  • The context is not that complicated. But im not the one who thinks serving and controlling are the same thing. You can be controlled and serve at the same time. But that doesn’t make them the same thing. Not even in context, especially not in context.

    The fact you can’t even discern between the two while trying to make a point is dissapointing.




  • No. You can serve without being controlled. And you can be controlled without serving.

    The waitress is serving me but they’re not being controlled. It’s something they choose to do.

    And you can be controlled in what you say and so, without serving. E.g. a prisoner.

    So no. They’re not the same.

    But the data is sent to China for them to analyze and create models of citizen movement, influencing forgein citizens by deciding what content they see.

    Yes. A government is ok with tracking their own citizens. But don’t want other governments to track their citizens.

    Yes. But the US can control US based companies, and create laws regarding how that data is used. They can’t control a chineese one.

    Do you understand how the US government might think it’s a problem that foreign countries get access to every step their citizens take?

    You think the problem with tiktok was that it was simply made in China?

    Not the fact that it collected vast amount of data from everyone?

    And here’s a friendly reminder that Lenovo has had their very fair share of problems regarding security and data collection too.


  • “In your version, the drone operator seems to have infinite ammo and gleeful fire-at-will orders. Killing anyone who is “just walking down the street.” Maybe the soldiers on the ground operate that way, but not drones or jets.”

    Where are you getting this story from? I sure as hell didn’t even come close to mention or talk about anything of the sort.

    And regarding your statement

    “Intelligence has to prove that these people, or some of them, are Hamas, likely of some significance, maybe not. Then they have to be identified, monitored, and tracked for a strike opportunity. Then, when the entire chain of command is in agreement that that’s their guy and this is the best time, they attack.”

    Do you have any source for that being the way they operate at every single strike. Any source that this is how it went down from what we saw? Or are you just guessing?

    My money is on the later.
