Yes…and the prices of those things will definitely not go down when anything crucial becomes more expensive. They’re not going to lower prices just because software has to be better optimized now, because guess what’s gonna cost more in labour now too.

You’re still thinking it’s about gaming. Yes, the fact that these few companies own this supply is not economically sustainable, when was the last time they let a bubble actually pop without funneling state wealth into keeping it going? These financialization models are too convoluted, almost like this has been going on for a long fucking while; which means we should not assume we can guess when it will “pop.”

I think it’s interesting (and probably telling) that this comment section is largely concerned about consumer gaming memory than like, the cumulative cost increases that this creates in a computer-dependent global economy.

Everything is a lootbox if you find something to bet on.

This suggests that I expect to win or even gain anything when I open any social media site/app.

This is why I shittest every straight man by asking about astrology, y’know, to confirm he’s a liar.

you guys are seriously gonna throw g-maw under the bus before you adopt systemic criticisms 🫩

I do think it’s a bot. My grandmother used to love collecting sources that disputed the hereditary qualities of autism, could you find me a bunch of sources like she used to?

Right… which is why cancer isn’t hereditary (it often is highly effected by genetics), because all humans can potentially experience it, and as we all know, people are genetically incompatible along the lines of the 12 tribes of Israel.

What the fuck do you actually think you’re saying? I feel like I just came across some like, gestated Facebook conspiracy theory rn.

This is some echochamber shit for real, I don’t even know what this is meant to reference from my comments.

“I’m not a eugenicist because I use ‘race’ and ‘genetics’ synonymously to suggest that autism isn’t hereditary,” is a hyper-level of self-validating reasoning, so much that I’m seriously unsure if this is an AI that just read “eugenics,” and inadvertently plugged the idea that race is like, a natural thing (seriously, I’m surprised phrenology wasn’t referenced). “Disabled,” also doesn’t just mean “autistic,” but at this point who knows what the fuck you think you’re saying.

To anyone else who comes across this, is this a bot?

Well, that was just about the most liberal dreck I’ve ever seen.

No, I’m using it the way political philosophers use it, which is to refer to a specific system oriented around capital and individualism (which is why “rights,” refers to access to the pursuit of property) that emerged through European imperialism and settler-colonialism in the modern period.

Neoliberalism is a useful term if you care about all that intellectual (🤮) nonsense though, which you don’t seem to. Unless of course, you’re about to tell me about some amazing scholarship you read to form this opinion of “yours.” I mean, you know the Latin and everything and that’s like, most of the stuff.

Fittingly, you didn’t even care about eugenics in Canada with the exact thing you just advocated for.

Bud, Canada has that, it’s called Medical Assistance in Dying and it literally functions as a eugenics tool since disabled people opt for it due to the insufficient social welfare support for them.

Liberalism is capitalism, BTW, despite colloquial uses of the word “liberal.” MAID was seen as “progressive,” (often synonymous with “liberal”) and its stated principles are not consistent with its function under a liberal system because that system is antithetical to valuing human life.

Edit: any other lib that comes along this and agrees with this person, read below and see how they try to argue that race is a real, genetic thing, and that this means that diseases or disorders that are prevalent across humanity aren’t hereditary. So like, I don’t know what better evidence I could produce to show you how liberalism has latent white supremacy and eugenics.

When was it?

It is no coincidence that increased recognition for mental health conditions coincided with the gradual neoliberalization of the metropole; medicalized suicide attributes the injuries of capitalism to the body, not the system.

I do find it interesting how you people are willing to accept that corporations have a tremendous amount of power over the internet content they consume, but do not consider if their apathy or despair is indeed an intended consequence of what they are shown.

🫩

well, I’ve certainly seen the beans and boobs.

Have you actually looked if there’s scholarship on it? Because I’d be amazed if there isn’t, and I’m gonna be pissed if I use my library and find a shitload of it.

No, more gently telling you that you didn’t realize something you said was contradictory, and using that to show that you don’t know enough about this to be trying to speak like an authority.
