best thing on that front is same fix for most of the working classes problems…
- more pay
- shift to 6hr/4d work week
- actually invest in education most people are good, amd would probably love to spend more time with their family, but in the US especially they’re overworked and underpaid, one accident away destitution

- Comment on "Benefit of the doubt" is a very important aspect of a game's success 2 days ago:
imo, that one was popular cause it was artsy enough to hit the mainstream. the game bits of it are too easy to be engaging for “veteran” gamers.
if you don’t like the game aspect of it i would recommend just lowering difficulty to minimum or watching a letsplay, cause story is good

and Putin was an american asset, his rise to power was supported by america because he promised to hunt down any remaining communists.
capitalists aren’t bound by nationalism, it’s just another tool to maintain/build their pwn personal hordes

surely this article from a AI-pusher aligned with… checks notes …some eastern european business school with connections to MIT/Harvard, has the best interests of wikipedia/the public in mind. and isnt just using this in a thinly vieled attelpy at pushing the adoption of AIslop
- Comment on Ubisoft Fires Team Lead For Criticising Stupid Return-To-Office Mandate 5 days ago:
US corpo is just 1 vote 1 share, just right there it’s more equal representation than the US government has been for it’s entire existence.
throw in shit like recalling/installing new c-suites etc.
far more responsive/equal form of government than the clown show that is US “democracy”
- Comment on YSK that everything the New York Times about Donald Trump actually happened 5 days ago:
tbf, republicans have been completely honest about those aspects of their corruption for decades
- Comment on Ubisoft Fires Team Lead For Criticising Stupid Return-To-Office Mandate 5 days ago:
shit, the average public corporation is a more representative democracy than the US actual government is.

tbf, an america politician actually saying what the intend to do is a massive outlier
- Comment on People espousing that unions don't work should have a look at police unions. 5 days ago:
well that’s obvious to anyone whose not been indoctrinated from birth by US propaganda.
police unions though are not unions in the traditional sense, they’re closer to protection rackets.
- Comment on People espousing that unions don't work should have a look at police unions. 5 days ago:
police unions arent organized against an abusive management though they’re organized against the public they supposedly serve and protect, which they also have the monopoly of violence over.
if you really wanted to reign in police unions…just make em pay all their abuse of force lawsuits out of their pensions. they’d create a national database tracking/banning cereal shitbags real quick
- Comment on People espousing that unions don't work should have a look at police unions. 5 days ago:
one of the biggest tools used in america to break unions is creating a 2-tier workforce (incentivizes one group deciding to work less-hard, which builds resentment) and by purposefully lowering hiring standards. lotta unions in the US really are complacent, seemingly having forgotten that these same capitalists they regularly fail to bargain with have literally attempted to murder them multiple times within living memory.
when all you know is the farm…you don’t realize just how much better it could be, i guess.
- Comment on Some people think because human history exists on a macro level they play some part in shaping it because they made a meme once. 5 days ago:
people regularly obsess about that 1 little thing they did/didn’t do years ago and how it dramatically changed their life for the worse, whilst also fantasizing about how they could dramatically change the oresent by making onw change in the past, at the same time as convincing themselves they’re incapable of changing the future.
humans are silly creatures

because once you’ve reached end-state capitalism, the only realistic way to make sure line continues to go up is either ratfucking public funds or to trigger a crash/credit crunch and by up discounted distressed assets
- Comment on Nvidia CEO pushes back against report that his company's $100B OpenAI investment has stalled 6 days ago:
eh, from a pragmatic business perspective…i see why they all bend the knee. capitalists are by their nature universal opportunists. they will show loyalty to israel up until the moment it looks like they don’t have control over the US’s collar, the moment that happens though they do a 180.
same way so many “pro-lgbtq” businesses flipped to anti-dei narrative the second it looked more profitable.the only thing sacred under capitalism is your line going up, everything that doesn’t directly service that goal day-to-day is performative

eh, they’ve sold most of their shovels on credit (which entirety of as income beforehand, as one does)…the AIslop companies can’t turn a profit then all that revenue goes poof

there any guides you’d recommend for setting up and starting your own jellyfin server (as well tips for combing/curating new stuff for your library, ideally). am tech literate enough to follow guides but not enough to figure out automation process entirely myself

lol, next you’ll wonder if India is better off today for having overthrown the brits, too.
fucking yes, they were a bunch of sadistic fucks destroying everything they could in the name of profit.
the worst descendants of those sick fucks got shunned to america, for being too fucking crazy. they eventually schismed into what is now known as american protestants/various other brands of fundamentalist christians
