The amount is meaningless — less than one day of salary. But the principle is important: once the armed services are paid by the oligarchs, they become a private militia, and we no longer have a country.

White male perpetrator: hardly surprising. Who carried out the assassination of Minnesota legislators? Or the Trump shooting? Or the Pelosi attack? Or 54,4% of mass shootings in the USA?!? But immigrants are threatening your country, m'kay.
So, not gay, not trans, not Antifa, not a lib/Dem but a white unaffiliated young man who was apparently a gamer from a white bread Mormon family in Utah.

ChatGPT geeft antwoord met een enorme zelfverzekerdheid alsof het de vanzelfsprekende waarheid is. Maar het begrijpt niet wat het zelf zegt en checkt ook niet of wat het zegt klopt. Het is een wiskundige formule die op basis van patronen in andere teksten nieuwe zinnen aan elkaar plakt.
