Oof, Billionaire dust, don't breath this.

I accept, but I refuse to be happy about it.

I will speak of the dead how they were, not how I wish they were.

It devalues people that lived empathetic, caring lives, it devalues the lives of people who struggled their entire life but never used that as an excuse to exploit others to play pretend some greedy/malicious/antisocial garbage human was a "great guy."

Don't speak ill of the dead? It's nonsensical. There is no God, but judgment still should come for a person, by the people whose lives they touched for better or worse, and it helps no one to pretend everyone who died was awesome.

Maybe if the world called a notorious POS a notorious POS when they died and tossed their corpse into a dumpster, it would, I don't know, show the living that how they live will decide how and if they're remembered.

I will switch if something better comes along that is decentralized.

The profit motive poisons everything and turns it to shit. I won't join a social again if it can be purchased to turn me into another metric on a spreadsheet for someone to sell.

Someone born to wealth can fuck around for years as a junkie, get sent to a luxury rehab with programs like equestrian therapy that is basically a stay at a luxury spa, and then waltz into a boardroom, bark orders, and collect millions of dollars they will then claim to have earned due to their strong work ethic.

Meanwhile a poor person that pursued a degree for a societally necessary profession like teaching or nursing only to find out that our society doesn't value society and won't pay them well enough to dig themselves out of trying to better themselves from the day they turned 18, and have at least half this ignorant, dipshit country condescend and blame them for their bad decisions.

Our incentive structures are perverse, and we root against our fellow citizens instead of cooperating and elevating one another like a society would. Honestly I'm glad the whole fucking system is mid-collapse. The pain of this collapse pales in the face of the generational servitude and misery this insatiable greed driven economy would inflict if it had found a way to persist.

A lot of class traitors will defend their lifelong, generational oligarch oppressors to defend that pathetic dopamine hit.

The oligarchs rule without end with 2 simple tricks:

1. Stoking social division between the peasants, ie abortion back and forth, civil rights back and forth, and...

2. making the labor class dependent on shallow social opiates, like for profit social media, to make them afraid that disrupting the system that crushes them will cost them that next shallow dopamine hit that is the only thing they have to look forward to.

Keep kicking at that football, Charlie

"Schools need to stop teaching my kids about how their crotches function! That's the parent's job!"

So when are you going to teach them?

"Fuck you! That would be uncomfortable so never! And if their ignorance gets them in trouble I will be there to condemn them for their mistakes and never let them forget it like any good parent!"

To me its tragic that the smartest human to exist in living memory had his societal, socialist worldview swept under the rug by the capitalist pigs. We acknowledge he laid the groundwork for our understanding of physical reality itself, but sure lets pretend he didn't know what he was talking about with regard to improving our relatively simple by comparison exploitative inter-monkey social systems.

I mean, at least the first sentence is true, since we will have destroyed ourselves by then.

You don't become a billionaire without being cool with exploiting people. Modern society rewards antisocial behavior.

We're all going to be foolish from time to time in life, and I sure know I'd sincerely appreciate a kind hand when it's my turn.

It depends on your net worth. I see Americans wish death on homeless people for lowering property values and insisting they did it to themselves. I see Americans telling student loan debtors who committed the crime of buying the lie and improving themselves being laughed at for their struggles.

Meanwhile a wealthy person can go to a fancy rehab for years of acting like a belligerent, intoxicated asshole, be called brave for it, and have their job with massive salary waiting for them after it all.

Second chances (and third, and fourth...) are for capital holders. Poor people half to walk a tightrope from birth and be both lucky and perfect to improve their station, with plenty of people ready to scold them for trying the moment they fall.
