Grool The Demon

https://www.platformer.news/leaving-substack-platformer-year-four/ This looks to be straight from the person that BroBot9000 was referring to. Interesting read.

What a thing to Bragg about.

If you can’t do it through legislation there’s always baseball bats, guns, fists, knives, and other useful tools to get the job done.

The fact that everything is controlled through “The Cloud” and some godforsaken subscription service is so terribly sad, funny, and horrifying at the same time. We’ve literally found every conceivable way to gather and sell people’s data while simultaneously milking them out of every last cent with the whole FOMO mentality driven through every piece of hardware and software now sold. It is just absolutely fucking preposterous. We’re living in a virtual hellscape that doesn’t seem to be going away anytime soon.

This has actually frightened me for years. There are fucking weirdo’s out there that believe so much in the Bible that I think they are actively trying to make the end times prophecy happen rather than just, you know… Evolve?

I remember when Reddit threads would have 50000 plus comments on the regular that felt like real discussions where karma kept the assholes in control. The front page always felt full of new things and it felt democratic in a way. In recent years it feels empty, algorithmic, and just kind of sad. Reddit felt like a safe place even with some of the grimier subreddit becoming popular. Now it’s just a oligarch pandering Nazi sympathizer platform. I was on there for 12 years and am happy I left it behind.

Thanks!

What a tragedy. Does anyone have any reliable lists of charities or movements that can be donated to for relief efforts?

I said justice would’ve seen Trump tried on January 7th and hung on January 8th. That got me a soft ban. Then I said kill all Nazis but six and save them for pallbearers. That got me a permaban. Tearing the bandaid off on 12 years of comments and posts hurt but so far I like the attitude of Lemmy a lot better. It feels like real conversation instead of just shitposting and trolling.

I was just watching CNN and the one reporter claimed that in some areas they felt shaking for 3 to 4 minutes.

The lack of education was always the plan. Keep white, straight (press x for doubt) America poor and dumb and isolate them further into xenophobia or the closet until they want to wage war against anyone that isn’t white and straight. Meanwhile, the oligarchs preying on that get to profit off of the dumb isolationist hive mind behavior these people exhibit. It’s a pyramid scheme built on the foundations of bigotry and cynicism.

Yeah, the rest of the world forgets how many Ray-Ban and eagle and flag t-shirt wearing, truck driving, chubby, bearded, gym bro weirdos and how many vapid, bleached blonde, red lipstick wearing, pearl clutching Karen’s there are in America. She’s got their votes on lockdown.

It’s all the juicing and human growth hormone that made her ugly head swell into a pumpkin doing most of the heavy lifting on her already shitty personality. This crazy bitch is a walking (on her fucked up hammer toes) roid rage ready to happen at any moment.
