    The problem is: The letter of the law means nothing to them. Consequences vanished the moment they stacked the supreme court because asking a Republican Congress to hold a Republican candidate accountable would be like asking Exxon Mobile to police itself.

    That’s why midterms are VERY important.

    I’m not at the “fight for rights of corporations” stage yet. First all the people, then maybe companies that don’t ignore copyright for a buck.

    I have a really hard time feeling bad for some AI bullshit company, so I won’t. Fuck 'em.

    People want to back them up because they opposed the US government and that’s a great reason. Everyone should oppose a fascist government that’s just the most default stance anyone could take. But everyone conveniently forgets they are an AI focused company who signed a contract with the fascist US government willingly. So they are still 2 parts of the problem and deserve no praise or support.

      Don’t support the company. But do fight against a government who’s hell bent on taking away your rights and they’ll do it taking the rights of people or things you don’t care about first. If you give them any leeway, they’ll take it all.
