Paying taxes is only wrong when it goes to a democratically elected government whose purpose is to benefit all citizens. But if it’s paying tithes to the church or tribute to monarchs, then it’s a MORAL DUTY!

Financial obesity is literally capitalism. That’s the disease. Period.

Because it would reflect poor on her, too. It’s like when people don’t report being victims of sexual assault, because they know people will look at them differently forever, doesn’t even have to be that extreme, just imagine being a normal family in a normal neighborhood where everybody knows everyone for decades, and then you find out your husband has a fling with a younger woman. It’s just embarrassing, you know?

You and me and all of us lie all the time about way less embarrassing things, because we don’t want to be seen a certain way, as victims, as having been duped or gullible or even the butt of a joke.

Imagine on that level, where you are married to one of the richest men in the world, and your rollerdex contains thousands of names to some of the most powerful people on the planet, and you “go to the press with it”.

It would change your life forever, the scandal would stain every aspect of your life F O R E V E R.

And he didn’t donate shit without an economic incentive, it’s all a tax writeoff, it’s all a scam. Even that shit he did pumping money into AIDS research as “charity” went into companies where he held stake himself. It’s so fucking vile.

Exactly like gambling addicts. They are blinded by capitalism, because capitalism is nothing but gambling, and not only are these people addicts, the game has completely usurped society itself. Just think about it- what dictates our society? It’s not our values, or ideals, our wishes and wants and dreams, it’s the economy.

The Economy is a fucking golem that has overtaken democracy, we have no say, what The Economy wants always takes precedence, and the only thing The Economy wants is MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE MORE. MORE people, MORE things, MORE money, MORE. You know what else does that? Cancer.

And I don’t believe shit of it. I think all their “donations” to foundations and “charity” are tax scams. I’ve seen so many of these deeply immoral and greedy fucks do this and go on charity drives and I’m not buying any of it, I know these people are just scamming us somehow, they don’t do anything out of the kindness of their hearts and betterment of society, it’s all about money.

The worst part is- they are not the problem per se, the system is. The system creates this, capitalism creates this, it promotes these people to the top sure, but if not them then anybody else willing to sell their souls to the literal antichrist.

Capitalism is a malignant cancer and needs to be excised and chemod or we all die. DIE. Civilization GONE. Humanity GONE. Culture GONE.

It’s us or capitalism.

That’s not the same, in OP’s case it’s about the store outsourcing the work onto the customer while cutting labor costs so some rich fuck can get slightly richer, while not littering is a matter of basic social responsibility, not a labor situation.

Look, I don’t know where you live, your standards, or your money situation, so it’s a tricky ask. For me I drink the cheapest shit because I drink a lot of it, but I recently went to Laos, and they had a beer, like basically the only beer they have, called Beerlao, which is partly made with rice, and it’s fucking FANTASTIC.

If you can find that shit on the shelves, try it out. Though tariffs just hit Laos exports with 50% so, my advice stands- buy the cheapest shit possible and drink a lot of it because what is about to unfold in the world will require you to be drunk or dead to endure it.

Well then I have some very good news to you about your future.

That’s not the same, in OP’s case you’re doing the business’s job for free so some rich fuck can get richer by fucking over both the workers and the customers, while in the other case not littering is basic social responsibility, not labor substitution.

Reminds me of this Bill Burr clip.

"You know what I hate about these corporate chains? You go in there you’re paying for a business, they make you like do half the job now. I don’t get it. Like I walk in there,

- Hey, lemme get a turkey sandwich. Lettuce, tomato, on rye, with mayonnaise.

The guy behind the counter’s like,

- All right, turkey sandwich, lettuce, tomato, on rye.

- And mayonnaise.

- Oh, the mayonnaise is, uuh, right over there.

- Really? Why don’t you, UUH, fucking GO OVER THERE and, UUH, put it on my sandwich?"

(Yeah I just wrote that out. Why? Fuck you I don’t have to explain myself to you.)

The point is that we are being asked as paying customers to perform work which previously employed people to do it for us, strictly out of a profit motive for the store.

They are destroying jobs by shifting the workload onto the customer, so that some chain cunt can marginally increase their already immense wealth while fucking over the workers and the customers.

I don’t enter a store without coming out with beer, an item that needs to be age verified by a cashier. I always have to stand around waiting for one of them to leave the cash register and come over and clear it.

Pisses me off.

Give me my god damned beer so nobody gets hurt.

Well sure, but did you also run a hundred unterminable processes that analyzed your behavioral patterns in real time and fed that information into a surveillance pipeline directly hooked into Microsoft data centers?

Because if not, then what are you even doing with your life?

Great points! Yet, Linux = greased lightning, Windows = sludge. So your great points can go suck off a polar bear.

I save my code as .txt files on my hard drive.

They follow the naming convention “project1”, “project1a”, “project1a1” and so on in consecutive logical order

Many VPN providers provide this functionality.

Try Mullvad VPN, you won’t get more privacy minded OG hackers running a business than they- trust me, I know for a fact.

Trust him bro.

Nah but seriously, search github.

Or ask GPT to do it for you. It’s ok, it’s not cheating.
