They take your kids away from you now if they hear you beat them.

It's fair to say that Clinton wasn't a good role model and broke his oath to his wife (so long as they weren't in an open relationship, which I doubt they were).

Concerning the age difference: I think this is where we have a disagreement. Even if the brain is still developing at 22, a 22 year old is an adult. If you make a bad decision as an adult, I don't think the excuse that your brain is still developing holds. Monica isn't being judged for a crime (at least as far as DC law goes), but she's being socially judged for being with a married man sexually, which we know is wrong in our culture.

You've made some pretty good points about how disproportionate the response has been. I agree that the proportion was definitely unfair.

It went from being a hoax written by the Clintons and Obama, to it not being a hoax and Trump actually being an informant that brought everything down? ffs how many kids did this guy touch?

I think it's alright to hold both of them accountable for infidelity in a social sense. Clinton being the more responsible as the man in the marriage, but Monica knew he was married. I can't see a moral argument to not hold her accountable for this as well (again, socially, not legally). They were both adults. I don't think the age difference or power dynamic lets either of them off of the hook, even though it would make the then-President comparatively more in the wrong.

I think it's more alright to have punished Clinton for lying (under oath, right?). Even if I don't think it made sense to ask him about sexual relations, he still lied about it. I don't think there's any legal issue with what Monica did.

I'm glad she's speaking up against bullying nowadays.

I didn't follow each update on this situation while it was going on, so if you think I missed an important point that would change my mind, I'm open to considering it.

They're not paying their workers, either, and they have large targets for offshoring a percentage of their workforces.

Last I checked years ago, they sold their carbon credits for a whole lot of money whenever they earned them.

Crunchyroll really messed up their subs with AI. Not sure if they mean LLMs and are just calling it AI but still:

Kept wondering why subtitles were so obviously off when I was watching some stuff. It was horrid.

I think I get the gist of this.

They're part of the Old Testament, which pulls from Jewish scripture, but it's all Abrahamic to me. They should post the Beatitudes if they really want to keep things Christian-specific, but they won't. Why? Just read them (and the corresponding Woes in Luke) and you'll see. The Wikipedia article should be enough: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Beatitudes

AI can scrape books and journals for info, but can't scrape Reddit?
