Meta is a complete dumpster fire

Nothing profound here, just need to vent: I haven’t used Facebook for several years now, but I just got my 10 year old son a Meta Quest 2 and had to activate it by linking to my Facebook account. Just two days later I got a warning that the account will be locked because they detected that a child was using the Quest with an...

rah,

just got my 10 year old son a Meta Quest 2

How is this company still in business

Uhh…

rah,
rah,

Once they get into power keep applying the pressure.

Yeah good luck with that.

The only other option is armed revolution

That’s not the only other option.

rah,

What are the other options?

Options one has to discover for oneself. Keep asking that question, one day the answer may become clear.

rah,

I’d very much like to hear what you think the other valid options the UK general public has to make an impact at this election.

I didn’t mention making an impact.

rah,

Why not save animals from unsafe/illegal conditions and provide enrichment, without turning the animals into an attraction?

rah,

Zoos act as promotional centers for conservation.

But they aren’t necessary for conservation. Conservation can occur without zoos.

rah,

So you acknowledge that zoos are not necessary for conservation?

rah,

No.

rah,

I won’t be voting.

rah,

Eh?

rah, (edited )

Either vote or shut up.

LOL no.

if you don’t engage in the political system you have no right to complain about it

Why not? I don’t follow.

rah,

Not voting, if you’re otherwise able, is a tacit acceptance for how things are.

I disagree.

vote for someone who’ll replace them, whether you like that option or not.

No.

vote third party next time if they don’t change things to your liking.

No.

Don’t like the political parties? Start one.

LOL no.

Start organising.

No.

But if that’s too much for you, vote.

No.

rah,

Because you have the chance to change things for the better

How?

and if you don’t take that chance but still keep complaining about things then all you are doing is pretending you care

Complaining doesn’t imply caring. If my neighbours keep me up until 2am having parties on school nights and I complain about that, the complaining doesn’t mean I care about anything beyond my own wellbeing.

rah,

Because you’re the sort of person that says “ooh both sides are the same”

You have no idea what kind of person I am. You’re jumping to conclusions.

At least everyone else is trying to improve their lot rather than just moaning about it. Which is you’ve elected to do.

Not voting doesn’t imply not improving one’s lot. I have not elected to not improve my lot.

you are a stubborn jackass

I’m not going to reduce myself to your level by telling you what I think you are.

rah, (edited )

Why would I?

rah,

it’s a part of your duty to vote

ROFL “duty”?!

I’m absolutely astonished that you would come out with such a ridiculous, anachronistic idea. Tell me, what precisely happened in your life that gave you the idea that I owe anyone any kind of duty simply because I was born? Did you watch a Disney movie?

Clearly in your mind there is a logical chain from some starting point to the end point of voting being a duty. I challenge you to write this down in words. To express your idea lucidly and rationally. Convince me. I dare you to try. Do you have it in you? Or can you only embarrass yourself further?

rah,

You might prefer one of the available options.

What options are you talking about?

I asked you why I would vote. The options I see are to vote or not vote.

rah,

You don’t have it in you to express your view then, I see.

rah,

LOL

rah,

Christ the British electorate is ignorant beyond belief.
