Oh, so it turns out that "genius billionaires" only exist in comic books?

Nobody could have seen that one coming!

It's amazing to me just how hassle-free it is to use Lemmy as opposed to reddit.

Rddit just feels like it's actively trying to get you to leave it.

You know, in some ways, I appreciate Musk. He has gone out of his way to demonstrate, for all to see, how billionaire parasites get to fail upward no matter how irredeemably incompetent and vile they happen to be.

Scumwads like gates and Bezos hides it all behind walls of pr propaganda, but not Musk.

I wonder what a cyberguillotine would look like.

Sooo... the working class should own the means of production?

Oh look... Apartheid-boy is moving his company to a more overtly white supremacist location and blaming his daughter for it.

I am so surprised.

It is a musician's business to know who they are performing for and why - and the more famous they are, the more it starts to matter. Grohl knows this.

The people on here who is excusing this with "capitalism bad except when people I like is doing it" arguments is just demonstrating how empty "liberal values" get when push comes to shove.

Since when has feeding us misinformation been a problem for capitalist parasites like Pichai?

Misinformation is literally the first line of defense for them.

Bookmarking this for the next time white supremacists here in good ole' South Africa peddles the "privatisation is the only thing that will fix our electricity problems!" bullcrap.

Thanks, Texas!

As a chili pepper lover myself I absolutely do not get this garbage trope of treating chili pepper consumption as some kind of contest. The idea is to add heat to your food - not prove your pathetic "manliness."

In my opinion, anything above Habanero is just pointless masochism for no good reason at all.

Lots of people showing up real fast to make excuses for white supremacists doing white supremacism.... now why does that sound so familiar?

Oh, right... I'm South African!

The old capitalists were smart... they knew that hiding behind politicians camouflaged the class structure that enabled their privilege and power. But now it seems they've forgotten the lesson of the guillotine...
