I didn’t realize I’d wandered into the angry lioness’ den. My bad. I’ve used Lemmy via Voyager since its inception and there’s really no obvious clue what community you’re in unless you really look for it. The vitriol towards all men is a strong clue though, going forward. Community blocked. Sorry, ladies. And “violet” 🙄
I’m convinced “violet” is a young boy in his early teens who gets off pretending to be a thirsty “woman” on the internet. Based solely on… Everything they’ve ever posted.
Of course not. But it does feel a little silly when there are town-sized data centres being built in every direction and billionaires are just “choosing” to break all laws. Meta’s got gas turbines running to power theirs and they just said they’re gonna do it for another year. Who’s gonna stop ‘em? Everyone is too busy working and trying to survive to stop them from pretty literally torching our futures and especially our children’s futures.
Things will need to get pretty bad before we see any kind of justice or change of direction, I fear ☹️
I don’t know about y’all but the more I hear about this China, the more I like ‘em… Except that time I learned about genocide. But, they have some good ideas.
Woah, spoiler alert. Now I know there’s an epic last sentence that I won’t be able to take my mind off of until I finally get to it and it’s definitely nothing like my brain had hyped it up to be.
Unironically, durh 😜 Two notoriously difficult fields in which to find stable work vs. studying to become one of few humans who will ever understand a burgeoning industry in its infancy?
I am in a similar boat though (aren’t we all). Maybe AI can teach me enough about itself for me to become useful to it…
It does appear to be working for them. I’m not sure it’s so much “flooding the zone” as it is “shitting the bed and not giving a fuck who else might be trying to sleep in it”. The Confederates collectively figured out that none of the laws have any teeth if they control all three branches, so why the hell not? It doesn’t help that they’re all like 80 years old and nothing they do will harm the one person they love more than anything or anyone else: themselves.
Voting isn’t enough. We need a lot more organization. A union of the people so we can act as one and pretty much get whatever the fuck we want so long as masses agree. It was supposed to be Democracy but that’s been corrupted so something fundamental would need to change. I think if we had more open tech (and we will) we could build the tools we need to better organize. The ruling class has every advantage, except the numbers.
I think they’re a bunch of non-military bros who got the reins to military firepower and thought they could scare off actual soldiers by wielding that firepower like “badasses”. Turns out: nope. Just a war crime.
It’s sexist in exactly the same way this community is sexist. In that it isn’t, really. But maybe a little?
It should be above it. The post comes first, elicits desire to comment, and community name can be missed entirely.

Oh whoops. I just browse my home feed and comment on stuff. Didn’t realize what community I was commenting on. Carry on.

We’re all here for that. Just a matter of getting it started…
Of course not. It’s not enough people recycling their grocery bags.
I see multiple articles a day with headlines like, “upon closer inspection, conditions at American concentration camps are not great.”
Isn’t this fairly verifiable via satellite imagery though?

I thought it was Bavarian Motor Works or something? Logo was a propeller? No? This is what I’ve always known it to be.

The O.G. cuck.

Oh thank God. I was worried about them in all of this.
Indeeeed
Sounds like you didn’t get there quickly enough.
