It’s kind of a bummer. Aliens and Bilderbergers and Government Mind Control used to be fun little thought experiments to smoke a J and play what-if with your friends; but you can’t even bring that stuff up anymore without someone thinking you’re serious and bringing up adrenochrome or (((Globalists)))

This timeline sucks, I want to go back to when everyone knew the X-Files was a TV show and fascists kept their brainrot on AM radio.

I feel like like the QAnon stuff swept up huge swaths of otherwise unconnected conspiracy theorists. Flat earth, chemtrails, aliens, all the “classic” conspiracies just kind of got co-opted and folded into the big crazy tent of insane people.

Brother you haven’t said anything except “both sides are the same” which makes your intentions real clear.

Yes, she was.

No you don’t understand, America = bad. If someone is doing something wrong it must be Americas fault or I must find some way to shoehorn politics into every conversation.

My LinkedIn has a real picture and it’s linked on my resume, but I’d never put my picture ON the actual resume. That just seems like a bad idea all around.

Of course, do you think people just go on the internet and tell lies?

They’re striking for higher wages, I doubt any of them care about the specific work.

If a company is unable to pay their employees a livable wage they shouldn’t exist. And IMO the “gig economy” takes away the bargaining power of workers, these companies exist purely as middlemen to extract profit on transactions. They’re leeches on society, just another solution looking for a made up problem.

The programmers and customer service people? Probably not, those are valuable skills though and those people won’t have a hard time finding work.

If you mean drivers, they don’t employee any drivers. They have a lot of 1099 contractors that aren’t fairly compensated.

The price of everything is increasing and none of the profits are going to low wage employees. If I’m going to pay $20 for a Value Meal I’d rather it go to the cook or the delivery driver but it doesn’t, the fees go to the corporations in charge. The best, most effective way for me to protest is by not using their services.

Stop using those services completely if you really want to help.

5/10 even after reading this thread and looking at eyes and earlobes.

Who lived there pre-1930?

Well we should probably keep those kids from listening to his racist rants or watching his sex tape or watching his horrible reality tv show then. Wouldn’t want “the children” to learn he’s a piece of shit or something I guess?

Pick better heros kids.

We’d hoped lemmy would be able to have an actual conversation but it seems like a lot of the pedantic “well akshually” terminal-online redditards came along. It’s useless trying to argue with them, they’re incapable of nuance and reality due to a lack of life experience.

What kid is even looking up the Hulk Hogan these days though, dudes like 70 and hasn’t been relevant in the 21st century. Him being racist shouldn’t surprise anyone.

Nah they said they were all domestic terrorists at CPAC 2022. No reason not to take them at their word.

They’re domestic terrorists seeking to install theocratic rule in the U.S. in complete disregard of democracy. They should be dragged into the street and dealt with like the fundamentalists and terrorists they are.

You have to space them out or post them to different (relevant) places or it just becomes spam at some point.

No worries, if that’s the ruling Biden can just stay in office and jail his political opponents. These idiots have absolutely no self-awareness and will say whatever they need to in the moment.

Relax and push back against it, your partner will be done long before sunrise.

Wait until you learn about Bibi.
