I'm not saying citizens should take on ANY hardship.

I'm saying you can't throw people onto the street AND prevent them from working.

Let them work then!!!

Space is *not* limited, have you seen the US??

Your fellow humans are NOT the enemy. The people restricting resources to the people are the enemy.

And one more question.

If economics is not about increasing the well-being of humans, what is economics about then???

@yogthos Some people have compared society to an organism, so if we follow that analogy to it's conclusion, I think the phenomenon you bring up can be compared to Psychological Projection. We can go even further and say that if our society is like an organism, then perhaps it has a cognitive impairment.

Funny how everything people fear happening under communism comes to pass under capitalism in one way or another. Turns out that it is the capitalists who aim to strip people of their personal property by transforming everything into a rental.

You no longer own your media, books, computer, phone, or any other device; they’ve all been transformed into subscriptions. The moment you cease paying or the company decides to discontinue its services, you find yourself in an unfortunate predicament.

Via Rupar:

#Biden mocks #Trump: "He wants to see the stock market crash. You know why? He doesn't want to be the next Herbert Hoover. As I told him, he's already Hoover. He's the only president to be president for four years and lose jobs, not gain any jobs. C'mon man."

Ebay has just as much stuff as Amazon, but Republicans want you to use Amazon instead because they love billionaires and they hate the United States Post Office.

Earth to journalists who are still "both sidesing:" this is only the beginning of what ya boy #Trump will do to you if you continue to avoid confronting the reality of his #fascism. Even if he can't pull a cable network's imaginary FCC license, there's plenty else he can and will do to weaponize government.

Good for the networks who refused to air his lie-ridden speech.

"Trump Insists NBC and CNN Should Have Their Licenses ‘Pulled’ for Not Showing His Victory Speech"

I've got about 100 USB 2 USBs that have fake-ass blue plastic pretending to be USB 3 on them, all brand-new (and their capacities are legit, I've tested some) but unsaleable because they're fake as fuck.
Any activist/whistle blowing/etc groups here in need of some very disposable USB sticks? You can have some for the price of postage

Woah stark insight from @pluralistic in my morning reading: Con/MLM susceptibility is often about DESPERATION rather than dishonesty

It's only a murder of crows if there's probable caws

I'm looking for a lady archaeologist because I heard they will date any old thing.

There’s a decent chance the ‘person’ you’re arguing with is from a Russian bot farm. They are also the ones claiming ‘both parties are the same’ to try and discourage Democrats from voting

@thomasfuchs You are absolutely correct that logic does not work, but there are things that will work under certain conditions. David McRaney wrote a book called "How Minds Change" that goes through some of the more effectiuve ways to help people come to better conclusions. Here is an interview that gives a brief outline of the book. -youarenotsosmart.com/2023/09/1

@thomasfuchs That is certainly one tool you should have in your tool-box, but not every job needs a hammer.

@dalias @BlackAzizAnansi To take seriously any threat of WWIII, one must understand matters of the world; that America is not the center of the universe, and that Putin is not our friend. That the US military presents zero real threat to the nations with nuclear weapons. That Ukraine is a keystone to blocking Putin, not just some other country we want to do good deeds for.

Donald Trump spoke at Liberty University,
founded by a segregationist ,
who defended apartheid,
on #MLKday.

And Irony hanged itself.
