fund … social services
No ressources for that, V****ite government would still be in all the forever wars
You simply need to work for the Socialist Department of Defense to receive them. The forever wars are the socialist social services
Under funny clown hammer socialism, the US military is considered welfare and bombing campaign on Yemen is social work.
Reminder: This is not a debate subreddit, it’s a place to circle-jerk about communism being cool and good.
:based-department:
Don’t forget that your taxes go to the worker owned Lockheed Martin in order to make more missiles for the peoples war in Afghanistan
Meme is good, though to nerd out, if the workplace and apartment are democratic co ops, 9 to 5 and getting kicked out aren’t super-likely to happen.
It’s a coop with weighed voting, our entrepreneur comrades clearly know more about running a business so their vote counts more than the average worker.
They’re not landlords. They’re the housing vanguard
:jesus-cleanse:
The democracy of the democratic workplaces and apartments is succdem democracy. So yes, these things are very likely to happen.
Don’t like it? :vote: for a different elected representative in four years time and hope he’ll be different despite coming from the same pool of sociopathic nerds as your current one.
9 to 5? Sounds heavenly.
You can always tell people who have no real experience with the contemporary reality of working. They drop shit that hasn’t existed for most people forever like 9 to 5
9 to 5 never existed unless your workplace skips lunch. An average office job is 8 to 5, 8 hours plus the one hour lunch, proving like you said how they’re completely out of touch with even white collar office workers.
Yeah, the weirdest part about 90s/00s culture is the idea that a stable desk job in an air conditioned office is the worst thing ever.
I mean that genuinely does suck when you’re doing it. The fact that many other people have worse jobs doesn’t change the fact that if you spent 10 years pretending to be an important businessman at the business factory you’d feel like a drained, soulless husk too.
We’ve all got it shitty in this fucked up system. The only ones winning are the rich and even those fuckers manage to be miserable lmao
Desk work in an office was the most performative, exhausting thing I’d ever done. I remember starting factory work and having it fucking reshape my body worse than the start of any workout I’d ever tried. Like the physical demand of it was brutal. But there were no weird stigmas about talking to people or not talking to people. I didn’t feel like I had to pretend to work when we weren’t busy. My boss didn’t feel the need to constantly imply that I might lose my job. I never questioned whether what I was doing was useful.
And with factory work, my body eventually caught up. I got in shape and even though I was physically tired at the end of the day, my brain was alright and I could myself to do a load of dishes or spend some time with my kids. Even when I was exhausted, I knew I had a good reason to be. For some reason, sitting in an office chair doing nothing for 8 hours is incredibly taxing. I’ve corroborated that with so many people. It’s bizarre. Office work turned me into a shell of a person. I was in a brain fog for months at a time with only a few hours of reprieve, just enough to remind me what being normal felt like and that I was depressed.
Edit: may be relevant that I’m autistic. Office culture does seem to be designed for someone, just certainly not for me. And honestly whoever it’s designed for can fuck off out of principle
My last job was like this weird combination of both. We were in a food packaging plant with heavy machinery active all the time and no air conditioning (so like 100+ degrees at all times) doing hard manual labor for a total of like 2.5h each 8h shift. My direct supervisors didn’t really give a shit if we were doing anything for the rest of the time, but we still had to either hide or pretend to work for the rest of the time, and we absolutely could not make any mistakes about it whatsoever. like you might literally be sitting around with nothing to do from 10 to 2, but if 2:02 comes around and you’re still not doing anything but across the entire facility some work finally opened up at 1:59 well you’re gonna have a fuckin meeting where they shout and threaten to fire you and accuse you of being lazy and shit
have they considered actually doing their jobs as supervisors and letting us know when work opens up? no. of course not. we’ve just gotta know.
absolutely fucked
edit: just to spell it out as well (because its so ridiculous) they literally just expected us to be walking circles around the facility with a broom in hand for hours on end. that way we’d know when finally there was something to do. :agony-shivering:
