This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

The whole "liberal tears" stuff came from the gingers episode.

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

[–] Aussiemandeus@aussie.zone 5 points 1 month 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

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?

Such people have nothing more to lose,

This is a very big flaw in that kind of argument. It might look like that but there are plenty of worse situations human beings have been in historically. There is no war going on, food and clean water and shelter (even with heating and lighting) are actually available,...

Absolutely! That kind of thinking of "I have nothing to lose" is pretty dangerous on politics. You still have a truckload more to lose. Mostly in matter of rights mostly but imagine being in worse dystopias the oligarchy would love to put you on just to squeeze an extra penny from you or better yet read about it in history books.
The worst part is that it takes decades to fix the damage done, soon you realize there is no bottom to touch to think "you can only go up" there is only the moment you guys realize "enough is enough".

That kind if abstract thinking isn't in that person's wheelhouse. They're focused on their next meal, which bill to pay (or partially pay), and if that pain is worth the time/money lost going to urgent care. They aren't thinking about the long term effects or side effects of political arguments.

The opposite of pro life is mandatory abortion for all.

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

aborting post delivery?

Up to 120 years post delivery?

"wait, they're cancelling pre orders for the switch 2? REEEEE"

That's a "soy console", OP will wake up once his PC will cost 2-3 times as much thanks to tariffs.

Anon is an enlightened accelerationist

The prices remain the same when you steal everything

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

Good boy points are not subject to tarrifs

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 1 month ago

Why not a bit of all?
