You have the same beliefs as your great uncle. That's great. Does everyone have the same beliefs as their family members from 80 years ago?

Are you your ancestors? Am I mine?

Me: Just because MAGA's ancestors fought Nazi Germans doesn't mean MAGA aren't fascists.

You: By that logic you are a fascist.

OK buddy.

Did you mean the 25th amendment? Article 12 just describes the process for electing the president and VP.

No one, I think, is in my tree.

I mean, it must be high or low.

Turns out that one was actually universal.

"What? This group of fascists has absolutely nothing to do with that group of fascists. This group's ancestors fought that group."

You remind me of God in this classic:

A holocaust survivor dies of old age and goes to heaven. When he gets there, he meets God and tells him a holocaust joke.

God says, "That’s not funny."

And the man says, "I guess you had to be there."

Aw, come on.

"Cartoonist found dead in home. Details are sketchy."

"Where's the best place to hide after committing murder? Behind a badge."

"Did you know today is the anniversary of the Jonestown massacre? I'd tell you a joke about it, but the punch line is too long."

Yeah, robots looking at photos of kids that their parents voluntarily posted on the internet is no laughing matter. Way more serious than, say, violent crime. And nobody makes jokes about that, do they?

While I personally wouldn't want AI inserting trains into photos of my kids without my consent, many kids like trains, and they could add some whimsy to an otherwise uninteresting picture.
