Ivy leagues are about the connections and prestige you gain from them, not personal growth or improvement

Silksong was the real best indie game, but Team Cherry is at the point where they don't really need awards. Everyone that knows, knows.

“America is the wealthiest nation on Earth, but its people are mainly poor, and poor Americans are urged to hate themselves. To quote the American humorist Kin Hubbard, 'It ain’t no disgrace to be poor, but it might as well be.' It is in fact a crime for an American to be poor, even though America is a nation of poor. Every other nation has folk traditions of men who were poor but extremely wise and virtuous, and therefore more estimable than anyone with power and gold. No such tales are told by the American poor. They mock themselves and glorify their betters. The meanest eating or drinking establishment, owned by a man who is himself poor, is very likely to have a sign on its wall asking this cruel question: 'if you’re so smart, why ain’t you rich?' There will also be an American flag no larger than a child’s hand – glued to a lollipop stick and flying from the cash register.

Americans, like human beings everywhere, believe many things that are obviously untrue. Their most destructive untruth is that it is very easy for any American to make money. They will not acknowledge how in fact hard money is to come by, and, therefore, those who have no money blame and blame and blame themselves. This inward blame has been a treasure for the rich and powerful, who have had to do less for their poor, publicly and privately, than any other ruling class since, say Napoleonic times. Many novelties have come from America. The most startling of these, a thing without precedent, is a mass of undignified poor. They do not love one another because they do not love themselves.”

Just came across this section while reading Slaughterhouse Five (fantastic book) and it really hit home

fair enough, 1% is hyperbolic

Cool dude. Way to not get what I was saying at all.

I'm also sure how all shopping carts left in parking spaces are done by people who were fighting pain every step of the way and was crushed with guilt over not being able to make it back to the return. How dare I make assumptions about people's situations whom I know nothing about.

Itsaghast

Just responding to the whole "invisible disabilities" rubbish, which might be at play maybe 1% of the time. It's just lazy, selfish pricks.

Itsaghast

"Did you know that the US government is actually illegitimate and you are allowed to travel in an automobile without a license or registration?"

Itsaghast

Betting is probably the most legal but exploitative business there is

That would be social media and the data industry (SM is just the public facing front of the data industry)

Itsaghast
