For your experience to be a happy one, the experience is not primarily reliant on what is being experienced being something which brings happiness to you, it is the you, which is experiencing, that needs to be of happiness.
So, although the outer world affects the inner being and a better world will improve the inner experience for many and is therefore a just cause, the search for a life of personal happiness is primarily about the situation within you and not the situation around you. - PunkMonk

I love how the title and image both spelt it incorrectly in different ways. You can also put a hyphen in it if you’re feeling swanky. Anyway, fuck the west.


You make a very good point actually, I suppose I hadn’t even asked myself whether manipulation itself is inherently, objectively wrong. If I manipulate a rich bastard into sending food to Palestine, it wouldn’t exactly be bad would it.
There’s a lot of gross ads out there though, at the very least they need stricter regulation on what they can show and say unless it’s a product for the betterment of humanity, but I guess what is good and not would be hard to accurately categorise. Fuck ads that are for selling you things you really don’t need, especially when they use dishonest ways to, and even moreso when it’s fuelling an addiction like gambling.


Sharing this screenshot as I thought the search result was funny considering the source:



What a dogshit liberal take, it’s primarily about keeping America the top dog through imperialism. Not saying the Epstein controversy has nothing all to do with this but Trump would still be doing similar warmongering even if the files had not been so damning to him and his circle.
I’m a bit out of the loop too but I heard some superbowl advert made people finally think twice about installing a camera connected to the internet on their doorstep.


Such a beautiful reply, I wish I was as educated with my research & analysis as well as so articulate with my points as you are - instead of my typical half-assed rambling lol. Thank you and sorry for being overly pessimistic!


Ted Kazcynski had somewhat of a point - I say somewhat because he was a leftist hater and I think a bit off the rails. Technology is already way out of control, I don’t think most people understand that if there were to be a socialist revolution in a 1st world country any time soon, just how much of an advantage the state has over the people due to it’s surveillance network. Privacy for all intents and purposes is practically gone already if you’re of interest to the intelligence agencies and around anything with a connection and/or even just standing outside thanks to satellite imagery. And that is just the technology which we know of, it’s horrifying to think about the possibility of tech that remains classified.
