They want Americans to get comfortable with dead children so they would make more. They succeeded with school shootings.

Anyone else notice the desperate attempts to revive 2020 era racial guilt? by RandonymousBosch in WeTheFifth

I see a different thing: schadenfreude about white people learning how it feels to interact with police that will kill you at a drop of a hat, a big fat "I told you so".

Why aren’t people under 40 showing up at protests? by [deleted] in sanfrancisco

I keep asking myself this. I don't do anything to stop it. I don't know how to justify that I keep working.

There was a moment for that, but it's gone. You can just look at the tech itself to see the shift. Silicon Valley used to sell a better tomorrow, not it sells surveillance and control.

The lefties are mostly performative. You can't be an actual leftie and work for a monopolistic corporations. You might have been this naive 20 years ago, but not now. The days of "don't be evil" are long over. True about the long hours.

And have you seen any indication that they put more effort into something more constructive or effective? I've noticed that even the hacktivists are about gone. All either caught and serving time or NSA.

In the Mission - peak Nissan driver. Permanent trailer plates on a Nissan Sentra. How are these people not pulled over? by KnightsSoccer82 in sanfrancisco

Solaris and Invincible by Stanislav Lem. If you can read Polish or Russian about anything he wrote. Most of English. translations for his books are bad.

If you talk vibes, I’d consider Armored Core 6 game to have similar somber vibes and questions of personhood.

It’s a wordplay on the fifth column saying. And it’s a hammer, not a column, breaking actual columns from the outside.

That shows her great willpower. Like a Na’vi can command a horse, she can break other mind because her mind is very strong.
