To the shock of no one. I’m baffled they didnt just cut their losses and cancel the show. The IP is great but show…it’s just not it.

It is a functional monopoly. I would be shocked if wasnt also a monopsony effect going on here where many devs are disproportionately getting their revenue from Steam and as such are functionally mandated a Steam release.

I know we’re trying to be funny but is the joke…people lost their SNAP benefits and can’t afford a turkey? What’s…funny?

I’m not even trying to be the woke police someone please help me understand.

Edit: also if the point is just generally feel angry and ashamed by the callousness of the current admin then that’s where I am currently at.

The not US baby! We’re rolling clean coal over here! Or something like that I’m not sure what the story is today.

DSA is, in my opinion, currently the most viable leftist organization in the US. It is certainly the biggest and most active one in my area.

Originally I joined because I wanted to get involved locally just somehow. I didnt know what to do and found the most organized leftist group to join to learn the skills I was clearly missing.

I know people like to shit on DSA because there are the most baby leftists in it imaginable who often treat it as a pool activists they can tap for their capitalist adjacent reforms. There is truth to this in some chapters. Some of the largest chapters in the DSA like NYC and LA are so big they get NGO brain sometimes and lose sight of the mission.

From where I am sitting there is a clear path to move the national politics of this group towards being a true party of the people with designs to bring about socialism and eventually communism.

I am an applicant to the Marxist Unity Group caucus and strongly believe in their vision for the future of this org. It is our duty to bring these lessons to the working class to merge socialism with the worker movement. To build truly Democratic structures and bring them to the masses to show them another way is possible. We need a social democracy in this country and we have go to where the people are - imo that’s DSA. I dont think its lying to people its educating them out of their infantile understanding of what is necessary for us to cohere a national movement to take our country back.

I have much to criticize about DSA but I’m here because I want to help change it and educate people on why our path is the necessary one to move in the direction of Revolution and emancipation. I am surrounded by communist comrades in this org who feel similarly. MUG is a rapidly growing caucus that has National influence with the seats it has. DSA is moving left towards really being an independent force but it will take time. I wanna speed that up.

Ultimately I am here for progress. If it turns out CPUSA is the right ship brother I will pledge myself to that org so fast it will make your head spin. Same with PSL for that matter. But as it stands today I’m with DSA.

Enshittification comes for everything eventually. Such are the “innovations” of capitalism.

I’ve been in the DSA for a bit over a year and it’s been wonderful. We’ve made meaningful wins for people and are steadily growing. Our chapter is beginning caucus more which is exciting because it means more opportunities to engage with the national conversations and do necessary political education.

The core of my chapter is mostly ML’s though we have a right wing contingent that I am hoping we can persuade if we could get some of them to read a goddamn book. There are serious growing Marxist factions on the left of DSA that are gaining a lot of traction quickly and it’s an exciting time imo.

Anyway go to some of your local chapters meetings and see what they’re doing. An organizer will 100% reach out and talk to you if they are competent. It can be daunting to get started but it is extremely rewarding.

Don’t let them scare you into compliance. Fight for what you believe in.

Gross. I wonder how this compares to the spyware Microsoft is doing with Windows and if that’s part of why it’s Mac only.

Are Mac users harder to farm data with and this is a path to drain them of useful info?

Uh oh my precious AI bubble!

What a strange first example where ostensibly you are expressing support for the pro slavery dude who did the beating with the cane.

IMO the question is more around when it starts having demonstrable negative effects on your life. Missing obligations to family and friends. Work getting done poorly. Not taking care of your own health. Stuff like that.

100% keep it up comrade. If you hadn’t wrote something I probably would have for the same reason lol

God bless you taking the time to entertain the incoherence of this comment. I fear it is fruitless here but I commend the effort.

Imagine being the person in the government who’s job it is to watch some Netflix slop and then comment on it. As if this something we need the government to take an opinion on. Surely there’s anything else we could be spending our time and money on right?

What an unserious country the US is.

Who is looking for an argument? You asked for an explanation?

Liberals love to call people calmly explaining things with impassioned language as “being fired up” as if caring about things or speaking on them with a modicum of authority is bad.

Thanks for your meaningful contribution to this conversation lol

“Every government is just pulling on different levers and creating different flavors of the same problems”

This statement is so braindead because it ignores the INTENT behind why governments do things. It just boils all of them down to just being the same thing where all governments are trying to do the same things (which from the rest of your message must be conquest and domination if you think most countries would trade places with the US - I have to believe you are implying all the things that come along with “being America”) which is patently not true. Comparing the two largest super powers in the world right now demonstrates this clearly - the US and China have two wildly different governmental structures that are acting with wildly different intent both domestically and internationally. What are their goals? Why do they act the way they do? Why do they interact with other countries the way they do? Why do they have the problems they do? How do the policies exacerbate or relieve those issues?

Like do you think places with a lower standard of living just are like that because the people running the government just don’t give a shit for some reason? How do you think you have places where income is low but everything is affordable? Just dumb luck while governments be doing government things?

There are some constants in our world on the boundaries of class, but even then those do not manifest the same everywhere in the world because not every government treats the issue the same.

“Then you got all varieties of societal stuff” oh brother

Like I get it you didn’t drop your whole ideological world view in some Lemmy post you made taking a shit at work, but I just couldn’t help but eye roll so hard you resisted taking any kind of stance on anything. Shit just happens with no real rhyme or reason.

Ah the enlightened centrist take that succinctly avoids any kind of analysis of WHY things are the way they are. Things just are the way they are and that’s that I guess.

pushing internet lies as drama is funny or something I guess
