Also billionaires: We’ll use foreigners to train the AI so we can pay next to nothing for our models.
Every big business owner believes they are the reason the economy turns and if it wasn’t for their ruthless intrepid capitalism giving other people jobs the world would be in shambles. Then they turn around and tell each other with a straight face that labor is the largest business expense and if you want to be successful you should do everything you can to cut business expenses.
Also billionaires: we’re going to ship smart foreigners over here to work for lower wages and worse conditions than domestic workers and hold deportation over their heads in case they wanna get cute
that’s what i’ve been saying: immigration is not a left-wing proposal. it’s a blandly right-wing one, and a quite big one at that. replace your own population with a cheaper, often younger work-force.
And you had the supposed liberals saying: “You know what? We need our own Elon Musk.” as a response to all of the election loss.
Totally Dems. Keep helping make everyone poorer. That’s a winning strategy.
What you need to do is divest yourselves of these billionaire leeches and embrace the working class.
It has a sort of logic to it. In a capitalist system to best way to fight is using massive amounts of money. Or violence. And the choices seem rather limited these days…
It really doesn’t, especially when you look at the amount of enthusiasm Bernie’s campaign generated. This isn’t the 90’s anymore and people aren’t prospering like they have historically.
But Bernie lost anyways because he didn’t have the support of the capitalist elite, who as we can see are the true determiners of election outcomes.
Bernie lost because Democrats have no principles and subverted the democratic primary process via superdelegates.
And Democrats follow the will of the capitalist elite. They won’t allow anyone to come to power who would substantially challenge the status quo, no matter how much support they have from the people.
You’re not wrong, but that statement doesn’t give them proper credit for the reprehensible fuckery they pulled during the 2016 primary.
The fun part is there is a limit to how long this can go on for. When the masses have nothing to lose they’re gonna be in trouble.
I’m moving my factories overseas to give your jobs to foreigners because you won’t let me pay you basically nothing
I think it’s worth tagging on that a lot of these countries have huge cost-of-living subsidies and public works, designed to reduce the base cost of living for individual residents. Yes, the pay is shit. But also things like rent and energy and $/calorie are way lower than what you’ll find in an equivalent American city.
That’s one reason why Americans who live abroad can live so well. An expat in Korea or Argentina or Hungary enjoys the benefits of these legacy public works and public services and public housing that haven’t been totally privatized and atomized yet (on top of the strong dollar). Meanwhile, migrants to the US are forced into the more deplorable of slums and ghettos, because the US is so openly hostile to anyone without access to real estate passed down by extended family.
Blue shell the CEOs and billionaires.
Turn your brass shells blue with a little heat and brass clippings.
Love the grammatical error. Makes it even funnier.
Also, we’re going to use you to train our AI using captchas from porn sites.
Hello yes da I am American poster.
