Same logic as gun fetishists. “I WISH a motherfucker would break in my house!” Craving violence so he can be violent harder. Just give him a reason. Make his day.

It's good that we invented things like "government" and "the economy" but we can't meaningfully participate in them if the people in charge are constantly rubbing in our faces that these things are fake, and in fact you are a naive doofus if you think otherwise. That's a society on life support

I’m sick and goddam tired of this shit. Any time there’s a captive audience, MUST SELL ADS! This is what they’ve always wanted, and we let them build the systems that actually do it. It’s invasive and dehumanizing, and I think it contributes to our collective insanity gizmodo.com/mcdonalds-is...

McDonald’s Is Putting Ads in Its Drive-Thru... and Everywhere Else

The fast-food giant is getting into the advertising business with plans to use customer data to sell targeted ads.

If we let the current crop of "AI" people stay in charge, we are not gonna make it; not because of "superintelligent AI," but because of what the MIT study terms "cognitive surrender": offloading and deterioration of critical skills. And it increasingly feels like that's exactly what they want.

when wikipedia launched, the idea that an encyclopedia could be reliably maintained by the public was a joke. now, it's a marvel, a remarkable resource, virtually the only website that remotely delivers on its potential and practically the last pleasant browsing experience on the internet.

“Abolish ICE” was immediately met with eye rolling condescension and after events proved that policy correct, and support *among Democrats* for it exploded to like 80%, it didn’t move party leaders at all. How is this tenable

We tend to think of capitalism as the final boss that needs defeating, and in many ways it is, but these people who currently control ALL of the capital and the levers of power are not just capitalists -- they're religious zealots who belong to a death cult, and they're fine taking us with them.

This whole AI scrapers going after Cara thing is really driving home how much the mentality of these people is the same as an abuser. The lack of consent excites them. It turns them on. And that's deeply messed up and pathetic.

Because social media is a narcissistic enterprise, I can sense people disengaging on this topic. "I don't fall for the scams, thus it doesn't matter" is the reaction. It does matter. You know why it's hard to get people to care about Trump's corruption? They see Democrats as scammers, too.

I would like to see more companies admit this - being a public company no longer means running a successful, thriving business. It strictly means delivering growth to investors, every single quarter, who do not care at all about the product the company sells or the people who produce it.

Getting real sick of slop midwives pleading for a 'respectful discussion' of AI as relates to the arts. Your use of AI to 'make art' is not respectful. It benefits from stolen art, destroys the planet, and does not make you an artist any more than someone driving 26.2 miles is a marathoner.

Until there's a revolution and a transition to a completely different economic model then we are all stuck in this death spiral. Even the corporations are stuck, because if they don't destroy the world for profit, some other company will. They have a fiduciary responsibility to be fucking evil.
