me when the value produced by my labor goes to my lazy, parasitic boss:

not knowing who that is i thought the title meant you should hate-pirate software and i was like fuck yeah

now i'm disappointed

"if you're a leftist you're actually a trump supporter" -bernie sanders recently for some fucking reason

wish someone would deport his brain matter from his skull

guys america is perfect and FREE and EPIC and every bad thing that happens is because PUTLER and fELON made TACO president against the will of the american people -someone who has clearly never driven in the midwest before

i host one! it's a small invite-only (but cracked) survival server for friends and whatever but i'd be cool with inviting hexbears

anyone interested feel free to reply and i'll send a DM with the join info (might be slow to respond tho)

oh no i actually do that

it just sucks that i spent like half an hour writing a reply to something only to find out i don't get to send it

It's obviously better if the Puppy Kicker 9000 is in the hands of the workers than capitalists. That should be obvious.

then please enlighten me because i don't want to kick puppies and i don't want the forest-burning, information-poisoning, art-burying novelty meme generator. why is it better to do as they do but it's ✨open source✨ when we aren't even in a post-capitalist society and that work will just be exploited to the benefit of capitalists anyway? even if we're the ones developing it for free for everyone to use, isn't it still just a tool that only benefits the wealthy and hurts the working class regardless by poisoning our access to information, poisoning our ability to express ourselves creatively, enabling a new digital form of SA, etc. etc. etc.?

in a post-capitalist society where there's no incentive to use AI as a torment nexus, i'm sure it'll be a valuable tool where the pros outweigh the cons. but, we're not there, and AI right now is just making everything suck a lot more. or am i missing some sort of benefit it's providing to the working class that makes this all worth it anyway? not trying to be a smuglord, i'm genuinely wondering.

i don't think it's a good strategy to emulate every shitty thing capitalists cook up. if capitalists started a puppy kicking corporation should we start a puppy kicking collective so it isn't just the capitalists in charge of kicking puppies?
