  • American colleges/universities are just propaganda centers

    I feel like my public education from kindergarten thru high school was much more of a propaganda pipeline than my public university education. We didn’t do the pledge of allegiance in uni, nor were we taught the Revolutionary War 8 times over

    people come out dumber, more polarized and in great debt

    Dumber? No, they might come out more book-smart than street-smart but there are different kinds of intelligence and we need all of them. Polarized? That’s the entire country, regardless of education, and the media has much more to do with that than anything else. Great debt? Yes.

    Most don't even like their career

    I’m sure plenty of blue-collar workers hate their jobs too. It’s work, not leisure

  • I like hearing them purr and watching their zoomies

    • Here’s why it matters
    • Here’s why you should care
    • Here’s what experts have to say
    • X happened, here’s what that means for the future

    It’s like they feel the need to remind us what the purpose of an article is

  • oh lawd he scrungin

  • A lot of these have the vibe of 90s Encarta Encyclopedia on CD

    G - would be cool to have butt cheeks on your money

  • A military fighting on their own soil is going to be much stronger infrastructure- and intelligence-wise vs. if they're fighting on foreign soil

  • ENHANCE

  • Fighting guerilla forces on foreign land is a completely different context

  • Planes can't patrol street corners

    Sure, but tanks/armored vehicles can, and police absolutely use those

  • Can’t tell if this is a sarcastic question or not but opposing the government with guns is a delusion held by conservatives who think their AR-15s have a chance against a government with drones, tanks, etc. That belief was true when the Bill of Rights was written and the military just had muskets and a couple cannons but anyone who believes that now is insane

    Plus, our police shoot unarmed people and get away with it, what do you think is gonna happen if they see you open carrying?

  • Nah pretty much everyone was in agreement that the new logo was worse, what do you me-

    a sample of 52,000 posts made on X

    Ah yes, the defunct site that is mostly bots so that Muskrat can continue to earn ad revenue NaziBucks

    similar conversations were happening on the alt-tech platforms like Donald Trump’s Truth Social, Twitter knock-offs Gettr and Gab

    Ah yes, the sites that use amplification bots to keep their users riled up and strengthen the echo chamber

  • accounts.google.com/gsi/* blocks the "sign in with Google" popups

    No, I do not want to sign into pornhub with my Google account

  • Ask Lemmy @lemmy.world

    How do yall feel about Youtube videos that show several walls of text?

  • I still work in tech, but I’m incredibly selective about the jobs I take, and I’ll never work in corporate tech again

    What exactly do you mean by this? I’ve also wanted to get out of tech but have zero experience in anything else so idk what to do

  • I think the true title of the book is “How to Make Shallow Friends and Manipulate People”

    Great advice for making acquaintances at work but definitely do not apply it to your personal life

  • Yeah but I don’t think that’s marketing, if you’re going to a con for something, you’re likely very passionate about it and passionate people love to scoop up everything they can that relates to their beloved hobby or franchise.

    Also, nerds tend to have a good amount of disposable income on that stuff

  • Oh sorry I was referring to CEOs

  • They do indeed make strategic decisions, just only in favor of the short term profits of shareholders. It’s “strategy” that a 6 yr old could execute, but strategy nonetheless
