This post is way too meta.
- Comment on Dell said return to the office or else—nearly half of workers chose “or else” - Workers stayed remote even when told they could no longer be promoted. 6 days ago:
Well, the revolt I was more or less referring to would be against private/public business.
We need to as a society start dictating how much things should cost.
Like inflation for example wouldn’t exist if as a whole population we simply didn’t pay the difference in increased price.
Business would eventually start pricing their good and services to where people wanted to pay as long as they paid.
- Comment on Why not serve fried chicken on Juneteenth? How is it different from serving corned beef on St. Patrick’s day? 1 week ago:
I’m a white man from Ukraine migrated to America in 1989.
I love fried chicken, I live in the south of America the deep South and man oh man do we have good fried chicken!
Fried chicken is a universally loved dish and is only stereotyped by the most ignorant of people!
Not only should fried chicken be served for Juneteenth it should be served on every holiday as well!

Remember people, the power is in the workforce.
The greatest con ever conducted was to convince the largest population of people on the face of the planet, the middle class that we have no power.
We hold literally all the power.
All we have to do is collectively as a society stand up to these corporations and tell them that we will work only on our terms not on theirs.

- Comment on I'm an empath 2 weeks ago:
My mother does this. She asserts a random made up statement as fact and immediately believes it to be true.
It’s infuriating! She has no actual evidence to back any of it up! Not even circumstantial evidence.

This makes sense. Yes. And yes.

I’m reading this as “8 people have half of all the money in the world” is that correct?

- Comment on [deleted] 4 weeks ago:
God cast out the fallen angel from heaven and placed him in charge of hell so Lucifer could continue to spread evil around the world. God is the reason evil exists in this world.
Any being godlike or otherwise that can cast somebody that they supposedly love into a place like hell is an inherently evil being.
More atrocities have been committed in the name of God than to anything else on the face of this planet to this very day.
The idea of a jadeo-Christian God is single-handedly the most destructive Force humanity has ever created.

- Comment on Marvels Rivals requires creators to sign a contract that removes your right to give a negative review to access the playtest 1 month ago:
That’s not how that works. The contract is in and of itself a violation of the first amendment. Therefore it has no legal binding. They wouldn’t be able to remove the offending media from any platform or sue for damages if someone breached the contract.
If there are internal ramifications due to a breach of contract that’s something that could be handled internally, such as the content creator not being offered any review materials in the future. But a contract wouldn’t be necessary for that either way.
Moreover, specifically for satire, there are whole acts in the law advocating for it. There is absolutely nothing, no clause or agreement that would ever prohibit someone from publicly satiring any given entity. Regardless of any contract.
- Comment on Marvels Rivals requires creators to sign a contract that removes your right to give a negative review to access the playtest 1 month ago:
The point of the contract is that if one is in breach the company can sue for damages and potentially remove the offending media.
The suing process would be through a legal body such as a court system, in this case federal court since the media is on the Internet, therefore the contract doesn’t hold any legal binding. No federal court would uphold a contract that violates the first amendment.
Contracts adhere to laws and rules just like any other legal document. You can’t just put whatever you want into a contract and have it be binding.
- Comment on Marvels Rivals requires creators to sign a contract that removes your right to give a negative review to access the playtest 1 month ago:
They literally can’t do that. Satire is a protected right under the first amendment. Anyone can make public satirical remarks regardless of signing that contract.
- Comment on Marvels Rivals requires creators to sign a contract that removes your right to give a negative review to access the playtest 1 month ago:
That contract has absolutely no legal bearing in any way shape or form.
Let them go to court over this, get thrown out and counter sued.

- Comment on What happens to those who are severely disabled while in prison? 1 month ago:
In the federal system they have prisons with built in long-term medical to facilities.
They’re able to provide every kind of medical treatment and procedure necessary even hospice.
However, if the prison doesn’t want to deal with treatment due to financial concerns they’ll do what’s called a " compassionate release" usually for terminally ill prisoners.
It looks better for the prison if one of their guests don’t die while incarcerated.
- Comment on [Serious] Why do so many people seem to hate veganism? 1 month ago:
How can you hate a concept that doesn’t even make any sense.
It’s like saying I hate the idea of the color red.
Also, I’m perfectly fine with bees. We need more bees.
- Comment on [Serious] Why do so many people seem to hate veganism? 1 month ago:
If you have the ability to hate an entire demographic of people based on the actions of a few in that demographic you really need to take a moment for some self-reflection.
- Comment on [Serious] Why do so many people seem to hate veganism? 1 month ago:
No body hates veganism as a concept in and of itself. People dislike vegans that think they’re better than everyone else because they eat no animal product.

- Comment on Why can't people make ai's by making a neuron sim and then scaling it up with a supercomputer to the point where it has a humans number of neurons and then raise it like a human? 1 month ago:
You wouldn’t need to raise it as a baby.
The reason that humans come out as babies in the first place is because if we came out with fully developed brains, our heads would be crushed through the birth canal and the mother would probably die. Therefore, our brains have to mature as we get older which of course takes decades.
Growing up is a biological imperative.
In terms of artificial intelligence or large language models, there would be no need to actually grow in physical size.
Which solidifies the point a person already made here is that it would be a fundamentally different kind of intelligence one that simply needs data input And will not need the ability to grow up as a child would.
