    ​Nah. It’s not thrown off at all. Measure of output is, measure of output. Output of “what”, relies on consensus of necessity or interest from the population for what the goal is.
    And this will always be the case.
    One interest, is food production. If one person busts their ass and sows more seed or harvests more crops than another, they are outputting more. It’s simple
    And this would be true for any other system whether it be a system of necessity or recreation or art, as long as it’s in the consensus of being a goal to achieve.
    There is no world where everyone gets EXACTLY the same benefits, that’s just an ideological extreme. It goes against natural law. It de-incentivizes any extra effort or discovery.
    Plus, it’s just fucking boring.
    Drawing down disparity is the actual goal. Sure CEOs should not make [insert your multiple here] more money/credit/possibility than the worker.
    People round here seem to immediately dismiss the CEO. But the (some) CEO may actually have worked harder, been blessed with more intelligence and organizational skills, and contributed more to, say, maximizing food production so that ALL can be fed more for even less effort.
    That should be rewarded in society.
    Just not to the ridiculously disproportionate extent it is now.

    Centrist hate is the funniest thing a bunch of fuckwits ever came up with.
    Centrist haters have the same “propagandabilty” as maga, but do it to themselves, no outside source required.
    “… Those people are centrist, must mean they don’t have an opinion…”
    Lol.
    No mental gymnastics required because they couldn’t do mental summersault.

    I believe there is some Iranian state media pictures of the aftermath where the exif data date said 2020 for one picture, a close up I believe, and then a wider shot the exif date is 2026, though it doesn’t appear that the pictures are shot with different cameras where one of them may have an incorrect date. It looks like the same photo just cropped.

    Anyway I’m not trying to diminish Iranians. Any loss of life is terrible and the aggressors are terrible. I’m just saying it’s hard to know of the exact truth of these situations.

    I saw a reel with a comedian who said something to the effect of, "hey did you ever noticed that Wars are just conservatives of a certain country attacking conservatives of another country? It’s like they hold a mirror up and see their reflection and get pissed about it. "

    Lol. It’s not a, “wild ass take”, as you so eloquently vomited.
    It’s more like a pragmatic ass take.
    Not sure what you mean about showing these children respect, because that’s not how respect works, and certainly you’re not the one who decides how respect is doled.
    If you mean to say do I care about children, the answer is absolutely and of course, and the guy who pressed the button to launch any weapon to kill innocent children on purpose should have his knob guillotined off.
    But that’s not my point. I’m talking about propaganda.


  • I made a separate account on Instagram reels and followed only Donald Trump to see what the feed would look like (So you could argue, fake account). I’m older-ish maybe compared to many on here.
    The bots and the wannabe-cool-kids and the shills and the paid actors in the comments sections of those posts, praising DJT as Jesus, etc.
    And otherwise just vitriol and bile and bullshit towards “liberals”, calling them a “disease”, claiming they have the hardest job in life which is to “not raise [my] child to be liberal”, etc…
    Y’all are fucking fucked. I’m not scared of any person, and that scares me.
    Sorry but I hink this might take more than complaining about inequality.
    Y’all better hit the chin-up bar, plus extra.
