It’s like the gilded age except instead of gold we get plastic.
As a nerd, I don’t like the end of the article where she says we need to get revenge on the nerds. I don’t consider any tech bro to be a nerd, and I’ve worked with a lot of them.
we get plastic
…in our waterways and oceans and everywhere else as microbeads
“It’s time for us to start getting revenge on the nerds.” Says PS1 Hagrid.
I’m gonna go out on a limb and say knowingly burning down the world’s future so you get to party now was and always has been the position of someone who is a fucking loser. This goes as much for current tech barons as it did for Exxon when they discovered climate change was real and covered it up because their profits mattered more than, you know, not burning the planet to a fucking cinder.
So, in other words, no you shouldn’t be shocked they’re such fucking losers because if they weren’t, they wouldn’t be angling to burn the world down so they can party. Only a true fucking loser could and would pursue that to begin with.
It’s like when former IMF chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn was caught paying boatloads of prostitutes to fuck him in an orgy, and his defense was “I was just sure all these beautiful young women wanted to have an orgy with me because I’m just so amazing and beautiful, and it never had anything to do with the vastness of my wealth and the fact that they were being highly paid to even look at my filthy ugly old body.”
You’ve gotta be some kind of fucking loser to think anyone would believe that when you’re a fucking Methuselah-lookin-ass ugly goblin like Dominique Strauss-Kahn.
They were, and always have been, losers.
I knew this would find its way here. I’ve been trying to put into words how I feel about these guys lately and the author did quite a fantastic job!
“A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit in”
— someone called Greek Proverb.
It’s the exact opposite of these fuckers.

Ffs Guardian. It’s cringeworthy, or at a push cringey, or embarrassing, or awkward.
I fucking hate “cringe” used as an adjective (or whatever it is).

What a great way to articulate what’s happening. The chuds are in control.
How and when did he turned from looking like an ugly Roman emperor to a fat nerd with ugly glasses? I missed that part of the show.
