I wonder if you use a series of controlled taps you can get a screw to screw in with a hammer.

The hold outs for these sites are so fucking dumb. They act like social media is somehow an important part of their existence when just 10, 20 years ago it was an emerging technology. These early iterations of social media are toxic as fuck. YouTube, Facebook, Twitter, etc. They don’t deserve your patronage and are taking your goodwill and turning it into social decay.
10-20 years and you people can’t give it up for something better. There is no argument. You don’t owe them loyalty. They aren’t innovating. They have contributed to the rise of authoritarianism.
Yeesh.
For sure. How many times has the end is nigh reared it’s head in the last 40yrs
I’m trying man but all I see is hate and fear win. Like just now I was thinking we know trumps going to make another authoritarian grab for power. No matter the results. I know they put some protections in if he loses and they seem pretty decent.
What about if he wins, though?
He’s signaled his intent should we not warn our citizens about what to do when certain things happen?
When Trump exercises the new powers that the supreme court granted him, what should the people do?
When Trump expels anyone not loyal to him from the government? What do we do?
When he opens concentration camps to round up immigrants, what should we be doing?
It’s all but too late but how stupid it would be if the DNC left it all up to chance.
It’s pessimistic but it does help calibrate you on what to be grateful for. Say, somehow, we are on the brink of a utopia and we just don’t know it. Except the people today won’t be alive to experience it. For us, this would be as good as it gets.
That one article claiming to have cured a person with type I diabetes. I don’t really put stock into it but at one point HIV was thought to be incurable and they made breakthroughs like this, one at a time.
I’ll go. One thing that always gives me pause is crime rates are way down in the US.
Tim has come out guns blazing. I’d let him go head to head against Vance with no fact checks. I just wish they’d get rid of the moderators, though, if they aren’t going to moderate.
Just put a jar between them and they can pull a card if the discussion dies down.
And God said it should be painful! That’s what you get for wanting to know stuff!
Can’t wait for Putins youtube. He’s got some killer tips on how to pick up women.
Sorry you thought I was being prescriptive. Oh well.
I agree. I also have my own pet agenda. I think people need more time to process. Our mind is taxed constantly and we are trying to squeeze everybit of life in the 2-3 hours before we have to go back to work. If people could chill for some exteneded period of time. Feel stable for a some extended period of time. They would not be so panicked all the time and be less prone to being irrational.
The best way to avoid information is to avoid misinformation? Maybe you meant something else.
Edit:
Am I missing something?
This is hyperliteral, but ok. In this case we are talking about the information from our senses. Well, our senses fail us all the time. Ever misread a word? Ever mishear instructions? Cross your index and middle finger then run the tips of those fingers down the bridge of your nose. Done correctly you will feel two noses.
I’m ok with this, it highlights the same exact thing. To avoid air pollution you would have to stop breathing because all air is polluted.
I’m not trying to bait. It was just a funny quagmire that I fell into and apparently it’s even too controversial for an unpopular opinion discussion.
Lol. Sorry, yall. I’m now some sort of provocateur.
Ok. I’d be happy to share this space with your shoe.
That’s how you end up arguing whether any sick time is on the table and then the government steps in and says no sick time now back to work. Don’t ask for just any sick time. Ask for fucking 2 months of paid leave for all workers and a $300,000 salary.
