Obedient cogs in the capitalist machine (x.com)

The culture war has poisoned minds, spreading the lie that schools are "grooming" children with Marxism and so-called gender ideology. Meanwhile, what they’re actually teaching kids is to be obedient cogs in the capitalist machine—conditioning them for lives of wage slavery and blind allegiance to the powers that exploit them.

Yawn. Was this written by an LLM? With a twitter link? Very berserk, no capitalist machine lol

So, let me get this straight—any post you don't agree with must’ve been churned out by some LLM, huh? Is that what you're implying?!

If you’re yawning and bored, maybe it’s time to stop reading and reconsider why you're even here. This is a community for people who discuss socialist stuff.

It was the boring, heard it all before, stock standard part that made me think LLM. Like, we know all this. Got anything interesting to say? You're preaching to the choir, the same old criticisms is just boring. And linking to twitter is just weird.

And linking to twitter is just weird.

X.com (formerly Twitter) is one of the biggest social media platforms out there. Tons of people use it. I get why you might not like it, but calling it "weird" to post there is a bit of a stretch. There's a lot more traffic on X.com than Lemmy.

It's a little odd if you're not a capitalist machine fan, from my perspective

In the main post, there's also a Mastodon account link, so both platforms are being used. All the major socialist parties use X.com.

It's no different than us using computers made by capitalist companies that profit more than workers. These are the tools we have right now, and we use them until something better comes along.

Also, it may be boring and old to you, but there are always newcomers joining our cause.
