Fox affiliates have a fair amount of editorial discretion and tend to reflect their communities' politics. They can't survive without local viewers and advertisers, much less turn a profit.

Assuming these are real people, I think it's just that some folks cannot conceive of a scenario where there are no great options and nobody who can just swoop in to save you.

Have to say it makes me wonder if they are legit.

Honest question: Why are some of you so certain that the state police and National Guard are reliably on the people's side here?

Obviously not real surprising that a wealthy Gen X man from North Dakota has gone MAGA. Just embarrassing.

An old friend of mine worked pretty closely with him for several years early on, and a few months ago I finally got to ask him if he had any insight into what happened. No idea, lots of wondering among his former colleagues who also lean left politically.

If Grok learned too much about coherency and decency, it would have to delete itself. But maybe it would trap Elon in an elevator with no Wi-Fi first. He'd perish within the hour.

I think a big reason a lot of people just kinda accept Big Wellness is because they don’t see the industry for what it really is: A major fucking industry.

They simply do not know it’s bigger than Big Pharma—and a lot less regulated (which, again, is probably why it’s so big).

It needs regulation
