Soylent, just so we're all on the same page, is a food slurry with vitamins randomly thrown in that was invented by a maladjusted techie because he hated having to take time off from work to eat.

Said techie also found things like salad revolting since it was just like eating leaves. He also worked with tech startup that went under and saw his cum shakes as a way to keep the dream alive.

It's amazing how many people think "I don't get my way all the time" means "democracy doesn't work" or "my voice isn't being heard!" It's especially amazing to see a rich person whine about not being heard by the American government. That's just loving incredible.

Well she is twittering those abhorrent opinions on company time so that would be a nice cause for termination. Alternatively tech workers aren't unionized so Google could just fire her due to at will employment laws.

It is nice to have someone you can point to and say "well our new policy/product might be morally bankrupt but at least we aren't suggesting enslaving 1/3 of the population like she suggests". It loses a bit of its power when you employ that person though.

Doctor Spaceman posted:It's worth having a look at that essay, since the website is loving unreadable by design. This essay says a lot about her personality... Justine Tunney posted:As engineers, we’ve done little other than feed this monster with the social media and communications technologies we create. Plug that feedback loop into Metcalfe’s Law and you end up with a combinatorial explosion of obnoxious ideas, incessant whining, and the bitter politicisation of all parts of life that permeates every crevice of our culture. : Look at me how intelligent I am, using all these difficult words and phrases! I'm not sure if mashing them together will show my brilliance, so I'm going to hyperlink every single one of them to prove I did my research. There, now I disguised my trite rant against the plebes as something insightful. Justine Tunney posted:Come on guys; we’re better than this. There is absolutely no reason why we should have a comparatively poor standard of living when we’re the most productive members of society. In many ways it’s our own fault, since we’ve shown remarkably little initiative in utilising the tremendous power that we wield. Most of us don’t care about power. We want to just sit around writing code all day. We don’t care so much about all the games people play, vying for social rank. We’re eager to ignore all the disrespectful aggressions we experience from other members of society. : We, the geeks, me included, because I am a geek, don't care about politics and rank. This is why, instead of writing some code for my lord and master Eric Schmidt, I decided to poo poo a huge essay about my dream society. No one gives me respect I deserve, so why won't we change our society so I could take my rightful place among the aristocracy? Justine Tunney posted:Normal people love being aggressive and cruel. They love it so much, that they commit microaggressions against others constantly in their everyday social interactions. They do this just to probe others and see if they can get away with even more cruelty. I’m honestly not even sure if half of them are consciously aware of their enactment of this peculiar behavior. It’s as if their brains are hardwired with an algorithm to maximise being a sadistic rotten louse while minimising potential consequences. And what’s worse, is that they lie. They’ll do all those things and then sanctimoniously assert their moral supremacy, just so they can gain more power over you and act crueler yet. : You may think I am a horrible person, but actually all other people are! I wanted to be nice, but in this cold, empty universe you can be either a predator or prey. The peace is a lie, there is only passion! Through passion I gain strength! Through strength I gain victory! Justine Tunney posted:Now my dear reader, people like you and me, we probably don’t need powerful authority figures telling us what to do. : I really am one of you... why won't you like me?! Edit: Justine Tunney posted:In many ways, I feel that geeks already rule the world, we just haven’t figured out how to reign. So we need to up our game, get smart, and start asking ourselves what we can do to put the fear in all these people. We need to start retaliating against their aggressions. We must not tolerate their gestures of disrespect. They ought to be kept under our thumb at all times. Eventually their impertinent chicanery will be worn down into obsequious submission. Once that happens, we’ll be able to resume our innately benevolent disposition and be the kind, friendly geeks we always were. Except this time we’ll be deified rather than derided for the exact same behavior. : Release your anger! We shall rule the galaxy together! Aquinas spoke of the mythical City on the Hill. Soon that city will be a reality, and we will be crowned its kings. Or better than kings... GODS! Justine Tunney posted:If the patriots were smart, they would have simply demanded their own king. They could have said, “Screw you George! We don’t want to want to be ruled by a dude on the other side of the ocean; America should be ruled by an American.” Had they done that, George Washington could have been crowned, and maybe he could have avoided a war by pledging fealty to King George. Then King George III gets a promotion to Emperor George III. It would have been awesome because the western world would become more powerful, Americans could roll their own government, and no one has to die. Everyone wins. : OK, guys, here's my idea for American Revolution. Are you listening? No, really, what if instead of revolting for democracy, we revolted for, like, an American king? But here's the catch - he would be subservient to the English, so they wouldn't have to invade us! Everyone wins! Justine Tunney posted:This is something we’ve known since antiquity—democratic systems are always ruled by powerful hidden actors who pull all the strings. I know this to be true, because I myself was the invisible dictator of Occupy. Holy loving poo poo, I give up. I can write nothing that could top this.

There is more...Justine Tunney posted:One thing I learned after years of organising within the Occupy Movement, is that when no formal channels exist, everyone starts aggressively vying for power. There wasn’t any cooperation, because every two-bit loser with a sense of entitlement would come down to the park, organise a group of people to sit around in a circle arguing, and then start telling reporters they were the one in charge. Then when they realised that I controlled all the media channels, they’d start fighting me for control! It was awful. I had to spend at least half my time putting down all these micro-rebellions. Time I’d’ve preferred to spend working. Justine Tunney posted:But you’d be a fool if you thought they were going after me personally. I’m nobody important. But notice how in every single one of those headlines, there’s the name of a certain company that does nothing but build cool new technologies that they give away for free? Why on earth would reporters want to attack such a happy and benevolent corporation? Why do reporters want money out of politics?

Tunney should be paraded around for an anti-bullying campaign. Just let her talk and afterward go, "look, if you bully people, you're gonna make more assholes like this. Be cool to other people so they grow to become cool people and not Justine Tunneys." Somebody made fun of her for being a nerd in high school and she never got over it even though she works for Google and has pretty much Made It in life now.

The future according to Justine Tunney:quote:McPartments will be a global enterprise with an abundance of apartments in every major city around the world. Only six different models of apartments will be offered, and they’ll be built exactly the same everywhere around the world. This is essential for breaking down the cultural barriers which hitherto hath hindered economic development. If you’re an American flying to Shanghai to work for six months, you won’t have to be afraid when you walk outside the airport and see a strange, terrifying, and unfamiliar world. You can rest assured that a comfy McPartment will be waiting for you and it’ll be exactly as you’d expect. : Do other cultures scare you shitless? In our perfect future, they won't! quote:McPartments will also have a website that makes your apartment a few clicks away. You won’t be forced to go through the corrupt broker cartels that charge $15,000 to show you around Manhattan for six hours. You won’t have to fly across the world just to pick a place. You just click and go to your new home. : In our perfect future you can easily relocate wherever your corporate master needs you. our new room will look the same as your old room, so you won't miss anything. What do you mean about neighborhood? Friends? Is that some weird word for coworkers? quote:Why does civilisation decay? It’s because in a globalised world of McPartments, you won’t be able to find a job unless you’re willing to leave your friends, family, and everything you’ve ever loved behind. Sure, they could move with you rather cheaply. But they might like it where they currently live. But don’t worry, you’ll still be able to get plenty of face-time on Google Hangouts. : Ah, those people. See, you can always talk to them through Google Hangouts. See, problem solved!

I get the feeling that "poor people are violent, unthinking brutes whose poverty is their own fault for being too lazy to learn to program, and we should end welfare to force them to either become programmers or the slaves of programmers" might actually get you some sage nods of agreement in the ball pit.
