I’m especially bothered with the realization of how little regard many of our fellow citizens actually have for others health and well-being. I don’t know how eager i am to return to a society that can’t even agree on diseases being a bad thing.

Totally agree about the empty gestures too, which really stood as a reminder of how little respect healthcare workers (and don’t forget funeral directors and morticians!) actually get especially considering how much they risk for everyone else’s sake

Right?! When i think of a place where i can do anything i want, i think of Amsterdam, Ibiza, and Moscow lol

“Carbon credits” i just can’t even 🙂‍↔️ what’s the fucking logic? Give us lots of money and we’ll make the pollution you created cease to exist?

It’s biases all the way down!

Love how this guy’s one of the richest people in the world yet he’s got nothin better to do than fuck with the common folk. Guess he doesn’t get enough attention at home, so here we are watching him stoke racism and stupidity to entertain his pathetic insecure self

Estimates are saying over 30 people died, mostly women and children according to the article.

To put it in context, here’s the final couple paragraphs from the same article:

The Israel-Gaza war began on 7 October, when Hamas carried out an unprecedented attack on Israel, killing about 1,200 people and taking 251 others back to Gaza as hostages.

The attack triggered a massive Israeli military response, which has killed at least 39,480 Palestinians in Gaza, according to the territory’s Hamas-run health ministry.

Prop!_OS

I can’t believe it’s not Putin™

Jill Stein 2024 lol

'member those scary caravans?!?

Seems a lot more plausible than them shooting down 4 missiles, def on-brand too

Perhaps that explains the pic of the 2 of them?

Can you refute the info in the article? That would go a lot further to prove your comment valid.

🥴

Those 2 look like they need to get a room ಠ_ಠ

I think there’s a couple things at play:

• You know enough to find a different app and make it do what you need it to. Not a hard thing, but something many non-tech savvy people could struggle with, or more likely–

• People often will just use what’s there. We know we have options, we are aware of the privacy concerns… but many people simply aren’t and/or don’t care enough to do anything about it.

We spend a lot of time here, so it seems to us like second nature to avoid intrusive apps… I find in my day-to-day life not many people are talking about that kind of stuff, or don’t have much knowledge/experience in that realm. (I realize that is anecdotal).

I 100% agree with your statements–just trying to rationalize how so many people end up using/staying with these ever-worsening services/apps…

I know this image is completely unrelated to the article, it’s just that i saw the words golden and axe in such close proximity…i wanted to leave that here in case others were thinking the same

I think it does though ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

She’s a former registered Republican with an axe to grind with AOC. She became a Democrat only in name, brought all her right-wing bullshit along with her.

So what the hell is this post even for? It links to a single tweet in the middle of a series of tweets from a retired journalist/current politician that otherwise seems to be 100% obsessed with AOC and spends nearly all her time X’ing about her. After having viewed her profile for a minute, i decided to find out a little more and it didn’t take long to reveal a conservative in liberal clothing:

"In her 2010 book, “You Know I’m Right: More Prosperity, Less Government,” Caruso-Cabrera called for privatizing both Medicare and Social Security, which she described as “the country’s biggest pyramid schemes.”

Just like to take this opportunity to say fuck the name “ByteDance”

It’s a stupid, corporate, “hip” name that needs to fade into obscurity asap. Not crazy about the company either, but the name in particular is just so fucking cringe
