Injustice. Heartlessness. Violence. “Utopia justifies any means” worldview. Schizophrenia, paranoia, and other mental disorders. Traumatising pain. Misunderstandings. Nazism. Racism. Sadism. Masochism. Bullying. People turning into monsters in moral sense. Politicians turning into monsters in moral sense (a subpart of the above, but I thought I should specify it). Treachery. Thievery. Murders. War. True evil. Sinfulness. Original Sin.

This one road in my town, that’s only one lane somehow, and has it’s own crossing across a busy railway line to reach a total of 3 houses.

TacoNissan,

Those 3 houses have a right to access a roadway just as much as you or I

CanadaPlus,

Agreed, but why not attach it to the side of town they’re on, or at least give them a normal, full road like all the others if your going to bother the rail traffic?

I’m guessing it was a driveway originally, and crossed the tracks way back when that was no big deal, and became a public road later somehow. It’s still cursed.

ArsFireside,

I’ve already said it below, but I’ll say it again:

Please love yourself. You are wonderful even beside you doing anything. If you’re feeling guilty, then you should try to do something good to redeem it.

BitSound,

After you hit a billion dollars, you should get a party and a nice trophy that says “You Won Capitalism!”, and then you should start from scratch again.

Shares / Stock

Flumsy,

So you’re saying every company should be owned by a single person? If two people want to start a company, it should only belong to one person? That doesnt sound right to me…

CaptPretentious,

Maybe it’s more about the legal requirement for infinite profit due to being publicly traded. This has led to such fun things like, rising costs, planned obsolescence, the general enshitification of everything.

CanadaPlus,

The laws says (indirectly) that management must work towards profit. It doesn’t specify long term or short term profit, though, and in many cases investors show up specifically for slow but steady returns. There’s plenty wrong with capitalism, but it’s not pure nonsense. If it was, it’d be really easy to get rid of.

CanadaPlus,

So many people have no idea how finance works, but still comment. It’s too bad, because there’s things that do deserve criticism, but fly under the radar as a result.

Zacryon,

Imperfect political and economic systems like our current version of capitalism and democracy. (Both could be better, or even replaced by something different which is better.)

Violence.

Judging without critical and unbiased thinking.

Socsa,

I’m curious how you propose we achieve a perfect political system without building on a series of imperfect ones?

Zacryon,

In practise, we probably don’t. But maybe we could speed up a lot of progress if we could remove some obstacles and think about it really carefully.

Flumsy,

Thats impossoble because a perfect systen depends on one’s morals which differ from person to person. Whats a perfect system to you may be a bad system to me.

Zacryon, (edited )

A perfect system would be able to deal with this. Of course, that’s a purely ideological goal which probably wouldn’t be reached in practise. But I think we could gain a lot on the road there.

We’ve had standard stuff (injustices et. al), we’ve had edgy if understandable stuff (god/gods/religion/whatevs), so I think I’ll instead go with an unhinged take that I (mostly) only say for the memes:

Dolphins. They’re fucking assholes. And like. They are assholes in much the same way we humans are: They aren’t thoughtless critters just following basic survival rules. They are higher-brained creatures that are intelligent enough to be capable of choosing between kindness and cruelty, and they are absolutely cruel in a lot of occasions.

Now you may be wondering “does that mean you also think humans should go”, to which I say no, because I happen to be human. So of course I’m rooting for my own team. Dolphins are competition for the spot of “intelligent species that engages in cruelty” and so they gotta go.

stolid_agnostic,

You had me up till “please don’t kill all the humans”.

VinesNFluff,
@VinesNFluff@pawb.social avatar

I mean, you can do that too if you’re into it. But I’m rooting for my own team here.

stolid_agnostic,

Well based off your own argument, we’re as bad as dolphins lol.

VoilaChihuahua,

Any individual possessing more than a lifetime’s worth of money. Like after you have $30 million the rest goes into a bucket for everyone else to use. You can re-up from the bucket once you drop below mmmm a 5 year amount of money say $2 million. You can still amass bazillions of dollars, just not kajillions.
