it’s like we have all watched these dystopian future movies and instead of heeding their warning, we all said “hold my beer”.

Ha! This is a glorious future we’re living in…

Oh, I’m totally kidding, it would be soul crushing (crusher?) to hear her voice coming from these nightmares.

This is not the AI I was expected after growing up with Star Trek. I’m trying to picture just what horrors the replicators would come up with if hooked to this abomination.

Then the other clowns go and steal scarjo’s voice instead of Majel Barrett. What a future we’re building here…

I have no opinion on the Star Wars/Dune debate but that is one fantastic comment. Kudos to the author, brought me quite a smile.

Just like their name, it’s just a slogan. They wrap themselves in flags and bibles and folks fall for it every time.

Agreed! The phone I’m typing this on right now is dressed in my finest yellow TPU.

I mean, the article goes into how their real estate was gutted, which could have provided a safety margin for them to restructure. But again, I care nothing for red lobster, but I see the same pattern as happened with so many others. Read into Sears or Toy-R-Us for example. It’s the pattern of these parasitic private equity firms. They look for these struggling businesses that have assets they can come in to exploit, hastening the demise.

In the end it’s not so much that I care about these businesses survival as I angers me to see a few corporate fucks stripping away the value that workers had built over the years and leaving destruction in the wake.

Yeah, but shitty chain restaurant that may have had a chance to improve had it not had its organs harvested while still alive. I honestly don’t give a shit about red lobster but I hate the corporate theft that we just let happen.

I’ve come to the same conclusion. I’ve been wrapped up in political bullshit for years but trying to pull myself out because in all that time, no matter who wins, shit gets worse. The system does what the system will do and right now it seems determined to self immolate.

I can’t tell you how many articles I’ve read lately that can just be summed up as “late-stage capitalism”. This is the death throes of the nation.
