What is with this community getting bombarded by the doofus brigade? Y’all just keep getting downvoted anyways…

I hear ya and obviously I see the value of coordinating online (we wouldn’t be talking otherwise obviously) but many revolutions in history happened without the internet and they can (and likely will) happen again.

I get the concern, especially since people who aren’t tech savvy are pretty clueless when it comes to digital privacy, but I don’t know if we’re at the point where the ship has sailed on OS level age verification. At least in the US it seems like this is a fight that’s still worth fighting especially since the majority of the political energy right now is directed towards the concurrent AI and affordability crises (and, on the right wing, toward stoking anti-immigrant and to a much lesser extent anti-trans sentiment). To be fair, I’m pessimistic too and realistically, yes, any sincere effort to upend the power structure will eventually need to take place offline.

Yeah I’m not totally buying this one… Porn can be part of a healthy sex life. I don’t think it’s different than any other activity that provides dopamine: amazing in moderation, harmful in excess.

omg I remember this one… i don’t think i got the double entendre at the time tho lol

Meanwhile an overwhelming majority of bathroom goers are like, “whatever, I’ve got nothing to hide”

I love Kirby and it looks like it could be quite good but I’m maintaining my Switch 2 boycott slash I can’t afford one anyways so like with Pokopia it’s emulation or bust.

Just doing some quick napkin math, the $5k payouts would cost around $1.25 trillion, pretty much guarantee at least 4 more years of no Medicare for All, and lead to absolutely no systemic change. M4A is estimated to cost anywhere from $2.5-$3 trillion per year. So yeah, he’s almost certainly lying but also even if not it’s a huge bargain for the oligarch class.

The “marketplace of ideas” in action.

Also, in my opinion, Tumblr losing basically every single raid war they got into with 4chan around 2012-2013 has a lot to do with the state of social media today.

Tits or GTFO except now anon is POTUS.
