After getting the shakes, sweating profusely and not being able to sleep for a few days when quitting, I really wouldn't say it's not physically addictive.

With Gemini you can let it show you search results for (some) of its statements. It's useful for cross-checking: I was, for example, researching plastics recycling and there was a claim that seemed untrue and corporate. The automagic search/source function for that statement led me to a blog post of some consortium/lobbying group of manufacturers. After telling that to Gemini it apologized and compiled a list of different view points for that specific statement.

I was pretty impressed with that, and I find it very useful for researching topics I know basically nothing about. Of course it's not the sole source of truth.

That's not how this works. Maybe if you get some business consultants, but this ain't it. Just because you hire them yourself, doesn't mean that they'll fall in line with your wishes.

Your poor skin.

I don't understand your last part, what do you mean with "projecting one's self-image"?

I'm not completely, but mostly sure that all of this is astroturfed. It's crazy to me.

The logic of the intellectual right-wing scholars 🥰

You're arguing with basically bots.

It's really hard to discern between people who are fundamentally frustrated with the system and conservative bots (in flesh or code).

In the end they'll both lead to the same thing though, so does it really matter?

And yet your actions will lead to "more genocide" while you go and jerk off in the mirror with your newly gained bargaining power! Good job!

The choice (even if the comparison really doesn't fit) is between one person going to kill one baby and the other person killing five. You're complicit if the second person wins because you're more concerned with suckling on your own genitals about how smart and principled you are instead of dealing with reality.

It's really as simple as that, and no amount of your self-aggrandizing mental gymnastics are going to change that.
