A foam is just another texture of a sauce as a garnish, and typically not the main sauce. It's not as "why was that even food" as people put on. It's just an easy scapegoat for something different.

Cotton candy is air fluff that melts instantly on your tongue and leaves a bubblegum or artificial cherry taste behind. A foam is a similar thing, just with basil or truffle to compliment a piece of lamb sauced with its jus.

It's just lazy commentary.

A meaningful number of people globally want "revenge" on COVID. They are impotently raging along with the nearest angry person they can attach to. They don't understand their feelings but they feel generally cheated. Many real issues layered on to, but that's the motivating foundation.

They also are failed adults that just want a "daddy" to feel like he will make things better or "beat up" problems on their behalf (or more likely just make them feel like that's happening, regardless of reality).

Looks like that Kathleen person is making that claim, I'd reach out to them if you'd like expansion. I'm not on Twitter so can't engage further. If anything, I imagine "starship" would be a common spell check correction of "starlink" as it's a made up marketing word. To that, seems she'd be referring to the recently discussed rumors about musk starlink satellites somehow being involved in the collection/transmission of vote counts in some areas (I haven't looked into or seen any direct evidence of that specifically), alongside things like Joe rogan just saying that musk "had an app" and he "knew the election result 4 hours before it was called".

I'm more interested in hearing more about the "under ballot" concerns and the person outlining the simple way to get clarity here with strategic confirmation of votes in a couple counties with especially prevalent shifts as illustrative of larger potential issues.

"When someone shows you who they are, believe them..."

They've told you with the "eating the dogs" comments and hundreds of other examples... They aren't afraid to confidently lie to win...

They've told you they believe they are in a way that they would die and kill to win...

Remember, years of false, unsubstantiated outrage is meant to dilute challenge to actual crimes and horror. Some things to think about...

And here's more about voting systems experts that tried to warn early about potential issues like this

We can have measured confirmation, without conspiracy. We will review this election and make evidence-based arguments.

The richest man in the world owns thousands of SW engineers that remain in his companies (after all with any morality have been purged through years of labor abuse). He joked with carlson about how he was completely fucked if trump didn't win. What do you think the richest man in the world is capable of in that moment?

I see your angle, but it's not good. This is just the heritage foundation and power hungry around him telling him he needs to go through the process to lay a "defensible" legal path. He says they need to do it, instead of him unilaterally just doing it by decree. So they do it, and if/when challenged up to the Supreme Court, they just say all the boxes were checked, technically legal, moving on.

He'll do that dance, initially at least, for them to support the "is he being presidential today?!!!" BS narrative that they couldn't stop drooling over last time. He'll eventually collapse and regress, but this time when mask comes off all the way (or more like skin peels off of his face, as the mask has been off) he has absolutely nothing left to lose. Things are going to get dark.

What the fuck is this headline, that's Candyman, above all else.

These professional perpetual victims get a whiff of any actual perceived slight against them and they just cum in their little pants don't they?

In reality, if anything, someone probably said "We know the trump supporters have been threatening FEMA workers, if you don't feel safe about the houses with trump signs, you don't need to put yourself in what you feel is a dangerous position. You can skip those homes and we'll help those people when/if they file with the office"

"Some of these include free fruit and beverages, fitness coaches in the gym, a sabbatical after four years with the company, and the grounding of the Intel Air Shuttle that flies between California, Arizona, and Oregon."

I think, if anything, one of those things was main driver of the cost here... You make this fucking list with a straight face? But you go get rid of the tea bags to discipline labor, you fucking cowards.

I don't care if Monday's filing cases without evidence to clog the courts

Tuesday's prematurely declaring victory and Wednesday accusing fraud because vote count went overnight due to unsupported and disproven gop challenges of voting machines

Thursday, trucks with ski masked neo-nazis pulling up to the Capitol with assault rifles

It's Friday, I'm in a camp for suspected Marxist socialist antifahs!

Monday, barricades at politician's homes can fall apart

Tuesday, Wednesday, break my elderly neighbor's hip when cops break the door down at the wrong home and tackle her for being a suspected "illegal"

Oh, Thursday doesn't even start because musk/trump dept of efficiency has outlawed clocks and calendars so there can be no more legal labor challenges of unpaid overtime, no weekends and no holiday pay

It's Friday, I'm in only the second week of trump's second, never-ending term as America's dictator clumsily toppling 250+ years of democracy


You know you can do the right thing here. Go register, go vote. (Start here) - It's fast, simple and painless. You know we have to tell ourselves the above could never happen here to feel safe, but you also know it's closer to reality then ever before and you can do something, right now.

You willingly give them key points of information about yourself, directly or indirectly. They then read those signals and use your own information against you to convince you they have answers. And they are often wrong, but you walk around repeating their "insights" as if they are true.

I heard a person call into a show the other day, voice only, and talk about some poor working conditions at a factory. Made me think about how it would probably be so easy for nefarious bosses to be able to identify that person through voice recognition SW with all of the data that comes from us looking directly into cameras and speaking clearly in modern workplace meetings.

Do "anonymous" callers need to start using voice modulation software for these kinds of calls in the modern world?

As a little background, I didn't actively use Reddit for months following the blackout. I still barely stop in over there and if I do I'm never logged in our contributing to the communities there (where I was previously a daily poster/commenter).

Just bringing up a point that I'm not sure I'd seen anyone discussing directly over here; the general sentiment and quality of posted information on Reddit has become tangibly worse in multiple ways (I think coinciding with this group, us, leaving).

Now don't get me wrong, Reddit sucked in many ways and for long before the migrations to Lemmy, but there is a noticeable difference in a few key areas:

  1. Less skepticism in replies

  2. Less sourcing of information in posts and replies

  3. Less counter positions expressed generally

  4. If there is a decent reply, you have to scroll much further down to find it

  5. Less plain labeling of obvious bullshit

Many of us used to introduce counter viewpoints or clarifying information into posts, with sources. That functionally worked as a roadblock to stall the quickly building momentum of disinformation/misinformation. Those roadblocks often feel absent over there now, IMO.

Not saying we hold a responsibility to go back there or that we were saving lives before, but the difference is very apparent to me - Have you seen it? Any examples?

Through the great depression...

When 9/11 happened...

The 2008 housing crash...

COVID...

On a smaller scale, when the Titanic sank, I'm assuming someone inevitably got rich from the aftermath somehow?

Who are the people/groups that make up history's must successful parasites? Who "came out on top" in each instance of historical human suffering?
