Yeah this billionaire techbro of future dystopia is so bullied. His sister would know.

What if we didn’t forge a relevant equivalence for every criticism in order to negate it?

I believe she's telling the truth. Why not mention that instead?

I guess I think bullying one person based on looks makes it easier to bully another second person based on looks, even if the first person is a jerk. It just makes a culture in which that's acceptable.

It’s more a commentary on photo editors, really. Honestly just like they’re going to run a picture of Taylor Swift for the Ticketmaster story, they’re going to find (easily, apparently) a goofy picture of OpenAIguy to run next to his stories.

I’m not bullying anyone, least of all this billionare crypto pinhead. I’m being mean, yes but if that’s your beef then I dunno what to tell ya. There are some people it’s okay to be mean to in public forums where they’re not present. (Are you Sam? Hey if so, you suck, otherwise please disregard, I’m sure you(not-Sam) are quite nice.)

there’s also the part where all too often stans go “waaaaaah you can’t be mean [to my hero] just about a photo, that’s not fair!!” and it’s generally not good to let that shit slide either

I wonder if the esteemed poster would say the same thing about all the coverage of musk’s bumbling fuckery that also use photos which show him at all the times he didn’t have the situation pre-cultivated to capitalize on it and send a lying image

Also that person created their account 14 hours ago and has been posting continuously, like where do they find the time to do stuff like this? EDIT: It's also hilarious that they responded to someone actually being demeaned for their appearance like half an hour before coming here. That totally makes you the good guy standing up for these injustices.

Someone I know died, so I've been off of work and literally doing nothing. Any more questions about me asshole?

Also, found the bullying asshole that wants to justify being a pos!

No, I am not Sam.

You are commenting on how he looks to be mean. That's bullying.

I know it's hard for you to get, but it makes it more socially acceptable for someone else to bully someone who might look a bit nerdy, perhaps a young computer nerd who you would.find morally pure. I doubt Sam woukd care or reads lemmy, but it creates a climate in which this is socially acceptable.

It’s hard for you to get that Sam is a public figure. Your tone policing is well-meant but you have no jurisdiction here.
