C merger that sent the company’s stock cratering 93% and years of mounting losses

93%?! Fucking hell, that’s really bad.

It’s a conceptual mountain, duh.

I think it would be super easy for them to fudge the numbers on their side.

It took awhile to get rid of that for me too. I can spot the trolls pretty easily here though, there are about 10 accounts maybe? I sometimes fall for the trap, but it’s getting rarer and rarer. I have found their patterns, but sometimes it takes me a few comments to see that it’s bad faith.

I think Lemmy/Piefed is so much less addicting, that it doesn’t really matter as much. I guess because the anger is the part that’s addicting and I never realized I was in it until I got away. It’s really strange though, I just quit cold turkey. Which is great, but strange. I’m so glad I did.

Lol, I should have prefaced with Reddit survivor.

Make one clarifying point comment and then move on.

An example of how to do it:

You: EVs are better for the environment

Comment: Why are you saying that China should rule the world?

You: I’m saying that EV’s are better for the environment no matter who makes them. Last comment.

An example on how not to do it:

You: EVs are better for the environment

Comment: Why are you saying that China should rule the world?

You: I never said that you asshole. Why are you sticking up for China, you fucking tankie. You’re a troll piece of shit, etc., etc.,

Comment: You said China is amazing, you obviously want to go down on them

You: Why are you saying this shit? Etc., etc., etc. blah, blah, blah

I think that’s why it hasn’t happened yet. Just imagining people who blow stop signs, or driving drunk, or whatever other shitty driving thing there is to do while in the air, over people’s houses and schools. I think that’s why they were waiting for autodrive, but autodriving hasn’t proven to be all that great yet. It’s nightmare fuel.

What’s that on #5?

Some tips:

• We do have some trolls, we’re getting more popular. If you feel like someone is picking on you, those are them.
• Active is the default, but can seem less active because the active posts stay up longer. I made my default Hot, but then I check Active and Top 6 Hours.
• You’re probably going to go through a withdrawel. It varies by person, but mine took about a week or two.

Welcome.

If you don’t understand why, it’s always money and corruption for money that drives this administration:

Corporate owners of ICE detention centers report another revenue surge

“Last year was the most successful period of business wins in our company’s history and we expect 2026 to continue to be very active as well,” said George Zoley, chairman and CEO of the GEO Group, during a call with investors.

Ahhh, well that explains it. I should have known there was corruption involved.

I loved reddit for the first year or so, we had some quiet communities for reddit that were everyone just messing around. It was fun and then it really wasn’t.

Have you tried k dramas? There are a lot that fit that description, but some are on the fence.

It’s quality comments though. I just went to old.red to see if it worked for me. It did, but the comments were very shallow. I’m guessing bots? It’s hard to say. After being here for years, it was a shock.

Reddit:

Took me a couple of seconds, noice.

That’s why I post it every chance I get. I remembered the story go by and had to make my own gif of him doing it. It was really hard to find a video mentioning it too. Seriously, share this far and wide. Trump did the damage to the pool.
