So, Instagram has started pushing threads into users’ feed, and every now and then we get a glimpse into the unmoderated crapshoot that is that app…

L.E.: should be noted I do not have a threads account, have never even downloaded the app, this is sorta like “advertising” to try to convince you to move to their platform.

        I’m pretty sure it’s satire and not even trying to hide it considering all the angry emojis and the fact that they’re a comedy sketch duo.

          If they have anything to do with the lemmy instance of the same name I’m afraid that’s wishful thinking.

            There is room for this being an obvious joke about a fictional character and two grifters believing some of the things unironically in other situations.

      The fat, jolly, red-suit-wearing Santa as we know it today, created by Coca-Cola to sell more product, is a Marxist. TIL. 😂

        Take a lesson from Coca-Cola: If you can’t beat them, co-opt their propaganda.

        Turning Santa into a lesson for Marxism is fine by me.

        Revisionist history is really making the rounds these days.

        I just learned the other day Jesus was a Palestinian Arab which is really amazing because the history books seem to indicate that Jesus died before Islam was founded or the term Palestine had been placed on that piece of land by its colonizers.

        I’m learning so much from Instagram and tik tock. It’s amazing. Who needs university degrees anymore!!!
