Yeah the whole “STEM” thing is dumb and anti-science. This corny meme implies that philosophy majors becomes flat-earthers. It’s a great example of the STEM mindset.
STEM is just a product.
- Comment on Cause and Effect 6 days ago:
Yeah basic english is extremely complicated with a vast vocabulary and syntax, while the quadratic formula is an extremely basic computation.
- Comment on Cause and Effect 6 days ago:
Because they’re not rich.
- Comment on Cause and Effect 6 days ago:
Academia is completely captured by capitalism. That’s why “scientists” can’t/won’t/don’t go after their masters. How can people oppose genocide when they’re working to build the weapons of genocide? And a society that accepts genocide will accept anything.
- Comment on TIL "Cognitive Sovereignty," which argues that modern psychopolitics—subtle control via digital platforms—exploits attention, supported by a 2025 PNAS Nexus study 2 weeks ago:
Legit. I didn’t know about this term either. But I’ve ranted to friends about how advertisements are involuntary time-theft and mind control.
Capital is constantly trying to insert its propaganda into our lives. 100%.

Yes and there is already a sun shining above ground so global warming is no problem either… jfc.

Nothing better than destroying the planet for a quick buck off a cheap grift.
Chinese capitalism <—> Planetary destruction <—> USA capitalism

Nice to see this genocidal dumpster going up in even hotter flames.

Who upvotes these phony MRA tales? Give me an effing break.
- Comment on A conundrum 4 weeks ago:
“Landlords” are probably one of the oldest grifts in the book.
- Comment on Anon doesn't like AI 4 weeks ago:
They’ve already made a shitload of money. Now they’re consolidating into violent political control.
And when bubble pops, the rich will be paid immediately via an inflation tax on the poor as per usual…
- Comment on Scientific unprogress... 4 weeks ago:
“Scientists”, media, politicians, etc… today: I’ve created an artificial intelligence!!!
Actual scientists: The planet is being destroyed.
People: I don’t know who to believe.
Seriously “science” is so full of grifters that I’m not surprised flat-earthism is flourishing.

I like this image but it’s a shame that it’s destroying so many artists’ jobs in the sushi skateboarding industry… \s

Legit but let’s be even more real. It’s the US’s insanity that caused 911.
- Comment on It's been downhill since 2020 4 weeks ago:
I occasionally accidentally see YouTube “recommendations” and it’s usually unhinged right wing shit with millions of views.
As someone who regularly watches my youtube recs, I never see this. Maybe it’s because youtube knows my preferences from watching their recommendations…
On the other hand youtube is definitely trash that promotes fascism. So I’m not doubting you either.
- Comment on It's been downhill since 2020 4 weeks ago:
If you think fascism started with Bush, then you missed about 400 years of history.
- Comment on It's been downhill since 2020 4 weeks ago:
Handouts to the rich (aka “bailouts”) are a major foundation of the casino economy. No beginning and no end under capitalism.
- Comment on It's been downhill since 2020 4 weeks ago:
since before we were born
Yeah since they invaded and genocided the americas.
- Comment on It's been downhill since 2020 4 weeks ago:
Your mistake is viewing trump not as the obvious fash continuation of the state/capitalism but as some kind of aberration.
- Comment on It's been downhill since 2020 4 weeks ago:
It’s whatever year that the oppression affecting the less privileged finally reached you.
- Comment on It's been downhill since 2020 4 weeks ago:
It was the year before europeans arrived.
- Comment on It's been downhill since 2020 4 weeks ago:
These kind of lib delusions are how we got here.
- Comment on Say hello to Bary 5 weeks ago:
I was going to complain about the use of “barycenter” instead of the more commonly known “center of mass”. But after some searching, I guess barycenter is more obscure because it’s more specific. I’m ok with that.
- Comment on MIT Study Finds AI Use Reprograms the Brain, Leading to Cognitive Decline 5 weeks ago:
A major problem with the “AI” grift is that it spawns so many dependent grifts like this one. “Science” under capitalism is not actually science.

Wait until you hear what empire is doing with facial recognition in palestine, etc…
- Comment on An activist has started using AI to identify ICE agents beneath their masks 5 weeks ago:
Are you talking about ICE? Yes, they have attacked many non-combatants and ruined many lives.
- Comment on An activist has started using AI to identify ICE agents beneath their masks 5 weeks ago:
Yes, the “AI” grift is annoying and completely untrustable.
As usual, there’s zero “AI” involved here.
It’s just facial recognition. Just more statistics on data.
