“Governments don't want a population capable of critical thinking, they want obedient workers, people just smart enough to run the machines and just dumb enough to passively accept their situation.”

It would be more efficient if we shrunk the power of the wealthiest individuals and made everyone fall under a wealthy limit
Why should one person own and control so much wealth when they will never realistically be able to enjoy all of that wealth during their lifetime? Especially if that one person hoarding all that wealth they'll never use is producing, creating and maintaining so much pollution for one individual.
Unless it's Sunday .... Bloody Sunday
Don't exist until they're gone ... I'm a middle child in a family of eight ... mom kept an eye on the baby and the oldest ... as long as there was six in the middle, no one really cared who they were until that number of middle children decreased.
Also ... the most valuable content I find or want online for my own uses is all text based ... reading blogs, forums, news sites, articles, creative writing, wikipedia
I really don't care about design or flashy lights and pictures ... I just want to read the news
I often just toggle the read only view as soon as I find something I want to read and seldom care about what a site looks like ... on the other side of that ... if the site is so messed up or controlling that it refuses reader view .. I skip it and move on
Don't change the logo ... just keep it as is ... I identify the app more for the app than for the site it was associated with .. I associate Sync with Sync ... I don't associate it with reddit, lemmy, kbin or anything ... I just associate it with Sync which makes the most sense to me
That logo only means Sync to me ... and as an app I think it should remain that way
They tried but couldn't affect the laws of universe to do anything catastrophic ... but they keep firing the thing without really knowing what will happen until it happens.
It's like a bunch of kids with access to firecrackers and thousands of pounds of TNT.
Maybe nothing will happen .... maybe something will.
Willy Wonka looking straight into your eyes: .... yes .... EVERYTHING
So it would be like taking out all the leaflets, ads, sales flyers and alert sheets from your local newspaper and throwing them in the trash without looking at any of them. In a small way, I always feel bad when I do that to my paper ... such a huge waste of paper that only a small fraction of people actually look at.
Does this mean that in ten years we're going to have a pandemic again?
What is going on here? .... is this a time warp? .. is this a new thing? ... is this an old thing? ... is this a thing? .. did I just find a time machine?
This is exactly how I think humanity will play out the climate crisis .... 'let's maintain the economy and wealth of a handful of people, let the majority die, let the population go down and everything will eventually equalize and normalize after millions die off'
So, if you aren't wealthy now ... you'll be dead soon
