Just because something was easy isn’t a meaningful criticism

fighting. i wanna see that thing punch someone

But for Americans et al, dealing with the concept of "the price on sticker used to be smaller" is just a basic skill you need. Real vs nominal prices are not a hard thing to grasp, especially if you fancy yourself an economic or political thinker. Check the inflation adjusted prices!

OP: My chickens refuse to roost on their perches, so I’m trying to find their leader among them.

did you remember to express gratitude for not having to subsistence farm today?

Which is what would happen, if we were subsistence farming.

Folks, farming is not a side hustle. It’s an entire lively hood based on weather and pork belly futures. I promise you, it is not something most people are resourced or equipped to do.

(I do miss the animals very much. Having ducklings eat out of my hand and calves to bottle feed and a horse to love on made this bearable for me growing up. I'll never have either again because I know the work would break me)

Also I ain't going to engage with them directly but I'm petty enough to point and laugh - there's someone in the notes talking about how they "supplemented" their living By Subsistence and I have my head in my hands with the laughter at the absurdity of that sentence.

(To people who would rather be moving shit on a modern, non-subsistence farm... you can go and do that. There's a critical shortage of farm workers in most well-off countries. Because the work sucks and as soon as there's other options, two thirds of the farmers and their kids leave.)

"What happened to X neolithic culture? Where did they go?" They were subsistence farmers. The climate shifted just a tiny bit and they all starved or fled or both.

When the only thing stopping you from completely dehumanising someone is your own judgement regarding their privilege level relative to yours, you are not a safe person to be around.

As we have already seen in this series of articles, Rwanda’s ethnic division between Hutu (around 85 %) and Tutsi (around 14 %) had deep roots in colonial rule. Under Belgian administration, identity cards fixed ethnicity as a rigid category, and the Tutsi minority was favoured for education and government work. After independence in 1962, this hierarchy inverted, and Hutu elites consolidated control. [...] When RTLM launched in July 1993, it combined pop-culture style with extremist ideology. This hybrid made hatred sound normal, even entertaining. Music, jokes, gossip, and death threats co-existed in the same broadcast. [...] RTLM’s language fused entertainment with ideology. It mocked Tutsis as arrogant “cockroaches” (inyenzi), accused them of conspiring to enslave Hutus, and encouraged listeners to “work” to eliminate them—a euphemism for killing. Humour, music, and familiarity disguised the lethal message.

you think your shit being broken into every week is bad, imagine white people on golf carts...

I'm certainly the first, second, and third to agree that suburban sprawl is pretty fucking bad from both an ecological and cultural standpoint, and I'm also the first to agree that "punk" is a meaningless, overused term. But if "punk" does have any meaning whatsoever, those Florida tract housing boomers are way, way, way more punk than that original Redditor.
