- Comment on The actual nonsense being posted r/conservative Reddit 9 hours ago:
MAGA is a mental illness. I’ve been saying it for a decade, and it’s only become more apparent with time. The whole state of American politics indicates a mental illness epidemic, and Newsmax etc are basically more fascistic versions of Fox News… which spelled imminent collapse when they came on the scene, because Fox was always blatantly fascist 25 years ago.

2 Palestinian girls injured by Israeli state-sanctioned terrorism as terrorists torch Palestinian vehicle in West Bank
FTFY
- Comment on Is this the end of Bootloader Unlocking in the EU? 3 days ago:
Notice how the article implies Samsung and other corporations don’t want to do this, even though it’s something they’ve wanted to do for a long time? They almost certainly lobby and ghost write most of this legislation to begin with.
- Comment on Australia | Popular cars using up to 33% more fuel than advertised 3 days ago:
Makes sense when you realise most regulatory bodies rely on the self-reporting of corporations, because we live in a god damn clown world of corporate dictatorships masquerading as “democracy”.
“We’ll just let the criminals report what crimes they’re committing. Who needs police.” <- this is how your government works.
- Comment on ATO to review processes around decision to cancel ex-PM's company's $950k tax bill 5 days ago:
Processes that allow corruption, or knowledge about the corruption?
Fucking parasites.
- Comment on Collective Shout Purge Sees Horror Games In Crosshairs 5 days ago:
It’ll be some “evolution is the devil” creationism bullshit, because this is a Christian fascist movement.
- Comment on Trump, breaking with Netanyahu, acknowledges ‘real starvation’ in Gaza 6 days ago:
But neither of those give Israel the exclusive access necessary to starve the population?
- Comment on Activist Who Helped Film “No Other Land” Shot and Killed by Israeli Settler 6 days ago:
Calling them “settlers” is a major part of how all of MSM is complicit in the genocide.
They are terrorists who force people from homes and steal their land.
- Comment on United Nations chief urges Australia to aim higher as it debates climate goals 1 week ago:
Everybody knows images without sources or scales are the most trustworthy!
Where do you think they get their coal from? If you hand a gun to a murderer you are a coconspirator. Not absolved of your crimes.
Also, if you knew anything about statistics, you’d know that your stats are shit, and this is more important.
But China bad amirite jackass?
- Comment on EU age verification app to ban any Android system not licensed by Google 1 week ago:
Fascism is making a comeback, and everyone’s dumb enough to believe it’s an America problem, instead of a global oligarchy, class war, problem.
- Comment on The Johns Hopkins University Press will license its authors' books to train AI models, citing concerns that “the window may be closing” for making AI deals 1 week ago:
“Soon the fascist dictatorship will give away all our data to their oligarchs for free”
- Comment on Insurance giant says most US customer data stolen in cyber-attack 1 week ago:
At this point I assume most data breaches are just a criminal conspiracy between the corpo and data brokers.
No corporation bothers securing their data to a reasonable extent, so naturally they might as well accept the additional revenue stream or a “breach”. It’s not like they face any significant consequences 99% of the time.
- Comment on India bans streaming apps you’ve never heard of — but millions watch 1 week ago:
There are similar forces at work everywhere.
Crimes pays, and the criminal oligarchs in every economy prefer dictatorship to democracy.
- Comment on Zelensky hopes US will buy up to $30 billion worth of Ukrainian drones 1 week ago:
With a 3000% markup, 2000% of which goes to corruption.
- Comment on UK, Australia back embattled submarine deal with US 1 week ago:
Traitors capitulating to fascism, and condemning their countries to the same fate.
- Comment on Do you think GOG might be the next? 1 week ago:
Another great example of why their monopoly racket should be destroyed.
- Comment on “You can't be expected to have a successful AI program when every single article, book or anything else that you've read or studied, you're supposed to pay for” Donald Trump said 1 week ago:
But you aren’t an oligarch of the fascist dictatorship, so you have no rights.
