Why are people shocked a charismatic and handsome person got Trump to love him.
That man surrounds himself with nothing but wet brains, grotesques, and personality voids on the daily. How would you react to Zohran if you had daily interactions with Stephen Miller?

I know nothing about gaming. But I know evil when I see it. And a CEO who answers the question 'how do you think of the problem of predators on Roblox?' with 'We think of it not necessarily just as a problem, but an opportunity' is either the stupidest person in existence, or straightforwardly evil.
We Asked Roblox’s C.E.O. About Child Safety. It Got Tense.

Lots of replies and quotes warning parents to ban their kids from using Roblox. And fair enough.
But don’t forget that pushing the problem onto individual parents was what the CEO advocated for.
The real solution is government regulation. So call your representatives too.

This interview is a snapshot into where tech companies are with online harassment right now.
They know how to end it, but they decided not to spend the money. They’re prioritizing growth (and profit) above all else. And they’re blaming YOU for logging on to the platform they designed to be unsafe.

There's a lot to say about the Roblox CEO interview, and the right place to start is definitely his answers on children's safety, because that's kind of the fire that is hottest and closest.
However, I have to also say, the polymarket stuff is real 'summation of our neoliberal dumpster fire' shit.

If we have a kid we are absolutely forbidding Roblox. I know I will inevitably cave on a number of other stupid things all their little friends are doing, but this is a hard line in the sand that no amount of screaming will change.
