I am not trying to create a conspiracy theory here, but how difficult would it be to 1) sabotage an EV like Tesla to behave this way, and 2) for that sabotage to not be detected via monitoring how the vehicle does, and 3) could it or would

How can we know who sent it though? You can't state the truth as one way or another, at least not yet.

Sorry, I looked through a lot of articles and I don't recall which one it was; they're reported to be both in the Bahamas and Hong Kong, the Bahamas authorities also having said a claim that SBF made about them directing him to do

And quite interesting that most of the FTX team/founders are reported to now be in Hong Kong - arguably knowing they have the protection of China?

Is there truth to the U.S. sending money to Ukraine -> Ukraine funding FTX -> FTX being 2nd largest donor to Democratic party in the U.S.? Timeline: - April 25, 2019: Biden announces his presidential campaign. - 13 days later, Sam Ban

Fake nice is ugly. P.S. I'm not cynical, perhaps you meant to say skeptical; if it truly was only $40 billion per year then every country in the world would quickly pay their share to fund that.

So we just have to stop the military industrial complex and problem solved! Likewise, it's a good thing Elon is attempting to disrupt the attack on free speech.

It's the fastest way to purposefully destroy whatever culture has formed (arguably poorly if the company is in its present state), and then can quickly rehire based on new, arguably better, direction; risky bet IMHO to bet against Elon

I suppose so long as whomever is control of the space superiority, and it's used only as a suppression system - similar to the Iron Dome providing a fairly effective wall to protest Israel, then it doesn't matter if someone gets a

Isn't the issue here that you're putting such a weight or strong conviction on Elon as any promises he makes are gospel, the problem is you're putting him on a pedestal and under unreasonable expectations? And I'm famili

So the #2 problem is that you're not getting paid. And the #1 problem is actually much worse since "you" aren't paid - in that there is a strong likelihood that "you": 1) are a paid shill to suppress specific c
