Or my former coworker who let his gardening hobby
The implicit level of privilege here can not go unacknowledged. That’s a fundamental part of the problem regardless of how some individual feels about it.

Capitalism has always been broken.
But the underlying problem is the ideology aka “economics”. It’s what fuels these kind of dumb questions. Nothing broke. It’s a feature not a bug.

Why is learning a trade only considered a last resort?
Because it’s not even an option for most people.

Could be better?
- Comment on Anon is 23 2 weeks ago:
The deprivation of basic human needs and the concomitant necessity of serving capital… These are the foundations of capitalism.
It’s a feature, not a bug.

You’re assuming this exists tho…

You just gotta accept a job that’s way worse than what you got your PhD for.

Even white privilege will run out as the planet continues to be destroyed.

So existence is a net negative? I’m fairly pessimistic but that seems somewhat extreme.

I’ve seen it around Africa. Usually related to where there’s a bunch of Jehovah’s Witnesses.
So it’s USA again. Usual bullshit colonialism.

Pretty sure jews didn’t own slaves back then.
- Comment on thoughts and prayers for science 3 weeks ago:
How many people have prayed for the sick over the years? That’s the foundation for public support of scientific research. Science is a social pursuit that shouldn’t be credited solely to some priestly class of “scientists”.

- Comment on Bill to raise minimum wage to $25 an hour will be introduced in Senate 1 month ago:
Less minimum wage should be tied to inflation, more minimum wage should be tied to congressional salary.
These two wages should be the same.
- Comment on Bill to raise minimum wage to $25 an hour will be introduced in Senate 1 month ago:
Yes, people are generally in touch with reality on this topic.

Who is “you”? I don’t think the democrats are here. They don’t give a shit.

This is in really poor taste considering what happened to the kid in the picture.
We should oppose fascism without belittling its victims, regardless of which state they’re under.
- Comment on Do you think that Edward Snowden is a hero? 1 month ago:
It’s wild how many people downvote this perspecive.
I imagine people can’t understand the evil that snowden has done, because we never confront the evil that we all do as victims of capitalism.
- Comment on Do you think that Edward Snowden is a hero? 1 month ago:
Government institution = fascist services.
The NSA? Yes ofc.
- Comment on Do you think that Edward Snowden is a hero? 1 month ago:
No. He’s just another dude like anybody else.
He lived a life of serving empire. It’s admirable that he repented but that doesn’t make him a hero, especially versus people who have spent their lives doing good all along.
