I’m 14 and this is deep exists over here? Wow
Yeah it seems like, this is some entirely naive view of the world, people tend to forget that they are free to go into the woods and forage food etc, but then they wouldn’t have their phones and pcs to post absolute nonsense on the internet.
Like what does op think people did before “salary” they worked from dawn till dusk on a patch of land trying not to die, before that they foraged and hunted, surviving day to day
we are not medieval peasants anymore though.
hunger is something that has no good reason to exist anymore.
I agree, but that does require that those who can work, do. And also a system that doesn’t center around being greedy.
thats a great goal and i think thats what most lefties here are striving for.
This “curious” always make me think the other person is dumb… Thanks Lemmy
Your reply or the original meme doesn’t propose how to improve society, it’s just stupid ass circlejerking.
Salary can be part of a much better society too.
Sorry, perhaps you prefer the full comic?
You didn’t propose how to improve society to address the original complaint either. You were circlejerking with the other guy about how OP should shut up and people aren’t allowed to voice such complaints because otherwise they’re just edgy 14 year olds.
It’s not a complaint, it’s whinging, that’s different.

What woods are available for foraging that wouldn’t get you arrested for vagrancy? Seems everything is locked down.

I feel like someone would get mad if you built a place, started foraging and planting wheat, maybe hauled in some solar panels, but I don’t know US law.
Actually Hunter Gatherer Tribes spent just around 4 hours a day hunting and gathering. Including food preparation and consumption they spent 40 hours a week wich is less than modern humans (if you count work + cooking)

Of course hunger, famines, illness, suffering and death were frequent occurrences (so I wouldn’t want to switch places), but for most of human history we had enough time and recourse for random shit like socializing, drawing, singing, dancing, sacrifices, worshipping gods and so on.
It’s called hexbear, get with the times.
Edit: not sorry for calling it like I see it. I’m thrilled my message was received and bruised some egos. Try posting image macros of a pig shitting on its own balls to recover from the hurt or something.
This isn’t leftist, this is just sad nagging
time, but no money to live.
money, but no time to live.
Yes. But which one?
Also there is an option C/D if you’re willing to make sacrifices or crush other people.
This is very true. I haven’t ever been the “Crush other people” type but I have sacrificed some things to live a very particular way that is one of the few ways I imagine would work for me to live. It makes me so sad and angry that this is the system we’ve put in place, and how it subjugates the whole world.
A sad truth is that you can do anything, but you must sacrifice things. I could to x but have to sacrifice being a spouse. I could make hella money, but I’d have to abandon my family/kids. I could do whatever but need to move across the country. Opportunity is there but most people aren’t willing to pay the price. And that’s fair.

My job is my dream, and I genuinely enjoy it. Even if I won the lottery I’d still work. I often joke that my job is my “favorite videogame” - it just scratches that itch.
I’m a Microsoft 365 admin. It helps that i have a super flexible schedule, so I can work around my life instead of vice-versa.
