I am once again saying that Americans are not just illiterate, they engage in competitive illiteracy.

saw a good reply that went:

social media poster: in my post I used the Torment Nexus Metaphor to highlight how tech bros misunderstanding the Torment Nexus Metaphor will go on to build the Torment Nexus

social media network CTO: at long last, i have misunderstood the Torment Nexus Metaphor at the heart of the classic social media post "Don't Misunderstand The Torment Nexus Metaphor"

I have to admit that It never occurred to me. A tech bro might literally say the torment nexus is when you're being mean to me or my boss.

the tweet is right in front of him. he grabbed it, retweeted it, and yet still clearly did not read it cuz that's not what the fucking tweet means.

Well, now it's my torment nexus...

but AD references aside, this has greatly improved my understanding for how/why all the AI shit is the way it is

How convenient that it is simply a negative experience of the social network, and not the entire existence of the social network.

yea no wonder they think chatgpt is magic lol these people have sub gpt level of reading comprehension

“Get told “no” more often in your life,” is what I want to scream at this dipshit whenever he has a flash of introspection and wonders why he has dogshit takes.

The great thing is that the Torment Nexus tweet is just straight-up "this group of people sucks". It couldn't be any simpler!

Someone told me no, so now i'm a member of the NDSAP
