Modern internet is impossible to use without a copious amount of plugins. Every website has some fucking cancer that needs to be removed in order for a site to be even remotely useful.

There is a very big difference, that they don’t understand, between “a scientist said” and “scientific consensus”. This (sometimes purposeful) misunderstanding comes from their fundamental refusal to understand what science actually is.
It saddens and frightens me, that so many people in the world are so open about how the only reason they don’t commit violence is fear of consequences. I bummed out both by how many people like that there are, and how normal they feel uttering psychohorrors like that
You wouldn’t read them anyway so who cares
Republicans at the voting booth: I would like to vote for the candidate that assured my biases the most, now who was that one guy that Fox News showed me yesterday…
Meanwhile the left on social media: Your strategy of voting pales in comparison with my strategy of ranting on social media, you imbecile, you rube. Now, why don’t Democrats don’t listen to me!

2·4 days agoIt might be you just got unlucky. Mine is still going strong all this years, and I use it often.
You’re right! He said that the magnets are new thing and he personally doesn’t know how they work. It’s so much better, it almost makes perfect sense, very smart president, bigly smart.
You fucking wish
No, there is no medical injections, they only exist in badly written novels. In reality yeah, people will talk, they will talk so much you wouldn’t be able to shut them up. What you can’t have is the reliable information, people will tell you everything they think you want to hear so you wouldn’t worsen their wellbeing. And you can’t know at all, did they tell you the truth, or what they think you want them to say. You might as well ask an LLM for information. The only difference is, LLM is not an entity and can’t feel pain, and that’s probably the main purpose of torture.
There is nothing that can be improved by majority fighting tooth and nails to survive. What you need is generations of people who know what the better world looks like, and who’s will wasn’t destroyed by absolute power of a fascist boot on the neck. Accelerationism never was a viable idea, it was always a ruse to make less empathetic among the left to fight for the same cause fascists are fighting for.
You know nothing about what Russia is like, and it seems you also have no idea how US works.
You can’t build shit for shit, when you’re being actively hunted by ICE for thought crimes, and like third of the Americans don’t know where their next meal will come from.
In order to build something you need to have a foundation, which you can’t do in a crisis. Democratic party as it is is not a party that people are exited about, and they need to be changed one way or another, but you can only do that if there is no Republicans actively hunting you for sports, and the way US is setup right now, you can either have one or another. Denying that is actively dangerous, acting as if it’s not the case brings objectively horrifying results.

That’s the whole thing with torture. It demonstrably doesn’t work, but people who use it aren’t the people who’re concerned with scientific reality
I work for a European company, and we had a major US car company as a client. 6 month ago they abruptly stopped working with us and fired a bunch of their engineers, and now they hired again and are trying to negotiate a new deal with us.
Your story might be an answer to why

politics •Angry Trump Snaps at GOPers as Scale of Losses Sinks In: “Dead Party”
192·10 days agoDon’t be mistaken, Mandani’s win is not America’s win, it’s NY win. America as a whole is way more stupid and way more evil than that. Hell, even broad democratic voters are worse than that, Bernie lost popular vote on primaries twice afterall.
And shooting at ICE will make things substantially, distopially worse. It will either bring the true fascist regime of which this one is a pale shadow, or a civil war, and a civil war is basically an end of at least two generations, even if “good guys” win. However bad a life of a regular person is in the US right now, and it is bad for a lot of people, I can absolutely assure you, it’s nothing compared to life of a person in a country where civil war is happening. Or full blown authoritarianism for that matter.

13·12 days agoIf there is something that Americans love to do more than bitching about their elections being rigged, that’s not actually participating in said elections and waiting that someone will do voting for them, while they sit around and call everyone who actually votes “libs”. That and daydreaming about murdering people during their inevitable revolution/civil war.
That doesn’t mean elections aren’t actually rigged, they very much are.

12·12 days agoAmerica has pockets of progressiveness so to speak, that’s why once in a generation you can get occasional mayoral wins and such. But they never grow into anything bigger, for many many reasons, from the fact that America is a stupid country full of stupid people, to the fact that lefties will always chose infighting and purity checks over pragmatism, to the fact that significant portion left-leaning people are extremely anti-democracy and use “voting” as a slur word.
Doesn’t mean nothing can be done, but you also can’t just ignore all of that





The problem here is that some datacenters are useful, and most of the companies that are poising our minds, the internet, and the planet, are also doing some good thing that society kind of depends on.
