@TrotBot4 This experiment only majes sense with 60$ since Engels, Lenin, Trotsky and Rosa Luxemburg are no brainers. After that is where the interesting stuff happens. Do you include a mao for 10 so you have only one clueless idiot in there or do you try to get 4 mid tier characters?
@charybdeez Psychich Profit??? Dude that should be used as a pokemon inspired parody game im which you can collect "capitals" and they have a different type. Social Capital has weaknesses against cultural capital but is strong against emotional capital. Your goal is to collect them all!
@charybdeez You know... it's hillarious that Trump himself has clearer class consciousness than the ACP and he realises that patriorism and communism do not reconcile!
@Bundeskatzler In my experience Hinge was the only dating app worth using at all. All the other apps got me literally zero matches.
Compared to a few years ago as well I'm way more successful too. Probably a mix of personal growth and an overall shift of attitude towards dating apps.
@Bundeskatzler Lots of factors can play a role. Are you conventionally attractive? Do you live in a big city? Is the culture of your area more open or less so? Do you know how to present yourself? What are your expectations etc? What apps are you using? Etc...
@charybdeez I'd love to read a Lenin Pamphlet tearing all our contemporary political figures apart. Reading old polemics sometimes had me laughing out loud or going "whooooooaaaaaaa rosted dude" truly makes reading theory very entertaining
And it only took:
1) Bombing
2) An invasion
3) Constant nuclear threat
4) The most enduring trade embargo in world history enforced by most of the world
5) The collapse of Cuba's major trade partner
6) Worsening the trade embargo
Truly, liberalism is clearly the superior ideology
@charybdeez With all the ridiculous lies thrown at the various RCI sections I am really wary of crazy statements like that too. Like... there probably is a real basis but this is blown out to ridiculous proportions in order to attack them politically.
@AjfoxAlex Anti-RKP Stimmung ist leider so gottlos in meiner Stadt. Ist besser geworden aber jedes Mal wenn wir minim eine Bedrohung für ihre Position darstellen haben die sofort keinen Scham mehr. Das mit den Bullen ist jetzt aber eine neue Stufe.
Having the cops called on our org at a women's rights protest for talking to people about how to fight for women's rights by the people who organised it claiming to fight for women's rights by kicking out another group fighting for women's rights but not in they way they want to.
@AjfoxAlex Nur so bullshit Alibigründe. Einzelne leute hätten sich scheinbar von unserer Anwesenheit gestört gefühlt. Sprich die haben einfach Personen aus ihrer Anti-RKP gefragt wenn überhaupt und das als Vorwand genutzt. Danach noch in einem Statement gelogen wir wären aggressiv gewesen.
What usually happens is that if you do this too often and are not otherwise valuable to your employer they will find a reason or use the next best legal justification to fire you for something else. Labour laws only go so far. You are not invincible. The bosses have loopholes.
Germany has a concept called Krankschreibung.
Literally: sick writing. A doctor's note that says you cannot work.
When that note lands on your employer's desk, it is not a request. It is a legal shield.
Your boss cannot fire you. Your boss cannot demand you come in. Your boss cannot call you during your recovery.
In some countries calling in sick feels like asking permission. In Germany it is stating a medical fact.
That is not just good labor law. That is human decency. 🇩🇪
Being part of a generation that was told “Wikipedia is not a source” makes it genuinely baffling to me that jobs are now telling people to just use ChatGPT for everything.
@charybdeez So I skip them and midway through or at the end I go back and read the introduction. When I buy the book I am excited for the content. Reading the introduction feels like a chore and already made me put down books I have enjoyed a lot after retrying and skiooing the introduction
@charybdeez 90% Of prefaces I've read were useless. Mostly these go over the text you are about to read but nothing means anything to you since you still have to read up on it. Killed my enthusiasm for a text way too often and they only clicked for me after reading a good chunk of the book.
@charybdeez Brainstorming some more:
Lenin: "You are even a bigger disgrace than Bernstein" his finisher move is just shoting the guy with a revolver.
Engels: "I can tell you never did labour a day in your life... you still fight like an ape."
Che Guevara: "You can't even kill a man."
@charybdeez A real game with socialist figures would go so hard! Imagine you're Marx and he has a voiceline about annihilating his opponent like he told a guy while drunk allegedly. Or Rosa Luxemburg mocking you about needing a revolution of your fighting style since reform won't suffice.
@downbadcomment Husband does not realise his advances cause distress to wife.
Wife is (presumably) not capable of communicating her issue.
Husband doesn't take initiative instead
Wife also is not capable of realising change in behaviour is a bad sign.
Cause of divorce: Bad communication
