The biggest favor you've ever done for anyone in your entire life is.... Buying a pack of cigarettes?!

Not true in the US. They could ban anyone born in the entire month of April, or anyone who "looks like a pot smoker" if they wanted to.

+1 for SponsorBlock. I absolutely hate when videos spoil themselves within the first 3 seconds thanks to those fucking intros.

Unless you live on the West coast! Maybe we can join up with Canada to become the new superpower?

There was a hearing in the Senate too? I only saw the one in the US House. Does anyone have a link?!

Remember the end of every Mythbusters episode where they went wild trying to see what it would take for the myth to actually be true? Let's apply that here. What would be the best way to vaporize an entire 30-50g of live resin and get an entire room of people high using household materials?

What if we made a Star Trek movie, but with a smaller 50-100M budget so we can gear it towards existing Star Trek fans instead of hiring JJ Abrams to churn out another generic summer Blockbuster with a thin veneer of Star Trek branding.

In this movie, there will be no violence and the ship won't even fire its' weapons. The script will be thought-provoking with a heavy focus on space and science interweaved with humanist philosophy where the crew overcome some sort of moral or ethical dilemma.

In other words... a Star Trek movie, for fans of Star Trek movies, made in the style of the first Star Trek movies.

No doubt - the advertisers are 100% right to pull out. I was only answering the original commenter that asked how the MM report could be considered defamatory. I definitely didn't intend to come across as a Musk apologist.

@communication

I agree that the core claim of the MM report is not under dispute. But take a look at their article now that you know the context around how those ads were generated.

I don't know if it's defamatory, but you have to agree that it comes off as a bit disingenuous based on the new info from X. Of course that info from X could be BS, which is why I said we'll have to wait for the court case to know for sure.
