Always eerie how the llm outputs are literally indistinguishable from his usual rambling!

Hey! I resent being called Lawful Good! In a society where some laws are just and other laws are not, Neutral Good is the only real good!

a new curriculum “that is rigorous and largely politically neutral

Those are mutually exclusive. When one side of the political divide wants to rewrite history to make it seem like white people in the past were blameless, no rigorous curriculum can be anywhere near politically neutral.

I just wrote "your mom" on that one, hoping the examiner had a sense of humor 🤷

So in other words, he can do what is needed to fire DeJoy, but has chosen not to.

Exactly.

Biden is in a position to replace him. He won't.

Preaching to the choir, my man. I wasn't disagreeing so much as correcting a detail of your otherwise accurate take 🙂

You're talking about Russia right?

Yeah, I'm talking about the US helping Russia 🙄 Pack away the whataboutisms, please.

That's usually their thing

Also the thing of Israel in Palestine and Saudi Arabia in Yemen, both of which the US are providing cover and material aid for.

there are no clean hands when it comes to history and geopolitics

There are some much bloodier than others, though. Other countries sometimes doing bad things doesn't excuse anything, least of all crimes against humanity and the facilitation thereof.

everyone has a history of slaughter at some point

First of all, that's not true. Second of all, only a few countries have a PRESENT of genocide and other crimes against humanity.

doesn't mean we should excuse it

First sensible thing you've said.

but we should exercise critical thinking to understand the nuances in the contextual differences.

Aaand there you go excusing it. Again. 🤦

Social media, it brings us together, for better or worse.

Wtf does that have to do with anything??

Actually, Biden can't directly appoint a new Postmaster General. He CAN, however, replace some of the board members that have that ability, though, which he has absolutely no valid reason not to do.

"You can keep doing it as long as you let us know in advance and come at this time" is a very odd reaction to rampant human trafficking across state lines..

How many others just like him have similar influence in other policy areas?

Frustratingly and terrifyingly many, I bet.

Also, there's the whole "enabling at least two seperate genocides by making up excuses for, providing weapons for and bankrolling some of the world's worst war criminals" aspect.

Fewer and fewer people are ignoring that tiny detail.
