We are not different, that is just an excuse. I have grandkids already for Christ sake.
We should not be encouraging social disconnection in our society and become dependent on machines.
I get it, they are more convenient for YOU. But at what cost to everyone else?
Like I was saying, just because we have a bunch of people who have not been socialized doesn’t mean we should be encouraging it with technology.
You say your old, but you personalize like a teenager still.
- Comment on 2 weeks ago:
We should definitely change our whole society because a minority have not been socialized properly.

No rapist can ever complain again. After all, if they just apply themselves they to can become POTUS regardless of raping hundreds of women and children.
Rape is no longer something that ruins your life, just the life of those you rape - Brought to you by the Republican Party.
- Comment on Why do companies always need to grow? 4 weeks ago:
Companies grow and shrink from a combination of market and internal forces. Companies sometimes need to shrink or grow. The economy and culture are constantly changing. That is why it is very hard to predict where things will go.
Your example of having a company with a set amount of employees that produce a set product happens pretty frequently. A lot of employee owned or family businesses are this way.
I think most of you post can be summed up with why do investors want more and more money. The answer is because they can. If your company owes money to investors then they will beholden to them in one form or another.
There is another worthy discussion here and it is about boards. Boards that do not contain equal representation for the employees and the public can be very destructive.
Most of the corporate abuses we have suffered come from having perverse leadership non-representative of these two most important influences.

Impressive and well thought out analysis. I think his thoughts on political violence are particularly poignant for what we are dealing with. He doesn’t pull any punches and some of his conclusions are grim.

Hey, I know reading comprehension may not be your thing and this is certainly is not my fight. I will break it down one more time for clarity.
RFK claims it CAUSES Autism. He does not claim merely it increases the risk.
This meme stated quite logically that if it is the cause of Autism and Autism existed before the medication use was widespread, then clearly it does not cause Autism.
Obviously it does not cause Autism, in fact I doubt it is even a risk factor for it. This is pseudo science bullshit that is being used to sell made up “treatments”.
Frankly, people that are having a hard time with this are playing devil’s advocate, misinformed, or are MAHA.
So what part of this are you not “getting”
- Comment on proof of wormholes 1 month ago:
This is another dumb take. Cigarettes don’t cause cancer, they increase cancer risk.
RFK is claiming he knows the cause of Autism not something that can increases its risks.
The logic of this meme is sound.

- Comment on Microsoft starts rolling out Gaming Copilot on Windows 11 PCs 1 month ago:
Well damn, I got all kinds of old games that don’t work on newer Windows properly, I guess that means it is an OS failure for that use case.
I refuse to install intrusive anti-cheat in Windows, why would I install it Linux, if I even could.

Very compelling argument and until someone can refute it reasonably this is now more factual than what the US government has said.
- Comment on Or the common cold! 1 month ago:
I am pretty confident that mRNA vaccine research is going to lead to the cure for the common cold along with cancer, Parkinson’s, MS, etc.
We already have an effective AIDS vaccine now. We are getting really close to stopping a lot of human suffering. This is probably why the current administration is trying to pump the brakes.

Yes, of course.
- Comment on what's your take on employers banning the use of languages other than English between coworkers at the workplace? 1 month ago:
It is ridiculous of course but I do have one strange anecdote about this. I have been in a lot of retirement and assisted living homes and there can be some serious tension between racist resident and their non-white caregivers when they speak there languages around them.
One old Vietnam vet would get the fuck triggered out of him when the Filipinos would talk in Tagalog around him. They ended up making a rule that they can’t speak non-english around him. Not saying that this was right, but it was understandable.

Lol that was a good narrative wasn’t it? Fighting the good fight and all that. Too bad it wasn’t reality and Disney fell inline like every corporation.
