"But what kind of socialist are you?"
Sir this is a Wendysshitposting community.
This guy penises.
Damn right.
Ha! I'm already doing this. I have an account on a t-shirt vendor site where I upload some low effort anti-capitalism design every week. I dont make much money but I giggle my balls off that people buy it. Like a Che Guevara t-shirt from Hot Topic in the 90s... Some people just dont get irony.
Ive been wearing loose fit Dickies and Vans checkerboard slip ons for about 25 years now.
Being cool as fuck has never gone out of style.
Speaking of strokes... Ill be in my bunk
This has always been my counterpoint for the Nintendo haters when they complain about price. (Although they are a shit company in several other ways) Because when my daughter wants a new switch game if its a top tier Nintendo title its going to be a finished game with zero bugs and zero concern about problematic content for me.
Ive defended the dude before, and before I do let me make it clear I think his personality is "Annoying egomaniac hypebeast douche" but I do respect his hustle from a business perspective.
He is actually a really good producer and I dont mean in terms of actually mixing and producing the music himself, he is more like a movie producer, he has connections, money and a good ear for talent. He buys a beat, calls some people he thinks would be good for the track or would be good on a track together, pays them to do their verses, pays someone to mix it into a complete track and puts it out. The man was Mr Miami when Miami was blowing up, Pitbull was still "Mr 305", he made flashy obnoxious mainstream rap when everyone was wearing Ed Hardy jeans and Marc Ecko watches... right place, right time and he shot his shot.
I mean the man was the child of palestinian immigrantsand not cashed up ones and is now worth an estimated 70 million having created his own dream job. Have a look at his award nominations on his wikipedia... he is an enormous tool, but he isnt untalented.
I mean, this could be what it looks like. It could also be absolutely anything else.
Its really not their fault. Most organisations hold their staff to either brutal efficiency targets or have them on a contract basis getting paid per parcel. I'm VERY LUCKY in that my organisations key metric is "successful deliveries/attempts without complaint" and right behind it is number of parcels delivered per hr. They like a guy who does 20 an hour and 100% success way more than a 30 an hr and 95% success. My bosses love me because I know I'm hourly and I just DO MY JOB. Last time I checked I'm at 99.9%.
It is partially the customers fault. People LOVE the idea of next day free delivery, their parcel being treated with loving care, their delivery instructions being followed to the letter and delivered by someone who takes pride in their job, it drives a lot of business... but its FREE, you think they dont cut corners? Most places hire people who will work their asses off for peanuts, which means a high turnover of people who dont really give a fuck to be able to take on those contracts and still make IF THEY ARE LUCKY $1 off each parcel.
No I call them on their stupidity. I'm a union government employee, I know how hard I am to fire.
"The fact that when we deliver something you ordered, to the address you ordered it to, use your doorbell and your dog goes psycho is not OUR problem."
Bruh I work for a postal service and you should read the complaints.
Knocked too loud, knocked too soft, used the doorbell and it scared me, put my parcel in my mailbox instead of bringing it to the door, delivered my parcel when I was working from home, delivered the parcel to my husband and it was his birthday present, when the postman delivers my parcels my dog barks, I ordered size 12 pants and you delivered size 14...
Anyone who thinks parcel people are stupid... our staff are no dumber than your average customer.
Ive noticed it a lot more on here.
Like there was a thread about real world uses for "A.I" and I said that its perfect for traffic management which triggered someone who went on a huge rant about carcentric cities and how we need to have more public transport and cars arent the answer. Like ok, I dont disagree but thats not really related to the question at all.
Lemmy has a REALLY bad problem with people who dont actually read comments and process them. They skim read the post, see a few keywords and then argue the point that they want to argue regardless of what the original comment was.
If you re-read the comment that you replied to first that there is a community of people who believe absolute bullshit which you deny in your reply to their comment but then admit they do in mine by refering to them as "extremists"
Doctors not taking health complaints of people who are carrying an excess of adipose tissue is a real thing, but so are people who refuse to accept that their weight is the root cause of many of their issues and do body positivity a disservice when they do
And the higher end ones are just GOOD.
Its a similar price to fast food, I can just keep a few in the freezer and I can add some little extras to make them more to my taste or chuck some leftover stuff on them to use it up.
Little bit of garlic powder, some cracked pepper and some chilli flakes...
No theres absolutely people who believe that shit. Same as people who believe that Trump has all the answers, Jews are the problem and flat earth. The "fat acceptance", "body shaming" and "body positivity" movements have legitimate positive roots but have also been co-opted by people who just want their bullshit view to be right.
Take "Healthy at every size" for example. You can have excellent cardiovascular fitness, great bloodwork and your weight isnt the cause of any health maladies but at some point at a certain body fat/muscle ratio (too high or low) is going to start to reduce the probablility of that being the case and people use these edge cases to justify their opinion. Look at Eddie Hall "worlds strongest man" he weighs 355lbs and over 6 foot tall, I havent seen his bloodwork but people will hold him up as an example that you can weigh 350+ but I also bet he doesnt need a scooter to get around wallmart.
There isnt an ideology or behavior on earth that cant be taken to a toxic place.

Dr Mike Isratel is a Dr of exercise science and doesnt chat shit. They make their money pretty transparently, and give honest to god research backed information. Lots of information that can be extracted from Beginners to Advanced and he loves a good dick joke enough for all of his content to feel fun.
