We should have a standardized government approved and facilitated electronic banking system for all payments in the US.

There should be no private company gaining access to payment information or taking their cut for the majority of transactions.

The fact that there is in my opinion is predatory. These are the worst kind of companies, milking old technology without innovating or adding any real value.

Leaving the EU wasn't enough. The real problem is within us. Not just the immigrants, but the dirty immigrant lovers!

Once we have forced all the foreigners out and cut off all interactions with Europe and the rest of the world we can finish isolating our youth and snuffing out their future. We can then enslave them for our benefit in useless jobs they will hate.

You see, we just want to Make United Kingdom the Same Again! MUKSA!

So pretty much what has already been happening for the last 150 or so years.

I think you are right that AI is just an excuse to get rid of labor. The truth is they want all the money without paying anyone because they are just greedy fucks. This is the perfect excuse.

Uhh, laid people off because "AI". The truth is they are just going to experiment with how many people they can lay off. Once again, can't blame the person laying everyone off because everyone knows it is all imaginary AI's fault.

It would be a great solution for most media only because computers are so fast and have excellent connections nowadays. I think if everyone just hosts their own content through a system like this we can preserve even niche content.

Obviously there would be some serious technical hurdles such as search. It wouldn't be a magic bullet, but a good compromise to the top-down Monopoly we have now.

This is perfect to show people how to deal with even minor enshitification.

Don't do what we did to get rich! No, stop...

Hell no, they pay taxes but get none of the benefits. Just like supply-side Jesus intended.

I will never understand how AOTUS claimed victory in withdrawing from Afghanistan only to have it immediately taken over by the Taliban during Biden's administration. All the while gloating that Biden couldn't back out of his fuckup.

It is the most collosal fuckup of modern US policy and shows everything we did was for nothing. If you are going to play world democracy police then at least deliver something for 20 trillion dollars!

YouTube has to be replaced with a decentralized torrent-like based system where every user shares the load with what they are watching.

A person who has to ponder about whether a pet or human is more important should not be allowed in leadership over people.

This remind me of a friend I knew who was homeless and a bit of an addict. He could not get anyone to work on his teeth so they were in really bad shape and he ended up losing them years later.

While he was a grown adult, who was responsible for himself, he did ask his parents for help (paying dentist directly, of course). His mother cited thousands of dollars in vet bills as a reason she could not help. His parents were very well off.

I can't even with people anymore. They would let a homeless person die of exposure, but would happily take in a stray until they find it's owner. Our priorities are truly fucked.

Anyone questioning you at this point is an obvious shill.
