  • For one your video game hobby doesn’t involve states subsidizing stadiums to be built moving money from public services and education amongst other things so that a new flashy stadium can be built whenever they decide the old one’s no longer good. It’s so bad it’s even done at high school’s foregoing science and other education programs but will definitely be getting those flashier stadium and sport facilities. It’s morbidly hilarious. It happens across the entire country. And if you’re going to try and say “but it creates jobs” let me just say, lmao, and if you think its an adequate trade check out the recent test score data and reading aptitude nation wide. We are going to have to live amongst these people that can barely read and write eventually. But at least we got that cool stadium that one time.



  • “Doomscrolling” is infinitely more productive. At least then you’re staying up to date and getting information that actually matters about the place you live and the planet you’re on. Ignoring it and calling it “Doomscrolling” is exactly how they’re hoping you’ll react. But whatever you want to do dude if you think memorizing facts about our society and planet is less productive than knowing the history or stats of some sports team where they trade players regularly no amount of conversation will convince you.





  • The NFL and superbowl certainly still plays its role well. Colosseum bread and circus still very much works. Distract, pacify, forget, worry about this other thing that has perceptive stakes you could identify with and back and feel the illusory risk of none real consequences if you align with one of the teams. Lost the political one with the real actual consequences that have more or less destroyed the country you grew up in possibly forever? Maybe a sports victory will help placate you, feel the rush of this victory ignore how you and your family in fact lost it all.




  • It’s been plagued by bots for like 15 years and the last 5 AI has been the killing blow of it being entirely useless it used to be the place to get actual humans talking about things and giving each other real advice from their lived experience and now it’s just a ton of AI pretending. And as it continues to recursively feed off itself it’ll continue to become total trash. With my conspiracy cap on it’s being done on purpose to destroy any other avenue of public discourse and control every single thing people see, think and now think that’s what other people must be thinking too. It’s passively establishing and enforcing information control and conformity to ideals. There’s a ton of 70s and 80s movies about this exact type of dystopia being established. Recommend everyone give Colossus: The Forbin Project a watch were like a stones throw from losing control.
