And the world watches and does nothing about it.

True. Everything in the US is just so fucked, and it feels like a great big cycle of fuckery. And American narcissism is not helping.

The censorship going on in Reddit is HORRIFYING.

Americans are so goddamned spoiled. Their ancestors ate what was in season, and then more recently their great-grandparents just ate what was in their budget or produced in their backyard. No food item was ever and will ever be guaranteed on this earth.

If humans are having trouble due to a disease in our foodstuff, we just go without it for a while. It’s fine. Not a big deal. That’s human resilience.

But no. How dare Americans be inconvenienced. Pathetic.

Signed, an American

Yeah, our civilization deserves to fall.

I used the tool where I could import my Reddit subs to find similar communities here, and it surprised me how many communities I was a part of that the Reddit algorithm never let me see posts from. Also, it highlighted how much more infrastructure there is to build here. It’s exciting! Like the creative energy of expanding the Wild West but without the decimation of entire indigenous communities and the murder of innocent people and animal species.

I’ve basically abandoned Reddit as well. I’ve been on for so long, but this bullshit makes me feel unsafe. If the platform is going to so blatantly side with those who would happily let me die for a few dollars (health insurance companies), then I don’t need to give them my attention or data anymore.
