@cafreiman Who are the richest people in our society? Are they banana farmers?

[Shook @ShookShack400]

@SnarkingIsLegal That's fine. It not his job to know that.

@YarilFoxEren If you think only Marxists believe workers are exploited, you've clearly never spoken to many people.

@nchobby24 @ConsvAF You should not give up on your principles; you should start living up to all of them. Start fighting the class war, don't stop fighting the culture war. Simple as.

[Shook @ShookShack400]

@nchobby24 @ConsvAF The image is largely correct because it says that the people who are fighting the culture war forget they are being manipulated by rich interest groups to achieve goals that are largely orthogonal to the cultural goals anyways. The media coverage is mostly a distraction.

[Shook @ShookShack400]

@Androkguz @GR1FF1NONE Man... we just had this whole conversation about value, yet you are still not using the word precisely...

We want people to produce more things in less time, yes. But people who generate money via investment are not productive. They make money for nothing. That's the whole point

[Shook @ShookShack400]

@giant_marble_2 @ConsvAF I don't read it that way. The image says that people are so busy fighting a culture war that they forgot about the rich, powerful interests that are stoking it. Which is true. Culture war is constantly being weaponized to push policy. Doesn't mean the culture issues don't matter.

[Shook @ShookShack400]

@FreedomFlaming0 Please explain in concrete terms what that means.

[Shook @ShookShack400]

@nchobby24 @ConsvAF Whenever people say that the left should concede on culture war, they are really saying you should give up on your principles.

If you don't have principles, and you don't have power, then you have nothing.

[Shook @ShookShack400]

@nchobby24 @ConsvAF Some culture war issues are distractions, others are not. If they matter to your base, you should not be afraid of fighting any battle. That is how you win people over.

The elephant in the room is that the left is not fighting the class war, because they lack the broad base.

[Shook @ShookShack400]

@giant_marble_2 @ConsvAF The left will fight both, as they should. "Culture war" is a broad term that includes a lot of media non-sense, but there are real cultural issues with stakes that matter.

@RageCrusader Do you call your mom ugly because she doesn't look like a 20 something model too?

[Shook @ShookShack400]

@gosuprime022 @WeskerIsRight Have you ever considered that supermodels are not the end all be all of character design? That flaws (or in most of these images just age) can make characters look more believable and human?

I'm not saying you can't have the super model games too, but why are you so offended?

[Shook @ShookShack400]

@WeskerIsRight I'm starting to think you just hate the way normal people look. All of these seem fine to me.

[Shook @ShookShack400]

@Androkguz @GR1FF1NONE Just to get ahead of things: yes producing more things with less time/effort is more productive. Obviously.

But the original point was that when you become wealthy, you no longer have to do work; somebody else does! It's not efficiency, it's offloading.

[Shook @ShookShack400]

@Androkguz @GR1FF1NONE I feel you have not given a very clear answer. How am I supposed to address your original claim that "less effort =/= less productive"? That was the whole point here.

@KirscheVerstahl It's everybody's hobby now. Keep crying about it.
