Question for Musk hating people - I understand why you hate Musk, but why is doing business with Altman or Microslop any better?

Not much better but at least they're not speaking at far right rallys and lending support to fascist parties across Europe.

What really puzzles me is how years of woke insanity are forgotten / forgiven, but a nazi salute is not. Remember how Microslop employees used to start their presentations with a list of Native American tribes who owned the land their office was at? Maybe people don't read Orwell anymore... that stuff was straight out of 1984.

I see being downvoted on my question already - can people who hate Musk not see the difference between asking and supporting?

What microsoft employees do in the privacy of their own meeting rooms has basically no effect on me. When Elon Musk appears along side Tommy Robinson in my city, espousing racist "great replacement" to a crowd of drunken thugs and suggesting my neighbours and friends are problem to be expunged from society, well frankly he can fuck right off.

Those are very important things in the context of a programming conference :) There is no baked in reverse racism here at all. Only those awful right wingers do racism.
