Japan is so great that people drink themselves to death after overworking useless office jobs and have politicians who encourage their citizens to have sex to make the country great again.
Fuckass
I’m thinking of opening a second CU and put in like $50 just so I can use the coin counter once every 2 years
They mean paper cash
People who are ever only good at one subject should be legally sanctioned from publicly speaking about other subjects for at least 10 years after they begin to take interest in it
You people call for the execution of People of Real Estate, aka landl*rds
Have you considered a second job? It will drain you of your energy and happiness, but it’ll be worse if you become homeless.
See if you’re able to secure a second job that isn’t labor intensive like online customer service or maybe a late night security guard job at an empty office. Usually you get a lot of down time, so you could use that to perhaps study for a better, more permanent job.
Try to fit in enough hours to sleep, shower, eat, and maybe light exercise. I have found that the minimum hours of sleep I need to still function is 5 - this is dangerous and will kill you in the long run, but if you think it’ll keep you off the streets if you just brave it through for a few months, then it may be worth it.
If you’re spending the minimum, then a second, easier job maybe help you get out of the hole, or at least for the short term.
The difference is that the US portrays itself as the bastion of freedom, democracy, and justice. With that logic, it makes sense if Russia or Syria or whoever else bombs innocent people because they’re barbarians who don’t value democracy.
But when the bastion of democracy, freedom, and justice drone strikes an American and random bystanders; drone strikes dozens of children and community leaders; drone strikes a bunch of doctors; spies on citizens and allies; illegally occupies an island to torture Muslims for decades before releasing them; kill citizens who are caring for their communities using leftist ideology; funds cartels and death squads to massacre labor activists and leftists in exchange for letting them traffic drugs; drop more bombs than in WWII on small countries, then rape and massacre their villagers; assassinate other democratically elected leaders; and no one is ever punished significantly for it, then maybe it’s time to stop blindly worshipping it.
Whenever I talk about the US being bad, libs will pull a whataboutism for countries I don’t even live in. I get it, we can’t just ignore the atrocities and crises because we don’t live there, but there are literally crises we can address RIGHT NOW because we have nominal control in the US. If AES are so authoritarian, then what exactly do you want me to do about it? I can’t vote the leaders away, but according to liberals, I can vote in good things and vote out bad things in the US, so why the fuck aren’t you wielding that supposed power and demanding I spend all of my energy on a country you claim has no democracy whatsoever?
I like his documentaries, but I don’t really understand the “activist” ones. Like I get it. The earth is dying. But maybe I’m just too early on in the series but he doesn’t offer any solutions other than some vague “we must unite and do something about this.” Thanks, Dave. For a second I thought we didn’t have to do anything about it.
Yeah, no amount of red sails articles will change my mind. It’s the end of history, but it’s not going to be a happy, celebratory era like libs envision. Maybe you have hope, but I see my families and people barely scraping by, living in houses with primitive plumbing and succumbing to natural disasters without a hint of government intervening in what is supposed to be a communist country. Resources are scarce, I get it, and many people’s lives have been improved including my own family’s, but I see nothing improving past basic dignity and resource any time soon unless the world descends into another legitimate Cold War where stricter lines are drawn. Like I said in another comment, the world has turned to shit after 1991. It’s all about survival now
If they press the communism button now in such a hostile environment, they will lose everything.
Im aware of that, which is why I said that AES have to compromise in order to survive. Whether communists are morally reprehensible for this is not for me to decide - for many accepting the west and exploitation was the only way to not fall along the USSR. There is no unifying ideology, except hating the west, which is certainly fine, but im not expecting Saudi Arabia to become threatened by socialism any time soon, for anybody to help Cuba and the DPRK out of poverty and isolation, or even China and Vietnam mending differences. It’s the era of realpolitik.
With violence. How else do you ‘attack’ something. This is the US, I’m sure you can imagine how one would do this.
