YESSS

That's because the wealthy pay the rich to divide the rest of us.

The takers have convinced the rest of the world their victims are to blame for having nothing left to take.

Or a guy asking you for $5m to pay off his legal fees.

Modern day Les Misérables.

i'm not that well versed in american politics, but the height of brainwashing must be all the rednecks voting for the republicans?! I mean, its not like their politics will benefit poor people 🤔😮‍💨

Victim blaming is easier than recognising that you have no control in this society and that it could be you if the circumstances were slightly different..

Knowledge & Enlightenment help you recognize the villains and the traps they make.

Reality bites 😉👍

Techno King my a**e. He is just a rich prick.

How has this guy never been elected President? What he says is just common sense, not anything controversial.

Love this, should be a real thing.

Hey now, Kim K says you gotta get off your a*s and work hard. Funny how she made her money just flaunting hers.

When I was in highschool, I did walkathons every year for different causes. When looking for sponsors, I didn't go to the better parts of town. I crossed the tracks to the poor section. The poor have been there, and know the struggle. They were the ones that gave.

Also, what is with people getting permission to strike or protest?

This would take an extremely talented and well versed host to counteract the combined excuses and BS those fil thy rich made up to legitimate their wealth

If I ever had a servant, I'd be nice to them too

Avocado toast is obviously too good for the likes of you! Seriously, I've never tasted avocado. What does it taste like?

We have socialism for the rich and dog-eat-dog consumerism for the rest of us.

And by capture you mean steal from, defraud, or use others for pennies?

A few historical data. USA based, listed as YEAR:INDEX [MEDIAN HOUSE PRICE / AVERAGE HOUSEHOLD INCOME] - 1960: 2.68 [$15000/5600] - 1970: 2.75 [$24000/8700] - 1980: 3.55 [$64000/18000] - 1990: 4.13 [$124000/30000] - 2000: 3.9 [$165000/42000] - 2010 : 4.49 [$220000/49000] - 2020: 4.75 [$320000/67500] - 2023: 5.45 [$479000/87800]

Ever notice that every religion keeps telling us we should be happy or at least satisfied with running on that same hamster wheel our entire lives because we'll be rewarded after we're dead?

Buuuut guuuyys... how else are the capitalists supposed to keep their wage slaves chained??? Come on, guys! Think of the billionaires! 🥺

Bastardising unions brought us to this cross roads. It needs to stop, we are powerful together, that's why media keeps creating hate and division to keeps us down.

Not having to worry about bills would relieve over half to the depression in the US.

Once upon a time schools actually taught kids about the Labor Movement and why it was so important. Of course that's when they also taught civics and how to tell time on analog clocks so....

Unions, and democrats, gave us the 40 hour workweek and with it, the concept of “the weekend.” They stopped child labor and got us paid vacation time. They are currently fighting to get paid medical leave and free, or subsidized, childcare for working families. And somehow they’re the bad guys?

thank you... thank you should be here.

Only one guy quit after that?

TBF, none of what HR is doing in this example is "bad".

Without workers, no iPhone. Without workers, no Tesla. Without workers, no Starbucks. Without workers, no ANYTHING!!!

35 interviews in 5 months, applied to 200 companies. Reasons for rejections - you're great, we just found someone more flexible (read accepted to work for a lot less money)

Oopsy! A piece of truth came out!!😁

Ditto for recruitment agencies that advertise jobs as 'a great place to work and achieve your potential', yet fail to disclose the company name in the listing.

Also parasites.

Dignified wages! :D

Or, hear me out: Eliminate money and the need for it all together. No other creature has to pay to exist. Money was created solely to create an imbalance of power and give those with the money control over everything and everyone without money.

I took a friend to Five Guys a couple of weeks ago. 2 Cheese burgers and a large order of fries plus 2 drinks- add in the small tip (yes, it was stupid to tip someone for doing their job). The bill came to $47 and some change. I swear to dog I'm not exaggerating. You charge that much and still won't pay your employees a decent wage

You can still get fired if they want you gone. They have ways to do it.

The corporate tax rate was like 90% back in the 1950s. Today it's like 26%. Wealth redistribution works!

"We're like a family" is a red flag. Run, you fool!

Yeah... at my first performance review at my retail-minion job, my manager told me I got, like, a 30-cent raise and then reminded me not to talk about my wages with my coworkers because it's personal between me and the managers. Totally illegal, but short of starting a union or quitting my job in dramatic fashion, there's no benefit to pointing that out.

who asks for cover letters anymore? the temp agency i applied for said dont even bother sending one because no one reads them, they either get thrown away or they get passed over without even looking
