Stop being lazy and learn how to make your own shit. You aren't entitled to other people's skills.

So long as it's not a glorified machine learning program designed to commit mass fraud and copyright infringement, then yes. Until then, go cry harder.

Questions for everybody else:

1. Who actually thinks like this?
2. Why are big Lemmy instances allowing obvious shills to concern troll and forum slide on their servers?

Okay, let me tell you a little story then.

I've actually done a lot more traveling than most humans anywhere will in a lifetime. On foot. Across half a continent. I rebuilt my life from literally nothing and now have some measure of wealth.

I am your walking, talking, right-wing American dream and I am telling you your defense of this evil system and this evil society is immoral and you're not going to convince anyone to adopt your beliefs, or convince people to withdraw, or stop consensus against it from forming, or convince anyone to just accept it.

No one here is going to accept it. We are going to change it. We are going to take back control of our legal system from you and pass laws banning stuff you want, like prison labor, child abuse, slavery of any kind for any reason including wage slavery, restructure the economy to actually take care of the American people without them having to pay much if anything for it. All of those things and more, because we accept that that's fair and just.

I've seen cities completely destroyed by homelessness, drugs, rampant income inequality, and kept down by governments in collision with big businesses and the cults they formed to justify and defend their behavior -- of which you are a part. I scraped my way out of destitution myself and I know no one else should ever have to go through that. So I know the others are right, and you are wrong.

And you're really powerless to stop us.

I'd argue this guy probably had his original identity beaten out of him by his scumfuck parents and he resorted to adopting theirs to avoid violence from them, and that is why he thinks the way he does. And if true, he doesn't really benefit from the system either, but is just a brainwashed victim of it.

Everybody in America does labor under the threat of a whip unless they're an unemployed adult hanging out in the boonies somewhere.

Corporations buy that prison labor so your point falls flat on its face.

Arguably almost all of them since they all seem to engage in some unethical behavior or another for profit.

A better question is to name which ones haven't.

All legal systems are inherently unjust and incapable of actually holding evil people responsible for their actions. Most people in jail don't actually belong in there and, quite frankly, it'd be far more humane to kill anyone who actually does than to use them to keep the institution of slavery going.

And now the U.S. is facing a second civil war because material conditions have largely unchanged, and the slavery issue is still unresolved, because of those attitudes.

What would it take you to prioritize other people's rights over your desires for cheap shit?

The naming schemes he's talking about are taken from marketing.

Russia's actively committing genocide and threatens nuclear war against anyone who directly intervenes, so there's that.

I agree with you though. The U.S. is just a third world country with a nice coat of paint at this point.

Lol EVERYTHING we do is necessary for our survival, because of the fact that it's humans doing it.

That's not what progress looks like, but you do you, fam. We'll be over here on our new federated sites watching stuff made by actual human beings while Hollywood starves to death as everyone else stops watching that garbage.

Or we will campaign the federal government to ban the tech outright and your lazy shill ass will have to actually do something useful to make a living.

Do you understand how art works at all?

That's what makes it especially insidious. We want entertainment made by people, for people, not by AIs for corporations and their pockets.

The word "colored" shouldn't be used in a race context at all.

My guy, the military is nothing but a bunch of people running around in body armor shooting people. The physical requirements for all genders are anachronistic at best.

So they actually meant Not Applicable? My bad, I thought they misspelled it.
