WELL
Or in a civilization that's so safe and comfy that people crave some form of strife and make words mean violence.
Then you get Canada
well, sure, if you're insane and don't realize how good you have it
I think humans cannot stand living in peace for too long

@RooHappeh being pc
anything gos
Humans need conflict. Without it, they'll make their own
Llee!
Ah yes, but I was talking about breadtube type of people
As if lack of food was even issue in west societies
KEK
Aldo!
It will be if the left gets what it wants
the thing is, I don't even think they are wrong in their frustrations or criticism of a system that is
"exploiting" the labour class, but.... they frame it in the stupidest way possible
The idea of humanity being a peaceful society is inherently flawed. Violence as a means of geographical expansion and governance is a requirement for society to flourish. Man can life in harmony with his brethren, albeit within cultural boundaries.
and have bad solutions
All in all, there's little to be gained from lamenting the violent nature of mankind.
right!
The reason working class can even be exploited is because there's actually no shortage of low skill workers
I think Eric Weinstein probably has a fairly reasonable take on it that, a rich elite class have been using immigration to drive wages down and consolidate wealth onto themselves
But we still import them
4Head
Not to mention gain votes using said immigrants
@RooHappeh Must keep the supply flowing
It's normal supply demand stuff
Supply is vast
Also, most people aren't brought up to think of employment as a contractual agreement between two parties, probably part of that is because of cheap labourer alternatives that would do the job in their place if they say no
And there's no demand
And in case we had industry
We outsourced it to China
Where people are glad
People are generally unaware of supply/demand because we take it for granted
That they won't starve
And the moment chinese want more
They will move to india
Etc
It's almost like Capitalism has been lifting millions out of abject poverty
