  • But what's your point? Are people making $60k/year causing world hunger through artificial scarcity or is it the greed and mental illness of the capitalist class?

  • Ignoring your source of, "trust me bro," a huge number of actual Americans in America think things are normal. How does that relate to interest rates?

    Jump

  • It's a cute little comic about how people feel on first dates and how crazy dogs look drinking from a hose.

    You come off as someone who has no personality if they're not talking down to others.

  • Chinese woman jailed for reporting on Covid in Wuhan to be freed after four years

  • Braver than most western journalists, who regurgitate the corporatocracies narrative and manufacture consent on their behalf.

    True

    Hopefully she's given a good job and granted asylum somewhere in the west ASAP, so she can go on with her life.

    What?

  • @lemmy.ml

    Not everyone of course but there's way too many people over there who will justify anything the Chinese government does or just ignore criticism by saying, "what about what the US does?!!?!"

    How they cannot understand that the US and China are both dystopian hellscapes is embarrassing.

  • Novel attack against virtually all VPN apps neuters their entire purpose

    Jump

  • There are very little, if any, benefits to using a VPN service to browse the public internet.

    This is why it's often best to just avoid the comments completely

  • It would take a super genius to understand that they're either a non-native English speaker or made a simple typo/autocorrect issue. Also, since it's completely impossible to even guess at the point they're trying to make through the context of every other word in their comment we all owe you a debt of gratitude for calling this out!

    Thank you, corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca, for adding something incredibly meaningful to the conversation and the world as a whole!

    Oh no.. I just saw this comment in a different thread from 2 hours ago, and it MAKES NO SENSE:

    Doctors today face a demand form their services that, while we can't guarantee will get them.jigher wages, can give them more leeway against unwritten political rules of speech.

    What is a doctor's "demand form?" And "them.jigher" isn't a term I could find anywhere on the internet! I don't understand what the author, corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca, was trying to say! It's all just gibberish!

    I feel good calling it out though. I'm sure that corsicanguppy@lemmy.ca will be grateful for my much-needed help and not think I'm a dick for detracting from their point to assert my knowledge of English grammar over them.

  • Noita Epilogue 2 Update

  • Neat, there's a second epilogue update in the game that I can't get past the second level.

  • On the contrary, if another pandemic killed a bunch of people, many of their homes would be bought up by the same hungry corporations that created and perpetuate the housing crisis.

  • I've blocked exactly one person on Lemmy and it's Yothgos or Yogthos or whatever the fuck their name is. They're either a propagandist in China or just a very sad person who posts prolifically about how amazing China is, dismissing any criticism against it. It's weird, sad, and annoying seeing them pop up in any thread about China. I assume they have or will pop in this thread but I don't know as they're blocked.

  • FDA says 561 deaths tied to recalled Philips sleep apnea machines

    Jump

  • You can't fix the problems caused by capitalism with capitalism. Those homeless people employed by that beautiful company in your made up example don't have a home because companies and the governments they write the laws for value profit over human life. Homelessness is overwhelmingly a mentally health issue which becomes an addiction issue, but here in the US all health care, much less mental health care, is a for-profit venture. And the open market that you seem to respect so much has made renting and home ownership unattainable for countless millions.

    You sound like everyone else who believes everything they learned in econ 101, that capitalism rights itself because it's in people's best interests to do so. You're out of touch with the reality of so many peoples lives, and you only emphasized it with your fantasy about "good capitalism." You can blame all of Lemmy or all the "brainwashed" people who tell you how far your perception of reality is skewed, but I hope you can continue learning about what life is like for people who don't have your privilege or luck and are moved to reconsider your stance.

  • Greed and lack of empathy

    That's what keeps capitalism humming along. It's why a few people own most of everything and the "lucky" Americans will be forced to work until they die. What point were you trying to make when you attempted to correct them by saying that's not capitalism?

  • Moment innocent civilian brandishing white flag in Gaza 'safe zone' is shot dead in the street

    Jump

  • He undoubtedly has more information about what's going on than most people who aren't there but he also has different motives. Where you or I might view genocide as unacceptable under any circumstances, he's viewing it through a lens of constantly needing to maintain and grow American power and resources. He believes that the US relationship with Israel furthers that goal so Israel performing genocide gets a pass. He rationalizes it by believing that whatever is (capitalism's definition of) good for America is good for all Americans.
