I absolutely love how congress is so cringe on these things I’ll find myself accidentally rooting for a CEO.

Yea I think they were talking to Zuckerberg at some point and I tuned in and some chid was just yelling over and over again “yes or no will you personally compensate everybody who lost somebody because of your site”

And I was rooting for zuck to tell them “no fuck off are you stupid”

Same thing with them repeatedly asking “do you agree the internet is a dangerous place for children” and if he started a response with anything other than yes they’d just yell over him. They asked him why he wouldn’t answer the question directly and he was like “I’m not going to say on congressional record that the internet is dangerous for all children because you’re going to try to use that to justify banning children from the internet”

How are politicians so dogshit it makes the literal bad guys of society seem repeatable and reasonable

Well bourgeois politicians are also the bad guys of society. So it’s just bad guy infighting.

We need to purge anyone born before 1990 from that place. Cold war is the only thing they can do.

Why did he even show up? They have no standing in Singapore to compel him to even show up. He could have just made tiktok videos mocking them and there wouldn’t be anything they could do about it.

Because that’s his job as CEO, being the lighting post from that kind of thing.

Probably profitable, and a bit of an ego stroke since the congressmen keep making themselves look like clowns in front of him
