We, The People, give these corporations power over us since we foolishly voted in self-serving politicians that allowed Citizens United to enter the political arena and since then no politician has lifted a finger to repeal it.

We live in a dystopia.

I applaud her for fighting against the ocean tide. Our clothes are made from slave/child labor as well as most of our electronics. Expecting fellow Microsoft employees who are very comfortable in their position to give that up because of AI killing people?

I absolutely hate how apathetic the world is. It should never be "that's the way it is" because we, humans, let it get this far. Are corporations to be blamed, consumers, or both?

Who's turn is it to pass the hot potato?

Correction: US Republicans and Trump hate the USA. Do not pin it on one person as it takes a village. Fox News hates America, Joe Rogan rather be Russian than an American.

Don't let these fascists off the hook so easily.

Oh for sure I stopped caring. I wear my crocs with an unique pattern nearly everywhere I go as an example. Just airing grievances and observations

Try being a single dad on the dating scene. It's like a yellow star on my shoulder everywhere my profile goes. For fucks sake, even had single mom's tell me they don't date single dads. Legit had a woman tell me I'm cute, but having a kid is a dealbreaker due to her not wanting "baggage." Says the person resorting to online dating.

Thankfully, I found someone and been out of the game for the past 5ish years or so. I can only imagine how much more superficial it all is now.

It's like us men are immune to trauma and if we bring up any valid concerns or criticism, it's either we're incels or homosexual.

Our society and the double standards we place on ourselves as men or women is absolutely ridiculous.

It's incel to think you believe you're the shit and why isn't any woman coming to you. That's incel thought.

Dealing with depression, lack of job opportunities, isolation among men as society pushes us to keep our emotions on the backburner, etc. aren't incels, it's whats happening with men right now. Men have little to no support group compared to women and for that, I am envious.

As a dad:

I get weird looks when I'm with my child, am told "doing daddy duty huh" when I'm more involved than his mother, am expected to be stoic, can't sit at the bench to waych my child play as some other individual will think I'm a creep as I'm a single dad, can't wear dope/unique patterns due to others perception of it being "flamboyant" while women will compliment other women for what they got on.

Toxic masculinity is intertwined with incels and it's absolutely rampant in society.

I was banned for saying fascists need to be hung, appeal rejected. While you got that r/conservative sub and others like it being well, fascist and calling for Liberals demise.

Seems to me Reddit is a OK with hate speech as long as you hate the right kind.

I can see simply voicing dissent can result in a ban on Reddit. Has happened easily to me and likely others. Fuck Reddit.

Unfortunately US Republicans are Nazi's. Another sad thing is our society is too stupid to see the similarities as well as afraid calling a spade a spade.

US Republicans are Nazi's.

As a veteran I disagree with the war criminal comment just as I disagree with you saying you should serve before judging.

People who join are split into thirds; a third are actually drunk off the Kool aid who believe the USA is God's endowment, a third are there because lack of economical opportunities back home, and the last third are trying to get out of their shit situation, whether it be near homelessness or abuse.

It's by design from the government to make us citizens desperate enough to sign our lives away for a chance to have our heads above water.

Government is more interested in using your body as a meat shield than educating you.
