2. All posts should contain a source (url) that is as reliable and unbiased as possible and must only contain one link.
Obvious right or left wing sources will be removed at the mods discretion. We have an actively updated blocklist, which you can see here: https://lemmy.world/post/2246130 if you feel like any website is missing, contact the mods.

Misinformation / propaganda is strictly prohibited. Any comment or post containing or linking to misinformation will be removed. If you feel that your post has been removed in error, credible sources must be provided.

MODERATORS
No, you replied to my post about people who can't afford both rent and food, whoch was preceeded by comments about how everyone has a job with a 401k whiach was proceeded by a comment about not having any extra money to invest after loving expenses.
Surr, most people should invest, but we were originally talking about how not everyone can do that and nobody listened because they assumed everyone has easy access to retirement investment options through their jobs and extra money to do so.
Go back and read the actual posts.
I responded to you obnoxiously claiming that you have to pay something (in your case, a bot) to do it for you.
I explicitly started my post with "you don't have to most someone to do it" to make it clear what my argument is about.
I'm sorry it wasn't clear. I'll try to do better in the future. Could you give me a pointer?
Provide the quote where I said that.
My bad. I translated that as you saying you "just need a bot to spend" but now see it was just a typo, and the meaning still should have been clear to me.
Seems weird that you focused on that and not the proceeding part about not being able to afford both rent and food. Why would a bot even be able to solve a situation where they can't afford things in the first place?
I apparently fixed it since I see "just need to not spend" and don't remember fixing it. Probably a delay in federation.
