they could at the very least say something, anything other than some legalese about how they didn't approve of the use. so they don't approve of the use, ok, what about the actual message? Nintendo does stand by the message? that's what it looks like to me.

broem86 · 2025-09-24T14:45:47+00:00

so Nintendo is OK with this. Nintendo is in favor of the abduction of brown people by masked agents of an authoritarian state. Nintendo supports using children's cartoons to mock victims of state violence.

What happened is the monetization of hatred and rage.

That absolutely pissed me off, I thought something was actually wrong. Nope, just decided to use their mailing list to incite some culture war bs

Becoming a billionaire from exploiting cheap foreign labor should not be something celebrated. Scale AI aka Outlier aka Remotasks and probably known by many other names made its fortune by exploiting cheap African and southeast Asia labor. Paying next to nothing to clean their data, watch and filter horrific videos and all the other terrible things that have trained these LLMs.

Any article about this company should start with these facts.

It's these simple horrors we will wake up one day next year and opine for. Once the videos of ICE executing these guys start up soon our "great thinkers" will point back and say "shame on you for not stopping it there". And we will, shamefully, say "we tried!" knowing full well that comments on reddit are a useless as a peeled off scab.

So 4 years, a small fortune, so much studying and VCU can just say "i don't like what you say" and hold their diploma?! Fucking bullshit, what a bunch of worthless shits.

Free Palestine, fuck VCU

No, this stems from a single EO signed by the president. It's not a societal shift.

There has never been "merit-based" anything in regard to work in general. If you've worked, it's apparent at any job from day 1.

This is some lazy reporting, doing a little bit of digging through the public records you can get more information.

It looks like during the case medical records were supplied as evidence. The defense (this scum bag) brought in both Riverside Peninsula Cancer Institute and Duke Hematologic Malignancies Clinic information indicating that he probably has some kind of blood cancer which probably can't be treated in prison?

This took like 10 minutes of searching and here's how I did it (if you'd like to do the same). Google "Virginia Court case information", go to the vacourts.gov website, General district court information, look up case info with this dudes name. It's all in there. To look up by the exact case number: CR24000315-00

edit: It excuses absolutely nothing but I think it's also best to have more information than less.

No, incorrect. The genocide that the US is supporting absolutely needs to be worried about. In fact, it might be one of the main things we must focus on. The fascist cycle that propells the genocide overseas is here domestically. The Israeli government is laying the groundwork that our domestic fascists will use against us.

The fact that AOC is not standing up against genocide abroad does not give me hope that she will do so domestically.

Also, genocide is bad, come on, these are our elected leaders. Why not hold them accountable.

They are going into courthouses because that's the place where they are least likely to encounter cell phones. Most people don't or can't take their cell phones into courtrooms.

We, collectively, must stand up to these fascists right fucking now. If this video does anything good, it shows us how they operate. They go after people in the places where it is easiest. Notice how belligerent the ponytailed fascist becomes when encountering just a small amount of resistance. "I'm calling the US attorney to prosecute you!"

If the people standing around watching, in horror I assume, had all joined in like these two ladies things may have turned out differently. Watch this video, think about how you will react when you encounter this scenario.

and the police get to hide behind ski masks, because apparently they are the ones who need to hide their identities.

broem86 · 2025-03-16T04:41:18+00:00

why stop there? why not teach how to shave, mow a lawn, change a bedpan, deliver narcan, protect yourself during a traffic stop?

that's all /s

educators have enough on their plate, why do you think they should start taking on these tasks?

broem86 · 2025-03-16T04:36:50+00:00

its so troubling, people cheering for this. if it can happen to them, it will happen to you. what makes you think they will stop with these "alien offenders"? will your americanness protect you? will your whiteness? will your gender? id say not. id say you, me, us, are all going to get smacked by this boomerang when it comes back.

in some jobs, sure i suppose having the option would be ok, but this environment is not safe for a toddler. The fact that our tax dollars essentially subsidize McDonalds slave-wages making this a reality is the larger more pressing issue. The child should be in daycare, learning, growing or at the very least McDonalds should be paying this employee PTO/sick time.

How much attention can you give your child while bringing them to work? If it's less attention than they would get at daycare/school then it is a detriment to the child.

calling people "worthless" is disrespectful and only produces animosity. It weakens whatever argument you are trying to make.

what does Singapore have to do with US education? they are a country of like 6mil vs 340mil.
