Those numbers always crack me up. If you do the math that way (US funding cuts kill people), imagine how many people we’ve killed by not confiscating all the wealth of our nation and shipping it to Africa!
Even if we agree with the premise that cutting funds to save people is the same as killing people (I do not believe this), those don't include how many deaths were reduced by cutting USAID. The funds wound up fueling awful things around the globe.
Once you factor in everything, the cuts are a huge net gain in my estimation.
I know that this is a tall order, but consider that this might not actually be “objective”, and that instead, you’re substituting your opinion for facts.
(You don’t need to enumerate all of the things you believe justify the statement. I’m well familiar with them. I’m just trying to make you understand that there’s a layer of subjectivity here.)
No he doesn't. There's a lot of bullshit surrounding him. Things are taken out of context.
I will say this, he believes in things about race that are controversial. For example that races may have different IQs. But you have to realize we don't actually know if races have different IQs. The idea fits common sense though... if races can LOOK different... what black magic suddenly makes them completely equal in intelligence when the same genes that govern looks also govern intelligence? We don't have hard evidence on this so right now the best we can say is we don't know but measured evidence and common sense points to the possibility of intellectual differences.
This, in itself, is not actually racist.
He does believe individual meritocracy so meaning even though he believes race correlates with certain stereotypes (like intelligence) he feels that people on the intellectual level need to be judged by merit and not by race.
I wouldn't trust any numbers that came out of USAID. Mr Beast drilled hundreds of wells, built hundreds of houses for mere few million in Africa. If USAID really did sent 130 Billion in the last 20 years then there literally would be unlimited houses and unlimited wells already completed. Yet to my knowledge only a few solar wells, no houses have been built by USAID.
Mr. Beast? LMAO. A ridiculous comparison in terms of development project implementation.
(And I am no fan of USAID, whose real chief mission was creating dependency on the US and overthrowing independent governments.)
Because I don't believe what you just said about him. Literally not even one detail.
No need to believe, just look at the facts.
Ok done. Still don't believe it cuz the facts don't support it. It's interesting to see how far people attempt to stretch the facts tho.

In good faith, what is your burden of proof that would change your mind?
Well, given all your comments in this thread, thanks for outing yourself as an insane person.
Seriously? His destruction of USAID and the various estimates of resulting deaths is well documented.

You say this from a throwaway account that you know will get banned.
Dang, maybe think about IP banning this guy for such a premedidated move.

it's worse really. at least there are subreddits relatively free of trump bad elon bad non stop nonsense
Trump seems objectively bad at his job by a number of metrics. So it seems reasonable that would be the consensus in most forums.

lmao
Not a fan of Musk either, but him being "Racist" or throwing a Nazi Salute are quite frankly the least of my concerns with him.
To be fair Nick Fuentes praised him on his perfect Nazi salute
agreed, the de facto genocide bit is slightly more concerning to me
