        Yes, which is why I’m not removing it, but generally this would fit a bit better in the political memes community.

        Our members shouldn’t hesitate to participate outside of the slrpnk instance; the Lemmyverse is friendly.

    They created the system that requires the capital they just so happen to have in order to do anything and then act like we need them because of their Risk Taking Qualities™®©

    As AI steals more and more jobs I’m really curious what the “I’m A Job Creator”™®© lie argument is going to evolve into.

    My elderly father had this idea that “workers don’t know how to run the business”. I told him about all the idiotic things the management at my old job did over the advice of the people actually doing the work, and I think it made him think about it.

    They do sometimes raise children…

    But have you seen oligarchs’ children?

      Yeah, but you know what they can do? Select the representatives we’re allowed to vote for.

    I’ve been thinking of this lately. Do bureaucrats even add anything to society? They’re usually there as a way to make sure tax payer money is spent “efficiently” but in a capitalist society they seem to be there to prevent taxpayers from getting assistance? Genuine question.

    "It is we who plowed the prairies, built the cities where they trade

    Dug the mines and built the workshops, endless miles of railroad laid

    Now we stand outcast and starving 'midst the wonders we have made

    But the union makes us strong

    They have taken untold millions that they never toiled to earn

    But without our brain and muscle not a single wheel can turn

    We can break their haughty power gain our freedom when we learn

    That the Union makes us strong"

    Solidarity forever.

    From what I have seen, with them leading, more useless work and less useful work is being done.
    The system they make, incentivises people to act like they are working, while not actually working and those not good at acting, keep on being dropped lower.
