Imagine getting to within spitting distance of one the greatest possible achievements in life only to fall short while everyone is watching. What a disappointment and an embarrassment. Those poor stairs are probably scarred for life and in need of serious therapy.

Did you even bother to look at the relevant numbers? Population growth (1.1%) is roughly a third of average inflation rates (~3%).

The more unions we have, and the more people there are who are part of them, the better off people are ultimately going to be, wherever they happen to be. FFS, *UNIONS* are what made America great. Not capitalism. Unions. They literally built the middle class that American capitalists have spent over half a century…

That’s because they’ve got hundreds of billions of dollars invested in fossil fuel infrastructure assets — refineries, rigs, derricks, tankers, etc, etc. All those assets will become stranded assets (ie worthless) if humanity gets over its ‘Drill, baby, drill’ obsession. The people with huge sums invested in oil…

Yeah, but that whole ‘pivot back to’ thing would imply they stopped focusing on gasoline at some point. That never happened. The most they did was spend a tiny amount on examining how they could capture and control renewables the same way they currently do with fossil fuel. The answer was clearly, “No.” So they’re…

Which only needed ‘saving’ because the people at the top only think about money and made some truly stupid decisions blindly pursuing of it. Decisions, I might add, that they were told, in no uncertain terms, would blow up in their faces if made. But they made them anyway. Because money.

If you understand capitalism, then you understand this is exactly in line with capitalist dogma, especially for the wealthy — sharing the wealth means that other people should share their wealth. Not ‘you.’ You’re a special flower, and you earned your wealth with all your ‘hard work’ exploiting and abusing employees...…

Yeah, the notion that we’d somehow turn a corner and figure our shit out in a century or two is wildly naive (sorry to burst your bubble, but Star Trek isn’t happening). Given the speed of evolution, that’s nowhere near enough time for humanity to outgrow the detrimental base instincts that are now actively harming…

And that frugality will, naturally, apply to himself, right? Right???

On the contrary — it’s not that games prices are too low, it’s that executive pay bloat is too high. And Mr Capcom president, there’s an ‘easy’ fix...fire your stupid ***, especially after throwing out such an idiotic take on a situation *YOU* had a hand in creating in the first place.

The board can overrule the CEO’s decisions. They can also fire him. The company president can overrule or fire the CEO. None of that happened. Because they all wanted the same thing. And firing the CEO would change nothing about that or what Unity’s leadership wants to do with Unity or the developers who use it. It’s…

The CEO is just the tip of the iceberg of all the people who need to go. Removing Ricc the Dick would barely make a dent in the decision process that created this mess.

Nobody cares at this point. Nothing short of walking back Unity’s *ENTIRE* upper management — execs, board of directors, etc — will undo the damage. It’s their fault. They thought it was a good idea. Which means the people responsible for this fiasco are still around, still in a position to make another equally stupid…

Take all of this with a grain of salt (a lot of them). Lots of ‘projects’ are considered but never get off the drawing board, and these timelines are nothing more than management’s way of projecting budgets and breakdowns. Chances are these are just aspirational plans and ideas for where to direct the studio’s…

The classic non-apology — she’s not sorry she’s a pathetic, disgusting, stupid person. She’s sorry she got *CAUGHT* being a pathetic, disgusting, stupid person. 

“Well, fuck off then...” is the *ONLY* correct response to bigots.

No, one can’t make that argument. Because the US military is 100% funded *NOT* by private companies or corporations but by the US government, ie its citizens. And your other examples, or rather those you try refute? They also happen to be ones most directly under attack by capitalists. USPS? It was one of the…

#1 Yes, in fact you can. America and other capitalist nations have been actively sabotaging and attacking communist and socialist countries for over a century. Just because there aren’t tanks rolling down streets and squads of soldiers trading bullets, doesn’t mean there isn’t a war happening. The Cold War *WAS*…

Find an alternative that capitalists haven’t actively, aggressively, and *VIOLENTLY* put down whenever and wherever it emerges? Don’t bother searching. It’s a trick, because there aren’t any. Capitalists kill by the thousands (at times, daily) to keep capitalism running so they can stay on top and keep everyone else…

This is Capitalism in action. There’s a demand and a market to supply. So businesses *WILL* adapt to exploit it for profit. Yes, it’s entirely artificially created, but capitalism doesn’t care about any of that. Only profit. If there’s profit to make, that profit must be made. Hell, Capitalism will have businesses cut…
