Are you being used like a host to a parasite? I, for one, have been exploited for my labor, and I think it's time we change it. i hope this does not lack class, but let's discuss the uglies, do you get paid a wage? do you live off of dividends? do you own property and collect rent? How do you make a living? Also: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YMdIgGOYKhs

my research is taxpayer funded and seeks novel ways of sequestering CO2 with radiolysis, which if successful, would help keep our civilization sustainable for a little while longer deep down i'm not sure if it's the right thing to do though

Maybe not even them. then we use our fancy shiny space ships to travel from galaxy to galaxy, looking for sentient life forms. when we find any, we drop down, say "hey we come in peace!" and over the course of some decades trash their planet into unliveability too. repeat the process until the heat death of the universe. we can be the universal deadbeat brother who shows up swearing they've gotten clean until the inevitable "oh well, there goes the security deposit..." moment

but instead of a cheeky sitcom moment, it's basically genocide and ecological destruction on an unfathomable scale. all performed for the sake of contrarianism. could there ever be anything more human? what do you think about that, environmentalist science man?? huh?? HUH???

hey when living under the bootheel of capitalism has you down, never forget how far we've come used to be 150,000 or so years ago it was a very real and common occurrence that you'd wake up and find all the adult men in your family torn limb from limb, all of your food stores missing and the unmistakable sound of the other ones from across the plain hooting and hollering and beating on things to a rhythm and god you're so hungry... i used to think of this whenever working my retail job and it really makes a difference in what you're depressed about... I could have been those other ones.... SpaceClown fucked around with this message at 08:05 on Feb 10, 2017 |

I've been trying to think of ways to usurp the bosses and take ownership of the company into the hands of the employees who actually work, but I have a suspicion that there's some dark secret like they've pulled some shell game to illegally obtain funding or we're being sued or the company has some insane debts or something and it would only be shooting ourselves in the foot to own the goddamn thing.
