On Reddit everything I posted was for the betterment of a private company owned by tech assholes and was sold and scraped for profit by other tech assholes.

Lemmy gets rid of that incentive to shut up and stay quiet. I still don’t post much but that’s just a product of how I partake in the Internet. I imagine I’ll post more as I age.

“Dependency on a single wage is the entire problem people are having” is a crazy statement to read from someone who is trying to give advice on the Internet. The entire problem is not that people have one job, it’s that all the profits are going to the fewest people in our society. No one should have to work two jobs to survive, that’s an insane status quo you’re attempting to defend.

Stop defending the status quo, stop defending corporations, stop trying to normalize surviving this system and start normalizing changing it. We need large societal reform and every additional person who has to work two jobs is another family ready to do so through violent means.
