I'm not defending Elon, I'm trying to make sure he's got no excuses. Many states have a process for removal of a father on grounds of DNA evidence, despite your claim, but it's certainly not an easy one.

Any number of things can happen with IVF and the paternity test is literally "This child is X and Z." Courts recognize paternity tests, courts didn't watch him nut into the jar, so until we confirm with the kid's DNA - it could be anyone.

We do not have a legal president and we don't have a legal precedent for this case.

I'd say Red Faction fits the bill better. They just took them to Mars under the false pretense of work and pay but they beat them when they got there.

If I recall, the prison planet in Riddick was man-made. Wouldn't be the first time I was wrong today though.

The whole of War on Errorism may have been correct but I think it was a tad too optimistic with the line "a million people are smart, smarter than one," because, obviously, they aren't.

So, you would back a military coup at this point?

I mean, I'm not saying it'd be worse but, yeah, the US is well done.

Well, no, they protect the "The Constitution from all enemies foreign and domestic" and shortly thereafter "and that I will obey the orders of the President of the United States and the orders of the officers appointed over me, according to regulations and the Uniform Code of Military Justice."

So, by that logic, 'speaking out' is explicitly against the same oath. Unless of course it's an unlawful order but that's only against the Geneva Convention. Good luck getting some protection there when you decide not to gas the migrants.

Probably didn't get their mail in votes counted, even if FVAP did their job and got them everything.

The military is supposed to be apolitical and not get involved. They're not elected, so they don't attempt to shift public policy... CONGRESS is supposed to advocate for things like this.

Musk's tweet has about 200 retweets and 2.4k 'hearts' (likes), Ubisoft's has 1.9k retweets and has 9.2k hearts. Therefore, nearly 5x the number of people have interacted with Ubisoft's tweet. A 'ratio' of 5:1.

Edit: Guess that's closer to 4:1, regardless, ratio.
