- Comment on Grok Says It Would Kill Every Jewish Person on the Planet to Save Elon Musk 3 days ago:
None of that seems very hard
Find other people and invest with a group. You’ll end up with loads of companies with lots of small shareholders. If your shares become worth souch that you go over the 10M, you’ll have to sell some or have some taxes for taxes.
Maybe have governments fund independent investment foundations that can help setup startups
This isn’t even a utopia, it’s literally current capitalism with a small set of core rules added that will make a huge difference between now and how it could be.
It could be that nobody has to be poor anymore. Governments will have huge incomes so loads of money for socialist projects like free education and healthcare and housing.
The few problems I’ve seen mentioned so far, to me, are literally details that follow from the core rules.
Nobody can be worth more than X (and for now, say that X is 10M) and companies cannot be worth more than Y (let’s say 1 billion dollars). Both values can be +/- 5% if you hover at the limit, that doesn’t really matter much. What does matter is that we’re now finally all equal and still have capitalism as the core engine, allowing for all the freedoms we have today

I feel like Jenny is the kind of person where if anyone would ever decide to string her up from a tree that loads of people would come to watch and nobody would cut her down.
Everybody would just watch and feel a weight lifted from their shoulders
- Comment on Hey look, a giant sign telling you to find a different job 4 days ago:
the company owners aremulti million dollar assholes, that’s why we behave like this
Stop the multi millionaires
Nobody should be worth anything over 10 million. Anything after that should go 100% to taxes.
With that, governments can actually give out free healthcare, free education, universal basic income and all on a high quality because it will have the funding now that we finally stopped a few from hogging all the world’s resources

Also for trump and co to get rich quick. I imagine most people that lost money are magats. Not that i cate about them, they got what they went for, but this was definitely more than just a pipeline
- Comment on Grok Says It Would Kill Every Jewish Person on the Planet to Save Elon Musk 1 week ago:
Grok is an LLM, a fancy word distance measuring database, if you will, that has no opinions, it says nothing
Elmo put certain concepts about himself closer together, making it more likely that the database outputs phrases that are more positive about Elmo. It’s sad, Elmo is a sad puppet with multiple drug addictions, and a severe narcissistic personality mixed with a huge inferiority complex, somehow.
Elmo is the richest puppet in the world yet craves being loved yet is only capable of actions that make him more hated. So is Elmo’s curse. Elmo is sad.
Wanna avoid this sad story for other puppets?
Prohibit multi millionaires, cap personal netwoths at 10-20 million dollars. Nobody should be allowed to be worth more than that and any worth over that goes to taxes.
Prohibit companies to have a net worth of over a billion dollars. Anything over that, all to taxes

Well he ain’t making it to the end of his term, for sure, but can that brain aneurysm please hurry a little? I need a president that might cause the world to survive climate change and well, there isn’t much time left, if any at all
- Comment on Which countries combine high quality of life and strong equality? 1 week ago:
Nor really true. In most northwestern countries you’ll find a high quality of life even when not rich and though there is still inequality, it’s not even remotely comparable to the US, for example.

- Comment on Anon asks out a girl 1 week ago:
Is it? I’ve known girls like this
Not to say this is a woman’s issue, men can be assholes too, bit this is just the risk of approaching human beings
Pro tip: when people are with their friends they might feel the need to show off how cool they are or something, promoting responses like these. In my personal experiences, when in groups, kids and young adults tend to behave much more like an asshole whereas when they’re alone all of the sudden they behave like themselves.
If this is a true story, had he approached buyer alone, she might still have rejected him but have not been such a bitch about it

- Comment on Why do some people have so many tabs open on their browser? 2 weeks ago:
I easily hit 500+ tabs, usually against 1000 or so, and usually spread around over 40 windows on 4 different desktops, so it’s fairly wellp organized as all tabs in a window are about the same subject.
Most auto close after about 15 mins to spare resources because websites these days just are insanely heavy. I used to do 2000 sites with maybe 32GB mem, now I need a tab auto closer to be able to manage half of that.

Well since the bible is badly written fiction, cobbled together from dozens of books written over hundreds of years, based off other stories from hundreds of years before that period… Does it matter at all?
- Comment on be a friend to the animals 3 weeks ago:
There are very few people who have a problem with women weighing under 50 kilos, even back then. The “fat Monica” jokes showed her in a dat shit where she appeared well over a 100 kilos and there you can objectively say that that is less attractive.
If that’s not true then the question is a) where is the line? Am I required to be attracted to women over 150 kilos? 200 kilos? Because I’m not
People, men and women, are attracted to what they find attractive and most people find fit bodies attractive

extremely problematic
Oh boy, what did it wrong this time?
I’m sorry but whenever someone starts talking about something being problematic it’s mostly something that really isn’t a problem, it’s just a personal dislike

Don’t know what George Lopez is, but Friends was, I guess, somewhat similar to FP? Fo might sometimes go somewhat deeper into subjects, but then again, Friends was just simple by design. No need to think, just turn your brain off and have some innocent laughs to relax.
I think it did that quite well
- Comment on be a friend to the animals 3 weeks ago:
Eh?
Simple feel good comedy is just a distraction from reality
Yes? Yeah! That’s what we want! Just a few laughs to relax and I don’t have to think too deeply, what’s wrong with that?
Silo, severance, invasion
It’s like I’m talking about apples and you say “yeah but airplanes are much better!” and… I can’t eat an airplane, dude!
Friends was very good at what it pretended and intended to be: simple fun to relax and feel good, it is what people wanted which it was so insanely popular
