    Hi-C

    It doesn’t have to be a perfect 50/50, but my point is there should be some better way to improve your conditions that doesn’t result in you literally gambling based off s*** you can’t control.

    And the issue is, it’s not just you gambling at your own expense, someone is winning on the other side of that. There are things that you should be able to take calculated risks on, but it shouldn’t set you back no matter what because you had s***ty RNG because your parents had s***ty RNG and so on and so forth.

    Everyone wants to work dude, or at least contribute. The problem is some people benefit way too much for exploiting other people’s situations. When you give someone no options, and their only choice is to either stay the same with no marginal improvements, or at some point, take a risk and it potentially be disastrous, imo that’s an issue that needs to be addressed.

    Sorry if that was long winded or was convoluted, I’m tryna stay organized but I’m on my phone rn

    I understand your point genuinely I do and like I said earlier in a vacuum and on paper I agree with it.

    But realistically why should a lender give you an interest free loan with no incentive for them.

    Let’s more this away from theoretically and how this can be implemented in the real world.

    we need a socialism vs. capitalism megathread to not derail threads like this into a macro-argument about econ systems (i mean this certain issue does play into the problems of capitalism which is why it probably went the direction it did)

    Aight bet, good looks

    But yeah, economic mobility is largely a myth. anyone you see going from lower to upper is always going to be an exception, not a rule. same s*** why i say this isn't an issue of education. it is a choice to structure things that way, and why do we do it? so the system reproduces itself. if education is the great equalizer in itself, then should it matter what you get educated in? no. but, everytime you see a college student come out with debt and not so good job prospects, you have people telling them they have a useless degree. so what should they do? study business, finance, law etc., then get a nice corporate job, entrench themselves within the status quo.

    a lot of the comrades on this site have been socialists/communists waaaay before me so this aint true

    True, but you're the first one mentioned anytime a thread is even loosely related to socialism or communism

    There's bound to be some folks you've inspired

    Now take your f***ing flowers

    i'm not trying to rock the boat, but i've never seen @Synopsis post about trans ethics or trans rights or the socioeconomic reform of lgbtq+ centers.

    i think the forum needs to give @Synopsis a chance to long hard look at his cishet privilege and inability to recognize the needs of queer folks.

    this the most played-out gimmick i've ever seen, people been making these same anti-SJW/progressive jokes since 2016, do something better