- Comment on “You can't be expected to have a successful AI program when every single article, book or anything else that you've read or studied, you're supposed to pay for” Donald Trump said 1 week ago:
You can’t defeat the fascist mental illness with logic. Fascism is a fusion of corporation and state. The only rule of law is whatever the dictator(s) believe protects their regime/corporations profits.
- Comment on China's Robotaxi Companies Are Racing Ahead of Tesla 2 weeks ago:
Heavily underutilized for now. It’s significantly cheaper and easier to build the network too early than too late, when you have to coordinate property acquisition and demolition across the full length of the network.
- Comment on Massistant - new tool used by Chinese government to spy on seized phones 2 weeks ago:
That’s not much better tbh. Remote VPN into your computer/NAS at home, otherwise just live with a burner while you’re there.
- Comment on Driver who killed a father and injured his 6 year old son sent 44 Snapchat messages while driving 100km/h before fatal crash 2 weeks ago:
Too bad there’s no hard labor.
This is how you give governments and corporations an incentive for slavery. The USA has this, as well as the largest prison population on earth.
- Comment on Misogyny is thriving in our schools. Why aren’t we doing more? 2 weeks ago:
Lol. I’m guessing you’re one of those cucks who think we should solve fascism and narcissism in the marketplace of ideas. Give me a break loser.
- Comment on Tax breaks for huge US-style utes cost Australians over $250m in foregone revenue in 2023. 2 weeks ago:
Yeah my cousin had a new big truck for work and I thought it was an F150 or whatever, but it’s some Chinese car, which is still like 25% smaller than an F150.
Most of these cars simply should not be legal. It would make sense if they could carry more than old utes but they carry less, and do it less efficiently. It’s like the fossil fuel industry is manufacturing cars to consume more fuel. There needs to be a carbon tax and similar to prevent this type of obscene waste.
- Comment on Misogyny is thriving in our schools. Why aren’t we doing more? 3 weeks ago:
Why do you blame teachers, apparently because they’re women, and not their parents?
This is the result of giving “conservative” misogynists a platform instead of a black eye.

- Comment on Microplastics will be the "boomers all have lead poisoning" of millennials 3 weeks ago:
It looks like the cumulative total of plastics produced by the 80’s was around 2-3 trillion tons, whereas now it’s probably more like 20-30T.
- Comment on Australians could cut power bills by 90% if they made their homes more energy efficient, report finds 3 weeks ago:
Just another example of the externalities of capitalism. Because housing is focused on maximizing profits for the few, instead of housing quality and security for the population, renters spend 10x more on energy, which also means dramatically more e-waste for bespoke/temporary appliances, and greenhouse gas emissions.
- Comment on Holy sh*t: Jack Dorsey just Announced Bitchat(A secure, decentralized, peer-to-peer messaging app for iOS and macOS that works over Bluetooth mesh networks) Licensed Under Public Domain. 3 weeks ago:
In the context of the US fascist dictatorship and Apple being the dominant smartphone there, starting with Apple makes sense.
If it can be done within Apples curated monopoly, it will be technically possible on Android (probably).
- Comment on China’s Next-Gen TV Anchors Hustle for Jobs AI Already Does: The rise of AI in broadcasting is pushing China’s top journalism schools to rethink what skills still set human anchors apart. 3 weeks ago:
The AI anchor will never die, grow old, or grow a conscience. It can remain the perfect propaganda operative, A/B test in real time, etc, forever.
- Comment on Most people's earliest memories are at around 3 or 4 years of age, which correlates with the age kids start asking "why" for everything. Kids start asking why when they become self-aware. 4 weeks ago:
It’s probably more related to how the hardware stores the software; the strength of a memory depends on the strength (complexity) in the interconnectivity of neurons related to that memory. The more some piece of information relates to other information, the physically stronger the connection of neurons that make up that information become.
Prior to 3ish our brains are focused on the foundations needed to form memories; sensory perception, language, etc. Once we start converting collections of senses and language into experiences it probably reaches a threshold where those pathways are complex enough to last, and continually reinforced or built upon, for a lifetime.
