Capitalism. The people calling the shots and keeping the profits are not the people doing the work.
It’s bad and will continue to be bad for everyone except the top layer of rich people.


Aside from the possibility of me being unclear, your extremely aggressive response is uncalled for. Furthermore, “everyone” is not evident given there’s a total of 3 votes on the post.
My intended point was it would be nice if people were better, and could admit fault. They can’t. That’s a common human behavior that’s infuriating. They’d rather double down. I was agreeing with you.


I’m not sure how you inferred from me lamenting that it’s impossible for people to simply grow up and admit fault, that I think that it is possible. You seem to have read my post… not even backwards, but just wrong.


I feel like my religious liberty isn’t respected. My religion considers capitalism to be a sin in line with theft. When you don’t give to the poor, you sin. Go on, Alito. Rule for my liberty.


It’s just rubs MAGA’s noses in the fact that they were wrong, which anyone who’s ever met knows will just make them double down.
This is true but man is it an infuriating property of humans. It’s a stupid emotional response because that’s easier. Just be mature enough to grow and change. It’s okay. Impossible request, I know.
When I was in elementary school, a teacher said like “I haven’t had a drink in 5 years” and I said “Wouldn’t you, like, die?”
I don’t know if he thought I was fucking with him, or my parents told me not drinking booze was lethal, or what, but he didn’t like laugh and clarify what he meant.


I think most people are so disorganized in their thinking, they can’t “prompt” well. There’s a lot of unclarified assumptions and leaps in how many people communicate
Some people are better at them than others. I’ve had a couple toe-curling fellations, and a lot of “that’s enough dear” ones.
I have a game of ttrpg Vampire the requiem and one of the guys insists on saying variations of “I’m going to suck that guy” straight faced (heh).
One time I couldn’t figure out how to do something in this old game I was replaying. Typed in the problem, and found an old forum post of mine where I explained what to do in that section. At least I didn’t do a classic “nevermind - solved it” post back then.


When I was on unemployment I asked them what the state expected me to do if I still didn’t have a job despite my best efforts, and the unemployed benefits ended. They just awkwardly laughed.
We live in the bad place because we let people be rich, and then let them make the rules.


Right? But it was so … Short sighted, to think it would last forever and you’d never need to organize.


I remember an old coworker said he was anti union. “I’d just find another job if I didn’t like the one I had”, he said. Bold claim.


Criminal penalties for decision makers. Jail time. Disgorgement of profits.


Maybe it’s like micro transactions - once you break the seal you’re much more likely to keep going.


I used to do a lot more… economic activity. Then I got laid off and haven’t been able to find a job that pays even half what I was getting. So fuck them.


Have to have severe penalties. It’s the only thing some people understand
I believe you even though that’s kind of sad. I’m not sure which of “they thought this dead animal picture was good” or “they don’t have friends to take a better picture” or “it didn’t even occur to them to ask a friend to take a picture” are worse.
I don’t think “decent Nazi” is a valid combination
