I mean if they increase my pay by 50-100%, I’ll “work” 60-80 hours. By which I mean continue to work 20 hours and pretend to work the rest of the time I say I’m working, while collecting the extra money.

Can they just stop making video game movies and have some originality for once? I thought the writer strikes were over. Why is shit still so uninspired?

You didn’t vote for the Democrats. Why would they do anything for you?

I live in one of the bluest cities in one of the bluest states in the US. And even here, the average Lemmy is nowhere near representative of the average person you meet in real life. If you think they are you are either deluding yourself or have an agenda to push.
Reddit is already an echo chamber and Lemmy just turns up the echo chamber dial to 100.

Apparently they’re so rich that their money keeps coming in without us because…
I mean, this is true. They can do nothing and probably make millions on interest. That said, it doesn’t mean a general stroke wouldn’t be effective. While the normal person would be perfectly happy with millions coming in every year for doing literally nothing, these people aren’t satisfied unless they are making billions off the labor of others while they do nothing.

Sounds like the point went completely over your head.

The younger generation has a problem with externalizing their issues to others without feeling responsible for these issues themselves.
There is always some other party with influence and power who should take care of them like a parent and when they don’t, everything is the fault of that “parent”.
For example, it’s the “DNCs fault” we’re in the state we’re in apparently even though a lot of people didn’t vote and encouraged others not to vote. The democrat party is not some nebulous nefarious entity that exists to cater to your whims. It’s made up of people. People like you who got together with other people to try to enact their views and vision for the country.
If you don’t like that vision, you need to get with other people who share your vision, start from the ground up, win local elections and start changing the party bit by bit. But this is hard work and much more difficult than screaming that the octogenarian politicians are ruining your life when nobody your age is actually doing anything to replace them because no younger people want to become career politicians.

What would be the motivation then to even start a company/corporation if every time it happens, it is seized and given away?

Can you point me to a real first world developed country not run by a dictator that doesn’t have captitalism? I need a reference to see that the alternative is better.

Just because they voted for Biden does not mean they were registered Democrats. A lot of people turned out for Biden because we were hot off the first Trump term so a lot of leftists/progressives/independents voted for Biden when they normally wouldn’t have. Unfortunately they have memories the size of a goldfish’s or legitimately hated Biden and didn’t turn out this time.

Gitmo was never an immigrant holding cell before for holding innocent individuals and families. Even if it didn’t exist Trump would have found some other place to set it up. Gitmo existing or not has nothing to do with anything.

There’s a machete wielding dude who just lingers at our local public park most days. He chases people around but so far no maiming. The police have stopped responding to calls about him.
