    If you want to know who really is in charge, just look at who you’re not allowed to criticize.

        Interesting fact, thanks.

        As they say though, even a broken clock can be right twice a day

        Use of a phrase doesn’t automatically imply agreement with its originator.

            Sure. But context matters. I doubt everyone would have gotten too riled up if he was hailing a cab instead of showing alignment with neofascist ideals.

            If it doesn’t 100% look like a Heil, and isn’t repeated twice, after buying one’s way into influence over a blatantly xenophobic candidate with a record of racism, sure.

            For the phrase, “broken” specifically means “stopped”, and the clock is analog. If the hands don’t turn, then they will be correct twice per day.

              Thanks makes more sense! Idk why the downvotes… Because in the case of an offset it would always be wrong and in the case of a speed change.

              In the general case, with clock speed a and offset b:

              • a x + b ≡ x (mod 12)
              • a x + b = x + 12k

              If a=1, normal speed with offset,

              • b = 12k ≡ 0 (mod 12)

              So it works for any multiple of 12h offset (ie no offset)

              If a≠1,

              • x = (12k - b)/(a-1)

              It isn’t always in a day, so you can end up having to wait multiple days for it to be right

        I mean, the phrase was made because they’re pussies who can’t handle criticism of their speech. In this use the “not able to crtisize” is literally having your ability to speak shut down.

      Have you donated 7+ figures to Donnie? Maybe sprinkle in some leveraging the social media platform you own to help spread propaganda? How concerned are you with the cost of eggs?

      Well he’s both the richest man on earth and prime minister-ish of the home country of these platforms.

      I agree he doesn’t say a lot of meaningful things but it would be a mistake to think he doesn’t have power.

    Yeah, spreading hate, fake news and tearing down a government is fine, discussing who is behind this is against their policy due to “doxing and supporting violence”.

    Yeah but you really can’t dox people even if it seems like the moral thing to do. It wasn’t any decision made outside the company, it was made by reddit because it was walking a fine line with their policies.

    I’m going entirely off theory but there is a likely chance the people who got hired to be a minion had no idea the parameters of the job. I’ve gone thru the government job listings and they will tell you only so much about the position. What is required to qualify for the job, what tasks will be done in the job but beyond that, they aren’t going to tell you what the grand scheme of the position is. So to me, if any of that is true, then they are trying to post the identities of people who may be appalled by what their job is but don’t have the means to step down without having other income already lined up.

    I’m not saying anything about what musk is doing is right. I’m just saying, there should be action taken to prevent the identities of people being posted on the internet for all to see.

    Dont forget, reddit has literally falsely identifyied an innocent man who committed suicide as being the Boston bomber. Creating an absolute hell for the grieving family who thought their son was missing only to find out he committed suicide before the boston bombing happened. They only found out from the reddit manhunt to dox an innocent person.

      I was under the impression it was six people that were DOGE henchmen. They absolutely knew what the job was so I don’t know what you’re on about. Their names should absolutely be public knowledge.
