So what happened with San Francisco's March for Billionaires

I know I could Google it but I reckon y’all would have better and funnier takes.

“People are just jealous that they are poorer and weaker and uglier,” she said. “We are beautiful. We’re smart. We’re strong. … We are supporting the billionaires, here.”

Wow. Unsurprising, but... yeah. I'm sure many of us aspire to be as beautiful and strong as Musk, Bezos and Zuck, I sure am! /s

And this was a trans woman. Money and the comfort it provides really does make people evil.

The counter-protest was bigger and funnier. Apparently one guy showed up dressed as the Monopoly Man.

Ahhh, the joys of federation! When viewed from my instance, the most recent post in that community is from 4 months ago!

I think this is the post: https://awful.systems/post/7222752

Yeah that's right. discuss.online musta defederated from awful.systems, or it might be a bug...

What is that community supposed to be about? They do a terrible job explaining in the sidebar, and I can't tell if they agree or disagree with the crazy articles and videos they post

Sergio@piefed.social · 2 pts · 207d (2 replies)

Yeah it took me a while to figure out. Basically they're making fun of a specific set of techbros.

It sounds like the community ends up being fairly pro-AI because the zizian-adjacent TESCREAL nutjobs are anti-AI?

It sounds like both sides just suck

Sergio@piefed.social · 1 pts · 206d

I think the TESCREAL people are pro-AI, but tbh I'm not 100% sure.

to be fair there are only a few federation communities with decent sidebars. I actually think its a big sticking point for why its not as popular as people suppose it should. communities on games and such could get very little posts but if the sidebar gave info about wikis and builds and such it would get more popular fast.
