They are 20 years old at this point but the original Guild Wars was full of pop culture references.
It's painfully obvious lemmy is overrun with astroturf. Kamala spam has been oppressive and it's just cringe most of the time. I refuse to believe that most of the real users here are that cringe. Also, I support Kamala.
Hard to make a generalization from this one asshole who dropped the bag. How many people have been to the caverns and not destroyed the ecosystem?
Lowest common denominator, tragedy of the commons, etc.
This was for 2023 and the job market was hot that year. If you switched jobs you probably got a double digit pay rise, and many people were doing it. That's what drove the number.

The reason capitalism leads to fascism is that inevitably capitalism will lead to untenable inequality. Injustice will be too great to ignore between the rich and the rest. This will lead to populism.
There are two forms of populism. One will seek to rectify the imbalances caused by capitalism. The other will seek to divert blame to minorities. If there were less blacks, immigrants, gays, Jews, etc. etc. then our society would not be in decay. One is much more useful to the Capitalist and so it will ultimately prevail. The capitalist will devote all resources to crushing the leftist populism up to and including directly funding fascism.
“There was not a family relying on me to pay the rent, put food on the table and keep the bills paid by the end of the month,” she added. “But the reality of McDonald’s is that a majority of the folk who are working there today are relying on that income to sustain a household and a family.”
