Getting paid for using energy is literally every business model.


Haidt … is campaigning internationally to end the “phone-based childhood”. He says… Videogaming, porn and gambling gave boys such dopamine hits that anything else they did felt boring.

This is pseudo-science.



There are better terms but capitalist media doesn’t attack its daddy.


it’s somewhat fascinating to ask what “social media” has done… The term now means “let’s keep you addicted to posts from people you’ll never meet”

Sure, if you assume the worst possible definition of “social media”, then it probably hasn’t done anything worthwhile.


So the problem isn’t actually “social media” but corporate control?

Well geez I wonder why everybody is attacking social media… \s






If you’re talking about zuck, elmo, and pals, then yes the problem is people.

But it’s not “people” who’re flooding my feeds with fascist advertisements, etc.


The attempts to ban TikTok were always an obvious move to hide the genocide in Palestine.

But now that Trump has fully endorsed genocide and can directly kidnap people who resist, the ban on TikTok doesn’t really matter as much.


Nothing is really changing. It’s the exact same system as under genocide joe. It’s a continuation of a loooong history of violence.


You still benefit from white privilege. If it weren’t for your pale skin, you most likely would’ve been deported or murdered before you even tried. Your privilege in USA is still based on your skin tone. Now you’re supporting fascism here with you white victimhood story. Everybody in USA has some sad tale. Fuck off with your bullshit, yt.


Now? USA has been supporting a genocidal nuclear regime in palestine for decades. They’ve been threatening and attacking every state in the region. Total rogue.


JFC. Computers don’t “make stuff up”. They generate sentences based on statistics and programming. If it’s “wrong”, that’s just the program. There’s no inherent reason why these programs would be magic truth machines. Maybe these people need to figure out their own damn code but that’s not some breakthrough. It’s not some mystery that needs “research”.

TL;DR: GIGO.


The party can never fail, it can only be failed.

Liberal anthem on Lemmy.
