The purpose of a system is what it does. So I agree.
(RealPage isn't the only problematic software that does this either. Check up on how rental rates are set and then jacked up in storage facilities, owned predominantly by 2/3 companies)
The point being, these things still break down and contribute microplastics to the environment and leach out their chemicals, especially when walked on, as they are being used for.
This is greenwashing, and with the egyptian governments laundering of state funds into their own pockets, I doubt anything beneficial will come from this.
Ok. I wasn't going to respond again, but it seems you have a real issue with figurative language.
The original comment mentioned wanting "these dinosaurs" to go extinct, referring to the outdated, controversial politicians who say anything to get attention. I extended the metaphor by suggesting people should be the “asteroid” that drives these “dinosaurs” to extinction, referencing Gandhi's philosophy in a humorous way.
When I say "be an asteroid," I’m obviously not advocating for the extinction of all life or suggesting people should commit violence. If that’s what you took from it, that interpretation reflects more on you than it does on me.
The Gandhi paraphrase I used is "Be the change you wish to see in the world," which aligns with his teachings of non-violent protest.
The point is simple: if you don’t like these people being in power, take action—vote, organize, inform, and educate. Change comes through engagement, not literal destruction.If that’s too hard to grasp, then perhaps this discussion isn’t for you.
Be the thing that drives them to extinction. Way to make me explain the joke there buddy. Literal interpretation is not the only interpretation. Vote. Organize. Inform. Educate. Have compassion when those in your life change their minds.
Yea.. I got that much. I want to know why good why bad.
