The power is with the people. It only takes about 1/4th of a community enact massive change. Your take is exactly what keeps people apathetic and reliant on others. "It's someone else's fault and someone else's resp

That's called taking responsibility for your actions and being an informed consumer or a critical thinker. Unfortunately that is completely undoable for most people nowadays. That's seen as "too much work" for most peopl

If not earlier. Reddit has been highly manipulated since at least 2015. I used to buy/sell reddit usernames for astroturfing and it was always hilarious seeing one of my usernames on the front page.

Heh, my last 5 ex gfs have all used Mac and I've had to fix everyone of their systems, some multiple times. Mac definitely breaks.

Even in the western world most anti-ai sentiment ends on social media. People are anti-ai cuz it's easy. They say something, repost or like something, and they're anti-ai. Then they turnaround and use AI in their email or calendar

There won't be. Anytime the environment becomes a leading issue there are suddenly price issues which make people vote for short term solutions. Gas is expensive. Food is expensive. Insurance is expensive. People will vote for whoever

Nah this is copium. People who want to do stuff get off the apps. There are plenty of hot folks who never say yes who wind up on those apps for years. Lots of uggos are also getting off the apps because they actually go on dates. Personalit

My take is that capitalism has convinced a large number of people that any form of inconvenience is unacceptable. This leads to people paying for services and products they don't need which leads to an atrophying of basic skills.

This is ultimately on the consumer. Critical thinking is long gone for like half the general population. It's wild. The excuses are endless.

I officiated basketball, baseball, softball and volleyball about 15-20 years ago on the west coast. It was bad then. So many drunk parents in baseball. I tossed parents from basketball games for cussing at their kids. Volleyball was pretty

The consumer chooses convenience for skill/knowledge and then complains about the outcome of their choice. It's wild.

The amount of times I see "I'd like to do the right thing but my spouse isn't on board" is mind boggling. It's wild how convenience trumps everything and then we look back to say, "we should have done better.&q

The show Devs kind of deals with this topic. Tldr: dudes wife/kid die in an unpredictable accident so he builds a super computer that predicts things, and can even go back in time using probability. Interesting story.

The average 17 year old can barely use a computer nowadays. Their phone? Sure. But an actual computer? Haha Try to teach an urban 17 year old how to drive a car. It's gonna be hilarious.

Both can be true. Trump and family do have very deep Russian connections in terms of financing. That's very true. His own sons have admitted it. Trump has said he loves Russian banks. American oligarchs are also schmoozing trump, clear

The under 30 crowd is also dangerously tech illiterate. They hardly know how anything functions. They just use apps. If it doesn't have a simple app they won't bother. Just nope out.

Their emissions are generally higher because they produce the goods other nations buy. This entire mentality of "but them" is bad.

Nonsense. This is defeatist talk. This is the logic folks use when they make dozens of small actions that add up, like buying more plastic cuz "it doesn't matter". The honest truth is people who use this logic have made the d

> For most individuals there is no lifestyle change they can make that will matter. Fixing it requires collective action. Sorry but this is absolute nonsense. What we eat matters. A huge amount of what people eat is unnecessarily excessi

Tragedy of the commons. It's not just you. It's you + the millions of people using the same "I'm a unique snowflake" logic. If 8 billion people can't do it, maybe consider not doing it.

Paypal stole over $10k from a Haitian charity drive we did. They froze the account and all the donations, then refused to refund people and offered "Donate to our charity instead" as an option. It was bonkers.

Yes but a lot of people just use apps. It's weird. Americans are super weird about dining procedures and expectations. Remember, we tip here. It's weird.

PayPal is Intuit of the payment processor world. Paypal has actively lobbied for legislation(or lack of) in ways that has hurt American consumers.
