@alex I want every single one of them to add me and my instance to them. Whatever ideology it is, I've got it, so put me down as the racist SJW trans paedophile or whatever I need to be to get blocked by all the people who want to block people solely because they disagree.
Then I'll only have cool people left on my fediverse.

The corporate plan:
1. Advocate for less regulation so they can become massive
2. Advocate for more regulation so they can destroy the competition
3. Advocate for special protection because they're the only ones that can do what they do because there's no competition
And people fall for it hook, line, and sinker every time.

@urbanroman @pluralistic The worst thing is that you repeal the regulation limiting the behaviour of the banks, but then you keep the regulation insuring everything the banks do using taxpayer money.
By the way, all these companies that were spending the extra money during the good times on stock buybacks instead of building a cushion or investing in capital equipment or people are getting an on the books and off the books bailout to the tune of trillions of dollars right now. If the American people got the kind of bail-outs these companies are getting, most of them wouldn't need to worry about student loan forgiveness because they'd just pay off whatever loans they have left.
The master manipulators employed by these top companies have learned how to set the frame so that the rich getting overwhelming advantages is something they grudgingly accept rather than something they overwhelmingly desire and actively seek out.

@alex Turn on your AC to dehumidify, but keep the temperature knob somewhat on the warm setting.
@AstaMcCarthy @aral I'm always a huge fan of forcing poor people to choose between heat and food while not affecting rich people at all.
They can just sit back and think about their crime of being poor. Maybe they'll make the moral choice and die of starvation or freezing and help save the planet! That way the clearly morally superior rich and powerful people can have more to consume without the poors getting in the way!

@metokurist Wasn't until Jordan Peterson explained it in detail that I got how it worked. Since capitalism makes people so much better off and communism was proven to make people so much worse off, they had to switch tack and instead of focusing on class warfare between the rich and the poor they focused on warfare between races, sexes, gender identities, etc. and just rejiggered their existing bad ideas to match that instead.
Ironically, even that isn't working well. As we see, latinos, asians, even arabs and some blacks are slowly being considered "white" because the fact that they're able to succeed damages the narrative.

I shall continue to pursue social justice and let marginalized people test.... I mean take with no strings attached.... My dose of the untested liability waived vaccine

The correct word to use is "Jews" talking about a plural of Jew. The apostrophe is used when sounds or letters are being skipped such as "where is" becoming "where's" or "where did" becoming "where'd". In the alternative, you can sometimes use an apostrophe as a possessive, such as writer's tears.
The caption using the one syntax would be interpreted as "goodbye jew is goodbye" which isn't meaningful, or "goodbye to the goodbye owned by the jews" which is a bizarre statement.
Moreover, nouns and adjectives referring to religious or national groups are always capitalized in English.
So as a grammar Nazi I have no choice but to invade Poland.

@alex Unlike most prejudices, misogyny will increase once you lose your virginity and spend more time around women.
If this guy thinks he's going to become less toxic once he gets laid, then the blackest pill for him will be pink.
(No offense, ladies. You know I love you)

@eff Everyone supported xmpp, right up until everyone got off of xmpp, then nobody supported xmpp.
"I've been killing slimes for 300 years and maxxed out my level" is an anime this season. I read a few of the light novels, it's incredibly wholesome. I'm looking forward to some wholesome fun!
@fribbledom Consumer grade electric cars.
As soon as the first wave of "Hey, you have to buy a used car worth of new batteries or you can park that car forever" kicks in, I suspect that'll be that.
