Yes it is true. The western societies suck. There is too much focus on making money and consuming bullshit. Society should be more focused on humans, humam growth. This society is not fit for humans. It produces boredom, alcoholism, mental illness because everyone has to play a fucking role, to keep this piece of shit society together. Fuck this. Spending your whole life at work is madness. Life shouldn't be this way. |

Capitalism brings out evil in people, I would agree. I’d also agree that western society breeds unhappy human beings. I would argue that playing a role in keeping society together is a good thing though, and that western society tends to make you feel worthless and overwhelmed. |

It can be a good thing, yes. But not under these circumstances. See, i not a very masculine man by nature. So i dont fit in the traditional male role. This makes me unhappy. |

The basis of the moral condemnation of wage labour is not that the wages are too low, but that wage labour by its very nature dehumanizes man. This means, for Marx, that it defeats his natural human urge toward spontaneous productive activity, converts his free creativity into forced labour and drudgery, and frustrates his human need for a variety of occupations. The latter theme - the division of labour or occupational specialization as an evil - is a salient one in Capital; and the history of the evolution of the modem factory system that Marx gives in Part IV of the book is not presented out of an interest in economic history per se but as a means of describing the horrifying extremes that the division of labour attains under the "machinofacture" developed during the Industrial Revolution. As he expresses his view here, "...constant labour of one uniform kind disturbs the intensity and flow of a man's animal spirits, which find recreation and delight in mere change of activity." Robert C. Tucker, introduction to The Marx-Engels Reader, 2nd Edition |

I finished reading “notes from the underground” last night and now come to think of it, you've got a bit of that going on. Minus the spite, I don’t get that from you. You’re right though, sadly. |

You guys are way too pessimistic. I think Silicon Valley is doing a great job providing us with new ways to thrive outside of the traditional 9-5 wageslave paradigm. The sharing economy, livestreaming, and suchlike are going to revolutionize the fuck out of the way we live. Some liberals try to say a Twitch-based economy is untenable, but once we win the Fight for 15 things are really going to take off. |

Sorry, but i really believe the internet makes you stupid. Especially facebook and twitter |

No, the Internet just makes stupid people louder. Back in the '90s only academics and educated folks living cities were online. Then we started expanding broadband to rural and suburban areas. Huge fucking mistake. Do you seriously think Drumpf would've been elected if the morons who voted for him weren't being propagandized by Putin on Facebook and radicalized by the r/The_Donald on Reddit? |

I have no clue, but i can tell you that filterbubbles have a negative effect on people. You can't have a serious discussion on twitter about politics for example. Thats sad, and most people would have not expected that, when they were excited about the possibilities of global communication. Maybe the people are not ready for this yet, or maybe the technology is not advanced enough. I dunno, but i am very disappointed |

For example, trolling is considered a problem. But if you take trolling seriously, it is more like hacking or philosophy because it questions the beliefs, ideologies and assumptions most people have. This could result in very interesting conversations, but most people will just block you. |

i think Monoid means that people that doesnt manage to have a role is unhappy. i agree. but i am not agree with the fact that western society brings mental illness. borderline experiences make people mentally ill. i feel accustomed to the system even though i have no kind of working or housing sureness yet. society kicks you out for specific reasons usually. and embrace you when you get your shit together. that way you can finally have a say again maybe? |

if you think about it the parallels between capitalism and scientology are striking - hard work - little or no pay - expensive self help treatments - problems always seen as personal, never systemic - critics and ex members seen as monstrous enemies - secretive, power mad leaders - paranoia - mind control - private jails - Tom Cruise |

This is the solution to poverty/ homelessness/ the enormous wealth gap: Uncriminalize lockean homesteading 100% free market, no government. If a lizard or rabbit can dig a hole and live in it, why can't we homestead a house/land? Because of tyranny. Think about it, the main cause of poverty is 1)low income 2)high expenses. If people can live for free on homesteaded land, without the 'structural violence' of forced apartment rentals in a human farm, ie. lower #2 way way down past the statist artificial slave price, then #1 wouldn't need to be very high at all. People can even grow their own food on their homesteaded land, to make both #s nearly zero, which means freedom and no need to work shit jobs unless u want extra income. A huge drop in the need of corporate jobs would plummet shit corporation value and power. If that happens, all those additional houses that all those elite class landlords own would plummet in value, due to much less demand since they now have to compete with free homesteading. And if they don't live in them directly they can be homesteaded anyway. The current system is about landlords farming free range humans and the government farming everyone. The basic equation is every human is naturally logically entitled to 1 share of earth land (earth land divided by total population). Any human claiming more than this, especially in conflict with another human who wants that same land like a homeless person, is initiating force and has an illegitimate claim. There are other complicated factors such as uneven population density such as cities and uneven desirability of different chunks of land but the free market could iron it out based on the basic equation and the non aggression principle. Spread this idea, it is the solution, how is it not the solution? This is memetic warfare and this is the best meme in my opinion. Will you help replicate it? |

The amazon monopoly crime boss jeff bezos makes 11 million dollars an hour... He is not free market. That is government+business=fascism, a giant centralized monopoly, corporatocracy. Pure free market is merely all voluntary trade. All involuntary force is outside of the market (ex. selling slaves or something is not free market cuz it is not voluntary for the slaves). But 2 people can voluntarily fight in UFC and not break the NAP cuz they voluntarily do it. In every voluntary trade both parties benefit since both want to trade and thus want the other item more, like mutual gift giving. The government claims wide umbrella ownership of nearly all the land, it can all be ethically homestead since their claim is illegitimate. |

sounds good but could i take a pipe to this hole |

tony danza's mom is the owner of her hole so you'd have to ask her if you want to put a pipe in it. |

if you think about it it's not actually a good idea to live in a hole |

but if you don't think about it maybe it is |

I know you're joking, but living in a hole is actually a pretty good idea. Capitalist land developers have convinced our society that building phallic highrises and sprawling McMansions is the way to go, but the fact is these structures primarily serve as signals of the opulence of the 1%. If instead we focused on developing the technology to build DOWN we could hugely reduce carbon emissions with geothermal heating and cooling, not to mention all the green space preserved on the Earth's surface. Don't throw shade on living in a hole! |
