Don’t forget the “I’m a millionaire and I was on my way to spend a billion dollars on my big business deal when I thought to take some time out from my 26 hour work days to tell you all that the reason other people can’t afford a good retirement plan is because they ALL suck. If you don’t beleive my claims of wealth and their suckyness, then its because you can’t handle reality” comments from a statistically improbable number of people.

It would have happened with people too.

We had to be broken into it and, by it, domesticated over hundreds of years. Now people can’t even imagine any other system possibly “working” (the exacts nature of the not working-ness of other systems is hard to pin down when we’re honest about those things also applying to capitalism).

The origins of the feudal system isn’t up for debate and we know it down to very fine detail. Hell, we can even tell the origins of some wild and obscure economic systems, not just, say, the roman slave economy. However, for some reason, were all expected to beleive capitalism just happened, as if by magic, out of no where.

Well, thats because you can’t teach the origins of capitalism, without it being a criticism of capitalism, and you can’t teach any criticism of capitalism in school either in the UK or the US.

It must be such a good and fair system to have to have its origins hidden.

Owning something isn’t a job, even if you stamp your feet and strop about it really hard. Thats why no definition of the word defines it as a job. Stop making up meanings for words, its pathetic.

Landlord

a person or organization that owns a building or an area of land and is paid by other people for the use of it:

NOT A JOB.

“Unless life is also giving you sugar, your lemonade is going to taste like shit.”

No, owning something, in of itself, isn’t a job. For example, you own the device on which you’re typing you’re utter nonsense. Is you owning your device a job?

Have you ever seen a job vacancy for “landlord”?

No, of course not. Thats why “landlord” isn’t a job.

The worst example is the clean version of Ace hood’s bugatti, you got on an near game trial. Nearly every other word was absent. It was ridiculous.

No, you can’t just make up words either. It’s deliberately misused slang, at best. Even then, I didn’t say it was or wasn’t a word. Please try and keep the sophistry to a minimum. I said it wasn’t a verb as “landlord” isn’t a job and “landlording” isn’t a doing word.

That’s recruitment, not being a landlord. Recruitment is work.

Regardless of what names they may or may not have, owning something, in of itself, isn’t a job.

You’re making this seem a lot harder than it actually is.

Again, you’re wrong. “Landlord” sn’t work.

landlord

a person or organization that owns a room, building, or piece of land that someone else pays rent to use

You can’t just make up you’re own definition of words. A landlord can outsource all of that to a management company and still be a landlord.

Maintenance is work and people should be paid for work. However, the landlord will get paid regardless of who does it. Thats because “landlord” isn’t work which is why “landlording” isn’t a verb.

Its not me who’s wrong, as owning something isn’t work.

Now, they might do some repairs or maintenance but thats actual work and not what they’re paid for.

What they’re paid for is for doing no work and they, like shareholders, are the only people who expect to be paid for doing no work.

Our society is so messed up that they even have people declaring ownership is work, on their behalf.

100% and they should swap jobs too. You hear from Christians all the time “this is the devils work” or “Satan made me do it.”

Conversely, how often do you hear this?

“What, that place? That one their? Yeah, that place is heaven on earth.”

Never

But “hell on earth” we hear all the time. You know why?

Because Satan is busy.

Imagine how much work hed do, if he got to be in charge. “Wanna know what will really piss yahweh off?”

1. they can but they’re so few and far between that they don’t need mentioning. Loads will claim to have been born poor too but experience has left me unable to trust those claims. I even reference the fact that its not literally all off them, so I’m not sure why you needed to mention it again.

2. All landlords, I was very clear about that but people making money through simply being a middle person sucks too. Nothing close to landlords though which is why I didn’t mention them and they aren’t covered by what I said.

3. Ah yes, the old “bitter or a hypocrite” trope. It has to be one or the other, as the amoral people who throw it around can’t comprehend a moral objection to exploitation, usually due to poor empathy and even poorer social skills. The only people who want something for doing no work is landlords and shareholders. Its just astral level projection from people born to wealth, who even try to moralise their explanation by claiming everyone else, not born to their privilege and opportunity, must be lazy.

It turns out, they dont care about anyone being bitter or hypothetical, let alone the morality of just about anything. They just really don’t want people talking about inequality or exploitation.

To me, having to pretend that the comodification of romance is remotely romantic is far more stupid. However, I’d say April fools is definitely second place for most dumb.

We need a wrath of vader movie.

For it to work, he needs to keep his mystery. Like, I don’t want to see him collect his laundry. But basically just him going round the galaxy mercilessly hunting down and murdering the crap out of Jedis.

People extorting money due to the finite nature of land, for the sole reason of having been born with better access to capital.

It’s just making money, due to having money. They didn’t invent anything, they didnt discover and invest in an emerging company. They didn’t do anything innovative or clever. Anyone born to wealth could have done it. Which is why those are, by far and away, the vast majority of landlords.

Even a Conservative, union busting aristocrat like Churchill knew how bad landlordism was and landlords have been hated throughout all of human history. It’s only the current neoliberal plague who’ve attempted to moralise it with rich people worship and bootstrap paradoxes.

Because the rich and powerful know that we wouldn’t be the most productive wage slaves possible, if we did that.

Alcohol closes the mind and kills peoples empathy. Its the perfect drug for capitalists and wage slaves alike.

Pants with pockets?

Bog standard “all purpose seasoning” in mac n cheese. Just elevates the whole thing.
