Broken clock as speed isn’t right or offset? Doesn’t seem to work

For the phrase, “broken” specifically means “stopped”, and the clock is analog. If the hands don’t turn, then they will be correct twice per day.

Thanks makes more sense! Idk why the downvotes… Because in the case of an offset it would always be wrong and in the case of a speed change.
In the general case, with clock speed a and offset b:
a x + b ≡ x (mod 12)
a x + b = x + 12k
If a=1, normal speed with offset,
b = 12k ≡ 0 (mod 12)
So it works for any multiple of 12h offset (ie no offset)
If a≠1,
x = (12k - b)/(a-1)
It isn’t always in a day, so you can end up having to wait multiple days for it to be right

Sure. But context matters. I doubt everyone would have gotten too riled up if he was hailing a cab instead of showing alignment with neofascist ideals.
If it doesn’t 100% look like a Heil, and isn’t repeated twice, after buying one’s way into influence over a blatantly xenophobic candidate with a record of racism, sure.

Yeah but you really can’t dox people even if it seems like the moral thing to do. It wasn’t any decision made outside the company, it was made by reddit because it was walking a fine line with their policies.
I’m going entirely off theory but there is a likely chance the people who got hired to be a minion had no idea the parameters of the job. I’ve gone thru the government job listings and they will tell you only so much about the position. What is required to qualify for the job, what tasks will be done in the job but beyond that, they aren’t going to tell you what the grand scheme of the position is. So to me, if any of that is true, then they are trying to post the identities of people who may be appalled by what their job is but don’t have the means to step down without having other income already lined up.
I’m not saying anything about what musk is doing is right. I’m just saying, there should be action taken to prevent the identities of people being posted on the internet for all to see.
Dont forget, reddit has literally falsely identifyied an innocent man who committed suicide as being the Boston bomber. Creating an absolute hell for the grieving family who thought their son was missing only to find out he committed suicide before the boston bombing happened. They only found out from the reddit manhunt to dox an innocent person.

If you work for the government, then yes, your name is (unless you’re doing some classified shit) is public. So is/was your salary.

I kid. I actually think that the one saving grace in all of this is that Trump is generally considered the boss, and famously thin-skinned and jealous, and Musk is like a hot poker to both of those attributes over the long term. I think it’s halfway likely that Trump will turn on Musk, especially after they cause some kind of absolutely unmistakable visible national fuck-up, at which point his plot armor will go away and he’ll suddenly be liable for all of his crimes.
It might be wishful thinking. But I think it’s at least 50% likely.

Seven figures? Try nine. Musk spent an absolutely staggering amount getting Trump elected.
I donated 300 funko pops to him. How many figurines equal one figure?
If you want to know who really is in charge, just look at who you’re not allowed to criticize.
Just FYI, this phrase originates with a literal neonazi.

There is still: !whitepeopletwitter@sh.itjust.works
This is why I think it’s important to stoop to their level and start spreading childish rumors about them.
✔️ Not inciting violence
✔️ Not illegal
✔️ Not significant enough for them to claim defamation
✔️ Makes them far too angry for how petty it is on account of their extremely low emotional intelligence
For example: JD Vance only eats the cat food part of lucky charms pass it on
Another example: JD Vance says he’s sorry after cumming pass it on
Just one more for good measure: JD Vance puts his cast iron in the dishwasher pass it on
You don’t have to spread rumors. The Truth is scandalous enough. The cult will cult.
JD Vance cums in his lucky charms and shares it with his cat
