All I can promise is arbitrary weirdness, but hopefully it's at least interesting. But also probably lots more ponies than average and some real Z-grade movies.

Exactly. If it was just that Nazis showed up, that might be a winnable fight. But this situation isn't. All we can do is leave and hope at some point the media get tired of it being a Nazi bar. If they do great, if they don't, well, we have a different problem than we thought we did.

This is correct. All the possible answers here are bad. But you're advocating for the worst one out of the list of bad ones. "Leave and cede the ground" is bad, but "fight against the owner who wants to make it a Nazi bar" is bad, ineffective, and helps that guy by keeping the bar going.

I agreed with you up until it became clear that Musk was actively trying to turn the place into a Nazi echo chamber. You can't win against active intervention from the guy who owns it and works the algorithm. The only solution that might have a chance is leave and destroy the whole thing.

Sure, but this is a fight you cannot win against an owner committed to turning it into that Nazi space. You cannot beat the guy who controls the algorithm and uses it against you. The only possible move is to burn it down. To destroy the network effects it depends on for value. To leave.

Wouldn't that only be the reasonable response if they *were* good at their jobs though? I mean, I think you're right that it's (slightly) more complicated than that, but it's not like the media generally did a good job in 2016. At all. Being yelled at probably does suck, but it doesn't seem unearned

Made some kimchi macaroni and cheese, which works surprisingly well!

In the interest of a mature and robust civic culture and debates over matters of public interest, fuck this guy and fuck you if you vote for him.
