    My comment was plainly about corporations and pricing.

    you’re already on lemmy so you’re part of the way there – just start browsing the instances that the centrists and liberals are telling you to stay away from because it’s filled w tankies.

    I’ve been the rest of the way there and you and your tankie Lemmy instances can shove it.

      you’re so close and yet so far lol

      at least lemmy will be here once you decide to stop doomscrolling and blaming AI for what billionaires are making it do.

          The fact that you’re talking about surveillance pricing specifically and they’re talking about AI in general doesn’t mean you’re not 100% wrong about everything. Nobody who uses “Tankie” as a perjorative is on the right side of anything.

              you should write down your thoughts on why all this ai fuckery is happening around you, using a more permanent medium.

              as @DudleyMason@lemmy.ml pointed out, history tends to be unkind to people who think like you – largely because historians have to use the breadcrumbs that survived time to conjecture at why people like you believe what you do. the result is – invariably – a wildly inaccurate, two-dimensional popular understanding of what regressive people from the past were actually like as human beings.

              take anti-abolitionists, for example: their position was the overwhelming popular sentiment for centuries as yours is today, and the tankies of that time were derided for wanting to end slavery. today, the popular consensus is that all anti-abolitionists were simply racist dumb fucks, but that’s far from the truth – there were real reasons slavery persisted, and good, honest people supported it.

              if people in the future had access to your thoughts the way tankies have access to lenin’s and marx’s thoughts, it could paint a fuller picture of why this well-documented system of oppression we have today should continue to exist – just as anti-abolitionists believed slavery should continue to exist.

                Is that an assignment, professor? After reading the first line and then seeing who wrote it I didn’t bother looking at the the rest. I’m not going to play chess with a pigeon, but you can still fly back to your flock to declare victory.

                Your previous comments made it clear that you’re utterly convinced you’re a blessing to everyone around you and we should all be grateful you stopped by to share your wisdom. I’m sure you’ve continued your bloviating, but I’m not the least bit interested in being bored by your condescending, pompous lectures.

                Find someone else.

                  i’ll simplify it for you then: use your passive-agressive energy to the benefit of humanity – write down why you support oppression so that people in the future won’t automatically assume that people like you were just morons.

                  I think that response makes it plain that the worst possible motivation future historians might ascribe will still be woefully short of how awful you ShitLibs actually are, or how banal and mundane your reasons for supporting an utterly evil status quo are.

                    I’ve been laughing about this all afternoon.

                    You are so full of yourself that you actually believe future historians are gonna look back and say, “If only Lemmy had listened to DudleyMason@lemmy.ml, everything would have been just fine!”

                    Do you have any idea how fucking laughable and absurd you and your ilk are?

                    Another day, another .ml professor wants to share his amazing insights with the lowly public! You idiots must travel in flocks.

                    Not going to play chess with pigeons from .ml no matter what your user names are.

                    You can play each other, shit on the board, knock over the pieces, and then squawk about your glorious victories to the rest of your flock. Just think, everyone will cheer chirp in harmony!

                    Hope you two have fun!
