Not finding a job doesn't make you bad, jobs are difficult to find lately, for everyone.

@raccoon @vriska@lizards.live

The US fucking sucks lol, almost no social programs so if you're poor you get butt fucked by corporations and the capitalist class in general
@vriska@lizards.live @raccoon@hollow.raccoon.quest
The US is an oligarchy ran by corporate lobbyists and their pawns (libshit and cuckservative politicians)

If they directed money away from the military industrial complex they'd have more than enough to build a functional healthcare system

>If they directed money away from the military industrial complex they'd have more than enough to build a functional healthcare system
This is true and not true at the same time. It's true in the sense that we spend an obscene amount of money on killing machines. And, that the entire US economy and political system exists as a dictatorship of capital and to uphold that dictatorship (at the expense of virtually everyone else). However, the military industrial complex in question is really what's propping up the US economy and maintaining dominance of the USD. Otherwise, the economy would probably collapse because the USD would become worthless and we'd never be able to provide a functional healthcare system therein anyway. We kinda have made a deal with the devil, so to speak, in that. The USD's global value is upheld through our military. @vriska @raccoon

And I can see the psychiatrist on every working day if I want to without needing to schedule anything
@adiz@mtl.jinxian.casa @vriska@lizards.live @raccoon@hollow.raccoon.quest
Hmm yeah you are probably right. Although it's the US' own fault they got themselves between an anvil and a hammer in this situation.
@vriska@lizards.live @raccoon@hollow.raccoon.quest @adiz@mtl.jinxian.casa
I mean on the individual level not much but if the workers banded together in a general strike they could grind the economy to a halt and cause the collapse of the govt and corporations
@dushman Even if you believe in democracy (retarded and gay, only for fags) there's no such thing as democratic change in the United States. The average US citizen is a certified moron troglodyte, though. So, yes, we do basically allow this to continue ad infinitum by being dumb little spineless consumer cattle. However, I also want to say, like, bruh, I was just born here. I'm trying to get out. This shit ain't my fault, homie. And, on behalf of the country, I apologize for all of us. @vriska @raccoon
@dushman
>could grind the economy to a halt and cause the collapse of the govt and corporations
Yeah, but, nobody wants to be homeless or not have food on the table or die from easily curable diseases and shit, either. We live in a society, for better or for worse, and we need the gears of that society to continue functioning for life to continue happening. A collapse of the government and the corporations/economy, evil as these things may be, would also fuck us, the workers and the people. We're still stuck on this boat, hombre. There's no life-rafts for us. If we sink this dreadnought we're going down to the bottom along with it.

A general strike would probably be the best way to kill this viper so to speak. I doubt the military would be too keen on mowing down their own people and some would probably join in. Esp if the striking workers don't attack them. Although forging a new society from the ashes of the old would not be so easy I admit.
@adiz@mtl.jinxian.casa @vriska@lizards.live @raccoon@hollow.raccoon.quest
Yeah that is totally understandable

I like Alpine a lot but I don't press people to use it. Great OS for a lot of use cases imo, but definitely not for everyone.
@dushman @adiz@mtl.jinxian.casa @vriska@lizards.live
This derailed bad.
You guys, when someone is in a bad mood like this telling them how much better you have it does the opposite of helping.
@vriska@lizards.live @dushman@hollow.raccoon.quest @adiz@mtl.jinxian.casa
I'm sorry it derailed like that Vris :( I wanted to send some positivity your way but before I checked again things already went to shit

Yes, Dush. I was just saying that, which is why she said the post you replied to, you goof.

>prostitution [……] a person resorts to due to a lack of alternatives, and it tends to be extremely unhealthy for them. If they genuinely had a choice, they would generally not choose it.
This is just not true, though. It's a feminist myth that women aren't how women be. @raccoon @vriska @admitsWrongIfProven @Ree

@taylan
It is strange that you still talk to me, long after i have given up on you and made my intentions clear.
You have picked and selected what you respond to, and i deflected that at every turn.
Yet you try to motivate your claim to power, long after i made clear i have no interest.
I can deny, i can ridicule you, yet you come. What is your purpose? What do you hope to achieve?
To the question of what you should apologize for: You barged in on a conversation and were rude. Apologize to a gentle mind that you assaulted.

"Bro you are *way* too normal or sensible for fedi, let alone dark fedi. What wrong turn did you take."
I will not block you. Not because i want you to suffer, but because i will take the free boon of seeing you dismantle yourself. Your choice. You know, that thing you deny women.

@taylan
Dude, you are not welcome. What can anyone say but blocking you? Do you have any ability to understand others? Do you even understand there are other people?
How many people are there? More than one?
Sorry to all others, i have taken the stage unprompted, but i was a bit miffed there. Sorry.
@taylan @raccoon @adiz @admitsWrongIfProven @Ree block me yourself you nonce
@taylan @raccoon @adiz @admitsWrongIfProven @Ree unlike some people I've never told adult women i wish they were 14
