I fucked up my algo watching animal grooming and cute cat videos. Funny enough something I like to watch because it's soothing has turned into something that ruins my day.

Kind of fucked that people are using animal abuse for clicks.

      Ch!nlords call it "numbing" and do it on purpose to themselves and each other. I'm pretty sure at least some of Google's workers are also ch!nlords.

        I’m pretty sure at least some of Google’s workers are also ch!nlords.

        There was a post here months ago about an official statement from some suit at Google claiming how they aren't a political platform and other handwaving capitalist bullshit in response to their employees protesting Google's supportive relationship with Israel. Screenshots from some social media platform for techbros were posted wherein this topic was being discussed, just despicable reactionary shit from everyone involved. My memory of it may be exaggerated by the rage I felt but it made me think of a fucking /pol/ thread exclusively populated by Silicon Valley type neckbeards. Google and Microsoft were among the companies these filth were working for.

        I previously tried to find the post with search but haven't had luck.
