- Comment on Guardian reporting on antisemitism plan proposed by government. Sweeping proposals including withdrawing funding from unis. Envoy claims that academia is steeped in antisemitism. 1 week ago:
Every neolib corporate-whore government knows that the best way to quell the growing antisemitism Is to equate judaism with a genocidal, colonialist, religious nationalist, fascist nation state… and if you don’t agree, they’ll persecute you for your empathy!
- Comment on ICEBlock climbs to the top of the App Store charts after officials slam it 2 weeks ago:
Everyone who downloads this app will be shortlisted for the gulags. Big tech is working hand in hand with fascism.
- Comment on FCC chair decides inmates and their families must keep paying high phone prices 2 weeks ago:
Corporate dictatorship, doing corporate dictatorship things, because it’s a corporate dictatorship.

This is an ad, and bullshit.
- Comment on The state of YouTube history search 4 weeks ago:
Got em!
- Comment on Amazon Doubles Prime Video Ads to 6 Minutes Per Hour 5 weeks ago:
I’ve only ever used Prime whenever they offer it free or with a cheaper delivery than it costs.
Last time it started showing ads, so I just pirated everything I wanted to watch. I won’t even use it for free anymore, lol.
- Comment on From Hero to Zero (Budget) 5 weeks ago:
Not if they continue using the Nazi propaganda machine.
- Comment on ‘We have a mandate to act’: PM throws open doors to bolder agenda 5 weeks ago:
This masthead reported last week that Australian officials believe biosecurity rules could be tweaked to allow US beef into Australia, a key demand of the Trump administration, without compromising safety.
I will literally never knowingly buy US beef as long as I live. I’d prefer to eat tofu.
- Comment on Amazon vows to crack down on piracy on its Fire TV Stick range 5 weeks ago:
We’re rapidly approaching the time when a raspberry pi and bluetooth remote are the ultimate streaming stick.

Oh… goodie
- Comment on Mozilla is killing Pocket and Fakespot 1 month ago:
Yeah, unless they can be transferred freely between password managers they’re effectively a useless non-starter that multiplies vendor lock in.
- Comment on Hundreds join Sydney Uni Student General Meeting to reject university's new definition of antisemitism 1 month ago:
This is fucking horseshit. Sounds like every decision maker at Universities Australia is a criminally corrupt fascist. Any educator who spent leave over this is unworthy of being an educator.
- Comment on Netflix puts AI ads in paid tier: pirate EVERYTHING at this point... 🏴☠️🏴☠️🏴☠️ 14:55 1 month ago:
False. I completely stopped pirating music 15 years ago, when streaming services came along that had 99% of what I wanted. The moment they enshittify and their value proposition deteriorates, I will sail the high seas again.
- Comment on My password is not accepted because it is too long 2 months ago:
To be fair, 24 is still a secure length for a password, and will probably be for another 5+ years.

The illusion of choice under capitalism

This will surely fix the price of eggs
- Comment on Trump's New Streaming Service Truth+ Is a Conspiracy Theorist's Dream Come True 2 months ago:
They’ve had Fox News for 30 years. His nazi party wouldn’t have won without it.
- Comment on Rian Johnson Says ‘I Don’t’ Agree With Netflix CEO Over Movie Theater Model Being ‘Outdated’: I Want ‘Knives Out 3’ in ‘Many Theaters For as Long as Possible’ 2 months ago:
Streaming quality is pretty dogshit compared to bluray or digital cinemas though. The files are compressed a good 5-10x.
That’s only really matters for a few movies a year.
- Comment on Two arrested following fiery protests in Melbourne CBD 2 months ago:
When they’re also implementing laws that could potentially serve to arbitrarily criminalise peaceful protesting you really need to be asking what is defined as “hate speech”. I did not see this in the article.
Do they mean supporting palestinians = “hate speech”, or do they mean calling for violence against groups of people? I thought that was already illegal, so what does this change?

I wouldn’t be surprised if the first cave paintings were a dick joke
- Comment on Meta could take a $7 billion hit this year because of Trump's tough China tariffs 2 months ago:
Don’t get fooled by the oligarch-owned media. The wealthiest individuals will benefit the most.
Fascism is a fusion of corporation and state (e.g. state-capitalism, like China). The next few years will likely see the largest transfer of wealth in history, and the S&P 500 will consolidate from an ownership of 200 separate conglomerates to 20-50 (example only. not real figures).
- Comment on Elon Musk Cuts Funding for Internet Archive 2 months ago:
They need to federate and decentralize with some sort of p2p protocol, so anyone can donate their spare hard drives for additional redundancy. Seeing up shop in any jurisdiction is a single point of failure.

ConservativesFascists are the same everywhere. - Comment on Trump excludes smartphones, computers, chips from tariffs 3 months ago:
The emperor is a convicted criminal rapist, and probably a pedophile. The trillion dollar fraud is probably one of his lesser crimes.
- Comment on What’s your favorite “flop” of all time? 3 months ago:
Last action hero is a classic. I fucking love that movie. The second half isn’t as good as the first, but it’s not terrible. It was ahead of its time.
- Comment on A lobby group representing Google, Meta, Apple, Amazon, Uber, and X has urged the US Government to take aim at Australian laws 3 months ago:
How long until corporations are arguing that taxation is “discriminatory” and puts their revenue and profitability “at risk”?
The meaning of life is to feed the corporate plutocracy, after all.
- Comment on Who came up with the idea to cut thousands of public service jobs? 3 months ago:
Conservatisms goal everywhere is to destroy representative government — to render it toothless by making it a tool of the oligarchy — and return the peasants to feudalism, ruled by a corporate plutocracy.
That’s why all conservative governments do the exact same thing; starve the beast, defund and privatise.
