Welcome
We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!
The Rules
Posts must be:
- Links to news stories from...
- ...credible sources, with...
- ...their original headlines, that...
- ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”
Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.
And that’s basically it!

I mean, I get the idea behind it.
Yeah. It takes a lot of work to express total disdain for the students in person. I can see how this robot expresses that contempt much more efficiently.
Don't attribute to malice etc
Not much difference these days.
That saying needs an update.
Maybe, "Don't attribute to stupidity that which is adequately explained by sociopathy."
If the idea was to shit on the class that was born right around 9/11, graduated during a global pandemic, and who is going to have to deal with both out of control climate change and AI taking their jobs, then it was executed beautifully. Otherwise it was extremely tone-deaf.
It's the thought that counts.
