That is the joke, yes. It's a thin allegory about MAGA support for things that they were supposedly against, now that their candidate is doing them.
Interestingly, I think that article came out before the attack on Venezuela, which would be the most literal "blowing up". The actual attack kinda steps on the joke.
I've seen America's slowing over the last few decades and expected it to continue. I did not expect the rate to 10x because of a few people. Wow. Not a great time to be an American
I've self hosted my email on DO for over 10 years on the same IP address. I am registered with Gmail so they don't block. I sometimes get blocked by major sites from whom I receive spam. I am not a fan of group punishment which is what you advocate.
Yes, my wife left a school because it was being run by a drunk woman;
I did not accept a job at a _defense_ contractor (Lockheed)because they could not assure me my work would only be for defensive efforts
Isn't defence just a euphemism for war? I don't think many people assume they actually mean strict defensive efforts when countries talk about Defence Forces etc.
Continued working with my team to grow my granddaughter who at 15 months handles a spoon and fork to feed herself at each meal; drinks from a cup without assistance; can clean her face and understand everything she is told or asked (though sometimes with a devious smile makes what an adult might consider a poor choice.... She is testing her boundaries like she is supposed to do).
I have learned how to and produced 6 different embroidery patterns on various pieces of infant clothing.
I combined multiple web based directions to create a Wi-Fi enabled USB (from a raspberry pi W 2) to enable a link from my computer to my embroidery machine.
I made cookies and shared them with others creating a lot of joy
I'm visiting with my grandson in another state, modeling good parenting and offering help where I can.
Who the heck is so brain broken as to talk about their grandchild as a startup project and their family as a frigging team.
I have to almost need to see this as AI in order to maintain sanity because there’s no way an actual human being talked about a child—their human grandchild like he was a product.
You’re calling someone “brain broken” for writing a comment in a cute manner to make it sound like product development. It’s time to take a step back and relax.
It's clearly a joke. You've never heard people make corporate inspired comments about normal activities? Never had friends talk about sending them a calendar invite for dinner?
you're telling on yourself, highlighting that you're so humorless that you couldn't tell it was an intentional parody of corporate double speak, contrasting one of the most human experiences with one of the least human. It's ironic that you tried to call him brain broken lol
You're telling on yourself by admitting to, apparently, not considering that I COULD tell it was intentional parody, found the ironic humor in it, and STILL found it tasteless enough to call them out for talking about a child like they're a product.
Nah, no shade on the poster but AI slop would be better written, more saccharine and emphatic. You have to provide an AI generator very specific writing style prompts to come up with the same thing.
