This is the most carceral ass Safeway I’ve ever been in. Bars everywhere, multiple security guards, you have to scan your receipt for the gate to open in order to exit, and if you don’t buy anything an employee has to open the gate to let you out.
Keep in mind, this is in an “expensive” neighborhood. I can only imagine how grimy it’s about to when they bring the Safeway Prison Program to “the hood.”
Oh look, obstacles to exiting quickly in case of an emergency like earthquakes, or fire, or a mass shooter which will result in a higher body count. Can't imagine that going poorly at all.
Immediately reminded of the fire in Paraguay at a grocery store. How is it relevant? Well, after the owner ignored and bribed his way out of pretty much all safety regulations which caused a massive explosion inside, he had his security people lock the goddamn doors and not let people out unless they paid for their groceries. Over 300 people died.
When the original case ended with no charges for the owner, people rioted. The supreme court vacated the original judgement. In the US I'm sure a similar case will be met with shrugs as well because we are a dystopia.
On February 23, 2023, Adams posted a video in which he characterized Black people as a "hate group" and announced that he was "done helping blacks as it is no longer a rational impulse", claiming that he had "done it all his life and the only outcome is getting called a racist", and advised his white readers to "get the fuck away from them as fast as possible" and "I am also really sick of seeing black Americans beating up non-black citizens".[89][90] As a result of these statements, Dilbert was pulled from The Plain Dealer.[91]
The thing that keeps Elon up every. single. night is that maybe he's actually in the "NPC/doesn't matter" column. His whole self is built around protecting himself from this niggling doubt, and no amount of likes will ever make the feeling go away

The irony of his mars obsession being that the overview effect or merely peeking at the cosmos for a moment in its vast, empty nigh-infinity without the thin barrier of earth sky would probably drive him as mad as an HP Lovecraft protagonist

That Paraguayan shop owner thought exactly the same as the bolder, right up until people said, “fuck this, we’ve had enough”
It’s a tale as old as time, I feel. People will take it right up until they don’t anymore.

the most humor that Musk can deliver is the knowledge that one of the wealthiest people in the world is desperately shitposting on the sinking platform that he owns, most likely pantsless on the sofa, on a Saturday night
Local Kroger stores installed gates at the entrance and exits
You don't need to scan a receipt to get out but it limits the amount of people than can go in and out in an amount of time and every time I go in I loudly exclaim how much a fire hazard they are
Love going to get groceries and being treated like cattle going to the feed lott
Yeah seeing they are dropping Dilbert now feels like "oh wow so you finally have paid attention to what he's been saying for years or is it some new awful? Oh new awful awesome."
Adams has been a dip shit for so long, SO LONG!
I would like some money because these are artisanal nuggets of wisdom philistine.
He just ran out of plausible deniability at this point is all, they don't actually care what he says
That's 100% what it is, before they could hide behind the Michael Jordan "Conservatives buy our paper" but if he's out there screaming he's a racist instead of just implying it, they can't ignore it.
I still believe he'll be back when the heat is off, because oh man Dilbert is so funny yo.

Ever since 2016 I've noticed more and more of the racists, bigots, and fuckwits of all stripes have started to cease using the euphemisms that once gave them plausible deniability for their horrid beliefs. There's a video on this that I recall basically saying when euphemisms stop being used that's a very bad sign because it indicates the people who used them no longer think they'll be punished for going mask off, meaning society is shifting and not for the better.

Last year, Adams introduced the first black character to Dilbert.
His schtick was that it was a hire specifically only for diversity, but the guy self-identified as white, so instead, everybody called themselves black, thus circumventing the diversity requirements.
It's astounding that Adams survived that, and decided to double down on the racism.
Is Adams responding to something else or is this little temper tantrum entirely about getting a bad response to his dumb "black character is a diversity hire and identifies as white" storyline? I can't even see how HE could spin that as "helping black people".

It's always interesting how these self-styled "independent thinkers" who don't fall into our mundane "left/right" categories sure do only ever seem to flock together with right wing racist shitbirds.
Real interesting.
Ah, it stinks, it sucks, it's anthropologically unjust

The backlash began following an episode this past week of the YouTube show, “Real Coffee with Scott Adams.” Among other topics, Adams referenced a Rasmussen Reports survey that had asked whether people agreed with the statement “It’s OK to be white.”
Most agreed, but Adams noted that 26% of Black respondents disagreed and others weren’t sure.
So less a response to something, and more of an excuse to say what he was already thinking.
What an incredibly stupid question? What does it even mean? What would it mean to not be "Ok" to be white in this context? Someone was looking to start a fight and I guess they got what they wanted.

Yeah, like, it is an easily misleading question.
Like, conceptually? Yeah, alright, being white is, uhh, fine.
Actually saying the phrase "It is OK to be white"? I dunno man, I'd be giving you a lot of side eye for voicing that.
Seems pretty easy to get a lot of different assumptions based on what the person hears, instead of what you actually meant. Bad question all around.

This feels like the more pertinent bit of the whole dust up
The creator of the Dilbert comic strip faced a backlash of cancellations Saturday while defending remarks describing people who are Black as members of “a hate group” from which white people should “get away.”

well you see the thing is that white supremacists have spent the last few years turning "It's okay to be white" into a new rallying cry-slash-dogwhistle

Yeah the Overton Window has been getting shoved to the right as of late, and it sucks so much that the President, ostensibly the leader of the party ostensibly in opposition to the Far Right in this country, can't even hold some press conferences to unequivocally condemn this shit, much less actually push federal legislation to protect against GOP-held state legislatures stripping away people's rights and criminalizing their very existence.
it's not that he can't condemn them so much as he wholeheartedly agrees with them, as do all dem leadership, but they have to keep up appearances at least somewhat to keep the "blue no matter who" crowd satiated

no need; his meme game is strong, after all
So despite being a complete idiot, at least that guy had slightly more self awareness than Musk.

No, no, you’re correct.
He just let the mask slip alllllllll the way off, well past any plausible deniability this time.
