Almighty Algorithm to generate profit off of our atomization and society's commodification of petty internet drama.

Facebook's Threads is so depressing by Jason O. Gilbert
https://jogblog.substack.com/p/facebooks-threads-is-so-depressing>>2874576My mistake, an retardê*
I struggle with english.
>>2874484Why does a film based on an epic poem need to be "historically accurate"? None of that shit happened bro
>>2874370argentina is woke compared to chile
>>2874409rightoids inventing people to be mad about again
>>2874181>Maggie Thatcher's ghost?I'm pretty sure THatcher would be impressed with Labor herself. She could not express it out of respect for the paper thin kayfabe, but she'd love what they are doing with the place.
>>2874660I lost a couple of my few remaining brain cells from reading this.
>>2874596because these people are retards that understand culture as an aesthetic. which is why they jizz their pants to pictures of neo classicistic marble statues.
>>2874521because creating a dogshit comic by hand requires you to spend hours making it all while thinking you actually have a good point. ai meanwhile is effortless and quick, so there is far less friction between shower thought and post
>>2874751This is the moment we've all been waiting for: when retarded celebrity #8342356 becomes a communist. The revolution is here comrades.
>>2874885>Trotsky would have been a better leaderhauntological nonsense from Trots as usual
>>2874409Why can't these losers just manually edit thier retarded ai slop so it doesn't look so ass with inconsistencies? AI generated images are usually low rez so editing them with smudge and airbrush tools very easy.
>>2874885>Trotsky would have been a better leaderabsolute trvth nvke
>>2874751This is your "Sovintern", guys.
All roads lead back to the ICP.
>>2874596>None of that shit happened brohow do you know? were you there?
>>2874596People build their lives around movie slop. It’s just another spectacle for these nerds to fight over in place of religion.
>>2874596Herodotus claims that the Aetheopians are the most beautiful people in the world, so Helen of Troy being black makes sense. Also, there was a black character in the Iliad, an Aetheopian prince (iirc) named Memnon. And that's beside the fact that many Greek deities were imports from Asia and Africa and openly acknowledged as such at the time.
They don't really care about accuracy or anything like that. They're just racist, or at best grifters making money off of racists.
>>2873879I can't take anyone wasting time on bashing Hasan seriously, especially when retards were in here pretending to care about his dog.
>>2875112>historical connection<"our Jewish religious lamentation holiday about our collective grief due to antisemitic violence includes homeless people fighting against their children being gleefully murdered for finance landlords on Oct 7th"I don't think its a good idea to retroactively make the holocaust seem like Germans trying to stop their kids from being denied food and healthcare. You really shouldn't imply that all anti-Jewish violence was people defending against their kids being sacrifices to Baal
>>2875144israelis committing every single blood libel with gusto and posting it to insta reinvigorated anti-semitism. this is nobody's fault but the israelis. arguing with kids posting austrian painter memes is a waste of time and counterproductive: point out the israeli war crimes, and point out that the "combatting anti-semitism" orgs spreading anti-muslim racial hate and israeli propaganda are legitimising anti-semitism.
>>2875419>Why this moron won't talk about real working class strugglesleftoids don't care about that shit, would probably get 25% of his current views
>>2875427>>2875419he's more like an ultra….
what's the word for content creators that thrive through rage-bait engagement?
engagement-farmer? rage-farmer? there's a specific one-online-word for them. like:
>>2874409well, he's basically that.
btw, gunther (david freeman) insta-blocks you if you ever bring that court case, and even his name.
>>2874883 >>2875446>ultrahe is a socdem
>>2875454he is a dengist actually
>>2875455whats the difference?
>>2875419I've tried talking about LAX working conditions to leftists and they've had like 1% of the conversational energy input compared to when they talk about transhumanists or brown people, BE is just one of them
>>2875455he's sendero luminoso

Fucking Epsteinites in my aim
They will die in the flame
1488 the same
Total Epstein death I claim
>>2875419Dysgenic sex pest, sex tourist who fled to Argentina for underage kids. Looks exactly like all the 4chan losers you read in the news caught with CP
>>2875568Meh. My conspiracy theory is that their backers are aware and it's by design, acp is meant to be a double glow back room liaison between us intelligence and american rivals, their schizo all over the place politics makes them harmless and safe for their purpose
>>2875575Pretty sure that happened to the LaRouche guys.
