Analysts at SemiAnalysis ahead of the election feared the worst...“[Hinojosa] would impose a moratorium until legislation is passed that gives communities a voice, protects household utility bills, and ends the tax incentives for data centers."

Few sentences more effectively demonstrate the disconnect between billionaire capitalists and the rest of us.

futurism.com is full of clickbait garbage

They'll be soon black/pink/lavender/green-washing their corporations' images, again. Just like they did before Trump. And anyone falling for it is a sucker, and deserves to be treated as one.

They're gonna need to have much better PRIDE avatar flags next year to win back my confidence.

I know you're joking but I immediately started thinking that. Is Target going to suddenly have totally legit honest LGBTQ stands again now? I have a feeling we're going to have whiplash with all of these corps.

They will absolutely flip and pander, and people are going to willfully look the other way, because it's too difficult not to have a Facebook.

so we just need to exterminate the c suite of Facebook. just kill them all. kill their families. kill any security guys or house slaves who don't turn on them.

I really don't understand how so many people are unwilling to be mildly uncomfortable

One of my friends won't get off Twitter "because that's where the good memes are". I'm like ma'am you can live on slightly stale memes.

its not conscious, just a bundle of reflex and reaction. it cannot comprehend how to structure personhood and experience differently.

When do we get to eat them?

there aren't actually enough of them for all of us to have a bite of meat, so I propose some kind of soup.

For an industry obsessed with risk models, betting everything on Trump’s popularity was quite a choice. Especially while telling ordinary people to accept higher power bills and endless data centers. Turns out the electorate wasn’t as easy to disrupt as the CEOs hoped.

I mean from history we can learn that those with lots of power aren't more intelligent than most. They get greedy etc

Tomorrow google maps will show Lake Ontario and Gulf of Mexico and they will put black history month back on their calendar.

They went all in on installing technofeudalism and red and blue states are adopting mass surveillance an AI data centers so it kinda seems like they’re still winning

[–] thinkingofyouihaveananxietydisorder@quokk.au 0 points 6 days ago (1 children)

true. that's why they need to be killed. t

[–] Formfiller@lemmy.world 1 points 6 days ago (1 children)

They need to be arrested for sure

no. no don't let them hang out with their cop retainers. they need to be killed. they were out openly collaborating fasch. the things they admitted to and lobbied for in public are enough to warrant death. they did much much worse. they need to die. it needs to be a spectacle. their bunkers need to be raided. their bedrooms need to be flashed and filled with chemical weapons as armed men storm in and kill everything that moves.

no trial will survive this amount of money. they worked against the concept of democracy. they worked against the concept of justice. if they aren't just killed they will be released and it will happen again. they need to be killed.

Never forgive, never forget.

they need to be punished. we should set up pages to remember which of them collaborated and how. make little shrines when they're punished.

[–] OctopusNemeses@lemmy.world 23 points 1 week ago (3 children)

They were going to lose anyway. Everyone seems to memoryhole that the Biden administration was on the verge of forcing Google to sell of chrome. They were probably going to enforce more antitrust on big tech.

But of course people memoryholed it. They control what you see and think.

It's no surprise they comply with Trump's arbitrary whims. The tech industry didn't gamble. Trump was their only choice.
