No snoot, there’d be crabs!!
This meme is false.
Instructions unclear: I’ve lost all money to alimony and have no money left for Arabic lessons.

I known of linuxmemes, but no general topic ones.

Maroon@lemmy.worldto The Onion@midwest.social•Chris Pratt Announced As New Voice of RFK Jr.English5·20 days agoOK, I’m going to ask it here because I am completely out of the loop. Why do so many people hate Chris Pratt so bad? I even went to his wiki page and didn’t find anything really egregious about him (at least nothing worse than some of the other folks in the industry).

Maroon@lemmy.worldto Comic Strips@lemmy.world•If There Were Robots That Made the Perfect Amount of Food for Everybody25·27 days agoThe human population is about 8 billion and our food production capacity is enough to feed 12 billion.
In a capitalist system, food production becomes the means of earning money. This does not imply quality nor suitability. With a lack of a penalty mechanism in place to serve as a feedback mechanism, the distribution networks are primed to deliver and waste rather than ensure equitable supply.
Even with 0% food waste on the plate, loss due to corporate policies is still staggeringly high.

This comic assumes Peterson is also “hacking away” in the forest of ignorance, when in reality is the one sowing seeds of misinformation and stupidity everywhere.

I feel this is more aligned with the YouTube influencers who peddle products, amass wealth, buy a house, and give a tour of their new place. When someone in the comment points out that the companies they advertise are evil and their products are harmful to consumers/ environment, these influencers quickly cough up some “charity” special (where again they ask for donations) and divert attention.
Maroon@lemmy.worldto Technology@lemmy.world•Substack promoted a Nazi blog againEnglish23·2 months agoNote that the largest Nazi groups today are in the “allied” nations that “won” WW2.
I read a piece (can’t find the source now, sorry) that blamed this squarely on the lack of education and remorse given to the colonial backdrop in which WW2 was fought.
Most parts of the world view WW2 as very much a European war that was imposed on unwilling global participants. The axis powers lost and Germany has since tried its best to reinvent itself while acknowledging its chequered past (check out: Vergangenheitsbewältigung), but the allied powers failed to recognise their colonial atrocities. For example, British history textbooks will loosely allude to the British empire saying that they were once a dominating global entity, but will make absolutely no mention of the numerous massacres and genocides for which they were responsible.
When wars are framed as competitions rather than tragedies, you will see the emergence of false victors instead of acknowledging lost generations. This directly results in a poor public understanding of how bad ideas can fester and hollow out any society.
AAAAARRRGGHHHHHHH… MY EYES. What the fuck OP.
Come on, that’s such a horrible take. People love to shit on customer service jobs, or editorial services and cast them aside saying AI will flush them out.
But now try to use a company’s helpline or trying getting a serious piece of literature copyedited and it will be one of the worst experiences you will have. AI technically “does their job”, but it is so shitty.
