t have the fund to do it. Which is because budget cuts…
