#lofty — Public Fediverse posts

🎭 Behold, an exposé on the art of "lofty rhetoric" 🤡—because nothing says "internal dissent" like crafting marketing slogans for the #tech overlords. 📢 Bravo, #New #Yorker, for another illuminating piece on the complexities of Googler life, complete with the rebel tale of a #corporate #bard. 👏

So much for #lofty claims at #rambling #Trump press conference:
"#DelcyRodríguez, a loyalist, has appeared on television and radio contradicting Donald Trump’s description of her now being president and cooperating with the US."

OK, another update. Day 9 of #lofty? holy shit, it's such a honeypot for scammers, it's not funny.

Here is what I have seen so far:

- DAOs voting for completely nonsense agreements because people can't be bothered to read what they are voting for, they just vote for what sounds nice
- airbnb property get raided by the feds to apprehend a fugitive that was staying there. stand off, swat, $65k damage to the property and all bookings cancelled
- completely run down properties ... /n

@abuseofnotation Big companies and institutions are already in par with countries, negotiating on a level above single individuals and small institutions.

In this #lofty level, tens of thousands of lives, together, are just pocket change.
