Murse

Activating your toaster is cruel because it exposes it to extreme heat!

Loading you laundry machine is assault because it didn’t consent!

Turning your computer off is murder!!!

…um… would you mind pointing me to the other internet that wasn’t soiled by AI that genZ is using to dodge all the AI slop that would otherwise be forced on them? I’d very much like to use it.

AI slop was absolutely forced on them. Even if they’re not personally balls-deep into ChatGPT or some shit, they’re still stuck navigating an enshittified internet that’s gone from bad to shitstorm in just a few years almost entirely due to AI.

It’d be frustrating as all hell to try to write a research paper or piece together a presentation using today’s internet.

Millennial here. The only thing surprising about a downward trend is that it didn’t start with Gen X and get progressively worse, to include us, with each generation.

As time goes, our planet gets closer to cooking us alive, Nazis are fucking surging in popularity, and the economy spirals further out of control… Yeah, that’s gonna have a not-so-great impact on our brain.

Looking at gen Z specifically, between COVID and AI slop, we kinda just destroyed like half of their education, so if they’re performing poorly on some academic metric: YEAH NO SHIT.

Alpha is even more fucked… But not as fucked as then gen after them!

…well if we’re going to legislate something out of gaming ‘fOr tHe kIDs’ let’s start with the slot machine bullshit and other gambling mechanics seem in things like loot boxes.

At the very least, the presence of that stuff should be an automatic Adult rating. With less predatory (but still predatory) things like subscriptions being rated as Mature.

Guessing that’s not what the dickhead in the article is talking about, but I’m not gonna bother reading another rant from some pearl-clutching cunt imagining a bunch of fake problems caused by video games.

It’s weird that this was the straw that broke the camel’s back, but honestly whatever: if fewer people are supporting that horrible chain, I’ll consider it a win regardless of their motivation.

“No you see, it would be a lot better, we just made it suck on purpose!”

Same energy as “I could have gotten an A on that test easy, I just decided to answer randomly just to see my teacher’s reaction!”.

The stench of bullshit is strong.
