So when crop yeilds fall through the floor and oil prices are still inflated.. Brexit will end up being an actual, real-life, bonafide death-sentence. Please tell me why, if you feel this statement is untrue.

When will news channels figure out they can probably quite successfully start their own separate religions? They're already creating and maintaining such intricate, fabricated, belief systems, aren't they? IDK, definitely a 'Monday thought'

Eternal grift Endless paid promotion Complete fucking emptiness in every algorithmic suggestion No wonder things are so shit Culture is dying because people ceased to seek it The few that do cannot afford it The erasure of a cohesive society by tech firms was slow at first, then all at once

We shouldn’t have to vote tactically. We shouldn’t have to painstakingly analyse small sample polls with huge error margins to figure out how to stop our least preferred candidate winning. We shouldn’t have to be bombarded with conflicting party propaganda about who is in front really. It’s madness.

A better version of this dream is Martin Lewis, already on set, disguised in an elaborate 'hippy eternal student' costume. KB tries to attack his ideology before he reveals himself, in his usual sharp attire, producing a huge digital chart and graphic presentation from within an old tobacco tin 🤌

Quite the scenes on Good Morning Britain as Ed Balls tells Kemi Badenoch her student loan interest plan will only help the richest ex-students. After she insists he's wrong, GMB bring on Martin Lewis to back up Balls' argument and tell her the plan makes no sense.

Heads-up to all my social justice warriors out here fighting the system and ignoring decentralised projects built on crypto.. Crypto does not pick sides. Crypto powers some of the most socialist, permission-less, projects on the planet. It's not the 'one big Ponzi scheme' you've been told to think👀

Divisive politics are amplified on purpose. The Politics of 2015 is dead. The 'Politics' that we see now is a reality show where precisely NOTHING is of any consequence to 99.99% of the population. Consent, opinion, poll victories, and even facts are decided by tech oligarchs and algorithms.

DYK the internet, as we know it today, is at risk of being lost. What will if the only web search results are curated AI summaries and recommendations? Where will you go for first-hand info when Amazon has shut down half the internet and all social media is curated to manipulate you in realtime?

Social graphs Political views Location habits Search terms Email inboxes Spending habits all mined for data in explicit depth, now analysed & summarised by AI, being sold to everyone.. The desperation in the tech sector is growing rapidly, there is nothing left on the table.

What solutions are you pursuing to ensure your online data is secured, preserved, unrestricted and fully available to you? Are you trusting tech companies to think about that for you? They really do like to do our thinking for us, it's so convenient tbh
