  uwu whats dis

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨What does the acronym MAGA stand for? (wrong answers only)⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  Largely uneducated, virtually zero population diversity, heavily indoctrinated in religion, victims of extreme propaganda

  And to top it all off, they haven been given platforms to spew their hateful views for most of the world to see, and the algorithm for all of these platforms pushes it to as wide of an audience as possible

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Dubiousness⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m not gay but that would probably do it for me tbh

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Uber is letting women avoid male drivers and riders in the US⁩ ⁨⁨6⁩ ⁨days⁩ ago⁩:

  This male victimhood complex is so fucking cringe man.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Uber is letting women avoid male drivers and riders in the US⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Oi vey the drama

  No one is saying that false allegations of sexual assault don’t matter.

  Nothing would make billionaires change their tune about buddying up to this authoritarian regime faster than his actions leading to loss of profits

  Imagine if Iran took out crucial infrastructure for AWS

  'he raped me! ’

  those words to a cop can essentially suspend a man’s life for an indeterminate amount of time. does it happen where men rape women? yeah, and it’s fucked… do some women use it as a weapon to get back at someone/ruin someone’s life? you bet your ass they do…

  Do you have any evidence at all that this happens even semi-regularly?

  why can’t it be fair? why should a guy be forced to potentially endure that scenario when they hailed a cab

  Because it doesn’t happen anywhere near as regularly as you’re trying to make it sound.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Uber is letting women avoid male drivers and riders in the US⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I only added it because I wasn’t sure if there was a population of man-children who feel slighted every time women get anything even remotely positive on Lemmy like there was on Reddit

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨X and TikTok algorithms favour the far right at the expense of moderate parties⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I don’t want any social media homie

  You’re barking up the wrong tree

  Take a chill pill

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨X and TikTok algorithms favour the far right at the expense of moderate parties⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  More than one thing can be bad about the internet at the same time.

  Furthermore, the fascists are the one that put the algorithms in place. It’s the same problem.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Uber is letting women avoid male drivers and riders in the US⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  I’m done with you homie.

  You’re not a victim no matter how hard you try to be one.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Uber is letting women avoid male drivers and riders in the US⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  No one is saying that men cannot be victims of harassment or assault.

  However it is objectively true that women deal with this problem in much higher quantities than men do.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Uber is letting women avoid male drivers and riders in the US⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Because you’re bending over backwards to try to show men as the victims of rampant sexual harassment when it overwhelmingly occurs to women.

  Men are not being victimized here, women are just getting relief

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Uber is letting women avoid male drivers and riders in the US⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  What does this even mean lmao

  I just don’t see this need to want to be a victim.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Uber is letting women avoid male drivers and riders in the US⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  As much as you want to try to paint men as the victims, they’re just not.

  Yes, it happens. No it doesn’t not happen nearly as frequently.

  This issue is extremely skewed toward women.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Uber is letting women avoid male drivers and riders in the US⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  This is the shit that makes men look bad.

  Men absolutely do not experience sexual harassment at the same level that women do.

  It’s not close at all.

  Why can’t we just let the women have a dub without being all “buhhh what about da men???”

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Uber is letting women avoid male drivers and riders in the US⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Probably gonna get flak for this, but as a man, I have no issues if women want to stick with other women and I don’t particularly care if I have the option to pick whatever driver I want.

  Obviously weirdness and sexual misconduct can occur to both men and women from both men and women, but it’s naive as hell to pretend that men being weird or sexual towards women isn’t the most common.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨X and TikTok algorithms favour the far right at the expense of moderate parties⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Algorithmic content is arguably the worst thing to come out of the internet.

  It has made it much easier for these companies to manipulate what people see and feed into their fears and delusions.

  Nah. Mass surveillance.

  It is still absolutely insane to me that people have conversations with these LLMs.

  I will never understand

  This is the company that definitely won’t mishandle your personal information needed for age authentication btw

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Oh dear - ARC Raiders was logging your private Discord chats⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  Whataboutism

  Those statements can be true and this would still be shitty and unethical

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨A Wired analysis shows that ICE & CBP have collectively spent at least $515 million on products from Microsoft, Amazon, Google, and Palantir in the last few years alone.⁩ ⁨⁨1⁩ ⁨week⁩ ago⁩:

  We’re reaching the end game of late stage capitalism where the government and the biggest companies on the planet come together to cement their positions of power.

  They will work together to ensure that neither one can be dethroned

  Ok

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Quit ChatGPT: right now! Your subscription is bankrolling authoritarianism | Rutger Bregman⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  True, but getting more expensive to do so by the day because of these AI companies.

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨Quit ChatGPT: right now! Your subscription is bankrolling authoritarianism | Rutger Bregman⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Often both

  This is such a bleak time for tech enthusiasts.

  It really feels like every single major tech company is making either absolutely moronic or completely evil choices

  You are just stuck choosing between different flavors of shit

• ⁨Comment⁩ on ⁨I'm struggling to think of any online services for which I'd be willing to verify my identity or age⁩ ⁨⁨2⁩ ⁨weeks⁩ ago⁩:

  Maybe in alternate timeline where tech companies have historically acted ethically.

  In this timeline where each new company and/or ceo is less ethical than the last, I know that any type of identification will be mismanaged at best or used maliciously at worst
