I believe she’s telling the truth. Why not mention that instead?

I guess I think bullying one person based on looks makes it easier to bully another second person based on looks, even if the first person is a jerk. It just makes a culture in which that’s acceptable.

It’s more a commentary on photo editors, really. Honestly just like they’re going to run a picture of Taylor Swift for the Ticketmaster story, they’re going to find (easily, apparently) a goofy picture of OpenAIguy to run next to his stories.

I’m not bullying anyone, least of all this billionare crypto pinhead. I’m being mean, yes but if that’s your beef then I dunno what to tell ya. There are some people it’s okay to be mean to in public forums where they’re not present. (Are you Sam? Hey if so, you suck, otherwise please disregard, I’m sure you(not-Sam) are quite nice.)

No, I am not Sam.

You are commenting on how he looks to be mean. That’s bullying.

I know it’s hard for you to get, but it makes it more socially acceptable for someone else to bully someone who might look a bit nerdy, perhaps a young computer nerd who you would find morally pure. I doubt Sam would care or reads lemmy, but it creates a climate in which this is socially acceptable.

It’s hard for you to get that Sam is a public figure. Your tone policing is well-meant but you have no jurisdiction here.
