    Oops, posted from the wrong account

    Cannot believe we both did that… Picard just sent me the screenshot equally as dumbfounded. Hey, apparently if you’re active enough on Lemmy you just give up on post titles lmao

    Why be just one person with an alt? Why not be the collective, like the Borg?

    See, I know you y’all were separate people. But then y’all got Tuvix’d and now you’re just trying to maintain the illusion of the originals so you don’t get fully murdered like the original Tuvix.

      Tuvox wasn’t able to be killed as he was not a real being. He was a glitch. He was an error. Janeway did nothing wrong and I would have Ctrl-Z’d him too.

      Honestly, I know that you’re point, but I just wanted to point this out. Let’s say somebody got brain damage They become a completely different person. after a couple of months a treatment is devised to fix this brain damage. However, the person with brain damage no longer wants this. Is it ethical to listen to them? They are not thinking correctly and cannot make the best decisions for themselves. Do you fix the brain damage or do you let them live with this brain damage? Honestly, the argument is not too dissimilar.

    Did… did someone call out your bullshit, but you decided to pre-empt the reveal with your own reveal, Epstein-style?

        Oh no I meant that the dems first released the files, and the republicans immediately release the files harder to gain control of the narrative

    Hmm. Maybe you’re on to something. I’ve never seen the two of them in the same room at the same time. Honestly, I don’t think I’ve seen either of them in any room at any time, but that’s not the point.

    Having been accused of having an alt just because someone else with a bot themed name upvoted one of my comments, I know how frustrating this is from both sides. It’s hard to prove you’re separate people online.

      At first it was annoying but now I just laugh my ass off. Like I’ve got one hell of a double life. On one hand, I’m a gay Canadian living on an island in the ocean with nothing but his cat. On the other hand, I am a straight American in, I assume, America. Also been accused of being cm0002 and even PugJesus. Like… if we’re all alts then how much time do we have on our hands, exactly? So now I just laugh. Patting them on the head like “Yes sweetie. I 100% have a time machine capable of this.”
