There is an easy logic test to see if a person’s “mind” is really in a clone/copy/backup. If the original and the copy exist at the same time would the original perceive itself in two places? If not, then that “exact copy” method doesn’t work … the original just dies and a near copy is made. Someone mentioned the zombie theory earlier in the post … just about as creepy.

Nope. If it makes a perfect copy of you during transport … you die during the transport.

If you come through with a transporter clone your original mind doesn’t inhabit both of them … so your original mind will not inhabit either of them.

The horrific story of “Megan and the HOA Murder” tomo night on True Crime.

It hurts to agree with them doesn’t it? Yet, it’s so funny to watch them bite at each other.

The US does operate on the principle that companies should actually have limits on how far they can grow. This was set forth in the Sherman Act of 1890. The fact that it was not there at the founding of the country, embedded in the constitution, is probably a contributing factor on why the US is falling into corruption today. The main cause is of course political parties, which should have been made illegal. George Washington predicted our current future in his exit speech when he said that political parties would be the downfall of the US … he was right.

This is how the USA works now. Not just unethical companies and monopolies but super monopolies and upright evil companies. If you ever want to make yourself mad Google EssilorLuxottica, it is the largest eyeglass manufacturer, sunglass manufacturer, eyeglass retailer … and believe it or not it also owns Eyemed eye insurance. It’s not the biggest eye insurance company … yet.

Billionaires are a cancer on society. No healthy economy can survive the corruption that billionaires create. These people could do amazing things and change society for the better … but all of them decide that evil suits them.

AI doesn’t really create, it just copies and does style “mash ups”. Right now people notice AI being weird and out of place. Eventually people will start to notice AI getting stale and repetitive instead.

Yep, and in the US, if you miss something on your taxes the government/IRS will delay the taxes and actually redo them and send you the new amount.

Jo gets deepdived by a dozen people. No … not the title of the next furry porn, just what is happening now on Lemmy.

Yep! Don’t worry, scrote. There are plenty of 'tards out there living really kick-ass lives!

Oh yeah. The US leadership is filled with Russian assets and Putin playthings.

Just like that, you have moved any books written about the Purge from fiction to non-fiction.

Let’s cover polygamy and tax fraud. If you marry multiple people during the purge … does that mean the marriages are all legal?

If you claim a $1,000,000 tax refund and mail it while the purge is going … is that legal?

Most people would have way more on their mind than just murder.
