the maoist uprising against the landlords was the largest and most comprehensive proletarian revolution in history, and led to almost totally-equal redistribution of land among the peasantry

This isn't being out of touch, this is flexing.

He knows he can say whatever he wants and get away with it.

The average freeze-gamer will continue to consume product and pay no attention to such statements.

It’s even a bloody meme among the Pokémon fandom. “You’ll buy it anyway.”

I deadass had to tell myself they’d pull that crap when Violet rolled around. Maybe the anti-gg crowd was right. Gamers may not be dead, but gaming certainly is. I don’t think I’ve played a non “retro” game in about a year except for two games: Hades and Have a nice death. Literally no one has made anything worth playing, especially from the triple A realm.

Ah, they're finally going back to 1800s Oil Baron, "Fuck you, you fucking poors" kinda refreshing.

And we won't even get any more leftists from this, the west is fully brainwashed into fascism and corpo bootlicking.

Oooh, you're a Havard grad who ran with McKinsey before you ran Sony. Yes, tell me more about "that's life".

Right this way to the gui , sir!

[-] VILenin@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago

That’s death!

Telling people to become gigslaves is definitely a good way to not sound greedy lol

[-] LaGG_3@hexbear.net 28 points 2 months ago

In the most generous reading of this, it sounds like he's saying the layoffs are temporary and those effected should just do gig work to bridge the gap. This is obviously how-much-could-it-cost ass shit, because CEOs always get these super cushy severance packages.

"I presume people were paid some kind of a decent severance package and by the time that runs out…Well, you know, that's life."

I really dislike the term "corporate greed". It attributes agency and malice to an nonhuman machine doing what it's designed to do.

go off to find a cheap place to live and go to the beach for a year.

[-] anarchoilluminati@hexbear.net 9 points 2 months ago

I feel like born rich, start a business, and join the military were the first three, then we moved on to the college trap. Next step left is hurry up and starve.

~~STEM or nothing bro.~~

agony-deep not only is STEM low pay but employers are picky, cretinous bastards.

[-] DragonBallZinn@hexbear.net 7 points 2 months ago* (last edited 2 months ago)

Oh yeah, I forgot one more step.

“Lol JK, engineering or nothing bro.” (Which also falls under the same problem as the rest of STEM. But hey, as someone who dropped out of STEM, it’s a bit of a consolation prize that I would have been fucked either way.)
