this right here. Its easy for people who ARE THE MAJORITY and ARE NOT THE TARGETS to say that they dont HATE YOU they WANT YOU TO JOIN they hate ME.

Iam not advocating punching Nazis

its supposed to be VR the next evolution of it you can live a virtual life and spend money in there thats what these nfts and crypto are all leading to

but truely itll fail for now theyll have to wait atleast 50years before it can be implemented the way they want. Which is people living their entire life in the metaverse and spending real money in the metaverse. They need the kids of the current ipad generation this stuff wont work on generations that grew up on The Matrix but this current group of toddlers who watch ipads and youtube all day their kids will fall for it.

TLDR: its the next evolution of social media where they will simulate a new life for you and make yu buy things that dont exist

No one gave a shit about rogan until he hosted alex jones on his show.

Part time, genius. That was the qualifier. But you knew that.

Yeah I know you reread your post and recognized your "Qualifier" was bullshit

Waaaah. Not what I said at all, but have fun whining and twisting words.

Post wasnt even directed at you big shot

PoundGarden posted...

What's your answer then? AGAIN, small businesses cannot afford to support that kind of payroll. You can complain and bemoan it all you want, that's the reality. Requiring all businesses to pay a "living wage" (which again, varies from household to household) would shut down an overwhelming majority of small businesses, it's simply not feasible or possible. How do you not get this?

If you cant afford to pay a workers a living wage YOU SHOULD BE OUT OF BUSINESS

Circular logic. And if the company had to pay middle class wages for entry level work, they would shut down.

if you cant pay your workers a living wage you should be out of business

My God lol. You just want small businesses to dissappear and be left with major retailers I guess

would that lead to people getting paid a live able wage? If so yes wtf

Fair is fair, grow up. Most places pay a wage appropriate to the level of skill involved.

Life is not fair yet somehow things always work out fairly for big businesses

I have no kids and my house and cars are paid off, so realistically $10/hr is a "living wage" for me.

If this was the case then no one would be complaining about wages dumbass people are getting 10 an hour now and struggling

Whereas someone who has a mortgage and kids obviously needs closer to $20.

No single person with no kids needs $25

Why is it the company's responsibility to pay more than what the work is actually worth

Because for decades theyve made bank off of underpaying people. This directly connects with the previous point that companies that cant afford to pay a living wage should go out of business

So basically theres selfish people who only feel validated if they know they are doing better than someone. Evil Wins.

PoundGarden posted...

Yup. You gotta read. There was a pretty important qualifier to that

Qualifier so important you cant remember it?

PoundGarden posted...

they can't afford to be paying $20/hr.
Right or wrong, that's the reality.

So again you see that its wrong but you dont support changing it?

Never said that. I'm saying it's not an employers responsibility to ensure they pay enough to support a family and that it's not as easy as saying "everyone gets a living wage!" Quantify it. As I said it's a relative term and it isn't fair or legal to pay people based on age or living situation.

should be paying a living wage because if the people they underpay quit the company is done.

Well that's comparing apples to Volvos. There's all kinds of things the gov could do to improve our lives but that's a different discussion.

They could mandate that businesses pay people a living wage.

I have nothing against the less fortunate, I've been there myself. But again, why is it fair to Target to have to pay enough to cover someone's life choices? What about Billy who can't stop raw dogging and is paying child support on 5 kids? Why is that his employers problem that 70% of his wages goes to paying for his poor life choices? And now I have to pay more for my products because Billy can't stop raw dogging?

Why are worried about bring fair to multimillion and billion dollar companies? They certainly most definitely dont care about being fair to us.

So because people have kids no one should get a living wage???? You see how this looks?

PoundGarden posted...

I just don't like the idea that people are entitled to a living wage just because they have a job.

This you?

LMFAO at your mental gymnastics and impotent little shots. All this because I think applying for jobs is a better use of time than wallowing and wishing on reddit

thats not your stance tho

your stance has been some people dont deserve a living wage thats literally evil my guy.

WingsOfGood posted...

Actually it would. Part of his job is finding ways to extract more work out of people without paying them more.

