I don’t mean this in an accusatory way, but did you write this with AI? I feel I’m becoming paranoid and seeing AI authorship in everything. The structure matches ChatGPT output.

I like paying for services rather than using free services that sell my data and brainwash me with ads. Adblock is fine, but how are they supposed to make money? Should the service be free?

Nothing reasonable about pedophile protecting fascist JD Vance. Let’s not allow them to position him as a viable leader.

What’s wild is that, as you say, we used to have this system in the US. We even had it during the time conservatives are so nostalgic for.

Gradually, over the past 60 or so years, all the prosperity has been siphoned back toward the top, and now it’s a radical idea to propose the system that our grandfathers lived under.

Yeah, if I set aside my deep seated hatred for religious people undermining the Texas public education system-

Thanks for the info, I didn’t know that.

Reminder to keep one of those window breaker hammers in your car.

Also don’t buy cars from megalomaniacal nazis.

Is Media-ITE a credible source?

Americans are protesting in historic numbers regularly. Larger than anything aside from the earth day protests that I am aware of. This narrative that Americans are rolling over and accepting this is false. It’s not being reported.

Of course that’s not enough l, but it’s counterproductive to spread information that contributes to a sense of learned helplessness. Trump is a traitor and a serial child rapist and murder, and all true Americans believe this and are fighting however they can.

I’m tired of being surrounded by propaganda. Do better.

I remember when silicon valley used to build products that would help people improve their lives.

The reaper or capitalist enshittification comes for all industries eventually.

Meanwhile, my whole life, things have either gotten worse or stagnated.

Change is the only constant. One chapter ends, another begins.

I think we all need to do the work to understand the problems faced by different groups. Women need to be doing this too. This isn’t a thread about problems men face, however.
