    Who watches this slop? I just… why. There are so many good books, movies, tv shows, whatever. Stop watching slop.

      I am currently re-reading a series from the 70s-80s that is full of typos and I thoroughly enjoy every one of them. They’re always obvious errors from the typesetter, who I imagine was drunk at the time.

      Facebook boomers. Last week’s John Oliver episode covered this topic and featured videos about GOP ‘owning’ people in court. It’s honestly just sad.

        I stopped watching John Oliver because it just gets my blood level up. He just goes out, highlights a critical failure of society, and then we all nod, nothing changes, and now I fucking hate loans or whatever the topic is.

        But Ill watch this. Impossible for me to get even angrier at Facebook boomers.

    Sometimes it feels like having a conscience just isn’t financially viable any more.

    I wish I could be this unethical. I’d be able to stop going to the food bank.

    People are really dumb and will watch anything.

    Where are the AI videos with wild claims about Trump? They don’t even need to be wild claims just AI videos of things he’s done. People will fucking watch them and we can manipulate them. We need to use the lemmings.

    The high road has been destroyed, only the low road remains.

      The man has done more than plenty without making junk up. Taking this approach just will not change minds or help anyone, if reality hasn’t done it fiction certainly won’t.

      I sympathize with the perspective. We already have so much ammunition and intermixing falsehoods just reduces the overall trustworthiness of the genuine messages that need to be disseminated.

      Hey, at least reality TV has real people in real scripted events with real editors and real producers creating a real false narrative!
