- teaearlgraycold 2y agoCrazy idea: work for DOGE but secretly just do whatever the most educated (and compassionate) people on the topic say to do. Don’t let Elon know you’re poisoning his well with good ideas.
- lazyasciiart 2y agoI have serious doubts that this guy would identify anyone I consider "the most educated or compassionate" for any topic, though.
- ETH_start 2y agoA lot of people consider Elon to be highly compassionate (in the balanced sense of taking into consideration second-order effects) and educated (in the non-credentialled sense of being informed). So comments like your are little more than flamebait.
- entropicdrifter 2y ago>A lot of people consider Elon to be highly compassionate (in the balanced sense of taking into consideration second-order effects) I suppose if you're into redefining the common meaning of the word, anyone could be considered highly compassionate.
- ETH_start 2y agoHis actions could reasonably be characterized as motivated for deep care for others, and that includes not just his work on popularizing electric cars and giving humanity better internet connectivity via StarLink, but also his political activism. Of course of all of this is subjective, which is all the more reason to not pretend your view of compassion is the objective irrefutable truth.
- entropicdrifter 2y agoMy "view of compassion" is the literal definition of the word, yours is deciding that a robber baron with sufficiently sci-fi justifications for union-busting is somehow a compassionate person.
- ETH_start 2y agoThe entire premise of your position is that 1. Successful entrepreneurs are exploiting people, i.e. are robber barons, and 2. being for union-enforced labor relations is compassion, both of which are highly contentious claims that are in no way linked to the conventional definition of "compassion". You're trying to gaslight people with this nonsense, which is typical.
