I mean democracy has never been real in The West. It always operates and constrains popular media, and cultural forces to constrain the resistance to Capitalism.

It’s always coopted and cooperative with the forces of wealth and repression. So yeah, yell this shit on social media, maybe one day a diluted form will appear on CNN or NBC, but there’s no way it will go farther than that.

We’re along for the ride, censored, confined, robbed of time, money, power and lifeforce… And only existing to be used in someone else’s dreams of wealth extraction and labour exploitation.

I heard lots of the most extreme settlers come from America.

AI is a parasite.

“We’re both commenting on the Internet; but I’m right for it and you’re wrong for it!”

-Classic fuckin internet comment. Very original. Good arguing. “I’ll shame them into winning, I’ll go after the exact same activity I’m doing”

You’re so clever! \s

Glad you’ve got goals for 2026.

Agreed.

Ahh yes, throw away lines and not giving a shit about “karma” sorry, I mean “Lemmy community care points”

…and you’re right, there’s no harm in food apps and hoping gig workers enjoy my Christmas jokes. I’m helping this new economy 💪

I’m a fucking saint.

Ahh yeah, Christmas related jokes, “a good laugh”. They WILL enjoy your banter and the extra phone time.

Thanks.

Darling, everyone on Lemmy is fucking curious.

Yeah, I can’t wait until questions about Rudolf and the One horse open sleigh are on the citizenship test (everyone knkws that just by living here right?)… Who knows, maybe you’re right and that question is already on the citizenship test?

Oh yeah, no one ever got popular or suddenly culturally relevant arguing about this shit. My comment isn’t the mkst replied to here. It’s best if there’s no debate on Lemmy, arguing doesn’t drive people to interact. No Lemmy should be a place of quiet and empty agreement or reflection.

Good job being the most correct on the Internet.

I’ve paid a tech company to get an underpaid worker to bring me fast food on Christmas… In what fucking mad universe is that about inclusion?

Your comment comes down to “But they will love my witty banter and extra time on their phone”.

…Congrats.

Such a dumb entitled white person set of assumptions being made here:

My door dasher will be from a white Christian culture, so will know Christmas songs.

My door dasher enjoys their job so much they’ll surely enjoy my extra chatter and my hilarious banter!

Mother fucker, your door dasher working Christmas is probably a hindu guy who has no clue what you’re on about. Hence the answer they gave.

We also know science misinformation is a good thing, and nothing could go wrong from joking about the earth being flat.

I’m fine with downvotes, but often the problem with the left is not enough money… And it’s understandable if they’re always anti corporations and anticapitalist.

But… It would be good to have more rich leftists and punks. They could treat workers better with stock sharing (like that Chobani company did that one time), or by letting the workers have more time off, or just have the company (making it a worker owned coop)… Or in a much more centist way, like Mark Cuban (probably not a leftist) making generic medicines more accessible.

I’m just saying, a punk complaining about “corporate media” whilst valid, also feels cliche, and like a pathway to apathy, defeat, and being fairly voiceless in comparison to that corporate media (which is often loud, prevalent, and leans right).

What if instead - there was a Punk company, that WAS a media “corporation”? They could push punk messages all the time, whilst being a source of money, art, culture, and sustainable messaging and events.

I think that could be more punk, than the great traditions of amazing zines, in runs of 20 - 50 or less… and Yelling into a microphone and calling it music.

I guess all punks of action must become antiheros, and no corporation can be completely without heirachy…

…you know what, forget I said anything.

I buy my phones second hand and I keeps em until something starts to fail.

If you’re gonna include 23 skidoo… You should include being at sixes and sevens:

67… Is very very old British slang for wrecked/confused, at odds, or hysterical.

“I was all 6’s and 7’s”

Top-G is just foolin yall no cap. My fine brother in Christ is playing 4D chess, taking a fall and PRETENDING to lose to lure in other (more WORTHY) fighters. Cobra Tate DOESN’T QUIT. You’ll see and you’ll all be laughin on tha otherside of y0 faces. GO TATE ACADEMY MAGA4LYFE!!!

Blockchain is generally less privacy oriented, more trackable, so more data brokers.
