  • I saw a quote in the newspaper this morning:

    We were losing hundreds of billions of dollars with China now we’re essentially not doing business with China. Therefore, we’re saving hundreds of billions of dollars. Very simple.

    It’s just so incredibly wrong and stupid.

    I appreciate your point. A few months ago I was in a discussion with someone on Lemmy about the strategy of maliciously complying with someone that has insincerely stated a preference for neo-pronouns. The example in the discussion was Elon Musk claiming “prosecute/Fauci” as pronouns, but insincere pronouns aren’t necessarily so easily spotted. (My position was and is that it’s okay to maliciously comply with someone’s professed pronouns to demonstrate that person’s insincerity)

    If you’re not tired of tutoring ignorant allies I’d really appreciate your opinion on that dilemma.
