The beauty of this fediverse thing is, that… if you don’t like it you can make your own instance and do the thing you want there instead. Bye.

Unfortunately, she’s dead which means she will never even have the capacity to understand what her decision meant.
I don’t know, I like Sotomayor. And Brown-Jackson seems alright. And I really don’t have much opinion on Kagan aside from the fact that I usually agree with her rulings. As for Conservatives, I disagree with all of them almost always, but Gorsuch at least seems to care about consistency, and I think his views on Native affairs is admirable.
Ok, so we just have to hold out for another 30 years or so.
Let’s not pretend that he conservative justices didn’t already know how they were going to rule on this. They just needed to do a little parallel construction before issuing their opinion.
Capitalism has robbed us of more than we could ever even imagine. To the point where most people don’t even realize they’ve been robbed. It’s tragic.
We live in a society where amoral, faceless corporations are more valued than actual human life. And those corporations have so much power over people, and their cognition, that the majority have been tricked into consenting to this perverted system against all of their interests. And I would love for someone to explain to me why there should ever be a distinction between the people producing something, and the people/corporations that own the means of that production. Why should these be two different groups, and why in the FUCK would the class that doesn’t do any actual goddamn work, make 300x more money? It’s fucking disgusting.
But on the other hand, they said they were going to lower taxes. And also, trans people exist, so…
This is the most lukewarm, wishy washy, “enlightened centrist” shit I have ever read. Like,
So its a long attrition based slug war which can only be fought when we love our fellow Americans and stop listening to hate everywhere around us.
???
What are you fucking talking about? This is some next level naivety.
This is like when fast food places ask if you want to round your order up to the next dollar to donate to x cause.
Like, no, Taco Bell, I don’t want to pay you so you can turn around and get credit (both in terms of laundering their image, and for tax purposes) for my donation.
And who are they going to have take over mod responsibilities (for free) in all of these communities at once? This is why mods need to call their bluff and force them to try to replace them.
I think it would be incredibly naive and foolish to believe Meta has any kind of pure motives for this.
One of the biggest corporations in the world reaching out to its competitor to try to get them to talk “off the record” about “confidential details”… Sounds like a pretty blatant scheme to get them to reveal confidential details about their competitor’s product.
Or maybe Meta has broken with decades of its own conduct, and several centuries of capitalism, in order to reach out in good faith to their competitor. LOL.
I’m sure they’re watching the reddit situation very closely.
