- Every time people on youtube says words like “unalive” I cannot stop thinking about newspeak.
this was a double plus good comment. really made me reflect on how I can better serve big brother.
Makes me want to not un-slap the bullshit out of their mouths.
What is your solution? Because this was clearly borne from a place - not of being quirky - but of corporations actively censoring people who speak freely about whatever they decide.
Start at Facebook, Twitter, YouTube, Google, and TikTok if you want to throw deserving slaps
Don’t use these shitty apps? Seems pretty straightforward.
I don’t personally, but the point of my question which you may have missed was what should all the kids do?
Also not use these shitty apps. It’s very simple.
Sometimes I’ll follow a clear joke using some element of the discussion topic (e.g. “not un-slap” as a way to poke fun at the moronic euphemisms) with some serious talk about the real underlying problems but not always. This just wasn’t one of those times.
My default goal is to add a little levity. The soapbox doesn’t have to come out every time.
Oh. It was the punching down that didn’t feel “light,” so I figured you were serious. Carry on if you must
Thanks, I recognize that not everybody will be on the same page and that’s fine. I must and I will. See you around.
The homeless man’s name? Diogenes.
That dumpster? A large pot in the city center.
That city center? The hyperspace bookshelf dimension from the ending of Interstellar.
The amount of rage bait packed into this one image is truly impressive.
The only ragebait is the needless censoring to get people to wonder why it’s being censored so they share it, otherwise the mockery of economic propaganda is pretty based.
Fixed
We found the Epstein Files!
We did it lemmy
Holy Shit, is this the real SCP-001?
Every person eating out of a dumpster is a failure of the system. How has our economy not incentivized creating a method yet to maximize the wealth we could be extracting from these people?? We could slap a simple coin op slot onto those dumpsters and operate them like an unregulated vending machine. We could come up with a subscription model to allow monthly access to eating out of them. We could even figure out some form of alternative decentralized money system to get around FTC regulations and pesky labor laws on how we pay and receive the money from these homeless people. Capitalism is the greatest economic system ever created and we need to find a place in it for the homeless to contribute their fair share to the shareholders.
Exactly! I’ve also had it with these homeless people thinking they can just place an encampment wherever without paying someone. Don’t they know free stuff is communism actually? I know the police clears them out once in a while, but that also costs valuable taxpayer money! Instead, why don’t we rent them spots under bridges, and in return the police leave them alone? /s obviously
I just realized they censored the posters fucking eyes
They censored “garbage”.
Really? Wow, what a load of
rubbishEdit: well, fuck me, they even censored
rubbish! Wait, what aboutwaste? Orlitter? Oh, FFS, bunch of cunts.
Why are people self-censoring “homeless” and “garbage”?
So plebs engage and tell them that the censorship annoys them and gives them engagement metrics
I believe “temporarily unhoused” is the emotionless HR term these days.
I’ll grow and forage for my own food and alcohol specifically because it helps hinder GDP growth.
An unhoused man, you mean
Wait… People sit in parking lots?
Of course! Gotta wait on my guy to arrive with that ball.
They could be laying down lol
Seeing someone censor themselves like that makes me want to unalive them by stabby-stab.
You guys should really read the Russian version of 1984. The translators incorporated a lot of Soviet lingo into it. Which just is the icing on the cake.
that guy has to be trolling too hard…
A homss man eating out of the garbe?
Thas, great sty.
