4channers need to be stomped like rotten pumpkins.
People working without monetary incentive? The Capitalists preach that greed is the only motive for productivity! The superheroes from American kids cartoons who work without personal inventive could never exist.
The craziest thing Ive learned in my life is that spider-man co-creator Steve Ditko was an "objectivist" aka Ayn Rand follower
How tf do you write about a working class hero struggling with money, hates his boss profoundly and fights bilionares and you are a fucking ancap?
Ayn Rand was a firm believer of the myth that in a totally free market society, no matter where you were born you'd have the opportunity to become what you truly want. For example in her "strike" book, one of the striker is a train worker..
That would makes their anti-Communist indoctrinatiom more ironic since it implies that the Communists are hard working innovative people against the lazy Capitalists. What kind of diligent open-minded ideal Capitalist would always blame Communists for all the problems in life?
Of course greedy fucks will preach that being like them is a virtue, but if everyone had the privilege of being as greedy, lazy, exploitative and opportunistic as they are, nothing would ever get done. Maybe they're social parasites and not role models after all...
Insurance doesn't cover it. But if it gets enough Likes then gofundme will make an exception. #americanhealthcare
Somewhat off‐topic, but I’ve noticed that lately crowdfunding is becoming an increasingly popular method for studios and individuals alike, coinciding with tipping becoming an almost mandatory practice on behalf of service workers. This correlation is probably far more significant than anybody realizes; it’s as if the upper classes are slowly and subtly outsourcing the task of payment to us.
In the US at least, the normative expectant tip has gone from 15-20% to 20%-30%, even at counter service restaurants and retailers. Like, it's the default on cashier tablets now.
It's feels like just one big unspoken regressive consumption tax, placing the economic burden of society onto the working class while the bourgeoisie continue to profit.
