I love how we always got war money, but never have education money, or infrastructure money, or telecommunications money, or socially useful in any meaningful manner money

The media totally thinks that working class people owe some sort fealty to politicians when they do the most basic theater. The big media bust so hard over theater not substance.
For some reason I’m thinking the “Pantheon of the Shiftless” would be a cool hidden boss rush challenge in an leftie Dark Souls.
Time for me to base my personality after these films now.
Bold of you to assume my city has viable public transportation.
♥️ 🚌 ♥️ - i love public transport though for real, my city doesnt
Unreal amounts of drip in this video. Also I wish my fro could be as clean and tight as these guys.
Personally I would be okay with "make every single goddamn bit a software an 'app" if and only if this shit actually worked. 99.69420% of app don't even do what they they say on the tin. So many of them are either mobile version of websites but their APIs don't work correctly or just better off going to the actual mobile version of the website and just doing it there.
I also forgot to amount of the amount of digital snooping and snitching these apps do. They all talk to each other hand-off your data to some cabal of E-demons whose soul purpose is to make your life annoying. Don't even get me started on locking features behind paywalls either.
Tech was supposed to make the future cool. 
I always imagine what the world would be like if the people who's job was to manufacture the bullshit jobs like you described would be like if they actually did something with their skills. Literally anything other than what they are doing 
. This whole world is so wack man.
I have never liked the “ageism” thing. I don’t hate him cause he is old, I hate cause he has a very long very bad stat sheet. He has had some of the worst political influences and instincts one could imagine for a 2024 candidate. Biden is truly yesterday’s man . I hate him cause just bad at politics.
Being old sucks but in and of itself isn’t the reason I think a bad pick.
I am voting for Dr.West. Funky Philosopher President 2024
The lack of empathy that I sometimes see in this area is glaring, just like the video points out.
That's a bummer. One of the core tenets of leftist thought of any denomination is empathy. I'm certainly not on some "All problems are of equal importance/All lives matter" shit, but yeah dudes dating problems is a real issue that deserves empathy. It's not like a climate change critical level issue, but it is an issue that regular working people face everyday, and the desire for emotional and sexual connection and validation is just a human issue. We gotta at least have empathy on that level.
Yes misogyny, patriarchy, and capitalism have given men tons of unseen advantages, but the men who suffer under misogyny, patriarchy, and capitalism aren't really the shotcallers of existing social order . If anything the katz who are looking for advice on this sort of thing would rather it NOT be this way, especially anyone who is on a leftist message board like this.
My point is I guess we gotta at the very least not handwave another person's problem away when they say "Hey I'm having problems with X". As bell hooks calls it "White-Supremacist Capitalist Patriarchy", is very REAL and I'm not saying we should minimize its uneven burdens and suffering it throws out. I'm just saying whenever someone says they wants to connect with other people (sexual, romantic, platonic, beyond or in-between those previous types), it's probably a bad move to tell them their problem isn't real. Alienation from each other and ourselves sucks, and it sucks more when that alienation is offhandedly dismissed.
It's very annoying that "other times it's nazis" is a potential issue in just about any facet of the net.
