A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. A showerthought should offer a unique perspective on an ordinary part of life.

Rules

  1. All posts must be showerthoughts
  2. The entire showerthought must be in the title
  3. Avoid politics
    1. NEW RULE as of 5 Nov 2024, trying it out
    2. Political posts often end up being circle jerks (not offering unique perspective) or enflaming (too much work for mods).
    3. Try c/politicaldiscussion, volunteer as a mod here, or start your own community.
  4. Posts must be original/unique
  5. Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct-----

They are, because they're made up of humans with human health risks. The shareholders just dont realize that yet.

Or they think the consequence won't apply to them, and they're probably right. The nz compounds are real.

Yeah things will clear up just in time when their food runs out. Just wait.

"The shareholders" usually equates to a couple of insanely wealthy majority holders. The rest are mostly just regular people with regular people opinions of things.

This means nothing except that we are all implicated on the destruction of the planet. Burn the Altars of Wall Street and the world will heal.
