I saw a bit of his testimony. I got none of that…he seemed like a mumbling fool to me. He’s a good actor; I don’t care to see him in this setting. I changed the channel. I do see lots of fan love being tossed his way. |

The interesting thing about the Satanic religion is not whether you believe in it, but how it can be used to challenge religious hypocrisy and or the opposition of ordaining one true religion for the US. You'd be right to suspect it might be an atheist plot by some atheists. But it would be pretty tough to use that as a basis for a challenge. Nearly every elected office from the lowliest position has to endorse some accepted religious practice whether they believe in it or not. So, the influence of religion on all of use is pervasive whether we like it or not. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

You saw what you wanted to see. Obviously. I see a good actor putting on a great performance. If you take a risk, you may lose. If you never take a risk, you will always lose. |

Only real test of free speech is what Musk allows about himself on the platform. Why people might just join to troll Musk day after day. He tried to buy off that kid posting his airline flights. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

I think Depp has succeeded in making Amber Heard look like a nasty person for writing a me-too op-ed when it looks like she was hitting him. Doesn't mean he will win on damages, but I believe he did succeed at that. You believe in an invisible god, and dismiss people who say they are trans? Really? |

I’m actually kind of excited to see how disastrous this goes for Musk. I think his business acumen is *highly* overrated. It will be interesting to see how Twitter is faring a year or so after the acquisition is done. “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |

I don’t think either of them come out of this looking too good. But if his goal was to take her down with him, he’s succeeding. (Also: extremely dumb that the WB fired him from Fantastic Beasts 3 but allowed her to remain in Aquaman 2. They had no real cause to fire him and still had to pay him $16 million or something even though he didn’t work a day on the film!). “A straight man will not go for kids.” - AZDuffman |
