A thing never mentioned in these debates is that noone in the world is buying tiktok without buying the underlying algorithm, the same algorithm the app runs on worldwide, the algorithm is the special sauce. They are not going to sell the basis for their app just for a single payday in the US market, which after buying it, they could rebrand and then once successful in the US, compete in the global market against tiktok but with the income of the most lucrative app market in the world behind them. It’s an extremely stupid business move.

Democracy can never exist in a two party system.

I found this out after getting past security but before entering the venue. I had shit cell service and was just finding out I had to download, create an account for, and sign into their app, I was outside for maybe 10 minutes. Funny how they dont make you do any of this to buy the ticket, only after I paid money for it. AXS can suck my dick.

Well yeah, that’s my point, social media was new at that time when antivax was a meme, now it’s mainstream. Social media just allowed stupid people to spread stupidity at an alarming rate, then we as a society learned how to manipulate effectively through social media. It’s not like social media is some force of nature that accidently fucked up society. Social media is a tool that the richest and worst people in society used to fuck up society.

This is the guns don’t kill people argument.

Who use social media to spread influence.

Well I remember when being antivax was a meme around 2008.

2 and 3 are the obvious choices, however id pick 3 and 5. Here are the only interesting pills available.

(2) You can sell it

(3) that’s enough to go through a wall

(5) a smart toaster has a circuit board that you could mcgyver into sending commands outside of itself, allowing ur toaster to be an entry point to computer telepathy.

(6) Would be funny to feed this one to a person who had just died and watch their color come back, really fuck with the autopsy

(9) Instantly cures any physical ailments preventing you from running/walking (unless we mean current albert einstein, in which case corpses cant move.)

I think people will figure something out when they begin to study the magical limb disappearing event and they find out you’re the only person alive who was unaffected.

So yes this is normal, and it will get worse, but if you stay fit you’ll still be able to drink and stay up late, as long as you drink a lot of water.
