I think “describing it as if it were normal” only helps the people who support this arrangement because it gets normalized. That’s where the accusation of conservatism came from, that and the way they tried to shut me down with insults.

Edit: given that there are likely to be a lot of people that agree with this argument unironically, doesn’t it seem irresponsible to play some game where you pretend like you support it? Without ever coming out against it at the end?

Really, it’s just naked approval, with any disapproval left as an exercise to be performed by the reader.

Ii is the real state of the world, but I don’t see any disapproval in the text.

Who would build any sort of factory if they did not know that many people would be available to take the jobs at low-pay rates

Much of the hunger lirerarure talks about how it is important to assure that people are well fed so that they can be more productive. That is nonsense

No one works harder than hungry people.

[…]well-nourished people are far less willing to do that work

For those of us at rhe high end of the social ladder, ending hunger globally would be a disaster.

I guess the irony is lost on me. Nothing here indicates that it’s wrong or should change. Also, you’re a huge asshole.

Edit: in fact I know people (conservatives) who are totally fine with this arrangement. They are huge assholes too, huh isn’t that weird.

This is just a bad thing to say to someone. That’s all.

It’s these damn activist judges, we need to get a few.

It’s fucked that the author appears to support such an arrangement…

No, the text is pretty fucked, too

Ok, I’m in for $2 /month too, thanks for setting the standard!

C# is a great language, I don’t know much about game dev but I know unity and godot game engines have good support for c#. You can target Windows/Linux/Mac on all the common architectures. All the build tools are available on the command line if that’s your thing.

This is the right idea imo. Tax wealth, not income.

But only for them

They even know they’re being lied to, and still go along.

In 2008 Americans elected a black man president, and the Republicans lost their shit and went scorched earth.

The relatively new Nostr protocol is a very interesting decentralized option. It uses relay servers to provide a secure connection between two (or more) clients which maintain the data, nothing is “stored” on the relay.

Pack the court, be rid of the filibuster, investigate corruption…

Can we put those involved in prison?

I thought it was sarcasm

daddy Trump

How do you even stand yourself?

[their children] don’t have parents who show up and help them.

[their leadership] focuses on a political agenda more than they care about actually helping somebody’s life look better.

Every accusation is an admission…

The word they’re looking for is ‘corruption’.
