That was part of the joke, yes.

Shitty little coward. If they ever meet, he and Trump will have something to talk about.

Yay. Airborne nukes. I’m sure that’ll calm everyone down.

Its like the Cuban missile crisis except with no weapons involved, and the most idiotic president in US history. Since I don’t think it’ll trigger WWIII, I’m actually kinda curious to see how this will play out.

Yes. What was the point of him putting his phone on silent? What was the reasoning behind that?

Charming fellow

My hope is that he will feel tremendous guilt for the rest of his life, and that his rationalizations might fool others, but never him.

Outstanding story

Very punchable face. I want to yank those earrings out with pliers, too.

“Our product doesn’t kill enough people. How can we raise the body count?”

Just the fact that he’s doing it makes him a massive piece of shit. I don’t care about the “why”.

Edit: this is a good, detailed story. Please don’t let me dissuade you from reading it.

“We have the concept of a deal.”

I can’t believe he actually said it. I was going to post that phrase exactly just to make fun of his “concept of a plan” statement. This man is such a pathetic joke.

Sadly true

“Obviously, Grok does not spontaneously generate images, it does so only according to user requests,” Musk said.

“Guns don’t kill. People do.”

To me, actual real-world consequences matter more than my own poor wording.

If ICE is deporting migrant families with a valid visa, is the U.S. then “inflexible”?

Yes. If anything, “inflexible” is a charitable description. My government is breaking its own laws.

Is it then a migrant father’s ‘reckless choice’ to have entered the country with his children? (To be safe: The answer is, no, it is the U.S. state that is reckless.)

It’s possible for multiple parties to be wrong at the same time.

If the father entered the US before Trump’s presidency, then no, it wasn’t reckless at all. If the father entered the country after Trump became president, then yes, he was reckless. Trump’s loudly and frequently stated goal has been to reduce the number of immigrants in the US, and a responsible father would have been aware of that. Basic research on a country you’re moving your family to isn’t too much to ask.

That does not, in any way, shield the government from responsibility. They created this illegal, inhumane mess.

The most weird point with your comment is that you even offend the victim calling him a “dipshit” and a “zealot.”

He put ideology before the safety of his child. To me, that’s not something that can be overlooked. I stand by my words.

In this situation, there are multiple bad guys with complex motivations. The more accurately and harshly one describes the CCPs crimes against humanity, the less comprehensible and sympathetic the parents become.

When someone becomes a parent, their child is supposed to be their first priority. Instead, these parents chose to put their child in danger over nothing but a collection of legends. They did this for six years, despite knowing about the unjust, ruthless authoritarianism of the CCP. I’m not trying to downplay the cruelty of the CCP. I’m just angry, and mostly concerned with the child. Will this be on his record forever? Will he ever be allowed to live a normal life in China?

I’d feel worse if this was a native, “home grown” religion. Since Christianity in China was imported by Europeans, though, I feel like this is a foreseeable result of the husband’s irresponsible behavior. He should have grown up and put away his fantasies of an invisible sky wizard, especially when he became a father. YOUR CHILD COMES FIRST, DIPSHIT. How much of a zealot must this guy be?

Of course, the ultimate problem is the CCPs inflexibility. The kid had zero say in the situation, though, and it’s not like the CCP sprang into existence last week. His parents were supposed to look out for him, but consciously made an irrational, reckless choice instead.

CNN is an American news company. I assume they added “western Germany” because most Americans don’t know where Aachen is.
