  • That sounds like 4Chan shitposters trying to trick you into something (bet the next step would have been to put a shoe on your head). lol

    It is like all the stuff that would have previously been a huge tip-off of a phising attempt, are just now used by the supposed “legit” services/sites. I am curious how much such a “check” matters with all the AI gen stuff getting better faster than the “prove you are human” stuff.


  • Trump’s time interacting with the WWE and reality TV really makes all of this make sense. Got to have faces and heels to keep ratings high and carry the plot. In the end, they all party after the show. The dems also play their parts. All ran by the rich and their love of keeping the “fans” fighting over which character(s) are better than the others and paying for tickets/PPV.



  • I am just done with all the Boomers and Gen-X folks being condescending about Millennials and Gen-Z being more supportive of options left of Liberal. Get hit with “you just don’t understand what it was like living in the Cold War. And I don’t think you would support them if you were around for Vietnam and constant threat of nuclear war” (or some version of how much chaos existed in the Cold War like we haven’t lived through basically the same shit and more along with them).

    Those same people will talk about how they protested Vietnam, nukes, and were so active (along with “you will get more conservative when you’re older”) in other protests like Civil Rights and Women’s Rights. Maybe even say some shit like “I didn’t sell-out, I bought-in” when pressed about why they became their parents. This doesn’t mean that very broad generalizations of gens is correct. But there are some broad sections of every gen that are large enough to be the “symbol” of those gens. Millennials and Gen-Z will be known to Alpha and (I am guessing) Beta based on similar observations. So it really matters that we need to try to be better. I don’t care what the older gens try to “symbolize” us as, because it is how much we fail those future gens that matters.
