  • They say this whilst trying their best to make EVs the printers of the car industry. Update? The car stops and bricks itself for the duration of it. Want basic features? You have to pay a monthly subscription for the car you already payed for. Need it repaired? Have to bring it to a dealership with criminal prices because every part is serialized and they have you by the balls. Need a new battery after it kicks the bucket in 4-5 years? Expect to pay $10-20k for a new one. Oh and of course the center terminal/tablet is now crucial for the cars function, so anytime that malfunction it bricks itself again. Oh and it will always track and spy on you with GPS and onboard cameras and microphones.


  • Is it just me or I always see conservatives having “lucid” moments where they see how terrible, corrupt and violent the maga regime is, but a few hours later, once they get hooked on fox again, they become a diehard supporter again.

    Same thing with the subreddit. You see EVERYONE concerned about something the GOP is doing, but they never mention it again or acknowledge it again. Lucid moments where all the commenters seemingly revolt against the Republican party that suddenly fades without any lasting impact.



  • Is it so much generational neglect or “corporations hide their disastrous impact on the planet and society from the public for as long as they can, and after the effects become impossible to ignore they gaslight everyone blame the society as a whole to burdern them with their crimes” ?

    Classic Streisand at play “DONT listen to this band cause they are SUPER evil and they are the DEVIL!!!”

    You’d think religious people would eventually learn the harder they try to repress exploration, the more they end up encouraging it. It’s more fact than stereotype that the most sexually repressed and sheltered growing up end up becoming the freakiest and kinkiest.


  • It is a blessing that life has no meaning. You can give it any meaning you want without having to delude yourself from the “right” meaning.

    Your life meaning could be charity, attempting to reach the pinnacle of your hobby, teaching and empowering others, success, dismantling tyrrany, competition (like that in sports and other hobbies), creation and building, etc. Find one that you believe in, and help others to find theirs

    You can choose multiple, but many is too great of a burden to carry.










  • I’ve been grappling this for a while now, and how to think about it. It’s so sad that just about every being has to constantly work and suffer to prolong their existence (which only consists of work and suffering).

    To what extent should we avoid the suffering? To what extent should we embrace it? Prolong it? Are there different types of suffering? Are some more preferable to others? Is suffering to produce art, or other creative work, better than the suffering of menial labour or going hungry?

    How much should your children suffer? Should they suffer rigorous education and studying, or should you only occupy yourself with providing for them? Should you provide them a wealth of knowledge of life lessons and wisdom, or try to build up the largest pile of inheritance you can?





  • Firstly, I don’t agree with anyone in this chain, but man… there are just some people who damn near physically incapable of learning.

    There’s also the simple fact that a huge portion of the population just don’t care about politics or government. If “didn’t vote” was an option for eligible voters, it would have won every election in US history.
