Yeah, this basically: it just makes me immediately smell a copout where they can reap the benefits of the Star Trek brand and mine it for the odd fan-pleasing tidbit, but not actually do anything interesting with those narrative decisions

I simply cannot pick just one so I’ll copout pick a few: Brute Bomber, Tyrant, Howling Blade, and Sugar Riot were all my favorites.

Musk’s X to block Grok AI tool from creating sexualized images of real people
Amid global backlash, billionaire had only hours earlier said he was not aware of any ‘naked underage images’
Elon Musk’s xAI has announced it will block the ability of its Grok AI tool to alter images of real people to put them in “revealing clothing such as bikinis”, amid a global backlash over the tool being used to generate explicit imagery.

"In jurisdictions where it is illegal" seems to be a key phrase here - and a total copout. Why not block Grok nudification everywhere? www.bbc.com/news/article...

It may seem like a copout, and I'm sure some out there may feel indignation, but I'm not ready to share my space at the moment. Right now, I just want to heal, and my alone time is sacred. I want to protect it at all cost. I'll come out when I'm ready.

It's a weird place to be in when you want to use your voice but you know you aren't going to be saying anything new, anything that will add to the conversation that hasn't already been expressed. I always say reposting/sharing info is the bare minimum and it is--but sometimes it feels like a copout.

The one-time billionaire tax you are opposed to and going to stop makes you a copout.
These billionaires spend more money on their favorite political candidates to get them elected.
They run the country, not the ppl of the senate or house, they're just puppets.
$ rules the world.
President, nope!

A copout answer. “Well, we always have the president” doesn’t address that this is not a normal or even legal presidency at this point. Just because Congress and SCOTUS are complicit doesn’t mean other organizations have to be just because of the excuse of “tradition”.

All I’ll say is, you’re reinforcing my complaint about the United States and it’s narrow minded foreign policy. Dropping bombs from a distance is the lazy unimaginative copout play we always run to. But yourself. You see cup half empty I see the perfect opportunity that can’t be squandered.

This "whole' many Blacks is such a copout.
Considering the fact that, after the Civil Rights Act and the Voting Rights Act, White America decided that supremacy was more important than the "melting pot" ideology.
They were scared of becoming the minority.

people say viktor should have crashed out and i totally can see why considering his original league lore and that him becoming an "unfeeling" zombie s2 was a total copout for any repercussions on piltover's council, but i think JAYCE should have CRASHED the FUCK OUT on them for real

That’s the dumbest and lamest copout ever, especially from a member of Congress who tells you that your vote matters. Walk and talk your values @repilhan.bsky.social

Neither outcome is inevitable, history isn’t a closed system, and all language is polyvalent. The contingent historical Q is: which publics are hearing what, and according to which already-circulating rhetorics, incentive structures, etc. are they hearing it?

To many American it just reads like an easy copout answer. To just blame it on Russia doesn’t paint the whole picture even if true. You can be right on the money about election interference, but we know that it was mostly propaganda that Russia spearheaded. Fact is, right wing Americans fell for it
I remember so many cynical internet leftists rolling their eyes at the very idea that Russia had any sort of influence over US elections. And of course also saying that fundamentally it doesn't matter who wins elections in the US because both parties are just about equally as bad and pro-genocide.

See, I think this is the most likely motive, but one way to avoid it feeling like a potential copout (as it seems to be the worry I see here) is that Angel didn't *have* to resort to murder, especially if Henroin wasn't an immediate threat.

This is, no doubt, what Russia wants, but we can't ignore the willingness of the Republican Party to participate in the destruction.
It's simply not true that Americans don't have agency here. That's a copout. Even small countries like Estonia exercise theirs. Estonia wouldn't allow this.
