Schrödinger's PratIt's always "you need to build up a tolerance to crop failures" and never "billionaires should build up a tolerance to not having yachts".
artisanroxseriously
ffffn wow.
The privileged need to build up a tolerance against guillotines.
DianeLipartitoDo you know that I got permanently suspended from Twitter for joking about pretty much exactly that when corporate CEO's were holding back the American Rescue plan in order to make sure there was a non liability clause in the bill even if they forced ppl back to work in unsafe conditions and they got Covid? Every appeal, pre and post Musk, has returned to me with a resounding, "No." I was supposed to be "read mode" only, but with the rate limits I can barely do that.
yeah, i believe it.
even before Elno I had an account yeeted because I wrote that the Pope should "slap ped0 priests silly", and it was considered "a call for violence" 🙄
Jack is just Elno-lite.Twitter was always meant to be a disinformation platform to boost nazi-adjacent totalitarians, just like Facebook.
(also RIP my notifications for this reply but head cheese makes for good salads too 
)
@artisanrox @Rhodium103
OMG, that is even more ridiculous. We can't even slap pedophiles?! (LOL, "Elno," I like that.) I kind of thought that Twitter was a CIA (or intel) cut out, but unfortunately, there are still ppl on there (scientists, mostly) that I like to read and I do use FB to keep in touch with friends. (Oh, just got a notification that Twitter reinstated Kanye West. Well, there you go...)
Nice to meet you and have free expression here.

@mattyroses @Rhodium103 yeah the French had the right idea when they had their little French Revolution... I think we need to bring that back in some form ;)
@Natsura @mattyroses @Rhodium103
And, thus, a similar comment like yours is what resulted in my permanent suspension from Twitter and loss of all 5 or so appeals (with no commentary other than the original, 'promoting violence"). Funny, huh?
@DianeLipartito yeah it is funny... Twitter or rather Shitter is the worst
It is so blatant that they work and exist for the establishment.
@DianeLipartito yep~! I am so glad you have found this place~! The Fediverse is a way better place than any of those corporate owned social medias~! *hugs*
Thank you! Feels nice to find a home.
@DianeLipartito you are welcome, Diane~! *hugs more*
@DianeLipartito @Natsura @mattyroses
It's very striking how if someone threatens you with a knife, you can hurt them back or even kill them in self defence -- but if someone comes at you and threatens your life with policy, you have to suck it up and even protesting it is considered rude.
@Rhodium103 @DianeLipartito @mattyroses Exactly~! Defending your own life by threatening the rich/elite should be considered self-defense
@Natsura @Rhodium103 @mattyroses
That had been my point exactly when I made my comment on the Twit. They were putting a non liability clause for corporations in the rescue plan, so that ppl would, potentially, be forced back to work in unsafe Covid conditions. I was pointing out the hypocrisy. And also, if allowing so many ppl to die of a disease was ok, then maybe they should reconsider history. More of a metaphor since Americans tend put up with this crap more than anyone should.
@DianeLipartito @Natsura @Rhodium103 yeah, my original account was banned for the same - yet direct threats from the right were fine. Under Jack, not even Elmo.
@mattyroses @Natsura @Rhodium103
For me it was both. First Jack, 2020, then Elno when I tried to appeal under "new criteria" (which turns out to be worse than before). I tried to explain it was a joke and I didn't expect ppl would begin running around with guillotines. The establishment is humorless (but also scared, so that's kind of nice). Yes, apparently direct threats to regular individuals that they don't care about are ok. Saw someone reinstated after one of those.
Nice to meet you!

luneellise21 (xe/xer)@Rhodium103 this is disgusting, but unfortunately not new. Imagine my people being told we can be more resilient when our children drown constantly with fatal floods... We have a common enemy, now.
climate voter/degrowthist@Rhodium103 It's not about fixing the problem but adaptation. Just adapt to your miserable planet.
Harri O'Rein@Rhodium103 We need to diminish our tolerance to billionaires.
mark@Rhodium103 I'm also constantly annoyed at long term solutions such as light colored shingles and better insulation. Like, wtf! The fixes are to stop spewing shit into the environment. Now
Ariaflame@ATLeagle @Rhodium103 Why not both? And those are things that help *now*. Energy not used is energy not being generated by fossil fuels. The less energy being used, the more we can fulfil all our energy needs with renewables. I take it therefore you don't have a heater or an air conditioning unit?
@ariaflame @Rhodium103 my problem isn't why not both, my point is that we are only doing one, and its the dumbest one.
I'm lucky enough to have been able to do many energy saving upgrades to my house. The people that don't have control of those choices, or money to do it are impacted.
That was a very twitterific response. Congrats on bringing the "why do you hate waffles" conversation back into my life
@ATLeagle I know people are limited. So they do what they can. Perfect is the enemy of good enough. And sorry, I encountered some other people that threw me back a bit into that mode. I really don't know who you mean by 'we' there.
A.Stringer@ATLeagle @Rhodium103 with absolutely no consideration for the other non human occupants of this planet who require it to survive (producing fake trees springs to mind- good luck nesting in that if you're a bird)
@Annekin @Rhodium103 or humans who live outside or mostly outside. Or humans who don't control any of these things.
John Shirley@Rhodium103 also this technique is basically bullshit above certain sustained hot temperatures.

@Rhodium103 Great. Much like being poor, being subject to extreme heat is now a personal failing.

Brian Dear@Rhodium103 Billionaire yachts may not be that great but even if they were all right this moment shot out into space all the way to the surface of the sun, their absense would do nothing to mitigate the planetary emergency.
