    Yet they seem effective enough that you are regarding them as a threat, hence you’re investing all that time and energy you’re supposedly putting toward innovation into arguing with people like me on the Internet.

          I don’t believe you have a job. I think you’re in college, almost certainly undergrad.

            Then you’re as hopelessly ignorant and unempathetic as you accuse everyone else of being when they demand justice and change.

                No you don’t. You’re sitting on the toilet at work arguing with me on Lemmy. You’re just as naughty as the rest of us.

                You’re just as disaffected as everyone else and the day you realize it’s because the system you’re defending is the problem is the day everything will make sense to you.

                I don’t even use Youtube. It’s too full of ads. Come on. If you’re gonna lay out troll bait to kill time, you could at least try to throw out something halfway decent.

                  I’m not stuck in here with you. You’re stuck in here with me.

                    And as I escape, or fight back, you whine and demand I stop, because it is a threat to your existence and you know it as well as I do.

                    The one mistake I had been making over the years was thinking people like you are potential allies simply because you’re in the same boat as me, but you are clearly not. You’re part of the problem. You know the system exploits and enslaves everyone who is a part of it, you know it purposefully enables major crimes like rape, murder and abuse to keep us peasants in line without them having to wield the whips themselves, you know no one who works full time throughout their adult lives will get the benefits they were promised because it was all a lie.

                    What you don’t know is that you’re being chewed up and spit out all the same and that you’re not ever going to get to be a member of the ruling class like you want because everything you’re defending is hurting you, too.

                    One day you’ll get it. You’re the type that won’t get it until you’re 50 or 60, probably not until Social Security finally tanks and it comes out the trillions put into it have mysteriously disappeared somehow. And somehow, mysteriously, Jeff Bezos and the rest of the rich will have built an O’Neill cylinder by then, and left you to rot in the wastes with the rest of us. The rest of us, who you purposefully beat down to protect them thinking it was gonna get you someplace.

                    🤷 Lesson learned, I guess.
