ByteDance (TikTok) employees: Would you work for Hitler?

https://www.teamblind.com/post/ByteDance-employees-Would-you-work-for-Hitler-FRSxfW1c

I don't even want y'all to dunk on this, I just want to share this because it's so funny. no dunking if you can resist took-restraint

If you don't know what this website is btw, if HackerNews is Reddit for tech bros, then TeamBlind is 4chan for tech bros. Unfortunately very useful for career related information and specific company/tech industry information since everybody there is obsessed with climbing the job ladder

nerd immediately btfo by top reply:

The British Prime Minister Churchill killed at least 3x more people than Hitler, the British government killed more than 150 million people in India.

They're objectively worse, and yet you name your Halls, libraries, and children after him. 🧐

Hitler was rather inefficient, he routed people to the camps. The British were so efficient, they turned entire Indian states into their camp.
- Hitler literally mad that the English achieved lebensraum first.
- China also restricted Han births while leaving Uyghur births alone. What kind of genocide is this?
the black book of communism authors must be mad af now that they're realizing that libs would have believed even a billion deaths without hesitation
- 99 Marxillion people died under tankieism.
  
  The apocryphal story about when Bush was told 2 Brazilian people were killed in 9/11
  
  And he sits down in shock and asks how many a brazilian is
- Eleventy-bajillion people killed and you question our methodology with mockery?
- "One death is a tragedy. One million, a statistic."

- At this point I think people might buy that communism killed them personally
I'm guessing the atrocities of the CCP haven't been as well covered in media so many people are unaware.

My dude, have you seen media?
- Admins are censoring this post, let's get it to the front page 'pedes!
- We were so busy watching the Chinese Balloon, we didn't even notice that everyone in Xinjiang was executed, resurrected, and then executed a second time.
  
  Juche necromancy does it again!

- Don’t you know CNN stands for China National News, MSNBC standards for Marxist Stalinist News for Business Communists, and WSJ standards for Warriors of Social Justice? The west’s media is owned by the CCP. You can’t trust them.
  
  Conservatives literally believe this
Please point me to an 80M people genocide performed by the American government, I'll wait.

Never thought I'd see the day people thought The Black Book was lowballing its numbers.
- The US has killed 20M people directly since WW2, so we could probably demonstrate 80M easily if we tried
  
  they're also responsible for every single death that wouldn't have happened without their coups
  
  not easy to calculate, but I'd imagine we could reach a few hundred million
- USians need a law against denial of indigenous genocide. Every death since Europeans colonised native land has been part of it. It continues to this day. Or against trans people. Or immigrants at the southern border locked up in cages, separated from family, being forcibly sterilized. This smug asshole doesn’t care about people dying other than to drum up reason to enrich the military-industrial complex by going to war with sovereign nations they don’t like.
soft holocaust denial
Would you work for Hitler?

We do this experiment every day and the answer is overwhelmingly "Yes, as long as the pay is competitive and the benefits are decent".

there is no such thing as a private Chinese company

Make up your fucking minds, would you? Has Communism Ever Been Tried or hasn't it?
- We do this experiment every day and the answer is overwhelmingly "Yes, as long as the pay is competitive and the benefits are decent".
  
  That's a weirdly high bar. I usually see it as "is he hiring?"
I'm torn between uninstalling Tiktok for being a standard attention-span-killing novelty app, and keeping it installed because the app's existence pisses off the western techbro crowd.
- I’m actually not allowed to have it installed on my phone if I’m staffed on a public sector project 🙄
  
  Not even a personal phone not used for work?
- My biggest problem with TikTok is that the channels I actually like don't produce a ton of content while the annoying cheapo content mill shit is an endless deluge I have to wade through in order to get what I'm here for.
  
  Like all social media, over a long enough timeline its just "Oops! All ads!"
  
  What about the following page? It's the only part of tiktok that I use.
- Permanently Deleted
- It's so good at what it does lol
  
  I keep it because there's times I want to be not aware of existence and for time to pass quickly when sleeping/drugs aren't an option. Bam, three hours gone
  
  Wish I could get into books as easily.
  
  It is because you have access to tiktok and similar things it's so hard to get into books. I'm no better, but the instant and certain fun of a short video just beats out the long, potentially low fun you get from a book.
- I’ve decided not to uninstall it cause I worry getting it again will be made difficult by my government overlords. I just don’t use it most days.
- Keep it installed, but get another app that can limit your daily time with it?
4chan for techbros

would you work for hitler???

Obviously, they already work for Raytheon ffs
- Pretty sure most if not all the guys in my high school class who took the hard math/science classes with easy English/social studies classes are now making six-figure salaries building bombs for weapons’ manufacturers.
  
  Hey now, a bunch of us are doing accounting software for earth-immolating energy companies.

always interesting that they always minimize what nazi germany did
Factually worse than hitler
Literal neo-nazi apologia
- not even neo just straight nazi
My mom used to have a boss whose last name was Hittler (two "t"s). Got a lot of joke mileage out of it when I was a kid.
- you live in Argentina, by chance?
  
  Spoken like a gringo who lives in a country that actually hosted former nazis and put them in positions of power.
poster neglected to post their TC, a big faux pas
- Testicular Circumference?
  
  Yes.
If you work for meta you’re supporting a genocide regime (unironically)
Ukrainian NATO man told me Hitler is le based, of course I would be honored to work for him (and by extension Chinazi)
why does this "tech" forum look like a wordpress site. At least hn looked ok.
- It's a Korean company
  
  Rest of the world is drastically behind America and Canada when it comes to UI/UX in my experience
  
  Depends, if you look at Linux some Chinese distros look better (e.g. Deepin).
  
  Western UI/UX is behind China/Japan. I know it's true because western techbros mald every time they see a chinese/japanese website.

is the genocide inflation going to stop before or after China has killed more people than have ever existed?
