Agreed. It **should **be a meritocracy. However, for anyone who has worked a job for more than a few years, it’s obvious that it often doesn’t work that way.

Putin thought he would take Ukraine in a matter of days. It’s been years.
The ruble has been hit hard by all the sanctions. The Russian economy has been weakened to divert funds to a war inept Russia can’t even finish. Russia’s infrastructure and money-producing assets like their oil refineries and rail yards are being attacked by Ukrainians as well as partisans within Russia.
Are Russians killing a lot of Ukrainians? Sure, but they’ve made a laughable amount of progress in Ukraine over the years. Look at the Black Sea fleet numbers. Ultimately Putin is fucking over Russia for a war he can’t finish.
Nobody is forcing me to use Office or Teams, but I’m stuck with a single ISP.
Why won’t regulators even LOOK at the ISP oligopoly? For fucks sake.
Treason and tax fraud! How long do you think you would get away with those crimes?
Like George Carlin said, “It’s a big club, and YOU ain’t in it!”
It’s a good thing current supreme court justices don’t rule in favor of the highest bidder! Oh… wait.
The only thing the 1% care about is seeing their bank accounts increase.
Gregg Abbott is a human trafficker that won’t be prosecuted for breaking the law because he is above it. If you or I committed the same crime we would be in jail.
You have an irrational belief that you must be correct. How original.
Try looking up the Dunning Kruger effect sometime.
You seem to have forgot all the data to support your argument. I’ll respond to your latest unsubstantiated bullshit, but this is the last time:
The propaganda I consume pushes me to defend America, its allies, and civilian lives.
The propaganda you consume has you fighting for America’s cold war enemy. The one that has been sowing discord for decades. You’re not a patriot. You’re just a useful idiot for genocidal Russia that can’t even win a war they started against a country 1/10th of their size.
Spotify has always been a pain in the ass. For the longest time you couldn’t listen to a single song someone shared because they forced you to create an account.
Companies that force you to create an account to do the simplest action are assholes.
Lol check the ruble’s value over time. Feel free to get back to me if you have any data or rationality to back up your room temp IQ argument.
You’re defending America’s long time enemy because you’ve consumed their propaganda. You’re not an American patriot, you’re a Russian simp.
Internet should be treated as a utility, not a for-profit business who we need to give more government kickbacks to. Look how well that turned out in the past.
The people at the top made tons of money. Also, back in 2018 they only employed 350 people. They were valued at 1.8 billion at the time.
Maybe if someone’s business can’t stay afloat without free labor from 10k people then you shouldn’t be a business.
Reddit was always too greedy to pay moderators. I can’t believe how many idiots line up to do a multi billion dollar company’s work for free.
It’s a pretty dumb take to think AI would bother enslaving humanity.
Fuck fast fashion that requires you to buy low quality socks from sweat shops every year. Buy high quality socks! Everyone wins.
AI has it’s usecases, but it’s not currently at a place where students can be left alone with an AI. This is dumb.
