Hashtags are key. You can follow hashtags as well as people to find content fitted to your liking. Then you’ll find people using the hashtags that you can follow from there.

Correct. However the most popular explanation is that technological evolution outstrips cultural evolution resulting in civilizations destroying themselves before they can attain interstellar travel

Is that you, Elon?

And, thank you :)

People love their greath merchants apparently.

“Sam Altman is a merchant of #Greath.”

There are multiple entendres happening in this “ridiculously petty” or “mind numbingly dumb” little meme.

Thank you! 😘

Does it really? Or, do you only look at pictures when you “read.” See my recent response to PugJesus below. You commit the same logical fallacy. Sure, it’s (perhaps) a direct rebuttal to the pictures. But, the meme is more than that if you actually read the words. And, the words are the “argument.”

So, to answer your question: Yes. I understand logical fallacies well. PugJesus “sets up and attacks a position that is not being debated.”

The meme has to do with “ancient tech” vs. “progress.” The pictures could be “old internet” vs enshittified internet. Or, a calculator vs chatGPT. Or, old electric cars vs tech platforms with wheels.

The point being what we often call “progress” is in fact the opposite. You know, the “words” I “actually used” in the meme … vs. the straw man you created.

Theories abound as to why toddlers are more interested in things that “defy expectation.” The bouncier, the more attraction. The shinier, the more the attraction … etc. Marketers know this well and exploit it. We’re not logical — we knee jerk react instead actually thinking about the thing in front of us.

Like assuming, without really thinking about it, that this meme is about glass vs. plastic.

No. It’s about the title. Again, the words I “said.” Which were “The Human Condition.”

Thank you for providing a stunning exemplar of my point.

Is that a “straw man” I smell?

Bullseye 🎯

Judgie AF ENTJ here. Anyone that says they’re not judgmental is a lying virtue signaler.

They’re fucking hypocrites. That why it’s been upvoted so much. People detest hypocrisy.

Any time I see pepe the frog … I think “twat with pimples and zero life masturbating to pics of Elon.”

That’s highly dependent on the instance admins.

I mean seriously, it’s like complaining about stepping on rakes while continuing to sprint through a field of rakes.

Gee Whiz … pretty easy way to solve that problem. STOP SENDING THEM AID AND WEAPONS!!!

In an ironic twist, the defining characteristic of socialists in America, is also one of the defining characteristics of being American: “Butbutbut … MY socialism is bigger than YOUR socialism.”

Give it a rest people … ORGANIZE!
