I’ll say that you’re right that many people are tuning into mindless entertainment.
And you’re right, you could make specific comparisons.
Op said we are living it which is not even close.
I admit that the internet is a place that lacks nuance, pleasantry, and understanding but your hostility and assumptions are uncalled for.
Honestly? Too many people just oversimplify it by saying things like “idiocracy is happening” which the op did. So, sure, I was making the point that it’s not even close.
If you’d like, you could explain to me how you think our current situation compares to Idiocracy.
Back in the day, I got a kitten and our Boxer thought it was his.
Til his dying day, he was used as a pillow by that sweet little demon.
His last Congress didn’t do anything useful, I’m doubtful the American people would realize a difference.
The filthy blues just have to call their shit, “the help working people bill” or “stop poisoning our water,” etc and JD will be hamstrung in 2028.
Sam Altman would mug you, though.
Stupid, sexy math.
We’re not heading towards doom because pretty but dumb people outbred smart, rational people.

I think that would be more of a “could” situation.
I’m certain a lot of bars would close anyway bc their staff want to go home and a lot of their patrons don’t need the extra drinks.
None of my 2am bars served past 130 and they tried like hell to have people out at 145.
I’ve played some rps3 roms on my steam deck that make this look glorious in comparison.
I’m looking forward to this.
Weird. I thought Rape apologia was the GOP’s bread and butter.
My wife thinks my algorithm is fucked up. Nope, that’s just lemmy.
One of the issues will be server space, I imagine. Where these agents are at right meow means a whole bunch of people can dump slop games at a rate we’ve never imagined.
I think they’ll have to find a way to weed out a lot and stay ahead of this.
A simple tag for users is nice bc some don’t want any part of it but it would also be a nice heads up for everyone.
Come again?
Probably de-motivational posters? Those are the oldest big thing I can think of.

This is semi adjacent bc I was feeling nostalgic earlier and I watched about an hour worth of vines while making dinner.
I’m surprised that this uggo isn’t used to catching strays.
