Even the Zuckerbot trends towards nazism

If I’d had to bet whether this was The Onion before clicking this link, someone would be breaking my knees next week.

This timeline is absurd.

People really do end up with the face they deserve.

[–] [email protected] 9 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

No, his is far too unbruised, his nose isn't broken, and he appears to have all of his teeth.

[–] [email protected] 1 points 31 minutes ago

To the pain!

Oh the irony

I had an uncle that had a problem with leaking. Ended up just having to wear a diaper everywhere.

[–] [email protected] 4 points 1 hour ago

Your uncle is Donald Trump?

If he had the right plumbing then a zip tie would have also worked.

Everything this dipshit says should be on Facebook

After all, he said age of privacy is over (or something similar).

“There are a bunch of things that I think are value-destroying for me to talk about, so I’m not going to talk about those…”

Well have you thought about not being a piece of shit 😂

[–] [email protected] 36 points 7 hours ago

Like, isn't that an admission that your business has no value?

[–] [email protected] 27 points 6 hours ago

Now that's an amazing headline.

[–] [email protected] 74 points 8 hours ago (2 children)

Imagine being worth 229 billion, and you look like that.

This realities Bond villains are so pathetic looking.

He's no Hank Scorpio, I'll tell you that.

Drugs and lack of sleep does that to you.

[–] [email protected] 16 points 7 hours ago (1 children)

Drugs and sleep have no effect on cyborgs

[–] [email protected] 1 points 37 minutes ago

I cyborg wouldnt be so pathetic, he is definitely a homunculus a la Full Metal Alchemist.

"I don't like it when people find out what I really think"

[–] [email protected] 105 points 11 hours ago (3 children)

Seriously. If everything I said leaked to billions of people, I'd be a comedic phenomenon, a trendsetter, and a terrorist.

That's what it feels like when you steal other people's personal information ..

[–] [email protected] 1 points 3 hours ago (1 children)

To be fair, if it's personal and you don't want it out there, don't put it on anything on the internet.

[–] [email protected] 17 points 3 hours ago

Meta goes far beyond simply scraping data you consciously send to them.

[–] [email protected] 15 points 7 hours ago

If only that feeling could be cranked up for him x 3 billion.

Is that dude turning orange?

[–] [email protected] 21 points 7 hours ago

Symptom of fascism

[–] [email protected] 133 points 10 hours ago (2 children)

No he had his face stuck to Trump ass and some it transferred to Zuck.

[–] [email protected] 8 points 7 hours ago

I'm a pacifist hippy tech worker, and I would gladly draw a paycheck from Raytheon long before I even consider applying to Facebook or Twitter.

Raytheon is putting "more value into the world" than these shitheads.

"Would you like your evil done in the traditional overt bombs-dropped-on-children fashion, or the new we'll-sell-your-entire-life-to-the-highest-bidder-while-feeding-you-non-stop-lies-to-establish-a-fascist-regime style, sir?"

This guy: Bomb some kids, at least it's a spectacle.

(Edit for clarification: I think both are bad, and one has a strong causal relationship with the other but I am not sure I would pick Raytheon personally. It's a bit too overtly evil for my tastes)

At least they are environmentally conscious, unlike Facebook

[–] [email protected] 3 points 1 hour ago (1 children)

I refuse to believe that tweet is real on principal, but it's just tone deaf enough to have me question whether this might have actually been shat out by a corporate marketing team as part of some greenwashing effort.

If this is someone memeing however: Kudos, this one is very convincing despite being wildly ridiculous.

[–] [email protected] 2 points 1 hour ago

It is satire, but they have a tweet on a environmentally friendly radar searchable on Google and a https://rtx.com/our-responsibility/sustainable-operations page so even if fake, it's not that far-fetched

[–] [email protected] 78 points 10 hours ago (1 children)

One way to avoid recurrent leaks is to foster a culture of trust and not be a ginormous dickwad.

zuck the fuck is worth approx 229billion.

a 25mil fine is 0.01% of his net worth.

If your average yearly salary is 30,000, thats like paying a fine of 3 ~~00~~.

edit math hard thank you @[email protected]

ZuckFuck doesn't make his net worth each year. So let's compare it against US citizen net worth. I have stats from 2022

Average American new worth is ~$1,050,000 Median American net worth is ~$192,000

I hate zuck as much as you but it's important to be accurate and fair as possible when comparing statistics.

So it's like a fine of $19 if using median and $105 if using average. Still peanuts for a fine
