Pigs run this country.

There are but its a big country. Not everyone can walk on DC.

Probably took a “news break”
- Comment on DOGE Plan to Push AI Across the US Federal Government is Wildly Dangerous 3 weeks ago:
Are they going to outsource data entry to india? All AI “benefits” are almost solely derived from outsourcing.
Who am I kidding, this is probably just a scheme to get the government to pay for “Grok” which might as well be a word that means “garbage”
- Comment on A Reddit moderation tool is flagging ‘Luigi’ as potentially violent content 3 weeks ago:
How many people died in those?
Gotta sat, I feel like being opposed to police brutality and a genocide seems kinda… non radical.

I’m feverishly imagining smart phones with old school slider keyboards
- Comment on YSK: That nazis Don't Actually Believe in Free Speech 3 weeks ago:
What speech were “wannabe antifa supersoldiers” trying to suppress?
There’s legitimate benefits to societies disallowing fraud and abusive speech- lies and threats can drown out useful benefits of actual free speech by squelching it.
- Comment on A Reddit moderation tool is flagging ‘Luigi’ as potentially violent content 3 weeks ago:
This is unhinged. The so called “radical left” is largely a scapegoat for the people that currently run the government. The “radical left” isn’t going around shooting up synagogues and black churches. Even the one act of violence the “radical left” supports was committed by somebody who clearly was more of a “radical centrist”
- Comment on You knew it was coming: Google begins testing AI-only search results | This version of Google won't show you the 10 blue links at all—Gemini completely takes over the results in AI Mode 3 weeks ago:
Who asked for this?
- Comment on ‘The tyranny of apps’: those without smartphones are unfairly penalised, say campaigners 5 weeks ago:
Managers probably sold apps as a cost cutting measure
- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 1 month ago:
Anything from twitter should be suspect, especially without a date. I get your point though, I’ll note screenshot is fake.
- Comment on So, is the USA screwed? 1 month ago:
No, but based on his actions I think its a reasonable interpretation of his thoughts.

We live in a criminally stupid country but Musk is doing his best to show everyone that being a billionaire should be a crime.

Oh thats going to be bad news when musk sells them all that info

- Comment on Decentralised social media offers an alternative to big tech platforms like X and Meta. How does it work? Podcast 1 month ago:
I came from Reddit, strong disagree. I think the lemmy UI is far cleaner than reddit. Bluesky is way better than twitter and is technically decentralized.
Mastodon, for sure is a bit shitty with little thought put into discovery.
- Comment on GOP Proposes $4.5 Trillion Tax Giveaway to the Rich While 'Ransacking' Food Stamps and Medicaid 1 month ago:
A bunch of trump admin people wrote project 2025 with the heritage foundation. Trump himself is a well known liar and was under criminal prosecution.

They’re the same guy.
- Comment on Anonymous: Trump is making America weaker and we’ll exploit it - News Cafe 1 month ago:
Ceo residences would do better. Force them all to live in the office hellscape they created.
- Comment on Anonymous: Trump is making America weaker and we’ll exploit it - News Cafe 1 month ago:
This is kinda what trump wants. If the government cant handle “online stuff” they, can pitch privatization. It hurts more if megacorps get hacked up. Though at this point I wou’d laugh if a bunch of internet nerds got the nuclear codes or locked up a bunch of satellites
- Comment on China is quietly pushing ahead with massive 50,000Mbps broadband rollout to leapfrog rest of the world on internet speeds 1 month ago:
Man, real countries are doing this shit while the US is doing an illegal war on the thought crime of being"woke".
- Comment on I wonder how things are going in America today... 1 month ago:
I think the atomization of society shows that its not just a desire but that independence is a social pressure. “Pull yourself up by your bootstraps” is the air we breathe. Thats why business people like musk deny they got say, emerald mine money; the social pressure to seem self reliant is far greater than the social pressure to tell the truth
- Comment on For No Reason in Particular Here's a Bunch of Games Where You Kill Nazis 1 month ago:
Ok now where are the mods to add elon musk’s face to one of them?
- Comment on I wonder how things are going in America today... 1 month ago:
That is the mindset that got us here. Maybe it will help to double down, but the reality is we don’t know, we’re in uncharted waters
- Comment on Bluesky now has 30 million users. 1 month ago:
Twitter was ad driven and was enshittifying before musk bought it, and sold because they were a public company.
Jay Graber will likely get bored and sell it off or monetize eventually but twitter is definitely not the model here.
- Comment on Bluesky now has 30 million users. 1 month ago:
What would a comparable example be?
- Comment on Bluesky now has 30 million users. 1 month ago:
Until there’s overt advertising its unlikely to enshittify the normal way. That doesn’t mean it won’t, just that a different capital process is at work. Wikipedia has outlived most of “web2.0” because of its funding model.

The people who say this tend to forget that if you only take the “good things” from conservatism it ceases to be conservatism. The conservative ideology is garbage and only leads countries to a sort of destructive cannabalism.
