Dude same. I fucked up a lot of potential relationships when I was younger because I expected it to “be like the movies.”

They’ll just ask ChatGPT what to do while the world burns.

Honestly I never understood this. I grew up with the internet so I’ve always had access to porn from a young age (If anything it was even easier back than). And pretty much everyone that’s 35 years or younger did as well and I’d say generally we all turned out fine. At least not any worse off than any other generation. And honestly the only negative side effect it had on me was having unrealistic expectations the first time I actually had sex.

There will always be alternatives. And honestly I don’t blame them for going to an even more Chinese app. Your data is going to get taken and used against you anyway so you might as well give it to China and fuck over the US companies that are directly fucking you over.

I’m not saying it’s the right mindset, I’m just saying I get it.

I mean when it comes to bad takes these days, it’s not the worst take I’ve ever seen. It’s not like they are rolling back every decision they ever made just to appease Trump like every other tech company. I’ll just wait and see what they actually do vs sharing one of their opinions out of many. Go back 5ish years and this post by them wouldn’t have even caused an outrage.

Still not stoked about this either, just to be clear. I’m just trying not to jump to conclusions.

I’m honestly surprised more content creators on TikTok haven’t raised a stink about this from what I’ve seen. Agree with it or not, for some people this is their livelihood.

God damnit I literally just got Proton going like 4 days ago.

You sound like such a bottom right now.

My go to is still surprised Pikachu face.

As a non-Canadian, what exactly did this guy do to become so unpopular? You don’t need to write an essay, just some bullet points or something.

I never trusted Honey to begin with but this goes far deeper than I ever expected. I always wondered “yeah, but where do they get their money?” I always figured it was just a way to take people’s data and sell it to data brokers (which they probably also do, let’s be honest) but this is just blatant fraud. Stealing affiliate money from links and having companies pay them to purposefully give out worse coupon codes is just devious through and through. It’s basically free money and everybody else, whether influencer or consumer, get fucked over in the process.