Yeaaaaaah that actually makes sense

WingsOfGood posted...

I literally called it.
Kinda weird thing to do if you are actually happy where you are. Typically if you are unhappy you paint this picture of being better than everyone else so it feels like it is worth it to continue being unhappy. "I may be unhappy but at least I am not like those lesser people!"

yeah hes painted the full picture now clearly gets his rocks off feeling above people

Gobstoppers12 posted...

Also, one can support those things without supporting the subreddit itself. Its reputation has been torpedoed. It's basically a joke now.

Duke thats what im saying fuck the subreddit the message is correct. its not like you have to join the sub and be everyones friend

PoundGarden posted...

Idk where you're getting that from. If anything I'm thinking less of people who made poor life choices and now feel entitled to what people who applied themselves have...but they don't want to put in any effort to make that happen.

Yeah I'm a real monster lol

your attitude about the less fortunate is awful. Just because you where fortunate doesnt mean everyone has the same chance. Less work and UBI would change the game for some people and it wouldnt effect you in anyway. your opposition stance is built on I did it why cant you?

Gobstoppers12 posted...

Because supporting the original message is not the same as supporting the subreddit as it is now. It's like the dilemma with BLM, where the core original message was great and universal, but the movement itself quickly became corrupted by a handful of extremists, clout chasers, and con artists.

man its crazy how people would hinder progress just to spite others

so you agree with it but you dont like the reddit posters

yall act like you have to be the reddit posters best friend and they get to move into your house or something.

literally workers rights & UBI thats it

PoundGarden you really should experience life beyond your the blinders you have on, you seems extremely sheltered my dude.

It seems like he wants to feel higher than people who work lesser jobs than him. Lowkey evil mindset

Gobstoppers12 posted...

If they stood for "better wages and all that," then they'd have some support from me.

better wages and UBI should be something we can all get behind. Even if you dont like the people on the subreddit why does that cloud the message

PoundGarden posted...

Didn't say that. Let's be real though: "living wage" is a relative term. At what point is it too much? Meaning someone with 5 kids and no education, by and far those are choices they made so why is it someone else's responsibility to ensure they can pay their bills? Why does McDonald's need to pay $20-$30/hr to support that person? Now they have to be fair, so everyone needs to make that right?

If a company cannot afford to pay workers a living wage it should be shutdown tbh.

A "living wage" can vary greatly, are we talking an 18 yr old or a mom/dad with 4+ kids? And we can't pay people more based on their age or situation, that's not fair

Its like you see where and why things need to change but you want to punish poor people.

Some how around tax time the gov is able to distribute tax returns evenly to people who have kids yet somehow jobs cant? come on man you seem to have something against the less fortunate but this country was built on taking advantage of the less fortunate.

Where do you get a mortgage for $600?

Even a nice home mortgage is $2000 at least

lol yeah this tripped me out because if you rent an apartment in Atlanta for $600 you better have a fucking bullet proof vest, an AK and a sidearm

I loved Sonic Adventure 1 sooooo much omg

its so much better than Mario 64

I spent hours drawing the characters in the instruction manual

even more hours playing the game to me

Sonic Adventure 1
GTA3
Tekken Tag Tournament
Metal Gear Solid 2
Halo 2

where the games that really defined what next gen gaming meant. I felt like I was witnessing art playing these games especially Sonic Adventure

PoundGarden posted...

Very few people work multiple jobs. Most people who work more than one job are low skilled or lack education (and tend to have kids) so they work 2 service jobs. Idk where this notion that most people work 2-3 jobs came from or that the poor/uneducated

So you dont think a poor uneducated person should have a living wage unless they work themselves silly? Again why cant everyone just have a living wage why does it effect you?

And I do agree that essential jobs should pay well. I just don't consider fast food and dog walking to be essential

Fast food establishments are on every corner of every street why cant those people get a living wage?

PoundGarden posted...

Because some jobs are not meant to support someone. You really think someone should have a living wage working 25 hours a week doing barely entry level work? I don't think it's unfair to pay someone based on the difficulty, skills required, or danger involved with the job. If everyone can be comfy doing the bare minimum, why wouldn't they? Let's he honest, we Americans are the laziest most entitled people on the planet. I don't think lowering the bar is the solution.

