It’s internet real…
Somebody really posted that on LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/posts/shitizdogra_firing-layoffs-job-activity-7271758403717214211-l-FG/
And if you search on LinkedIn for “Ashu Arora Jha” there is an account that looks real.
Whether or not it actually real and not just internet real is anybody’s guess. But it’s not something OP made up anyway.
Been using hotmail a lot lately to figure out why some emails my company is sending out on behalf of one of our customers aren’t being delivered to hotmail.com (and outlook.com, live.com, msn.com, etc) accounts. The customer we’re sending email for is Microsoft.
Hey they got good spam detection at least.
It’s a firehouse of falsehood kind of thing. Fragment people’s concept of reality to the point where people can’t even have a conversation.
The “question your beliefs” crowd is just people trying to create an alternate (and false) narrative so they can control you.
And that’s all hexbear ever does. People not as naive as you are about these things find them to be a waste of time and they do nothing other than interrupt actual conversations based in reality. Which isn’t healthy for a discussion forum.
This week on the Effectiveness of Foreign Influence Campaigns on Impressionable Youths: Young people refuse to even consider that TikTok might be bad.
Couldn’t agree more. Socialists with their hammers and sickles and Che Guevara t-shirts are accomplishing nothing. People need to let go of their fantasy of having people they disagree with them someday saying “I was completely wrong about socialism, you were right, I will never doubt you again!”
Though at this point Americans don’t even like the term “New Deal” because they’ve been told the economic policies of FDR (which pulled the country out of the Great Depression) were bad. So “Great America Deal” may not work. Biden tried “Build Back Better” but that was too lame. But yeah, gotta find a phrase people like and put it on a hat.
We’re already paying for their private jets and super yachts. At least making them paying for a security team means some more jobs for regular people. And they will need to pay their Praetorians well if they don’t want those guys to turn on them.
If capitalism were working correctly, this would be a great business opportunity for smaller companies which wouldn’t have CEOs with expensive private jets and praetorians. But capitalism isn’t working so well at the moment.
Yeah the shooter had something more like a rain jacket. But he may have put on the rain jacket that he wasn’t wearing earlier when going out to shoot the guy. Backpack is different, but that may have been stashed in the park.
But what seems odd to me is that this whole thing was obviously premeditated, but a guy that’s intent on murder is smiling and chatting up the receptionist? I guess that’s possible, but something that further suggests that it’s a different dude.
We really only have the top half of the faces looking somewhat similar in a couple of grainy images. It’s plausible it’s the same guy, but given the information we have, it’s more likely not. But we don’t have all the information, so who knows?
lemmyshitpost demands better quality shit!
Personally I think this is too high quality to be posted here. Seems more of a mildlyinteresting kind of thing to me.
Yeah but the others are US companies. They can be regulated. Which they don’t want and they will at least make an effort to get rid of at least the obvious disinformation.
With TikTok, there is no middle ground. Can’t keep them in line with the threat of regulation as they’re a foreign company. Operating in the country that has superseded Russia as the biggest source of disinformation. The only leverage they have is the threat to ban it outright.
Besides, Zuckerberg and Musk live in the US. They don’t want things to get too bad. Though they’re so disconnected from reality they may inadvertently make things bad. But they at least have an incentive to not have the US go to shit.
With TikTok, US cities could burn to the ground and they’ll still be fine. And we see TikTok making people particularly unhinged already.
