"In a text message in 2021, Mark Zuckerberg said that he wouldn’t say that child safety was his top concern “when I have a number of other areas I’m more focused on like building the metaverse.”"

So he failed at keeping children safe *and* building the metaverse. An evil failure is all he is.

I don't think turkey sucks, I just consider it lower-tier poultry, and we deserve better for celebratory dinners
I'm sick of this psyop that turkey sucks. I can only assume it derives from Big Ham. Oh, turkey is too dry? Learn how to brine properly, put some gravy on it, go for the dark meat. BuT iT's ToO bLaNd! Any protein can be too bland if you're balls at cooking it!
One side effect of half the world being in the throes of a fascist takeover is that comments like "turkey sucks" that used to lead to a 4 hour slapfight and approximately 135 blocks are now met with "well thats just like your opinion man" and thats progress
