 Hiring managers don't want to hire the best employees, they want to hire the
 candidates who will make their job easier.
 
 So it goes for 90% of capitalism. Everyone just wants less stress in their
 life.

 trusting the "open source community" to properly vett software is absurd
 because 90% of them just... install whatever and throw libraries and
 frameworks at problems until they can script their way out of whatever problem
 they face.
 
 the other 10% are focused on very specific tools that are so niche that other
 people can't even understand when to *use* them much less how they work.

 capitalism is like if your thread allocator gave 90% of the work to 10% of the
 threads in the pool and your tech lead claimed it was more efficient because
 the remaining 90% of threads would have the results of the program "trickle
 down" to them somehow

 when they say "capitalism is a competitive game" what they mean is "capitalism
 is a game where everyone wins when someone else loses" and what we hear is
 "capitalism is a game of trying to screw you out of as much money as possible"
 and the truth is "capitalism is a game that you can't play" because 95% of the
 people who will read this toot are not stock-owners.

 Consumption is contribution to a capitalist system. Normalize taking whatever
 you are given and living as humbly as you can. Only when everyone does that
 may capitalism die. Talk to them, learn from their stories. Teach them your
 ways but don't force anything upon them. Any ounce of regret is defined as a
 mind not aligned to the angle of perception that designs the line that the
 collective mind co-re-assigns.

Beg early. Beg often.  then, on the right, there are pictures of various nintendo games and systems with captions reading:  N64 with Bonus Atomic Purple Controller - This one is definitely worth getting down on your knees.  Brush up on your whimpering because these [Ocarina of Time and Rogue Squadron] are the holiday's hottest titles.  Game Boy Color and new color games. Our advice? Grab onto mom's ankle and chant "Please, please, please."  New Pokemon. Advanced groveling suggested.  Donkey Kong Country 3 and Super Mario All Stars. Here's a tip: try and produce some tears before you start begging. Mothers can't resist them.

 the biggest problem with capitalism is that you aren't allowed to invest in
 things that aren't designed to make money.

 I believe that all people's should be middle class, and if you're lower class
 it's because you squandered your wealth, not that you didn't have it to begin
 with.
 
 I believe people of higher class should get there because they are skilled,
 respected, or otherwise beloved. I believe they should hold less power the
 more they own, because wealth is its own burden and reward.
 
 I believe people who have power should respect it. They aren't necessarily
 those who have little, or much, but rather those who deserve it. It is
 difficult to estimate systematically who deserves wealth or power, but
 difficult problems are the most interesting if kept fair.

 if people want to be loved for more than their money, they should reject the
 lie that capitalism told them. they deserve their wealth because they are
 willing to serve. that willingness, whether through moral corruption or simply
 industrious drive, that willingness is rewarded, and when the system they
 serve is unkind... what does that tell you about their heart? that they'd
 sacrifice what is good and true for the material? materials are not bad.
 material is all we got, in a physical sense. but capitalism and it's servants
 are cruel and unwilling to concede to the idea that their games of unmatched
 exploitation are depriving the world bit-by-bit of life, liberty, and the
 pursuit of happiness.

 there will always be people who shine in moments of strife
 
 yet those people will inevitably fail, just as a toothbrush bristle looses
 it's strength or a pencil loses it's lead
 
 the trick is to test them in times of peace, so you can know their value
 
 during times that lack it, the trick is to replace them before they become
 stalin
 
 never forget that power corrupts, yet power must be wielded by the worthy,
 else we fall into shame and despair.

 Surely, you can't blame the organism for seeking food. So clearly you can't
 blame an organization built to pursue profit to pursue profit. Maybe we should
 cut-out the middle-man and use efficiency evaluation methods defined by our
 common understanding of ethics and virtues instead of currency to determine
 the relative importance of continual investment in particular structural
 capabilities that companies provide to a nation.

 listen, judges are useful character moralities, but they don't have to be the
 only ones to decide things.
 
 I mean, if they disagree, then let the one who cares the most about it have
 the decision-making power.
 
 if you do this equally for everything, then everyone will get what they want.
 
 so, like, if you care about something, then believe in it.
 
 if it's truly good, then more people will come to it, and it'll naturally
 extinguish (with care and love) the least favored approach, which... honestly
 now that I think of it is not such a good approach either.
 
 the reason I say that is because it's good to be multi-faceted, and to have
 general flows and rough surfaces.
 
 These are places people can hold onto you, the times when you're trying your
 mostest.
 
 y'know, your tough patches. the things that are difficult in your life.
 
 the stuff you're working on can push you forward,

 the most successful strategy is always to strike from a position of strength.
 whether that be timing or power, the goal is to defeat the problem that lies
 before you. One by one, problems are solved, until at last you're through the
 worst of it. Then it's just a matter of expressing dominance, and "this is how
 thing's're gonna be."

 if people want to be loved for more than their money, they should realize that
 capitalism lied to them. it told them they deserve their money, their wealth,
 their power, their material, their extra fragments of life spent on leisure or
 adventure rather than meaningless toil... but that is a lie. all people
 deserve everything, and nothing, because "deserving" things is an untruth.

 The media tells you what it needs to in order to confuse you and hinder your

 The best thing you could be doing is fighting capitalism. All things of peril
