Literally just slavery with extra steps.
The rich want slaves but they don’t want to see or interact with them. Creepy CEO even made a point to show off how weak robot 1-X is, so the slaves better not get any ideas, either.

It was an ex and one he proclaimed to be toxic at that, so I’d be more concerned for the party that didn’t consent to have their story shared or turned into a meme.

*People" You know it’s funny, it shot up to around ten upvotes, then suddenly it was -2 and now it’s where it’s at, so I think one person with a few alts just took what I said personally. And you know how it is, people see the down votes before they read the comment and form an opinion that shapes how they read the comment, if they read it at all. I don’t mind, it doesn’t matter, and we’re all just here to shoot the shit anyway. I’m well aware of how amazing I am at word choice and getting my point across (/s), and I know people tend to get defensive when you insinuate the bad thing they did when they were drunk was more about them than the alcohol. It’s a point I stand by, though. I used to drink a lot, and I’m not proud of all of my actions from that time period, but I do own them. And I know the terrible things that my supposed friend did nearly every time we drank was just him showing me how he truly feels and wants to act, and I will absolutely crucify myself on this hill before I let people like that blame the alcohol rather than self-reflect. But I’m glad to know there are others out there like you who know that no one and nothing is responsible for their actions but themselves. Personal responsibility seems to be fading out in our society.

Sounds like cope, or we’re talking about different kinds of actions, but okay. I’ve seen a lot of drunk people do a lot of dumb and horrifying shit and none of it could be classified as instinctual behavior, it was definitely just the shit they wanted to do sober. But I have also done a few minor dumb things while drunk, like throwing up off a balcony; that isn’t something I’ve ever thought about doing sober, but in the moment it happened before my rational brain caught up to stop me, so that sounds more like what you’re talking about, and I’d be inclined to agree to that extent, though I didn’t jump off the balcony afterward, so I don’t see being drunk making people answer the call to the void. I’m talking about people who suddenly become violent or overly sexual when they’re drunk. That’s all inhibition loss showing us the real person without the filters. They absolutely are hidden desires.

BS. Drinking lowers your inhibitions, it doesn’t make you do anything you wouldn’t want to.

Oh! And I forgot that tiktok came back the very next day, still before Trump’s inauguration, thanking Trump.
- Comment on Trump says TikTok should be tweaked to become “100% MAGA” 4 weeks ago:
This was in January, when Tiktok was set to be banned (by Trump in his first term, but it kept getting extended, then magically Trump saved Tiktok (from himself)! And Tiktok did everything it could to make him look like a hero. Also used it a bit during 2024 for my business, and let me tell you, say something leftist = banned. Mention Palestine= banned. Criticize Trump = banned. Report hate speech = “We found nothing wrong”. Report fake news = “We found nothing wrong”. Report violent calls to action against the left = “We found nothing wrong”. So yeah I could go on, but it’s very obviously been a maga platform since at least 2024. But nothing is ever enough for them.

Sounds like nearly 35000 workers should walk out and remind their employers that this was the compromise.

I mean yes, but it’s not like they use an extra drop for every drop conserved, it’s still okay to not be wasteful.

Reminds me that if the Sliders found their way home recently they’d think they had stumbled upon yet another fascist alternative earth and continue looking.
I wish I could join them at this point.

- Comment on Do you think conservative feel the same need to burn it all down as everyone else felt when trump won again? 1 month ago:
Many years ago I got banned from r/conservative for asking where exactly conservation came into play as part of their ideology. On its face, being conservative sounds awesome. I want to conserve this planet’s ecology. I want to conserve human rights. I have never seen any conservative American politician in the last thirty some-odd years try to conserve anything. It would be much more apt to call them regressionists, but they’re so much worse than that.
But since you willingly identify yourself as a conservative, and you’re here, what is your take?

I’m not sure it’s possible to put it all back together again even if it’s possible to put dems in charge.
We crossed this threshold on day 3.

Okay, I suppose I was too vague.
Is it [Richard’s comments] even close to [ being as bad as] publicly supporting a genocide? Hell no.
I’m saying Richards may be a better person than Seinfeld, but I wouldn’t excuse his words or actions because they’re not something a non-racist would ever even think to do or say.
Hope that is clear now.
- Comment on No words 1 month ago:
Also a hell no. In fact what are you talking about? What did I say that you feel implied that?

- Comment on That's an impressive drop. Any ideas why? 1 month ago:
People are stretched as thin as can be and stressed beyond belief. Then during their free time they are inundated by algorithms that are made to keep them scrolling and to feel as many negative emotions as possible. Then their food is full of hormones and their food wrappers and cosmetics and toiletries are all full of phthalates and microplastics and undisclosed hormone disrupting chemicals. All in a progressively protestant society that increasingly isolates us from one another and shames us for our natural urges and feelings and bodies, all in the name of selling us unnatural solutions for these “problems.”
It’s a mystery though.

Is it an important distinction or an opinion? If it’s an important distinction then maybe explaining that distinction would help?
