Think “Zebra” (NA English) but with an ‘L’.

He’s been implicated in the recent genocide in Myanmar. Facebook cultivated the spread of the racist lies, allowed it to proliferate, spread in the region and then shorted companies operating there. If you know there’s going to be ethnic cleansing in the region, causing outrage and destabilisation, business takes a hit and the options pay off massively. All it takes was the deaths of thousands, but hey Mark has the capital to burn on his AR pet project that nobody wants.

I got my doggos and my girl looking after me. Remember to call home.

Thanks, She’s in and out of stability. With the extent of the frontal lobe damage, I hope she passes, because she won’t be my Mom anymore if she wakes up.

Flouting that you’re incapable of reading a small paragraph of text in order to engage in good faith discussions does not bode well for our future.

I said I agree with you. I never said anything about moral superiority. Why do you create conflict with those that are actively agreeing with you? You just serve the purpose of those that you claim to be against.

I mean absolutely no offence in this response, but if I might articulate myself further. The enemy of progress and the cause of this most egregious regression in The United States is division. Holding idealised standards of how political parties should be in the current political climate, is disingenuous virtue signalling and disregards how politics work(s)ed in America with AIPAC, corporate lobbying and a two party system of First Past The Post elections. I am not telling you you’re wrong, quite the opposite. I agree with you. I am instead asking you to contextualise your (valid) outrage into the broader scope of American politics. If we do not defeat the orange menace, there will never be any progressives holding office, ever. You are right to want further change, but right now our division only serves the ruling class. The fact is, at this moment in history, you cannot get elected to any federal office of the United States without the support AIPAC. It is wrong, it is unjust, it serves the purpose of warmongers, I understand. As does the act of poor Americans purchasing cheap clothes imported from China. Yet, there is no choice for the poor who rely on them to clothe themselves and their children. I see you comment a lot and I am glad to see that, because you obviously care. I recognise your frustrations with Centrist Democrats. Of course they’re impotent, they themselves are multimillionaires, just trying to hold on to their investments and not have their families disappeared. Spineless. Democrats are always targeted for their failings, both by republicans and from within the party and support is often split because of it. While republicans disregard all criticism and stay united through their hatred and obfuscation of the truth. They live with this absurd cognitive dissonance and they still won, because they are united. You can be right about everything, without also serving the purposes of our enemy. If they prevail, when they finally crush every last one of us. It will be because there was no united opposition. It does not matter how correct you are today my friend, being right won’t matter. “I told you so” means nothing in Hell.

I agree with the sentiment, but we need to educate and unite. Not sow further division amongst ourselves.

Smart Technology has always been about removing our ability to effectively communicate with nuance and assess reality that’s what it’s for. Autocorrect so you can’t spell, google maps so you can’t find your way out of a paper bag without them. People’s lexicons have diminished, substantially since 2007. The quantity and variety of expressions used have dropped off majorly. All this connection with people all over the world and we use it to maintain quasi social relationships with people we hardly care about. It’s a joke.
