Barack Obama ~1,927 |
George W. Bush ~200 |
Bill Clinton ~459 |
George H.W. Bush ~77 |
Don't come here and lie. You almost doubled the number for Joe Biden (the vast majority of which were pardons for simple possession of marijuana) while omitting the extremely well-known fact that Trump pardoned ~1500 people who were convicted for offenses committed on January 6, thus deflating his total by >80%.

Even if the numbers were correct, the numbers are absolutely no use without context, except perhaps to allow partisan mud-slinging on Twitter.
Biden pardoned thousands of non-violent low-level marijuana convictions, which is why the numbers look like that. Trump pardoned a large number of violent protesters.
This is meaningless without context.
Not attacking you but using your message to say to anyone reading: Is there a lesson here about what our AI future looks like? The OG thread comment is using summarized information to induce anxiety. When everyone has a 'suped-up AI bot running around the net for them, how much more noise like this is there going to be? How many people will have armies?
Median net worth of pardonees? 6500 of Biden’s are for marijuana offenses. Not exactly corruption there.
