  • It’s more that we’ve got a mass media that’s poisoned it’s young people against any kind of social cohesion.

    Don’t get married. Don’t have kids. Don’t waste time with friends. Don’t talk to your parents. Just Hustle. Just Grind. Until you get rich enough to quit your job, retreat into your luxury space, gorge yourself on treats, and die.


  • Kids are seen as a luxury, reserved for the leisure class, or a trap leveraged by evil spouses to take your money.

    Anti-natalism is just the end philosophy of a society that is fully alienated from itself. Any other people in your life is just parasites sucking happiness from your increasingly scarce free time. Your only goal should be Hustle And Grind, until you have enough money to totally self-isolate.









  • young folks today not having enough money to even start a family

    Some of the poorest people are forming the largest families, thanks to the segregated access to contraception tools and abortion services.

    The use of “holiday” rather than “medical debt” and “student debt” leads me to think it’s not about America at all.

    It is an American idea that’s been spread abroad by American media and commercial business.

    Because of wealth hoarding, but by billionaires

    30% of billionaires is American. Another 7% are in the US occupied state of Germany, with Italy, Canada, Taiwan, the UK, and France hosting 3% / 3% / 2% / 2% / 1.5% respectively.

    The American Empire is the source of the Billionaire scourge.



  • Tbf the union busting and wage flattening was Reagan.

    Carter deregulate the trucking industry, the airlines, the railroads, and natural gas prices. This restored profit for corporations but led to mass layoffs for the unionized workers in these industries.

    Volcker was nominated by Carter, the inflation was already there and was something the admin was voted in to do something about.

    The inflation began back under LBJ. He, Nixon, and Ford all experimented with regulation and subsidies and propaganda to curb the wage/price feedback loop.

    Carter was the first to try “degrowth” through a lending squeeze. And it worked… by decoupling wages from GDP.

    The inflation was there regardless

    Inflation was a function of the rebuild of Europe and the post war expansion of the USSR and the Global South.

    Americans were no longer getting foreign imported raw materials at a pittance. Nor were they the only consumers of those foreign imports.
