Re:Why the Fed wants to crush workers (19 Jan 2023) by sameEvrWuz on Sunday January 22, 2023 @12:18PM (#34479651)
Of course we’re in odd territory. Social media has allowed us to normalize on the formerly niche idea the economy is like a Ponzi scheme; we keep putting our time and money into the fund, no time or money for ourselves when we need it because it’s been JIT to rely on 24/7 hustle.

Don’t step off the treadmill for any reason or someone will take your spot.

To an extent this is fine; people need to go jogging not to the environmentally destructive gym with its pipeline of waste to make a treadmill. Reality of industrialism is hidden behind technical jargon that lacks heart and compassion.

The problem is unimaginative elders in charge double down on ideas the workers have no say, like banker guy. These people are seriously addicted to controlling human agency, and are flipping out that may be coming to an end. Trickling down is what they trained for their entire lives; how dare we take that away!

Watch Chris Matthews meltdown on air. Everyone is addicted to the propaganda they were weened on, the elders are post war shell shocked, and their progreny Cold War paranoids, both huffed leaded gas fumes. We’re taking orders from fragile, frail, inflexible, paranoid automatons more so than human beings at this point.
