    For the record, I have no issue with people supporting socialism or transgender rights. I only use those examples because they’re emotionally charged topics in this community, and they illustrate how quickly people’s standards change depending on who the victim is.

    I knew there would be at least one of you.

    There’s a lot that can be debated about the validity, usefulness, and impact of AI data centers or data centers in general. However, I’m not going to get into that discussion with you because it would be a waste of time when you clearly didn’t read or understand what I actually wrote.

    You saw the words “transgender” and “socialism” and immediately assumed I was attacking those groups, which was not the argument I was making. I don’t hate either of them. Those were examples of emotionally charged topics, not the subject of my criticism.

      I explained how the data centers differ from the actual human beings you pretend that you don’t hate.

        You are, once again, insinuating that I hate these groups simply because I used them as examples, even though I specifically said that I fully support them.

        I wasn’t using those examples in a political context. I’m not comparing transgender people or socialists to data centers. I’m pointing out what I see as the two-faced nature of this platform.

        The very same people who advocate for social welfare programs will, in the next breath, cheer on theft from AI data center construction sites.

        Do you genuinely not see the hypocrisy I’m pointing out, or are you so focused on the political buzzwords that you’re missing the context of my argument?
