Memes

There can't be propaganda if everyone agrees with me! I think we're in good shape!

Extreme? Like Tony the Tiger who is the mascot of Kellogg's Frosted Flakes cereal. They're grrreat!

And fake internet points.

And I'm sure top men are working on monetization.

Here, take a fake Internet point.

that's amateupaganda

Posts like this are it, even. Hurrdurr we're so much better circlejerk is grossing me out.

In my experience people who talk about the good old days are white and male.

It was a time when they got their way 100% and everyone else could get fucked.

I've been around since the 70s and I mostly agree ... but on one point I disagree ... the ability of humanity to wipe itself out with a nuclear exchange. Back then, even 20, 30 years ago there were a lot level headed leaders who (although we may have disagreed with them) were less radical and would be less likely to consider launching a nuclear weapon for any reason. Back then, we also had a lot of actual war veterans in the public and in government who understood the nature of war ... now there are fewer of them around. Most people including those in government now don't know what war is any more, other than to see it glorified in history books, movies and pop culture.

So the combination scares me ... a society that is complacent to war yet has the weapons to cause world wide destruction if someone disagrees with them.

I feel as though there was a "good old days" of the internet. Don't get me wrong, it was a complete shit show, but it was anonymous, anyone could say anything that they wanted, and there would be few if any consequences. There were ads, but they were generally garbage animated GIFs at worst.

It wasn't perfect, but we were free to do what we wanted on the internet, with little to no bearing on our daily lives.

Now, it's almost expected that your online activity will be tied to you specifically. In most cases, your legal name is attached to it for everyone to see. If you try to go around without your legal name on everything, then generally you are either severely limited, or outright removed from the platform. Sigh

We need memes, Spiderman memes

270 karma in 4 months. Cute.

Yep they said it lmao

You could create a plug in that states your and everybody's total karma. Karma is one of the worst ideas on the internet. A tool to enforce conformity and obedience

00s internet before corporations colonized it was beautiful. I'm deeply sad that it's gone but thankful that I got to participate.
