Syndie nerd with a degree in being annoying. Generally a typical Finnish-American Wobbly โ๐น๐ I don't know what a Paradox game is and I don't want to find out.
@daytrashin The IWW doesn't work like that. We're the union of no contracts and no union bosses. Those who organize with us make the decisions for their workplace and bring their grievances to their employers themselves.
@daytrashin "Submissive tendencies"
Yeah, that's definitely the most common descriptor of a Wobbly ๐ We're also famous for supporting capitalism and electoral politics ๐ The feds love us and have us on a special 'do not bother them' list ๐
@daytrashin Well, if you want to die young, I suppose that's your business. I don't think ranching is particularly psychologically strenuous, either. Dead animals are unpleasant, I suppose, but that's life.
@daytrashin Sounds to me like you're too cheap to pay people to help you, which is admittedly rather admirable on your part. For the record, I've never had a desk in my life, and if you had to do what I do for a living, you'd run home crying on the first day.
@daytrashin You're mad about having to pay into the society that raised you while I'm mad about the employing class making a profit off of *my* hard work. One of us might be an ungrateful whiner, but it's certainly not me.
@daytrashin Medicine is already privatized in the US, which is why it's so obscenely expensive. It's also rich for you to declare that someone who works for a living doesn't deserve to eat because they are tired of being robbed by the employing class.
@daytrashin You're able to do that because you live in a society and your tax money is used to pay for the research and development of medicine. As for beef, if you're not willing to work, plenty of others are. Besides, we eat too much beef as a nation anyway.
The decline of syndicalism as a prominent leftist tendency has caused immense damage to the American left. If you are not an employer, a landlord, or a cop, you are working class. End of story.
@MMcmold86440@nikicaga You can escape from bad standing if you teach your local how to sing "Casey Jones", but they'll put you right back if you attempt "That Sabo-Tabby Kitten", or heaven forbid, "Hallelujah, I'm a Bum".
@lionel_trolling Yeah, and if you're an IWW member, you are exempt from any restrictions ๐ Because of course the left works just like the neoliberal center ๐
@daytrashin You have the politics of a twelve-year-old who doesn't want to do household chores. Good luck getting fuel for your diesel generator or any motorized vehicle if society collapses. Enjoy getting old with no medicine!
@daytrashin You don't benefit from electricity, clean water, modern medicine, public infrastructure, public education, the internal combustion engine, the fire department, clean air, a stable currency, imported goods, or textiles?
@player1129949@lydiakauppi@MitchATreadwell Some idiot linguist traveled to Mongolia in the mid-19th century and decided that the Finnish language was derived from Mongolian, in short.
@daytrashin Oh, you do? But I thought you were a rugged individualist who relied on no one. ๐ค Could it be that even you benefit from living in society? ๐ค
@ranchyplains Well, I hope you never get to find out how wrong you are. I also hope you are able to get some friends or family in the future. You sound very lonely doing everything by yourself.
