I don’t think I’ve seen the old hard-R written out in quite some time. Let nobody say Musk and his indentured servant team have never accomplished anything. They just accomplish the bad things.

[-] BeMoreCareful@lemmy.world 9 points 2 days ago

Lol that's sort of true. I'm having a bit of a viseral reaction. I couldn't quite put my finger on why, but I think you're right. I just hadn't seen it in so long.

That's pretty fucked if you think about it.

[-] Zink@programming.dev 5 points 2 days ago

Yeah, that’s kinda what led to my comment. I was looking at it thinking how overtly fucked it all was.

every day it gets more incredible to me that people are so fucking addicted to fake validation and fake likes from fake friends that they still use fucking twitter

[-] MakingWork@lemmy.ca 153 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

Yeah! I like my fake validation and fake likes from anonymous friends over here on lemmy. Fake friends are overrated.

[-] Quill7513@slrpnk.net 90 points 3 days ago

the secret is i don't think anyone on lemmy is my friend. i find everyone here frustrating and annoying! the system works!

There's a pretty big difference between drinking mild poisons at a Nazi bar and a local bar. Zoomed out, sure, drinking alcohol at all can be considered pretty dubious, but the difference between the two scenarios remains.

edit: replace what autocorrect put as "consistent" to "considered"

A guy from South Africa made his app anti-black? Shocking.

[-] PunnyName@lemmy.world 116 points 3 days ago

The white guy who is only rich because of black oppression in South Africa, in fact.

Nazis are sub human and shouldnt have rights

The only good nazi is a dead nazi

Or maybe a grammar nazi... But I'm not sure they count

IDK How to tell you this, but fascist racists own everything and are planning to kill a whole bunch of people soon. I really think people are under estimating the severity of the vision these people have for the world.

The first word they did this with was cis. This will keep happening and the attacks will get worse until people act. Leave Twitter

[-] nifty@lemmy.world 104 points 3 days ago

People, please stop using twitter. Stop giving your attention and money to terrible people. Some people, like that white lady, are weak-minded and they will never learn.

Exactly the opposite lesson to take. We need public social media, not corporate social media. We need rights and guarantees, not profit taking and psyops.

[-] DarkFuture@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

Don't use state media controlled by a single megalomaniac man-child.

I like having a bunch of nonprofits because if one turns bad, I can switch. Your idea will work better if the state becomes controlled by the public.

She’s a straight up Nazi

Why do they call everything an "app"?

The app is just the interface, the interface did nothing wrong, the entire platform is cooked.

[-] hexabs@lemmy.world 4 points 2 days ago

That's a bit pedantic. App is used interchangeably to represent the whole platform.

I work as a SWE in a team with 15 year veterans at an App company that is a top 10 most downloaded on Android/iOS. We still use the word app this way in tech meetings.

[-] ulterno@programming.dev 10 points 2 days ago

When you use a slur, but also proper Grammar, it becomes harder to report.

Bro really wants to steal Truth Social's userbase for more money. He found out that the left is a lot harder to scam.

The weirdest thing here to me is that people call twitter an app. Not a site/community/whatever.

[-] RememberTheApollo_@lemmy.world 28 points 3 days ago

Anti-black? Is that a substitute for “racist” to avoid censorship?

[-] humorlessrepost@lemmy.world 33 points 3 days ago* (last edited 3 days ago)

To be fair, it’s far more precise, being a subset of racism, especially given the context of some racist slurs being filtered while others aren’t, depending on the targeted race.

In today’s fucked up world, it wouldn’t surprise me if anti-white and anti-black slurs were filtered but anti-hispanic and anti-asian slurs weren’t, for instance, maybe to drive nationalism regardless of race. I appreciate the additional clarity.
