    You are reverting to the capitalist brainwashing that has been repeated to you for your entire life.

    Nobody is arguing that a grocery stocker requires less skill and training than brain surgery. Literally nobody. And yet you people repeat this idea over and over.

    I mean this not as an attack on you but a chance to expand your worldview. Cognitive dissonance hurts, and it’s important to recognize when it’s happening so you can ask further questions.

    There is no such thing as an “unskilled worker” because all jobs require skill. It’s called human skill, and it’s what enables us to build societies greater than the sum of its citizens.

    The logical conclusion you are suggesting is that because some humans are less capable, they don’t deserve basic needs such as a home, reliable transportation, internet, food, utilities, etc.

    And if your basic premise starts with the notion that society should not be meeting the basic needs of its people, then there’s only one thing that would convince you anyway.


  • Any town in the entirety Central California, including the ones with oh so liberal colleges in them. The entire 5 cities region, and everything around that as well.

    People regularly make neck slicing motions to black folks, in broad daylight, surrounded by college kids. They hang nooses on campus for Halloween. Blackface controversies every other weekend.

    The schools in that region have the highest income inequalities in the entire nation (based on the wealth of student’s parents).

    It is a widespread and accepted practice for your parents to build you a home next to the school so you don’t have to rent.

    You don’t fuckin understand the scale of it man. These old money fucks living out in mansions in the country. 10 car garages, guest rooms that fit 5 grown men comfortably. These people don’t even flinch at spending $100k. That’s another Sunday to them.

    Just drunk driving their asses off at their cute little “fundraisers” making racist comments to each other when they see the “help” (college volunteers…).

    It makes me so angry sometimes I forget to breathe. And the fact that liberals will not give a single shit about any of it while demanding you give them your vote… wow.


  • America is kind of shit at making cars hahahah

    Deming, whose work all modern manufacturing is based on, was literally laughed out of American industry for his ideas.

    He took them to Japan and partnered with a little known company called Toyota.

    American companies then begged to learn this magic after Detroit turned into a rust belt. They still make shit cars today 😂