I dont understand your gripe here does knowing someone has an easy job and is making a living wage effect you? If you arent lazy why does it matter if others are?

But, if there was UBI then fuck it, work whatever makes you happy. I just don't like the idea that people are entitled to a living wage just because they have a job.

See i find this awful because people dont work as hard as you they deserve to have a shitty life i cant get down with that.

I know dudes who couldnt make it in school couldnt hack it at a job and had to hit the streets with that butter. Now theyre dead or prison. A UBI would have changed their lives. I cant co sign what your saying here: lets give everyone a livable wage

UBI and less working hours would make the world so much better

PoundGarden posted...

I can get behind that. UBI is goung to be a necessity shortly here due to many jobs disappearing.

im glad we can agree there

I can't get behind someone seriously thinking they deserve a living wage doing part time high schooler work and I never will. And that they should have to take zero initiative to improve their lives.

My question here is why cant everyone have a living wage? Why do people need to crush themselves working this idea has been beaten into the masses

What_ posted...

A lot of corporate Simps in this topic

antiwork ideals invalidate their hard work in their eyes only corporate simps should be happy

@PoundGarden

how do you feel about UBI?

PoundGarden posted...

If thats your take, that's your problem. You can stop playing the victim and projecting, my life is fine, thanks. Your real stake is ou just want to whine and blame everyone else for your own shortcomings. How's that working out?

you guys are slinging mud but I think we can all agree that working less would be better than the current situation and a UBI would actually revolutionary.

Would you really be mad at poor people getting an extra rack if you got one too?

Prismsblade posted...

But expecting businesses or society as a whole to conform so they can have it easier is pretty unreasonable how I see it.

Well yeah they wont do it by themselves THATS THE WHOLE POINT
people are pointing out that these companies intentionally take advantage of workers.

Its engrained in peoples minds that you have to let corporate america work you to death antiwork is trying to change that.

Its very obvious that fox news wanted to squash it before it left the ground.

People in the modern time shouldnt have to work this much. I feel like you agree with what im saying but you have too much respect for corporations and business owners to demand it.

Prismsblade posted...

I think alot of it stems from entitlement. Many of them are youths with little education, experience, skills, work ethic or..... anything for that matter.

But still feel owed a easy job with full benefits, low work hours, they're state and city of choosing, and high pay.

What if people dont want to acrue huge college debts or work 3 jobs to live a comfortable life?

What if people are realizing that shouldnt be the only options?

As I said I think older people dont like the movement because they fell in line and did all that work and if an easier way comes out it would invalidate the previous work theyve done.

Edit: antiwork intimidates loyal workers because it goes against their whole life

Solid Sonic posted...

What I find irritating about anti-work is it feels...smug. Like they have something figured out that all the "worker bees" refuse to see or accept. Then they get irate when people point out gaps in their plan and say they just haven't figured out how to get around that or whatever.

See i have a theory that there are people who dont want to see workers rights increase, UBI etc because to them it would invalidate the work theyve done. Basically its an ego thing.

I honestly believe that there are people who get joy from knowing there are people struggling and they themselves are not. The fight against anti work comes from these ideas.

No

its about increasing workers rights

people shouldnt have to kill themselves working just to have the basics of life.

UBI is the solution but then rich people will intentionally fuck it up and raise the prices of everything

WingsOfGood posted...

I don't believe he has considered anything.

His view is basically:
"I have job. This is my identity. These people want more and better pay. If they get it, then I am not worth much and my identity is harmed. I must paint them as lazy and bad. My identity is saved."

Literally the most typical knee jerk reaction. Not to mention the idea that your job isn't your identity must really hurt his self-esteem.

Thats it right there.

turn based combat is so lame

White supremacists rely heavily on hoping things unfortunate to their image "go away" and hoping people forget about them, and then gaslighting people to question as to whether they actually happened.

Guess what. They happened.

You are definitely right about that. Its because they know civilized people wont kick their asses and instead try to work withem.
