The Quuuuuill

the goal was to enforce poverty, not to resolve it. this is the system working exactly as intended

it gets darker and more insidious than that. america’s definition of poverty is unique unto ourselves. the rest of the world views poverty as a condition in which a person is unable to do all the human things humans do. poverty wages, everywhere else, is anyone not making a living wage. but we, in our incredible exceptionalism, defined our own definition of poverty, and then refuse to acknowledge that more and more people are slipping into it.

the key to understanding why we refuse to acknowledge this is because poverty is enforced. it is always enforced. the natural order of nature is for humans to care for eachother. the greedy parasites who control us though need us to be desperate enough to keep us from realizing we provide them with comforts we do not benefit from because we’re just trying to scrape out a basic living from table scraps.

1. A state can just repeal their own minimum wage
2. The existence of states using the federal minimum wage means it matters to the people who live in those states
3. Poverty anywhere indicates the possibility of poverty everywhere. Being somewhere “without poverty” does not make you safe from poverty. It just means you are less proximate to poverty for now

and the nature of their 1000s of experiments going at the same time isn’t methodical at all. they don’t actually know what iteration of google search was the best and most useful one. there’s no going back to what worked because at no point did they ever know what worked. the modern shitty google search is the best version we will ever get to use again.

google embedded them as a core piece of information infrastructure and then demolished themselves. now our information networks fundamentally do not work anymore

time to switch to Qwant, ecosia, or duckduckgo

this is part of why it’s important for everyone to pay attention to the asymmetric warfare being conducted in Ukraine. for one, it’s a genocide, don’t look away and speak for their liberation just like i hope everyone is speaking up for all colonized peoples, like Mayans, Darfurians, Congolese, Palestinians, and Uyghers. for another the skills demostrated may become necessary in the near future

agreed. i didn’t downvote the thread starter because this is how our media always writes about prison deaths, but that’s on purpose. they shape the way we talk about these things in order to shape how we think about it. i think the thread starter is legitimately trying to disseminate exactly what happened, but the hegemonic language of the elite has infiltrated how they discuss these things through no specific fault of their own. i left a reply to the thread starter that was meant to directly critique the institutions and systems that lead to this without calling the thread starter themself the problem.

there’s a more recent and more accurate comp from germany who had a bad moustache inspired by charlie chaplan’s moustache. he, individually, is why no one wears their facial hair like that anymore

fraudulant credit card use is no reason someone should be executed

yup. and both of them would explore how deeply terrifying it was being forward scouts through their art, and particularly how being an artist made them valuable as scouts

Dr Doom is a Jack Kirby creation and I’ve been living with the realization that as a forward scout for the US Army in Nazi Germany, many of his villains are reflections of what he witnessed the Nazis to be. Whatever Dr Doom is, I’m fully ready to understand 47 to be as well

already know who i’m switching to. better coffee, less selection, doesn’t ship. but they’re also a non profit co-op and align opposite maga views

sigh… goodbye, favorite coffee

or “why aren’t you wearing a suit”

why would we make driving rules surrounding that exactly one vehicle doesn’t have speakers and some headphones have passthrough?

the nazi ones, as with always. and i’ve encountered them. they exist and they terrify me. they terrify me because they really and truly believe the lies they speak

then i’m confused because those aren’t new. those are the oldest designs on the market

semi-banned, under conditions*

it’s really not though. it’s way easier to just not put on headphones than it is to put on headphones and prove you had them in pass through sound mode

completely different scenario. real apples to cats comparison
