Fun that that this country is burning down because a handful of emotionally stunted dudes were furious they can’t get laid without living up to the low bar standard of “don’t be a fucking weirdo”

In the creators of South Park's opinion, the worst thing in the world you can do isn't injustice, discrimination, racism, bigotry ...

No no.

The worst thing any person in the world can do is annoy Trent Parker and Matt Stone, and that's been the eternal basis of everything they've ever produced.

bumping again, really could use some help for food and bills before my next paycheck comes in in a few days
I hate to do this but I could really use the help

Long story short is my parents have been going through a messy divorce this year and instead of helping each other with money they would ask me instead.

I finally told them I can't help anymore but it's left me broke

Two independent studies found that AI chatbots were better at persuading voters than political ads. The most persuasive bots also lied the most. This is something that humans working in psyops have known for decades. AI is psyops at scale. www.technologyreview.com/2025/12/04/1...

Trump’s America First has emboldened the fringes on the American right just as Lindbergh emboldened the “Hitler’s not so bad” crowd.

when a poor person uses food stamps for a steak or homeless person spends $5 on a beer, it’s seen as proof that all poor people are so bad with money that they shouldn’t be given any, ever, for any reason. $77 billion out the window, and zuck’s legacy as a safe government contract bet is secure.

I think part of the problem is that people like Sarandos live in enclaves where everyone has a home cinema with a 85 inch screen on the wall with surround sound and dynamic lighting

Why is it no one makes things we NEED anymore?

Rhey just build shit and force it on us. I do not need to be turned into a surveillance and data collecting machine for Facebook. That does not improve my life...especially if I am expected to pay for the privilege.

Fuck this.

Forty years ago, 90% of media outlets were spread across 50 companies.

Now, just 5 companies control 90% of the media market.

This consolidation hurts consumers and helps oligarchs. 🧵
