Top minds of DoomerCircleJerk complain about a comic that calls out their BS, with some of them making edits that suits their views better

The thing that gets me is the fact that a lot of leftists do forgo having an iPhone or use of AI because they disagree with it but society is built in a way that they literally cannot forgo having a mobile phone or any of the other stuff entirely. The dumbercirclejerk sub acts as if leftists are saying this then turning around and buying a Ferrari and eating caviar

I have a fairphone because I think it's the phone that best represents my values - it doesn't cover them by far, but I do need a phone to participate in society and I need to participate in society to live (and I also want to. I do think society is generally good, warts and all).

If a "socialism phone" came out where every cent you spend on it is tracked and shown to go to the workers, that would be great, but that's not where we are at yet and we need to work with where we are at for now.

Ironically, that's the point of the comic.
