      There’s something disturbing about the thought of children raised on Fisher-Price military toys growing up to be in the military, going off and murdering poor brown kids who are also playing with Fisher-Price toys

      Reminds me of that time a Pewdiepie fan committed a mass shooting and was saying ‘subscribe to Pewdiepie’, and I was wondering if one of the children he shot might also have been a Pewdiepie fan (which didn’t feel impossible given Pewdiepie has a gigantic fanbase)

        Ya gotta get ‘em hooked on murder early, or they’re gonna grow up with all sorts of twisted thoughts about not pushing the genocide button.

    Q: What happens to your commitment to child safety?

    Fisher-Price has, for nearly a century, ensured that no toy contained a small part that could be swallowed by a child under three years of age. We are pleased to report that our autonomous weapons systems do not contain small parts.

    Going from 'Speak and Spell" to “Bring the Rain” is a choice I guess.

    Yeah yeah. I know it’s an onion article. I know. I saw.

    After yesterdays post about the environmental shoe company switching to an ai data center model, I didn’t even blink twice at this.

    That’s where we are now. I read that fischer price is becoming an ai weapons producer, and my immediate response was a shrug. Like “Yeah, sure. That may as well happen.”
