    I had difficulty understanding this meme, as I am not a programmer (wife is). Only after I read your reply to maria, was I able to piece the framing of this.

    But I see the other side of this frame:
    both websites are capitalism at their peaks.
    Precisely because they don’t want to compensate us correctly, is the reason why “2 🏳️‍⚧️women” were not hired to do either tasks.
    Why fairly compensate, when labor can be stolen⸮

    for the folks that don’t know, I am black anarchist, we should all earn our means of production. VCs like Bluesky Social PBC & Microsoft can commission us.
    But they are in the interest of theft. So,

            Seeing the opposite perspective of a critique?
            You know there are 10 characters with different perspectives on this meme, right?

            has literacy really died?

            how do you read manga, and not read perspectives of multiple characters, and not empathize their positions? I am empathizing with the villains of the meme, workers vs capitalists.

                Reread my response from the top.

                I learned Chloé used this meme to talk about programming.
                I also see programming corporations, capitalists, do not pay what we are owed.
                Neither does Bluesky PBC, or Pornhub.

                Why are you having difficulty comprehending basic characters in this meme?

          Not sure if you should use the word “goons” next to the orange website in that way.

          On the other hand, maybe you should.

            I’m using the word from the meaning before wankers decided “following instructions” was the same profession.

      This is about open source, the two trans women were never going to be paid. Instead of a trans woman, a vibe coder came up with it, whatever the project is.

        Not all repositories in github are OS.
        Even in the event this is gratis development, there’s not enough trans women to do all talks sloppers demand.
