Gonna need to stop looking at the internet cause its just white hot rage and wishing I could reach through the screen to savagely murder people and their entire families

    I have a LinkedIn account for work, which is obviously always filled with the most absolutely brain meltingly stupid shit, but today it's a lot of weird stuff like "please reach out to your Jewish friends, they are NOT ok. If they cancel meetings just let them. Blah blah." It's like if somebody was repeatedly punching another person, then the second they get punched back they act completely shocked and hurt and can't understand why it happened to them. It's even weirder because not every Jewish person I know views Israel the same way.

      LinkedIn is a cesspit of bourgeois ideology... just like 90% of the mainstream internet, but LinkedIn especially since it explicitly exists for careerist self promotion and opportunism.

        Exactly! I can't fucking stand watching people post shit like "Wow what an incredible journey this has been, I've finally achieved my lifelong dream to get this role." and they're like a mid-level manager at Salesforce or something.
