My problem here is not that the doctor makes more money than a trash collector. My problem is that people immediately start kicking down the ladder to prevent others from getting better pay and what not. Often they say it's because things like collecting trash are low skilled jobs and that therefore they need to get the bare minimum etc. Until the trash collectors strike and their bag of plastic shit doesn't het picked up for a week.
The problem is putting the blame on others as people so often tend to do.
Same with people saying they don't want trash collectors to earn the same amount of money as a doctor or whatever high paying job. Why the fuck do you care.
It's not that I disagree entirely with him but sometimes socialists can be a bit sour just for the sake of it. NYE is silly and to some degree it may be a bit commercialized but I had a great time with family and friends yesterday, sharing some traditional food and drinks, laughing, thinking about the past year and the future year. It was fun.
You too. I saw the news yesterday and it said that some trees are blossoming already thanks to an abnormally warm winter over here, so it could even be hay fever lol. Climate change, global pandemics, war, who knows what will end us eventually.
Covid and all the things surrounding it seem to have had a dramatic effect on my immune system. I never got sick or the cold but from 2021 onwards it seems that every little virus gets me. I have been sick on and off for the past few weeks.
I'm kidding. It's mostly campaignjng stuff for upcoming elections. It's not too bad but I'm busy with work so I don't have the energy for it. Plus our action group is kind of quiet lately so I don't have that much interaction with other members, and that has a negative effect on my motivation.
Looking at those countries it might be just strategic positions. Vietnam and the DPRK border China to the north and Yemen is bordering Saudi Arabia. It makes sense to not place your puppets in between two (semi) hostile forces.
I seem to be lacking the motivation to do party work lately. I don't know if it's because of the things the party asks us to do or because of personal issues.
