Not to be that guy but you can easily find something a thousand times worse with suburbia than some measly data centers.

Those things eat up land at a much larger scale than anything else aside from farming or logging.

That’s because it’s propaganda. The person who created the image has a particular point of view and has manipulated what they choose to present to push that view forward.

Whether that view is correct or not is irrelevant to the fact that this is manipulative.

Post more images of things being built! Thanks for having beautiful summer days as the before, and fugly winter as the after to make the difference that much starker, the point of view we’re intended to have after viewing this almost wasn’t clear enough

Some day, the people may rise up… And maybe all of these will burn.

I like to think the employees will do it. Who knows, though…

I just know it needs to be done.

To me, the problem seems to be bad regulators. They could have mandated that data centers have solar panels on their roof. They could have mandated a certain amount of greenery around the warehouse, so that the area was less impactful. It’s been a known issue that unregulated Capitalism will cause mass destruction quite frequently for decades if not centuries. You can’t expect every business to ‘do the right thing’ every time…that would be stupidly optimistic of regulators.

Are these places extremely patrolled and secure? I’m just surprised people aren’t burning them to the ground or disrupting them some way or somehow

Let’s just all die

This disgusts me and angers me beyond words

This is violence against the bulk of humanity

And still no jobs…

You took this from Reddit’s r/interestingasfuck and posted it to c/mildlyinteresting? Clearly neither is a good fit because this isn’t interesting at all.

Makes me sad

Looks like they cleared the area with agent orange 😌

Using the data centers when you posted this, classic sign of these times

There is no greater threat to humanity, than humanity itself. There is so much evidence of this throughout history, and yet we have collectively learnt nothing from it. As a species, we are the most destructive force in existence, and time and time again the value of the almighty dollar, that we ourselves have created, is put first above all else. Even the existence of the only known planet that we can successively survive on, is put behind the priority of the dollar.

On the plus side, at least there’s no bloody rain in Melbourne this weekend!

Sorry shady, I meant trees causing shade
