- Comment on Airlines will make a record $118 billion in extra fees this year—their websites are designed to get you to pay 11 months ago:
The irony is that they all exist only because of bailouts. Privatize profits but always democratize the losses. Capitalism is the biggest scam.
- Comment on UnitedHealthcare accused of using AI that denies critical medical care coverage | (Allegedly) putting profit before patients? What a shock. 11 months ago:
Capitalism and healthcare are fundamentally incompatible, the failed USA proves it every day, all day, 365.

LOL the guy who believed he could work with Republicans over and over after they Charlie browned him with the football, stole his court oick, and made him into a joke… his opinion and track record of being wrong on every bet he made matters why?
- Comment on X Is The Biggest Source Of Fake News And Disinformation, EU Warns 1 year ago:
Being a threat to national security, this company should just be dissolved and its owner put in GITMO.

- Comment on Adobe Stock is Selling AI-Generated Images of the Israel-Hamas Conflict 1 year ago:
As this war is the latest, most advanced in misinformation and disinformation, it makes sense that Adobe knows the market.
He’ll they probably sell directly to the worldnews group on lemmy they have a greater number of fake stories than real ones.
Their sales force needs to be ready for the upcoming US election. It’ll be raining dollars.

Not coming. They’re here. As are general robots, the ai can control. Now, it’s just a transition period .
- Comment on Amazon made $1 billion through secret price raising algorithm -US FTC 1 year ago:
This is simply not surprising coming from a company that literally defines anti-trust, anti-consumer, and heavy monopoly abuse. It should be broken up into hundreds of companies.
- Comment on Verified Hate Speech Accounts [on X] Are Pivoting to Palestine for Clout and Cash 1 year ago:
Yeah, their admins are an abomination.
I’ve watched them remove multiple stories where the Palestinian PM refused to condem hamas and the attack on the 7th but constantly allowed MBFC debunked sources (against their own rules) as long as it’s antisemtic
And you didn’t get banned from it. They saved you from engaging with them. Plus, now we know Lemmy worldnews isn’t an alternative to anything except maybe Stormfront.
- Comment on Pope says two-state solution needed for Israel-Palestine 1 year ago:
No, Hamas brought Bibi to power, not the other way around, and they were adamantly against 2 state.
I really think Perez and Arafat could have finished the Oslo accords. I think that’s why Hamas went all out to make sure he couldn’t complete Rabins’ legacy after that radical orthodox piece of shit assassinated him. The timing of the bombingd and election results make it pretty definitive that Bibi’s rise to power was their goal. I really don’t see a difference between Bibi and Hamas and think they desperately need each other. They’re all fuckign war criminals.
I’m definitely with you on all civilian losses. They are horrific and condemable. As are all Bibis/IDF and Hamas war crimes. I condemn all war crimes and collective punishment of civilians is a war crime, as is Hamas, operating with them as shields.
But I definitely also think Israel has a right to exist. Which is a super unpopular opinion amongst all the antisemites on Lemmys world news, including very specifically their mods.
- Comment on Pope says two-state solution needed for Israel-Palestine 1 year ago:
No Hamas sunk the two state solution when Bibi was up against Perez and losing. So Hamas used suicide bombers and blew up buses murdering civilians like always. It enabled Bibi to win by less than 1%. Perez was looking to implement two state, and Israel was still behind it till then.
Hamas successfully swayed Israeli opinion enough to get Bibi in there and sink any chance of two states.
Ironically, if Arafat had cracked down on Hamas, Perez would have won, and Arafat would have stayed in power. But by protecting the terrorists he cost himself his position and ensured Hamas’ rise to power.
History is neat if you learn it, but it’s probably annoying when you talk shit without knowing what you’re talking about.

Can you though?
- Comment on Verified Hate Speech Accounts [on X] Are Pivoting to Palestine for Clout and Cash 1 year ago:
Here on Lemmt it’s the worldnews community that’s become a hate group on this topic. Probably a lot of the X accounts are from that crew.
- Comment on Pfizer says it will price Covid treatment Paxlovid at nearly $1,400 for a five-day course, which researchers estimate only costs Pfizer $13 to produce. That's a 10,000%+ markup. Shameful. 1 year ago:
Regulate the fuck out of the drug companies or nationalize them. Idc which, but operating unbridled is clearly a failure. Unregulated capitalism will kill us.

- Comment on A Chatbot Encouraged Him to Kill the Queen. It’s Just the Beginning 1 year ago:
History has had many instances where people very logically followed a thought process that led them to the truth of killing off the royals. Legitimate debates could be had about the pros and cons of this solution. French revolution could teach us all a lot about today’s capitalists (read royals).

Fascinating, I had not heard that. IS there any realistic chance of that happening? Is it even possible? I don’t know the ownership distribution.

- Comment on why doesn't Egypt open its borders to Gaza? 1 year ago:
Even when they weren’t on the verge of collapse, they wouldn’t help. It’s politically expedient to have them there and feign outrage at Israel. It helps mask their anti-semitism and distracts from all the times the Arabs have attacked Israel, hoping to destroy it.
I am not PRO Israel… they have enormous and many war crimes under their belt. Just as the Palestinians do. If you think there is one easily culpable pRty here and just a victim and a bully, then you have not studied the history of that region and conflicts. Do not the my word for it, go reasearch–its out there and available. Do check your sources, though.
- Comment on why doesn't Egypt open its borders to Gaza? 1 year ago:
One, they don’t give a fuck about the Palestinians, they only want it as a bargaining chip for diplomatic purposes. Same with all the Arab nations who clutch their pearls. The Palestianins have been intentionally isolated there by all the Arab nations bc they use it for PR.
- Comment on Apple may be quiet on AI, but it’s also the biggest buyer of AI companies 1 year ago:
We need to spend the next 3-4 decades breaking up all these monoplies and duopolies. And then not allow it again, since this will be the second time we’ve had to do this.
