What would this look like under previous attempts at communism?
No petite bourgoisie to eat for you and no religion to fool you? Those functions just collapse to:

- Comment on Why is the US so into Israel? 2 weeks ago:
A wealthy elite from Wall Street to Hollywood with lots in between is a large attractor to support Israel. Every political campaign has to court the jewish vote regardless of stance to stay competitive in votes and campaign finance.

Well, there’s your problem. Don’t get high for the job you have. Get high for the job you want.
- Comment on If I submit a question to /nostupidquestions/ and I get downvoted does that mean my question was actually stupid or is it a paradox? 3 weeks ago:
Some people take “No Stupid Questions” to mean, it’s ok to ask a genuine question in a safe space where you won’t be made to feel like an idiot for the asking.
Others take it as a challenge. “Oh yeah? I’ll show you a stupid question.”

I just KNOW there is a record label executive with degrees in economics (math) and a side interest in quantum computing who is taking notes trying to figure the opportunity to produce the next thousand years of our greatest music.

How long is that?

5 what? Decades? Years? Months?
4,3…

I have no idea how to even try to tackle this. But this is one of the best “no stupid questions” in a long while. Not only, is it not stupid, it’s inspired. Complex yet impractical, thus perfectly suited to this sub. Bravo!

What if “burning cash” wasn’t a metaphore? The grift collects cash. Then there is a pit surrounded by stones and a significant pyre?

Argumentum absurdum is a stinky cologne. I recomend you try a different body mist.
If you stoped repeating the same mistakes over and over again and tried to think “where could I be right” instead of “can you find a wrong and disprove” you would be a more reasonable person to talk to.
E.g. (cause you clearly need it)
You think the rarity of Bill Gates disproves my point. I say a friend who is neurodivergent and a high school drop out literally just bought cleaning supplies and started going door to door to businesses on a strip asking if they needed a good scrubbing. He did a few gigs on the spot for pocket change, but quickly found several of the 2nd story offices were displeased with their after-hours cleaning contractors. A few offered a trial to prove my dude could do a good job. Once proven they offered annual contracts. Boom! Entrepreneur. Today he has 3 vans and 7 employees. Still doesn’t know what standard deviation is.
This type of opportunity is everywhere. I could go on all day. But why? The point is made and you’ll either get it, or not.

As long as my right to destroy is intact, it’s deplorable, but manageable.
- Comment on How do I actually find a job that isn't retail? 3 weeks ago:
None of what you say is wrong. Statistically speaking you’re making two mistakes:
You are overemphasizing what is the primary path for most and concluding that everything else should be excluded. Why cut someone struggling from 31.46% of the jobs that don’t fit the optimal 1st standard distribution?
It literally isn’t as rare as you think. I know a great many overeducated and unemployed as well as a great many high-school dropouts that are Entrepreneurs, Sr Consulting Software Architects and Successful Artists.
When someone is struggling, consider the normal path might be why. A broader approach that doesn’t prejudice viable alternatives for the crime of being “not the most popular option” is prefferrable.
- Comment on How do I actually find a job that isn't retail? 3 weeks ago:
This is good. But “need” is perhaps too strong. Lots of highly successful people without education. Lots of highly educated people who couldn’t cut it. Plus it too has barriers of it own (costs, loansharking student loans)
It’s good, but isn’t the only way.

Have you considered the “other” economy?
- Prostitution or pimping
- Drug selling (B2B naturally, not retail lol)
- Drug manufacturing
- Panhandling
- Arms Trafficking
- Terrorism (eco, political, religious,)
- Religion (start your own church. There is a low barrier to entry here as a street preacher, plus you can combine this with some of the others, but you can work your way up to megachurch pastor with your own jets.)
- Mugging/Home Invader/Burglary
- Crime Enforcer
- Politician
- Spy/snitch (private/corporate/government)
It’s really about understanding yourself. What are your needs? What are your natural strengths? When you do what hou love, you’ll never work a day in your life.

Which is hillarious because I’ve been kicked out of Karaoke bars for laughing too hard at my own rendition of Islands in the stream by Dolly Parton with my drunk buddy as Kenny Rogers. It was magical and hillarious.
Karaoke bars are often polluted with a pestillence of people who think they are undiscovered musical geniuses who are minutes away from being discovered by a record label executive trolling the depths of karaoke shitholes looking for the next great pop-star. Anything that fucks with their discoverability makes them go coocoo.
- Comment on Hamdurger season 4 weeks ago:
Not really. Ground meats with shit in them with casings (sausage) will cook roughly the same as other ground meats with shit in them without casings. (Patties) Very similar.
