  • Dude, look around. Most of us are way, WAY past the “We’re all in this together! We can do it if we try!” method of living and have been operating in survival mode for the past 5 years. And can you blame them? The flood waters are rising and people are wanting to make sure they have a life raft. If that means working for evil people/companies, then so be it. It’s not like working somewhere else will stop or slow the flood. Morals are nice, but they won’t keep you afloat.


  • Gmail on mobile is pretty horrendous as well.

    Me: “Hey Google, can you pull up the emails with links to the concert tickets I purchased a few months back?”

    Google: “Here is every correspondence you’ve had with the ticket seller smashed into a single email with only the latest one visible”

    “But I purchased two tickets separately that came in different emails, how do I just get to those?”

    “🤷‍♂️”

    The Roman empire still has a long lasting legacy to this day. There is a reason so many countries have the eagle on their standard. And where do you think the month August comes from? The empire as a whole is looked upon fondly in history, despite being one built from conquest and authoritarian rule, with its leaders still praised to this day.

    I really don’t think your take on the lasting effects of authoritarianism matches with reality.

    Fascists always lose in the end

    The Kim family has had almost 3 full generations of not facing any consequences for their actions in NK. The Saudi royal family has been living it up in luxury for decades. Sorry, but I think your statement is childishly idyllic and not reflective of the real world.

    Karma doesn’t exist. The good guys dont always win. Some of the most evil people imaginable will die peacefully in their sleep at the age of 90, wealthy, and surrounded by family that loves them.
