Yup, the problem is firmly the system, but suggesting a worldwide change to socialism/communism is less “palatable” and believable by the average person.
So “eat the rich” is a decent compromise for a comment not intended to approach any sort of complex answer, while still being a move in a better direction than suggesting things to continue as they are.
I’ll be amazed if he doesn’t fuck it up by eventually blowing up and deflect accusations on his podcast in the next 3 months or so. I’d (almost) give him a prize if he coils hold it up for this long.
While I agree, corporations shouldn’t make bucks on knowledge(sorta) they basically eavesdropped and violated the privacy of millions of people for.
AI solutions are made from people’s ideas, and should be freely accessible by the people by definition. It not being sustainable as a business model is also a feature in this case, since there’d be no intrinsic incentive to steal data and violate privacy.
If we account to impacts on wildlife as well, there’s displacement of species, stressors to local fauna, and the innumerable roadkills as well
This thing will also possibly ban books that weren’t ever written. Just as dumb and full of BS as the Republicans that want to use it smh
That’s not from bad apps… If anything this new policy will make me use the mobile website instead of the app.
I’d also consider switching banks if it isn’t too much of a hassle. They clearly can’t invest well in terms of security for their users.
Every day we’re here just to learn billionaires & families should be crushed and their wealth redistributed amongst third world countries.

Naw, they’re gonna go back to playing Shovel Knight on one of the next WAN(ks) or so
Overwork is also one form of workplace abuse. It just makes the matters worse
Should be pinned ngl
So damn based. Makes me NOT wanna pirate their games. Hell, I’d even purchase even if I wouldn’t play it (if I could rn, but currently I’ve got hefty cat veterinary bills to pay).
Edit: OH MATE! THEY’RE THE POSTAL STUDIO! Goddamn I played it so damn much in my early teens. Goddamn I gotta pay my bills faster!
Gotta love me some fire and brimstone.
For holy heavens, he’s striving to hit every 'Murican stereotype
Almost like an “intentional and kinda aggressive lib takeover”. I wouldn’t put it past the admins to try monetizing their users at some point.
Lemmy is advancing so much and so fast even Spez has competition rising up to the challenge.
I don’t have any issues about lemmy.world existing though, it keeps some users I wouldn’t like very much farther away from me. I consider it as a “buffer zone” of sorts.
I did it the moment they decided not to defederate from Meta. I don’t like admins who can’t take decisive actions to protect their users (and apparently seem to bend their knees to any big corpo out there)
It’s not necessary to have a military base or troops in order to threaten the sovereignty of a country. This is not only a bad faith argument, but it’s incredibly braindead as well.
And if you’re insistent on semantics, yes, the USA deployed troops for a “joint training” with Brazilian troops during (far-right USA backed) Bolsonaro’s government.
In 2014, Brazil, the coup on Dilma Roussef from the Worker’s Party received backing from the USA. In 2018, the unlawful conviction of Lula from the same party, was not only backed but also had strategical support from the USA through instructions on how then judge Sergio Moro should conduct the trial and how he should work with and favour the prosecution, even by the use of fake witnesses and evidence.
They also had the heaviest of hands against Nicolas Maduro in Venezuela a few years later.
So the USA never stopped meddling and forcing their way on South America, really.
Redistributing the wealth of billionaires is already part of a good structural change, it’ll remove from them power they’d use to continue the exploitation of the people. You can substitute “crush” by destitute and incarcerate them if you’d prefer, as long as the wealth isn’t on the hands of the few anymore.
