“In essence” is doing enormous work here, and it will be basically impossible to have any kind of discussion if that work is considered acceptable.
This kind of word-twisting can be used to make pretty much anyone into a murderer, at which point “discussion” will come down to who the mob chooses to listen to.
What kind of health insurance does one have when one is employed in the USA? What is the life expectancy of unemployed people vs. employed?
Case closed.
But if you're trying to get people fired, then obviously the people you're threatening to fire will be pissed. That should be obvious. You and altman playing stupid does not change that, it just makes you look stupid.
But, once more, admitting and owning the consequences of your choices is completely foreign to the American mindset.
You could have AGI emerging tomorrow, telling you "make health insurance universal", and you would unplug it/lobotomize immediately for being "too woke" or "communist".
