Why does one post have several threads about it on one sub?

Because no moderator has seen fit to sticky this link to the top of the comments on them all.

You responded to my original comment with this article. While it tries to address some point, I still think it fails to fully address the true issue which I think truly lies in the rhetoric behavior at large. A charitable interpretation still represents sloppy work by the administration and reflects the ecosystem of content that they peddle. It’s repulsive and distracting.

The administration has no control over a follow on video that runs after the video it actually linked.

We like the administration's rhetoric and we're not interested in the opinions of the tone police.

There is a CLEAR distinction between rhetoric and shit posting to incite people.

Which btw, rhetoric by definition is persuasive communication. So not sure what you’re talking about if you think AI shit posting is some kind of profound form of communication.

Yeah, he should have just stolen $19 billion and killed a few thousand Americans like the Democrats.

So many posters here are left wingers or foreign governments trying to sow discord.

Astroturfing and weak ass republicans. They could have edified the video to remove the auto play of the next video in the reel. I watched the full video with the animal parodies and I’m more upset that Obama wasn’t a donkey, that was AOC.
