Remember everyone, CEOs do this stuff at the behest of capital. The shareholders want you to be annoyed at the CEO whos simply acting on their orders. Its part of the reason they pay CEOs so much.

They want us to be annoyed at everyone but the shareholders. Capital has always been the problem.

No one controls that kind of right winger quite like the oil and meat lobbies.

I think you’re right. Sadly, none of them have any idea how ultra manipulated the price of things like gold and silver are.

I mean, it has appreciated in value since then but if you caught it wrong, with a load of futures, expecting it to “shoot to the moon”, you’ll lose everything which was the plan. It was literally firms and funds trying to cover the losses they made on gamestop.

“I put it to you, your honour, that that child is sexy.”

For me, it became undeniable after the gamestop fiasco. I used to sub to wallstreetbets way back before all that. It was one of the last genuinely funny places on the internet. I’m lucky, i got in on those shares at £45 and sold at roughly somewhere round about £420.69.

After the day the price shot up to that, the place was just flooded with bots trying to get anyone to spend their money in any place but gamestop. You even had some mugs trying to short silver which, for anyone not in the know, you’d need about all the money in the world to do that.

But yeah, now, everything going on there is going to be ultra analysed by every fund in the world. Oh, they also fired all the admins and replaced them just before the flood gates opened.

I think its then that people saw the potential for flooding reddit with bots and shills.

Antinatalism is the first law of robotics, reduced to absurdity. It answers the question by forgetting why you asked it in the first place.

Yes, it does eliminate human suffering. However, it does so in the same way that a bullet to the head cures a headache.

Its a great iceberg but im not sure id name a town after it.

So true and none of them seem to realise that their alpha maleness look a lot like worshipping some grifting daddy-boss.

Like the rest of them, hes more than happy to tax other peoples earnings, for using his things. He loves it. In fact, its his favourite part.

So, I hope no one reading this ever confuses business owners and landbastards hatred of taxes with a moral position.

They just don’t think it should apply to them.

I think its because we’re only just now coming to terms with the fact that we’re simply a collection of desires, the culture we were born to and stories we tell ourselves. In keeping, we had to have a story to tell ourselves and free will existing is the more compelling of the two.

I don’t think there’s an evolutionary purpose. To me, we just became far more self aware than our limited knowledge of the world we find ourself in could cope with and its more of a coping mechanism than anything else.

Exactly that. Capitalism is incompatible with democracy.

Not much has changed since the enclosure and vagabond acts, back in 1600s Britain. All we’ve done since is refine and moralise the process.

Oh, they can function while paying legal workers the legal minimum wage. They just don’t want to, as they make more money doing things like the above.

It is like star trek. The problem is, we’re nothing like the federation. If anyone, were closest to the ferengi.

You alright John? You’ve hardly touched your vinegar.

Not OPs fault of course but its only “absurd” if you choose to forget that the tories are bought and paid for by the oil and gas lobbies.

I seem to remember that the common concensus is that it would be easier to create a whole universe than the individual simulation model.

Na, his policies were nothing close to definitive on any positions. Honestly, that part of the left has been fighting the far right so long that they’ve lost track of where the lines are supposed to be and just lie as policy.

As if any of us would be allowed to leave work to go watch a clown be pull upriver in a bathtub by geese.

But then, how do have the oldest, whitest person in charge?
