All well and good until mom's retirement accounts tank and you can no longer live in her basement.

[–] msage@programming.dev 4 points 3 hours ago

A lot of different comments, and I know this is a greentext, but I wonder what people here think about americans who have 3 jobs and can only barely pull through?

Such people have nothing more to lose, everybody constantly keeps forgetting about them, the homeless, sick people... the list goes on.

And I'm not saying acceleration is good, but for the lost people, nothing good is coming from any side. And the pressure keeps getting worse. Even from the democrats.

So what is the solution, achievable as the world is now?

[–] Aussiemandeus@aussie.zone 1 points 2 hours ago

The best thing to come of all of this would be bookers suffer too.

Fuck you and your house and car and planed retirment

The opposite of pro life is mandatory abortion for all.

[–] sugar_in_your_tea@sh.itjust.works 2 points 4 hours ago* (last edited 4 hours ago) (1 children)

Wouldn't it require going to full term, and then aborting post delivery?

Or maybe it's forced sterilization for all?

[–] taladar@sh.itjust.works 1 points 1 hour ago

aborting post delivery?

Up to 120 years post delivery?

The problem with NEET-ism is you eventually run out of your parent's money.

[–] crony@lemmy.cronyakatsuki.xyz 31 points 1 day ago (4 children)

That's where the goverment suppoorted neet's come into the picture.

I know some neet's who get more money from goverment than some people working 60 hour jobs.

[–] loaExMachina@sh.itjust.works 39 points 1 day ago (1 children)

I don't feel like someone relying on government helps would think some corporate fascist who generally wants to reduce government spendings represents their interest, but then again I don't think there is a logical framework in which we won't conclude that OP is at least a little bit dumb. But what makes me favour the parents supported hypothesis is the "never paid for anything " part.

[–] theangryseal@lemmy.world 18 points 19 hours ago

I am from a very poor place in WV where most people are on assistance because there are no jobs.

Trump flags everywhere. Cars driving down the road with no tags or insurance, but Trump stickers all over.

I don’t get it. Well, actually I do.

Religion. The preacher says the gay is bad. Preacher says the trans is bad. Democrats want to extend basic rights to those people and preacher says god don’t like that.

"Fuck you, I never had mine" is definitely one of the positions one could take.

[–] Milk_Sheikh@lemm.ee 8 points 15 hours ago

Except we still live in ‘free’ market vibes based capitalism - where the profits are privatized, and the losses get socialized. If this tariff stupidity goes on, there will be some kind of bailout/grift like there always is. From PPP loans, sweetheart tax breaks, to liquidity bailouts for banks, the Fed will step in and Congress will have to do something to restore market and consumer confidence. Or else we all facetank turbo inflation, job losses, and stagnant wages in a new economic depression.

If these NEETs were old enough to have been alive during the 2008 crash, they spent it playing Modern Warfare 2 and wondering why everyone else had big sad - after all, they still had vidya, porn, and tendies living at home.

Ah.. It's fair? If wealth isn't distributed well, blaming radical ideas will only fuel the fire. Solution is a much deeper one no one wants to invest into.

[–] Franklin@lemmy.ca 27 points 21 hours ago* (last edited 21 hours ago) (1 children)

I can call it a really stupid take while also acknowledging we need deep systemic change.

[–] And009@lemmynsfw.com 7 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

I meant it's fair from a common man perspective where the laws might protect you from corporate greed

[–] danc4498@lemmy.world 14 points 20 hours ago (1 children)

Burn the world down and build it back fresh and new. It’s a great strategy when you don’t ask who is building it back and what are their goals? Nobody should ever trust Trump or any other billionaire to be that person.

[–] And009@lemmynsfw.com 3 points 17 hours ago

Yes, the right idea with worst case motive

How did they never pay for anything? Shoplifting? Are they literally a statue of a Confederate general?

The secret ingredient... is crime

[–] tflyghtz@lemm.ee 62 points 21 hours ago (2 children)

Loans

Anon has never had a job, and banks need income to give you a loan.

Welfare hardly finances existance, let alone life. The three I named are more like it

[–] Jhex@lemmy.world 6 points 18 hours ago

Why not a bit of all?

Good boy points are not subject to tarrifs

They seem oddly confident in the police state and cultural sharia they voted for will never come for them.

[–] kaaskop@feddit.nl 39 points 1 day ago (1 children)

Or they don't care. Don't underestimate how self destructive depression can be.

[–] uienia@lemmy.world 21 points 22 hours ago (1 children)

Don't blame this on depression. Most depressed people doesn't become fascists. If anything this is their narcissism showing itself.

[–] kaaskop@feddit.nl 11 points 22 hours ago

I dont think al of the people that voted for the annoying orange agree with the fascistic tendencies. It's probably an unhealthy mix of suicidals and depressed people, angry people, fascists, idiots and morons. Neither of these are mutually exclusive of course.

There really are an unfortunate number of people who want to see the world burn in some fashion. Entertainment, because they can’t stand not poking a bear with a stick, or maybe because they’re a crab in a bucket and are willing to destroy others’ success because they have none of their own.

[–] atro_city@fedia.io 31 points 1 day ago (1 children)

The most dangerous people are those with nothing to lose.

The least dangerous people are those with nothing to gain.

[–] Ilovethebomb@lemm.ee 15 points 23 hours ago

I kinda understand their point of view here actually. Wanting to drag everyone down to their level. Burn it all down.
