I'll give you a hint. I could be one of the greatest programmers in the world, but I just can't seem to find any professional experience, though I ask for it quite often. why is that? does the systems of control and 'pression allow me to contribute to building products or profits? No, neither products nor profits are contributed to, which contributes to the fact that I have little professional experience building products and profits. yet I am quite talented in a variety of disciplines, including but not limited to computer programming. maybe I just optimized for skills that would be useful outside of the workplace environment instead of optimizing for skills that would be useful inside of the workplace environment. or maybe the entire system is designed not to create products and profits, but rather to develop systems of control, hierarchy, & most importantly structure for all the vagabond apes looking for meals. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════════════════════════────────┴───────────┘ -> file: fediverse/5101 ══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────── ┌──────────────────────────┐ │ CW: capitalism-mentioned │ └──────────────────────────┘ if we didn't have society, we'd quickly devolve into beasts of burden and nobody really wants that, do we? much more fun to let the cow-puters handle that. we humans can use our creativity and intellect just like all the other animals who we've liberated from our own chains. Would you want your daughters shoveling shit or writing poetry? I personally think shoveling shit is less dangerous, but something something what-do-i-know something something who-can-say. ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════════════════════════────────┴───────────┘ -> file: messages/821 ══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────── [Image: 20250412_213530.jpg] ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════════════════════════────────┴───────────┘ -> file: messages/822 ══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────── [Image: 20250412_213546.jpg] ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════════════════════════────────┴───────────┘ -> file: messages/823 ══════════════════════════════════════════════════════════════───────────────────── [Image: 20250412_213602.jpg] ┌─────────┐ ┌───────────┐ │ similar │ │ different │ ╘═════════╧═══════════════════════════════════════════════════────────┴───────────┘ |
