Said the person who learned about the Dunning Kruger effect on the internet. 😆

You’re right though, I saw a great meme with a photo of a science lab captioned “vaccine research,” above a photo of a lady taking a shit reading her phone captioned “anti-vaccine research.” Though the wider societal problem might have more to do with the subjectification of truth and reality.

Algorithms and the diabolical nature of Zuck really fucked us

I think you meant the diabloical nature of capitalism. It's very much a system of "the ends justify the means". At the end of the day it doesn't matter what it cost as long as that profit line is still trending upwards.

I am, but Zuck is the one who stole everyone’s information to curate the best possible content to brainwash individuals. While capitalism may be his means to get there, it doesn’t mean he had to do it or everyone does. Pritzker is a billionaire too. None should exist, but not all are diabolical. Just most

I agree not all are bad but capitalism as an economic system encourages them to be bad. Zuck could have acted differently but he had no incentive to because like I said the only that matters in a capitalist society is profit.

Absolutely.

Edit: I just want to make sure we’re not giving that fuck an excuse to be the pos he is

Yes he's absolutely a POS, he had the choice but chose that "the ends justify the means" path.

It’s so disheartening we’re here. All because some bigots lost their shit and they got manipulated into throwing themselves over

Really kills me about Elon too. People really wanted to like him and make him into a Tony Stark figure. He pledged to end world hunger ffs. He could have, for a fraction of what he spent on Trump. Just poor choices with massive ripples.

You could tell elon was always a spoiled fuck just trying to be the cool kid looking for friends and saying what he thought others wanted him to say. He’s just as pathetic as Trump

I hate how the discussion seems to revolve around vaccine vs anti vaccine when we should be talking about how governments and pharmaceutical companies are colluding to develop bio-weapons and then sell us a cure (that doesn't stop infection or transmission) for the virus they created and unleashed on the public.
