I'm sure. Enjoy your nuggies!

Edit: Wow, you added so many big words! Did momma forget your sauce again?

Hey, you’re an expert: do you think the uptick in the number of sticky-fingered midwesterners around here is a sign that Lemmy’s finally reaching a wider, less technical audience?

natarey , to Just Post in Nope. No.

I will never understand why Americans insist on simping so hard for billion dollar companies. Is it the lead in the drinking water? Is it the lack of healthcare? Is is the terrible state of their education? Truly baffling.

Just like every piece of AI-generated slop!

natarey , to Videos in Does YouTube Shorts resemble Tiktok?

I don't know why, but my Shorts feed is nothing but weirdo right wingers, huge muscle dudes, and conspiracy videos -- and I'm a middle aged liberal woman who mostly watches sewing tutorials on YouTube. And there's absolutely nothing I can do to convince YouTube that these people can fuck off. It's a nightmare.

The main difference is the quality of the algorithm serving up the videos. YouTube Shorts is the worst, most piss-poor shit I’ve ever seen. Like, it’s “someone should probably be fired” bad.

natarey , to Climate - truthful information about climate, related activism and politics. in Big Oil Clouded the Science on Extreme Weather. Now It Faces a Reckoning.

I've heard that before, too. I'm in the US, so I've got reason to be pessimistic about the reliability of the courts when it comes to holding wealthy people and corporations accountable.

Yeah, but do they, though? I've heard this before, and they're as indifferent now as they've ever been.

natarey , to General Discussion in Does this plan make sense? v3

I’ve sort of come to the conclusion that the spirit of the times has turned toward chaos and away from stability. These sorts of vague political commitments no longer have the power to avert the disaster we’re facing. We are fully in the grip of vast, impersonal historical forces again, and just have to see what happens.

It has no chance of becoming a reality

You could have just stopped there. Every item on this list is antithetical to the interests of the people who rule us.

natarey , to politics in Nearly half of Democrats disapprove of Biden’s response to the Israel-Hamas war, AP-NORC poll shows

This reply sort of makes the point for the OP though -- the American system appears to be broken at levels so fundamental that it's not worth engaging with, much less saving. It's amazing the evil that people are comfortable shrugging at.
