The population always pays. Why?

Build a guillotine, leave it outside of City Hall.

See if they can find the money then.

Go to a local video game bar and play socially there.

No shit.

We've reached the stage of capitalism where the middle class is being actively devoured by corporations.

Line go up.

Yep, it's a control thing.

If you can command a population to sacrifice women to childbirth in waves, and they don't revolt, what else can you command them to do?

That is actually great. Are there more of these? I'd love to read the whole fake "feud" if it's ongoing, sounds hilarious.

This application looks fine to me.

Clearly labeled sections.

Local on one side, remote on the other

Transfer window on bottom.

No space for anything besides function, is the joke going over my head?

Wow, a result that is wrong for some reason. I don't know that reason but as soon as I turn on Fox News they will tell me what to think. Then I'm gonna be mad as shit at this!!!

Right now not sure how to feel though.

When you get caught not doing your job.

I agree with the comedy image.

The only thing worse than the squalor of addiction is the unearned confidence of people with glasses.

Yeah but how old is red face white hair man.

It would be more accurate if you said, "This is not about right and wrong (for me)."

If you say it's not about right and wrong, dead stop, then you are pledging full faith to the institutions, the very ones we are critiquing.

Basically, you are dismissing my opinion as misguided, dismissing me as missing the point and I am telling you it was expressed exactly as intended.

In short, you are arguing on the wrong conceptual meta-level for me to respond without dismissing my own claim. If I take as True that "this isn't about right and wrong" (it is), then I am setting aside the power I have in a democratic society to say, "Fuck this I'm changing it." Maybe we've just been stuck in gridlock politics, with a ruling class that strips and monetizes every aspect of humanity that the society today doesn't realize the power citizens wield.

Not sure. Been fun to think and share thoughts with you though. Thanks for your time and have a nice night.

An impasse is a perfectly acceptable outcome on a sane platform like Lemmy.
