switched to tidal months ago and haven’t looked back. spotify offers absolutely nothing that can’t be gotten from another music streamer and without all the shitty bullshit of spotify. unless you just simply can’t live without podcasts

- Comment on What do you think the solution to selling progressive politics to young men is ? 6 days ago:
this is the gordion knot that the “let’s respect the nazi’s viewpoint instead of mocking and ridiculing them” people have allowed us all to become tangled up in. fascists have been allowed to take over education, mass media, social media, news media, and every other possible channel of communication, making avoidance of their propaganda almost impossible, let alone keeping kids away. they’ve pretty much defeated public libraries, and next will be academic libraries and higher ed altogether. they don’t want anyone exploring any ideas that didn’t originate with the fascist regime
cult programming and mind control, after it’s already happened, is extremely difficult to reverse. used to be a team of people would have to involuntarily abduct a person and perform intense deprogramming methods over a course of days or weeks to get someone out of the cult mindset. and that was just for one single person. btw anyone who tries to tell you maga is not a full-blown textbook definition of cult is either part of the cult, or in denial of reality. same as the maga cult.
now we have millions of people simultaneously believing that they’re perpetual victims and also invincible and superior to their supposed “oppressors”-- anyone woke, women, mexicans, lgbtq…pretty much anyone who isn’t straight, white, male, evangelical, republican, nth generation citizens.
i wish i had a feasible answer, but the outlook is grim

- Comment on Study: Remote working benefits fathers while childless men miss sense of community 1 week ago:
ok. the reasons someone might actually want to go to work in the office (e.g., can’t interact with people who aren’t getting paid to interact) are not the same reasons CEOs want to force you to work in the office (control; oversight; subjugation)

i also briefly dated an italian girl, and had a legit straight-off-the-plane italian roommate.

trump could sell bowls of diarrhea with his name on it for $1000, and his sucker cultist followers would take out loans to buy it
- Comment on Interesting way to deal with people who have had enough 1 week ago:
i thought this wouldn’t go over too well with a lot of people, but it’s a private club in NJ presumably run by italians, so yea. no one’s going to argue
- Comment on Study: Remote working benefits fathers while childless men miss sense of community 1 week ago:
i’m skeptical of any study that concludes anyone would rather deal with all the bullshit of working in the office rather than wfh
no one goes to work for the “community,” which can also be gotten literally anywhere other than work

- Comment on Press F to pay respects 1 week ago:
the advice i’ve heard is pick one that isn’t too big but not too small either. spend some time looking at the local communities to see if they align with what you want. .zip is focused on gaming and tech which is me. others are politics heavy. some are widely defederated, which may be the only thing that really matters-- you don’t want one that everyone can’t stand
- Comment on Police make 'mass arrests' in LA during nighttime curfew 1 week ago:
that’s one of the things that happens under a police state. if you live in or near a big city, especially one with protests happening, then get used to making sure you have no need to leave home after sundown for the foreseeable future
