I keep thinking about how a young woman DoorDash driver was charged and hauled into court for recording and posting evidence of her customer sexually harassing her, while nothing is happening to the droves of men using Grok to sexually harass women and children. The institutions are pro-perpetrator.

Grok created an image of a descendent of Holocaust survivors, in a striped bikini outside Auschwitz and is making masses of Nazi imagery.
Bella Wallersteiner described the images generated of her as a "profound violation" that left her feeling powerless and unsafe.

Documents from the Fox-Dominion lawsuit show the sort of garbage this conspiracy sat alongside. Perhaps the easiest way to tell if someone is stupid or full of shit is to hear them suggest that Venezuela had anything to do with 2020.
