Oracle: Old Rich Asshole Called Larry Ellison

Guaranteed Oracle will do its best to marginalize 100% of all contributions while maximizing its profits.

They’re gonna make everyone download a new app that’s just for Americans so have fun with that. What sort of cool teen is excited about an OracleTok where they replaced Brazilian models with SQL lessons and propaganda chosen by a bunch of old ass fascists?

Man cannot live off sea shanties alone. We’ve proven that twice now. That’s why the meme went away and 18th century mutinies happened.

One can’t help but point out that there were no World Wars before sea shanties, and now there are two (soon, 3).

It’s true. The Bronze Age collapse even blames “sea peoples.” They weren’t singing Rihanna. It was sea shanties keeping morale high.

The oligarch propaganda machine is preparing to shift into high gear. Larry’s son bought CBS and is slated to install Bari Weiss as their news boss. Saw a headline about him also eyeing a purchase of CNN. Keep all of this in mind in the months and years to come when you see material from these sources.

It'll be fun to see how long it takes them to completely destroy the app.
