Dell Derangement Syndrome (DDS)

A rare but rapidly spreading condition triggered when Michael Dell logs on, drops a “Go American” post, and starts sounding like he just got off a call with Donald Trump.

Symptoms include:

Immediate emotional spiral on internal boards

Writing a 9-paragraph manifesto no one asked for on the layoff site

Saying “this isn’t political” while being extremely political

Refreshing comments like it’s the stock ticker during earnings

Advanced stages:

Convincing yourself every product launch is now a campaign rally

Interpreting supply chain updates as coded political messaging

Believing your PowerEdge server has a voting preference

Diagnosis:
A corporate variant of Trump Derangement Syndrome but with more acronyms, fewer facts, and way worse comment sections.

Treatment:
Log off
Touch grass
Stay off layoff sites until mild sedation sets in

Make Dell Great Again.....................

Juzzz sticking together

@ep I mean, it's not racist to start with... and he's absolutely not wrong either lmfao. Go start working on your next protest sign bro

@et How so? Let me guess first! You think he's MAGA because he donated a few billion to a good cause that happens to be run by Trump!

@a2 Why would he be? He's very much an unofficial Republican and even if he wasn't, he's not a complete mo--n who believes there is a "king" in the US like all those id--ts who spent time making cute signs to stand on the side of a road and pretend there is a king...

@ep It's not racist at all. It's just a fact. Dell literally does hire more jeets than anybody else. Same with promotions. It's just cheaper and a bigger bang for the buck but, he's right nonetheless.

Not everything is racist you stupid liberal

@ep they're not wrong.

The irony of this post. Lol

@ab wow, racist much?

@a8 what you've just said is one of the most insanely id--tic things I have ever heard. At no point in your rambling, incoherent response were you even close to anything that could be considered a rational thought. Everyone in this room is now d-mber for having listened to it. I award you no points, and may God have mercy on your soul

@a8 In college I wrote a paper on how church’s used to run the charitable programs in cities and towns. But starting in the late 19th century and increasing dramatically in the 30s local charity was replaced by government largesse at the taxpayer expense.
The philosophy was “society needs to care for its poor and disadvantaged.” That is true, but government is not society.

The dependence on government replaced church activity in many cities.

@a1 I would if he actually meant it, but realistically he’s sticking it to us by converting American workers to jeets.

A lot of people just can’t help themselves. Blue states largely gave up religion over the past few decades, and most of those people replaced that hole with politics.

Ironically, it seems they still need something to believe in. Unfortunately, they chose CNN and MSNBC instead of a church or synagogue.

Is it safe to assume MD wasn’t at the No Kings march this past weekend?

I don’t know about you, but when MD drops a go American post I get a warm tingling feeling inside.
