  • I agree that pureexpression is a horrible idea in combination with the internet. You can’t allow people to just rile up eachother with misinformation and become terrorists over issues that don’t exist. Be it Jewish space lasers, Mexican rapist immigrants or dumb conspiracy theories like vaccines causing autism.

    Especially if you have a following, or echo chambers, content just has to be stopped.

    Humanity is not ready for full free flow of information, not as long as dumb idiots believe anything they reas




  • Break neck is the right word here.

    SpaceX so far hasn’t been able to get beyond low earth orbit. The amount of unneeded exploded rockets us insane and they cheer, every time. When a new crew of astronauts blow up and die, the last they’ll hear is people applauding and cheering. It’s disgusting.

    So musk claimed to get us on Mars in 2016 and today, 9 years later we have barely 1% of that goal met. Who do you believe any of the Elon lies?





  • What you describe sounds more like paranoia which can happen if you “overdose” on THC. Basically you took a gummy too many. Been there more then once. All of the sudden you feel this super unease and you’re just hyped that there is bad. you don’t know what, but the feeling is bad.

    Best thing to do is being with someone, keep talking, keep walking, preferably outside. Jeep your mind occupied, away from that feeling.

    Another thing that works for me is a fast acting CBD gummies, I got a bad in the fridge just in case. I’ve had people tell me they work awesome, I’ve had people tell me it would make things worse. Personally, I’ve used them in moments lime that and I don’t know if it’s placebo effect or not, but it helps within minutes. The heart racing stops, I feel myself calm down.




  • Nah, he is just a scammer with a lot of luck.

    Je was fired for incompetence, for one.

    However, if you start looking in what he has promised and what he really has done, a new pattern emerges: it’s all bullshit. He continuously makes fantastic claims that will be ready by tomorrow. It’ll all be done by tomorrow, really!

    Tesla’s full self driving, is already here, claimed for 10 years and still isn’t even close. Tesla hasn’t made any new models in the past 10 years begpnd the cyber truck which is a horrendous laughably stupid thing, yet Tesla is still valued more than any other car company that make 10-100 times the amounts of cars that Tesla does.

    SpaceX? We’ll be on Mars in 2020, 2021, 2022, etc… SpaceX still can’t get itself beyond low earth orbit and only managed to explode a banana over the Indian ocean. They’re literally 1% done of what they got billions of tax payer funding from. Meanwhile they cheer every time a rocket blows up because…fun? Ohh, how about the tickets sending people to the other side of the world in 39 minutes? Of course any high schooler could tell you 20 reasons why that’s bullshit but Elon fans lap it up.

    Boring company? Would make tunnels 100 times cheaper than others, really, truly! Of course anyone can do that too if you don’t put in rails, emergency exits, space to escape in case of emergency, stations, etc.

    Okay, how about star link? You know, those thousands of satellites that do the job of single satellites, and totally won’t cause the Kessler syndrome? Yeah, use thousands of satellites in orbits so low that you’ll have to replace them every 5 years costing billions. What does it get you? A slightly lower ping. This seems the most actual successful project to date that comes from him and it’s still a shit show

    Hyperloop? The absolute bullshit show what got tens of Billions of investment and went nowhere ever because the idea is fundamentally flawed? Even universities jumped in because reasons, it stopped high speed rail development in the US because this would be so much better, and yeah… China has tens of thousands of kilometres of high speed rail now, and the US has… Nothing.

    The robots? The spandex guy, FFS… Any “real” demo of his robots has been 20 years behind on Boston dynamics and even then they had to fake most of if with humans controlling those sad machines

    Did I forget anything? Ooohh yeah, the solar roofs, where he cheated too. Lots of court cases about that one

    Elon Musk is a scammer, that’s it

    Military service exists for a reason though, and a good one. I disagree with it but I understand its need all too much.

    This, however is just the new extremist and inept government making decisions that break things, so to fill those holes they’ll just break other things.

    It won’t last
