A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
Rules
- All posts must be showerthoughts
- The entire showerthought must be in the title
- Posts must be original/unique
- Be good to others - no bigotry - including racism, sexism, ableism, homophobia, transphobia, or xenophobia
- Adhere to Lemmy's Code of Conduct

I think technology's great, but the way people have chosen to use it is occasionally awful.
This is more in line with how I feel. Tech is great, but tech bros not so much...
The technology we create takes the form of the incentives that drive its' creation. If we create technology for the exploitation of others we shouldn't be surprised that people use it for the exploitation of others.
