I feel like every convert to any form of anticapitalist politics has a moment where the cognitive dissonance between what we’re told capitalism does and what we see with our own lying eyes becomes unbearable.
Or at least that’s what happened to me.

all the fake AI trash really contradicts one of the main ways we're told capitalism operates, with capitalists identifying wants/needs & developing products & services to meet those. turns out you can skip that step & just pretend. nigh everyone hates AI and it makes no money but it's everywhere

If you even own a confederate flag you are without doubt a gigantic piece of shit. Like you are objectively just a bad person and you should be shunned from society
Display of Confederate flags at North East Christmas parade called ‘inexcusable’
Display of Confederate flags at North East Christmas Parade called ‘inexcusable’
Two groups flaunting Confederate flags in a small Cecil County town’s holiday parade over the weekend riled up some community members and left some wondering how they were permitted to participate.

I really wish we as a society had more educational opportunities for working adults that were purely just for the sake of learning. Evening language classes. How to fix your car courses on weekends. Spaces for learning shouldn't be something that stops in your 20s and maybe picks up post-retirement.

all of these people need an editor, a psychiatrist, and a small circle of trusted friends they can share this sort of beastly idea with over brunch instead of inflicting it on the public.

Possibly the only thing more freakish than Nuzzi's prose is the contortions her defenders twist themselves into. "She's not just hot, but she definitely is hot, while also being a vulnerable smol child. Also, criticizing her is sexist."

One time the local Staples (office supply store) went out of business and had a liquidation sale and my sister’s boyfriend and a couple of his friends went and bought about a thousand boxes of post it notes for 10 bucks total and six months later they did this to my dads office

One of the most disturbing things about the U.S. government getting themselves into the anti-vaccine game is that it is a time-release poison pill.
It will take a few years before the worst of the harm is visible to enough people that they will truly understand what has been done to them.

ICE agents followed a Burnsville family home from the store, failed to present a warrant and entered their home with guns drawn. They detained 4 legal citizens who presented documentation, leaving a 7 year-old without parents.
A seven-year-old. Let that sink in. Trump’s ICE is out of control.

This is fair and accurate. I have to constantly fight that impulse of looking for the savior. It's what we were taught—individual heroics instead of community efforts. An easy way to absolve ourselves of responsibility and allow the horrors to continue.

it's not lowering the bar when you do it for men, it's actually a really important step toward addressing the male loneliness crisis
Brown University accepted nearly equal numbers of male and female students, but got almost twice as many female applicants. That math meant it was easier for men to get in.
Trump's DEI ban may end gender balancing efforts that often benefit men.
