At no point did my plans involve setting foot on US soil. Too many three letter agencies for my liking.

    Fair. However, there's a lot of runway before that really gets problematic. You can move things offshore prior to 2000 and be perfectly fine.

    Funny seeing you here, surprised you didn’t say you’d go back to when we were enslaving and committing genocide on native Americans and capturing and torturing people in Africa.

    Fun fact: you can talk about things that happened without endorsing or condoning the things that happened.

    You'll notice that I didn't say anything about genocide or the slave trade being good.

    Edit:ah yes, you're the very stable genius that told me to "go die" recently. Very classy.

    Like, do you need to talk to someone? You don't seem OK.

    Sure, that’s a great explanation as to why you used slavery as an example to justify shackling and limiting sentient A.I. and called it great.

    Maybe don’t use condoning language if you’re not condoning something, cause that shit was racist as fuck, no matter how you try to contextualize it.

    Look, I'm sorry that you're still not understanding that taking about terrible things that humans in power did, and still do, to exploit other humans, doesn't mean I'm saying that's good.

    It seems like you might be misunderstanding mid-sentence sarcasm as... being a fan of genocide and slavery? WTF is wrong with you? Read the room. Read with context. It's an explanation that companies that exploit people will seamlessly transition to exploiting AGI.

    I can't tell if you're genuinely stupid or just trying to be the worst internet troll. Either way, you're really behaving quite inappropriately, sound like a fool, and are not good enough at understanding English to use your misunderstanding as a reason to cyberstalk and bully someone.

    You might need to learn the definition of that word before you try using it. And I don't mean "very."
