A house may be large or small; as long as the neighboring houses are likewise small, it satisfies all social requirement for a residence. But let there arise next to the little house a palace, and the little house shrinks to a hut. The little house now makes it clear that its inmate has no social position at all to maintain, or but a very insignificant one; and however high it may shoot up in the course of civilization, if the neighboring palace rises in equal or even in greater measure, the occupant of the relatively little house will always find himself more uncomfortable, more dissatisfied, more cramped within his four walls.

An appreciable rise in wages presupposes a rapid growth of productive capital. Rapid growth of productive capital calls forth just as rapid a growth of wealth, of luxury, of social needs and social pleasures. Therefore, although the pleasures of the labourer have increased, the social gratification which they afford has fallen in comparison with the increased pleasures of the capitalist, which are inaccessible to the worker, in comparison with the stage of development of society in general. Our wants and pleasures have their origin in society; we therefore measure them in relation to society; we do not measure them in relation to the objects which serve for their gratification. Since they are of a social nature, they are of a relative nature.

There is something like karma tracking on piefed where if it goes negative I think(?) you get a little badge next to your username warning others or something like that

Hence me using an analogy where the computer also doesn’t actually shut down

Conciousness, what makes you, you, is not your brain functions. A “braindead” person usually still has a functioning part of the brain that regulates heartbeat. But the parts that are required for conciousness are gone.

The point behind the sleep analogy isn’t that everything shuts down as in death, but your conciousness shuts down. It’s more like a computer that has suspended it’s processes to disk (aka hibernated) but then went into low-power mode instead of powering off completely. You can wake it back up and it restart these processes. You could even buy a new computer identical to the old one, copy the hard drive over bit by bit and have the new computer launch all the old processes. Are they then the same processes or different ones? A calculation that was suspended will pick up where it left of after all.

Either you wanna help protect animals or you don’t. Don’t let how others act stop you. Either it’s the moral thing to do or it isn’t.

The fuck-up in questionl letting nazis post their newsletters and then retconning excuses instead of firing said nazi

As long as the nazi’s dead

just look at these two innocent numbers

• 14 a factor of 7 and 2
• 88 a factor of 11 and 2³

Still think there is any malicious intent here??

They didn’t even use the rune though. They didn’t use the sowilo rune ᛋ but the koppa symbol ϟ because it looks more like the sig rune. If they actually meant to use the sowilo rune they would have and also why make a doppelrune? This is nazi shit.

Keine Ahnung aber labern??? Halte deine Katzen drinne und lass sie nicht in die sandkisten und in den sand unter schaukeln kacken. Echt so respektlos und ekelhaft das man auf spielplätzen erstmal alles nach hunde und katzenscheisse absuchen muss

am i supposed to rake and dig through every sandbox before i put my kid to play there to check if someones unsupervised animal took a shit in it? How’s that supposed to work?? “Yeah i know you wanna play but dad’s gotta sift the entire sandbox first it’ll only take half an hour don’t worry.” What if my kid is old enough to go outside on their own?? You people just don’t think before you let the animals you abducted from their parent shit everywhere do you?

Imagine thinking that the problem with catshit on a playground is the parents and not the people that let the animal shit there…

i couldnt care less lol i have 0 respect for english. Don’t let cats run outside dickhead.

It’s a public sandbox with a giant slide in it. And it’s not just the one. Like imagine having to cover up all the sandboxes in the neighborhood with ginormous lids just bc some dingbat doesn’t wanna provide a proper environment for their animal inside…

you’re cats are likely to se shitting and pissing in the sandboxes where our children play. Fuck outdoor cats.

Uh yup gotta drive that alienation of the workers from their work and from eachother.

That’s a good idea!

Now they’re all AI generated slop, not even worth taking a picture of

but also necessary and that’s the beautiful contradiction of capitalism that will cause it’s inevitable downfall
