No clue where you’re living but this sounds a lot like the reality of ordering online in rural Ohio these days. The best anti-capitalism propaganda out there is how bad the buying experience is these days. Especially if you are trying to specifically buy something slightly obscure or often copied? I find I have to try to buy something 3, 4 times before I get it right. At least it has ended shopping for fun in my life I guess.
My friends from Iran fled after fighting cops in the streets so maybe you just know too many rich people.
I’m not Ukranian, I can’t benefit from that. HBU?
You are right about jail being likely to lead to a shallow grave but would you share more about what you think Asylum is like? I have lots of 1st hand experience around jails but none around asylum, I just know asylum seekers who have compared it to jail.
Don’t BS people with this. Asylum sucks like jail and countries within reach aren’t going to offer it.
The actual “only options” involve large amounts of money and/ or abandoning your social standing. These are more realistic than asylum.
So, I spent the entirety of the Biden Administration saving, planning and then executing an emigration plan. It didn’t work because immigration laws change constantly in Canada because racists want to frustrate our freedoms, just like they do at the American southern border. Internationally we live under feudalism. I wasted 4 years and thousands of dollars learning this. If you are lower, working, or middle class, you will not be able to emigrate to another country unless you are willing to do so extra-legally.
We like this Pepe
I like OP’s opinions because we’re roughly aligned toward the same political ideals but he’s just a touch more invested and less cynical.
you, the paying customer
In disciplines like software engineering, constantly improving oneself and being in a state of continuous learning is an inevitable process. Even if you don’t put in extra effort and just try to do your job, you have to learn a new concept or technology. If you do put in the extra effort, you become someone who does their job better. Since graduating from undergraduate studies (which marks exactly one year as I write this post), putting in extra effort has been my top priority. Working more, reading more, knowing more.
This guy sounds miserable. Devoting yourself to corpo garbage “work ethic” like that isn’t the answer to hyperconsumption.

cool propaganda article
OP lucky8 is a bot who only posts anti-china propaganda
You guys can stop gaslighting now, the election is over.
the problem on lemmy world and sh it just works is that if you block the toxic users, there aren’t any posts
also i don’t think there should be any internet for rightwing pepes
I appreciate that Pete has a contingency plan (I am known to switch over to colonial warfare rations when pressed for cash myself).
However let’s also not pretend like reporters get paid enough by corpo employers so to me, Pete, passing you a fistful of ones on kofi is more akin to supporting FOSS or artists than any sort of “charity” or even mutual aid.
Hey Pete, you have to hang in there, champion. You are literally a fact based local reporter in what is about to be confusing and bad times, my dude. You’re Peter Parker, basically, except you are doing it analog. Do you have a kofi account or something?
So the student population around Stanford are gaming the study fee economy with Poe dot com eh? That’s pretty funny.
if this wasn’t copypasta, it is now
(edit: intended as a compliment)
that’s the spirit! I will join you.
that’s a relief, i kinda get that attitude though
i have some desire to show people the “nice” parts of places I grew up even though I grew up in the rustbelt by a prominent police-involved child murder site
