Exactly. Let the science advance & let people decide if they want lab-grown meat. It's quite a hypocritical stance coming from the party that's newly discovered a devotion to animal rights when it comes to medical testing.

Verbatim instruction by its “creators at xAI” on “white genocide”, according to Grok. Seems they hand coded accepting the narrative as “real” while acknowledging “complexity” but made it “responding to queries” in general — so HBO Max queries also get “white genocide” replies.🙄 https://t.co/M2Tqr0YFYf
