Whatever you just said is like demanding a burka. It’s performative stupid.
- Comment on Equal under the law or something 1 day ago:
They really are arguing that murking a CEO has more potential to change things than just about anything else.
- Comment on Is the Fediverse Too Complex? Can It Embrace Simplicity Without Losing Its Identity? 2 days ago:
I think the fediverse is friendly enough. Instead of competing with corporations with streamlined experiences, develop power user tools that actually improve the content on the platform. Like I do want a powerful fediverse search tool, but it doesn’t need to be built into every server.
- Comment on If a hostile country has installed a puppet leader to dismantle your government from the inside and the only thing that would expidite its destruction is a violent revolution how do you combat this? 3 weeks ago:
First all, glad your friend recognized this.
I found this article to be a prescient good grounding: wagingnonviolence.org/…/10-things-to-do-if-trump-…
I’m finding local communities to participate in (potlucks, picnics, movie night, anything that doesn’t spend more money). Sending holiday cards to my neighbors, anything to connect and integrate because what comes next will test all our bonds.

They’re onto killing a bigger fish: The National Labor Review Board.
- Comment on Do you want the murderer of the UnitHealthcare CEO prosecuted? 3 weeks ago:
I want his story to be told then have a jury nullify the case. But I don’t see how any of that will happen.
- Comment on Not disparaging the dead or anything. But why does it seem in the US we are expected to feel sorry for a person who overdoses on illegal drugs? Didn't they make the choice knowing the outcome? 1 month ago:
Why should I feel sorry for you and answer your question?

Oracle or someone worse would buy them. That’s how capitalism works.
- Comment on The Onion buys rightwing conspiracy theory site Infowars with plans to make it ‘very funny, very stupid’ 1 month ago:
Musk just had a judge in Texas say they’re going to review the bid. I guess we know who the other bidder was now.
- Comment on Do the ultra-rich consume popular media? 1 month ago:
Consider that many people who watched the Joker and idolize him didn’t get that the movie was speaking against the character. Fascists don’t understand camp, and so they don’t get that it’s a critique unless the director explicitly tells them so.
- Comment on Watching passport bros get bodied by SEA women is a complete mood. Get rekt manlet. 1 month ago:
Male FUPA. The lower abdomen above the genitals that is extra fatty on the individual.
- Comment on Elon Musk Fans Are Losing So Much Money to Crypto Scams 2 months ago:
But then how will billionaires get to say they’re literally thinking of the big picture because they got to go on a brief space joy ride?

Please deliver this to my moon base
- Comment on Sympathy for their PTSD 2 months ago:
It does if there is a pattern of killing children and those who respond to medical emergencies. We all know they target the ambulances. Seems there’s a terrorist behind every kid, uninhabited graveyard, and hospital. History will not be kind.
- Comment on Sympathy for their PTSD 2 months ago:
There’s literally video of a child getting cut down, then when help comes for the child they blow them up with a bomb. That’s some psychopath shit.

Not sure who needs to hear this but the amount of money spent on private jets by these billionaires in 1 year could replace all our lead pipes in the USA.

Billionaires are celebrities now? Like that’s true for Taylor Swift, but Bezos?
- Comment on Baidu CEO warns AI is just an inevitable bubble — 99% of AI companies are at risk of failing when the bubble bursts 2 months ago:
Probably because we’ll all be dead, which also happens to be a solution to climate change.
- Comment on Lemmy's gaining popularity, so I thought new people should see this. 2 months ago:
I don’t see where Engels says Administration is “central planning”. It certainly seemed to have been an open question for Marx when he talks romantically of the Paris Communes.

You have a sales pitch that works for the poorest countries, what do you have for the wealthiest?

The funny thing is I thought you were talking about all the genocides, including those led by Russia, but then I saw your handle and realized you mean only those done by NATO and their allies.
- Comment on So tired to see Elon Musk in my home page EVERY DAY 2 months ago:
Don’t like it? Then start a revolution.
- Comment on Is American politics really as seemingly satirical of itself as it is portrayed? 2 months ago:
You summed it up correctly. The thing is the presidential race used to be a horse show, but that format was somehow easily hijacked by a rodeo clown.

You’re holding it wrong

listening togathering training data from their employees? Next Amazon initiative: an Alexa at every water cooler and break area. - Comment on Amazon tech workers leaving for other jobs in response to return to office mandate 2 months ago:
So they don’t have to pay severance or other state penalties for doing an actual layoff. They aren’t thinking of talent with this move.
- Comment on OpenAI Execs Mass Quit as Company Removes Control From Non-Profit Board and Hands It to Sam Altman 2 months ago:
I also love making sweeping generalizations about a stranger’s knowledge on this forum. The smaller the data sample the better!
- Comment on I have no idea how to react to this. 3 months ago:
How we view that past is how we treat the present. The fact Nat Turner’s family has not gotten closure is reflected in our more modern acts of racism.
