Last time I checked, the executive didn't decide about indictments or sentences. But I guess that's all going to change if Dementia Don wins.

[-] Stern@lemmy.world 50 points 2 years ago

Guantanamo Bay has entered the conversation.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 17 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

The argument there was that they were POWs captured on the battlefield, and thus under the purview of the CinC.

There is no way to make that argument regarding Zuckerberg.

[-] EvacuateSoul@lemmy.world 22 points 2 years ago

Not POWs, but enemy combatants, which they made up to avoid responsibilities to POWs.

[-] FlyingSquid@lemmy.world 8 points 2 years ago

Fair point. Regardless, not something that could be done with Zuckerberg. He couldn't lock him up for the same reason he couldn't lock Hillary up.

The supreme court has ruled 6-3 that Zuck belongs in Gitmo because Chewbacca is a wookie and there are no wookies on Endor.

[-] LifeInMultipleChoice@lemmy.world 5 points 2 years ago

I've seen a Wookie on Endor. Fairly certain I was there for it.

Illegal? Like marking legitimate news stories that criticize Trump as spam to scare away voters from reading them?

Sounds like great incentive for Zuck to do everything in his power to make sure Trump doesn't get reelected.

I'd actually prefer the justice system abide by the law and current sentencing guidelines. But like yes, obviously he should be prosecuted if he breaks the law just like...anyone else you might name.

[-] emax_gomax@lemmy.world 6 points 2 years ago

Ridiculous. If you can't even rise above the law by inflating your wallet, what incentive is there to get rich. /s

[-] tlou3please@lemmy.world 29 points 2 years ago

Bit of an empty threat when he can just upload his consciousness into a different copy of his current model.

[-] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 27 points 2 years ago

Anything illegal in this case = anything trump dislikes.

Full petty dictator mode.

[-] jaggedrobotpubes@lemmy.world 20 points 2 years ago

I mean we should be doing that if that happens.

I love that he only manages to be right about something when he's wrong at a far more fundamental level.

Maybe Zucc and Trump can be cellmates

[-] homesweethomeMrL@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago

I approve this message

[-] barsquid@lemmy.world 12 points 2 years ago

It would be cool with me if both Zuckerberg and Donald went to jail for the rest of their lives.

[-] EleventhHour@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago

i'd really enjoy seeing him try

[-] DMBFFF@lemmy.world 7 points 2 years ago* (last edited 2 years ago)

If it would be a life sentence, then Zuckerburg might as well assassinate him.

(note: this is hypothetical, I'm not advocating Trump's assassination, I much prefer he win less than 40% of the popular vote and less than 200 EVs, and that he runs again for President in 2028, 2032, and 2036)
