Some call it imperialism, the US calls it a good economic quarter.

US government: Wages a never ending war

“Modern problems require modern solutions “

[-] Holzkohlen@feddit.de 3 points 1 year ago

War on terror or the war on drugs?

Why tf landlords living from my paycheck to my paycheck?

[-] ilikekeyboards@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago

Because early bird gets the worm (monopoly over houses) and then beggars can't be choosers

As a landlord, can I ask you what are you doing online? You still have money to pay your Internet bill? That's it! From next month I'm rising the month y'all don't need all this luxuries

[-] SeducingCamel@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Yeah I pay my internet bill too, really justifies the existence of landlords, you're working so hard ticking those rent numbers up

[-] archomrade@midwest.social 9 points 1 year ago

I think OP was being sarcastic

[-] Grimble@hexbear.net 4 points 1 year ago

Where does your rent money come from?

[-] orcrist@lemm.ee 15 points 1 year ago

Yes and no. Fascist governments aren't pointing their guns at big companies.

[-] foggy@lemmy.world 27 points 1 year ago

Idk maybe you're misinterpreting it

People are paycheck to paycheck. We have no recourse.

Landlords are month to month. They'll consume us if they need to make things work.

The banks live bailout to bailout at this point. They'll consume landlords if they need to make things work.

The government lives war to war. They'll consume banks die if they can't find other people that they're stronger than who are playing a similar game with their banks, landlords, and people.

This is why we must consume the rich.

Reverse the cycle! Eat the rich!

Rejoice! Saturnalia is approaching! The eve of the inversion is near! Peasants shall dine as king's on the flesh of the once-royal!

You know, I see this phrase a lot, but not one of you mfers have actually tried. I wanna see you actually do it.

[-] Grimble@hexbear.net 5 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

The point is that either way, the US government has the corporations "life" in its hands. If they go down, the Fortune 500 bailouts stop. That's when the gun goes off.

I like this meme format, Triangle was a great movie.

[-] slazer2au@lemmy.world 18 points 1 year ago

The meme is from person of Interest. A good police procedural from the point of view of a vigilante and his hacker boss.

[-] Izzent@lemmy.world 7 points 1 year ago

Oh sorry, the scene is very similar to one in Triangle.

[-] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago

Are you talking about the movie theater scene? Or a different movie.

[-] Izzent@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

Yes exactly, that's the one!

[-] WarmSoda@lemm.ee 2 points 1 year ago* (last edited 1 year ago)

I love that movie. And it's so under the radar. I've never seen anyone talk about it until recently.

[-] Izzent@lemmy.world 2 points 1 year ago

I love the hidden references to Sisyphus' myth as well.

[-] zoe@infosec.pub 1 points 1 year ago

chess logic. makes all the sense of the world

[-] vacuumflower@lemmy.sdf.org 8 points 1 year ago

Actually makes sense.

[-] black_mouflon@beehaw.org 6 points 1 year ago

So a system that relies on endless growth thought the utiization of finite resources is not sustainable? Who would have thought?
