You can fuckm all by not buying anything they sell except what is necessary.
You can steal most of that.
Denying oneself even basic pleasures in some naive attempt to stick it to the man kind of falls flat on its fucking face when you realize that literally nothing you do as an individual will even be noticed by these behemoth conglomerates.
Boycotts don't do shit anymore. Look how long people have been pushing to boycott Nestle. Do you think Nestle cares? Do you think they even fucking notice? No, because the public doesn't really give a shit about unethical business practices.
So, while wallowing in a horrible pit of depression, you have to ask yourself: would you rather an extremely fleeting feeling of self-satisfaction by not buying a candy bar (a feeling that turns to ash the moment you examine your actual impact in the world), or would you rather just have the fucking candy bar?
More power to you if undeserved self-superiority is enough of a motivation to get you through the days. For me, it's an insult to myself.
This type of fatalism is part of the reason things are going to shit right now in the first place. Do you think Nestle has some magical power that makes them immune to boycotts? No. It's the majority people throwing their hands up and going "what I do doesn't matter anyway" that lets them get away with their bullshit.
Of course one person's small actions won't immediately change the world, but if everyone makes those little changes, big things do change.
Gotta kill the billionaires to change anything big though.
Also if individuals don’t make the leap of faith to pitch in on problems that are individually intractable we are completely fucked. It’s our only route. We created these problems through collective action and collective action is what it will take to stop this ball from rolling straight off the cliff.
That's a really long winged way to say, "I choose to be part of the problem."
And that's a really short way to say "I am completely ignorant to the scope of the problem, to the point where I can't even define what the problem is."
I agree with a lot of what you say here. But also, you can just not buy the candy bar because candy makes you fat, and then think "fuck you, Nestle". Win-win!
Dont be ascetic. Dont get caught in the bullshit capitalist trap.
The stolen candy bar tastes way better.
They have been trying to do that shit since the dawn of their existence.
Why are we sharing ads here?
I mean, it's so dystopian that it loops around to being funny.
If this is real, which I assume it isn’t, it feels like someone who works there was tasked with writing something and went “you know what, fuck it. I have a masters in art, this marketing is bullshit.” And just wrote from what they knew.
If there's backlash, the corporate worker could simply blame an AI LLM. "Boss, you told us to use AI more, so I did. This is what it created, so I posted it. Should I stop using AI now?"
"Here. Take a cookie. I promise, by the time you're done eating it, you'll feel right as rain."
also
"No, seriously, accept cookies or it won't work."
That scene was, arguably, one of the most beautiful pieces of art I've seen in theater. I've always assumed that the cookie was a tracking cookie, and that that's how she was always able to find him and be able to understand everything he's been through the moment she saw him the next times. Of course, you would only get that if you understood the wordplay in the first place.
You're also overweight and at risk of diabetes, but sure eat some more candybars, that will help!
And introducing the snickers credit card...
maybe you just need a Snickers.
Yeah, maybe. But I can't fucking afford it!
How much can a Snickers cost, ten dollars?
Well it sure is getting there...
The new "just don't worry about it"
No everyone is just unhappy because of smartphones!
I really dislike this framing of college being for a job. It's not some transaction, like: "I did school give me my job now". It's an education. University: universal education. You don't even get into a specific education until grad school.
A major is just a focus point for your universal education. Don't major in what you want to do. How on earth do you even expect to know what you want to do when you choose? Major in what you want to learn.
And anyone who thinks thier education doesn't contribute to their career fundamentally misunderstands the meaning of education.
Furthermore, an education is no guarantee of a job, or career. It's only an education, there are many other factors.
Somehow I'm getting the impression you don't understand the problem here.
People need jobs, prevailing wisdom told them to go to college so they would become hireable. It turns out a college degree doesn't make you hireable.
They are right to feel betrayed about the debt they took on to the benefit of landlords and banks, at the urging of pretty much every adult in the country, and to the end result of ever expanding debt all from a time in their life where they could not have borrowed a similar amount of money to start a business or purchase a home.
They were used. They were tricked. They are being taking advantage of and we all are going to suffer mightily because of what that leveraged wealth is able to do in terms of political and financial power.
The kids who took on this debt are not your enemy. I think it was pretty clear to some of us growing up at the turn of the millennium that this is where it was all going, but it's hard for me to condescend to the kids who believed their parents.
I'm just really lucky that I had experience working with computers and was able to get a job that has nothing to do with anything I learned in school at any point along the way.
What did I say that made you think I don't understand or see any as an enemy? I'm one of those kids. The core issue it a fundamental misunderstanding of what a university education is.
I don't think it's reasonable to expect anyone to see university as anything other than a monetary investment under capitalism. University education for the sake of it is a luxury.
Sure, paid for out of pocket education can be seen as that, I agree. Buts it's still an education nonetheless.
Vocational schools, apprenticeships, and universities used to be seperate things.
Sweet death by sugar overdose. I am in.
