Also does anyone have a way to turn threads into something I can download, so they don't get deleted?

Isnt this just buying off the working class so capitalists and their politicians can do whatever they want? Even in global south, isnt this what reactionary dictstorships do with oil profits, just more humane?

No. It's the opposite. It's buying off the bosses.

It's making the taxpayer support employed people so their boss doesn't have to, instead of using welfare to support only unemployed people.
