I’m honestly just glad it brought the left and the right together! 🥰Give more CEOs bunnies, get more unity? Working class solidarity, ya’ll. 🥳

If the government cared, they could compel them to be transparent about this stuff but…

Surprised cowbee didn’t post this but I think you need this: Leftist Reading List

I was reading a Facebook post about how UHC denied a kid their anti-rejection meds for a liver transplant because there was a cheaper one the kid had already had a bad reaction to, and they thought he should give that one a try again first… 🤦

Yes, but we can all, even the stupid, agree on a few things, surely?

I like to think that they’re all just non-voting leftists - it helps get me through the day.

Even if it’s egregiously overstated (Al Franken).

Have you been in a similar headspace and were able to escape it? If so, what snapped you out of it?

Presently and no.

Most didn’t, they fell for the third party choice.

There’s a dad jokes lemmy!

No, they just believe in the honesty of people. Well, that and they probably also figured that having an aggregate of answers and the upvote/downvote system, they can ferret out a response.

And how does one do that while meming “the man, the myth, the legend”?

No, if they want to be gendered appropriately, they should have it in their username.

though I’ve been saying “munis” for short.

“comms” is my go-to.

I always railed against this. I’m using clockwise-lockwise from now on.

In countries without capitalism and property rights, the billionaires are the government and the judiciary and the military.

In the US, they just have solidified a really good means of controlling it… I mean, the amount we don’t tax them, the super PACs we let them contribute to, and the control they have over our media are definitely forms of control that may not be “as bad” as other systems (arguably) but it seems like it’s really similar.

If you see anyone online show the search results and pricing on Amazon, then try to replicate those search results and product price on a device that is totally partitioned from your viewing of the item/price elsewhere, you’re likely to find it is not possible. If you then go back to the original device and do the same, you’ll magically find the same product and lower price.

I noticed this on Walmarts website when asking chat GPT to find items for me. I was wondering why it was happening. Some of the price differences were extreme too.

Let me guess, the EU actually put laws in place to ”remediate that problem” like a ”functioning government”.

And I’m honestly surprised they let you do that many password tries. I would seriously consider changing banks.

It’s YA but I suggest Hatchet because it’s the book I remember actually making an impression on me.
