DESPERATELY trying to insinuate that the only possible reason to acknowledge that many people find distasteful the association between OpenAI and the desire for autonomous killbots MUST be that people are being unfair to Trump because of mental illness.
Oh, Trump Derangement Syndrome. I found a utility in Wisconsin and was really trying to find the connection…
I guess to address the point, having a problem with Hegseth isn’t the same as having a problem with Trump. And given some of Trump’s administration is embracing e.g. Mythos, it seems unfair to characterize Dario v. Hegseth as anything broader.
There was a recent moment when OpenAI went from the uncontested darling of consumer and investing America, to being second place to Anthropic. It happened rapidly, and I saw it at least on the investor side in the weekend after the supply-chain risk designation. (Disclosure: that’s also the week I signed up for Claude, in part out of protest, but mostly to see what the fuss was about.) I think there is a lesson for anyone working with startups or in tech from this example—it may be one of the most violent strategic sea changes I’ve seen in a while.
I feel like there should be a rule on any forum that if somebody non-ironically uses “TDS” they should just get permabanned by a bot with no explanation.
> they should just get permabanned by a bot with no explanation
I really like HN's system of flagging versus banning. Like, I genuinely mapped TDS to Trump Derangement Syndrome, something I wasn't doing before because I thought it was a joke versus something his supporters thought of seriously.
Accusing someone of TDS for anything short of complete subservience to Trump is a thought terminating sentence they use to protect their fragile egos and to try and darvo their way out of any legitimate position.
Its a cult. They are beyond reason at this point and working entirely off of emotions and now view the entire movement as part of their personality. That leads to feeling like they, personally, are being attacked whenever their leader is criticized.

He thinks you insulted his daddy somehow and is having a temper tantrum about it.

I think we’d all be better off ignorant of it tbh

I just can’t imagine reacting that way in the name of someone I don’t even know, let alone a politician.

Hegseth represents existing military priorities. The original comment presents the issue as if it's isolated to a single administrator.
It wouldn't call it TDS but it does project a severe political blind spot.
