Remember kids, the US government would absolutely never explicitly kidnap and traffick thousands of children for the sole purpose of sexual favors and blackmail. They’re the good guys.

  • The problem is those relying on tips that are successful will not see the problem until they’re too old to be taken seriously by the hit new generation that replaced them. Sure, the ideal solution is the workers wake up, but they have no material reason to if a majority of them are successful specifically due to that discrimination.

    It’s a microcosm of greater oppression dynamics, one that in order to self improve would require those benefiting to take the side of those being oppressed, only that’s not likely as even moreso than large oppressive systems, those benefiting have absolutely no motivation to improve until they are no longer favored and thus are powerless.

    Therefore the solution has to come from the consumer of the services. There are plenty of places to eat that don’t require tips, and only old people and the extremely rich go to bars, simply choose better. Yes those currently working will suffer like those they push out of the industry for being too black or too ugly, but they can always model or strip or learn a different skill.


  • In order to stay very long in any alphabet agency you basically have to be loyal above all else. They’re not looking for the best people, the folks take of he FBI hiring the best hackers or the CIA the best cryptographers is mostly just that; they do go for the best, but would rather have someone unwaveringly loyal even if they’re mediocre.

    If you even seem like you’re going partially Snowden, you’ll be isolated, your work triple checked, followed and stalked, etc until you’re either in solitary or you quit.

    Also, Trump aligns with a shocking amount of alphabet goals. But that’s a theory for another time in a different instance.


  • If you continue to tip you’re perpetuating a system of sexism, racism, and classism that ultimately harms everyone involved including yourself, as the quality of worker will go down as tipping does not favor quality of work, just attractiveness.

    Ideally, you would just not interact with racist, sexist, and classist businesses that allow tipping. There are restaurants that discourage or outright stated not to tip the staff, and I’m sure there’s bars that have adopted the same by now. If there’s not any around you, go without.

    If you’re not dressing as a flapper what are you even doing with your life. Get with the times, it’s never been more acceptable to be a cute little flapper regardless of gender. I will die on this hill, or by a novel strain of influenza that gets blamed on an unrelated country, either way we’re going full rip-roaring 20s doll.

    Because the US government declared it the measure of economic health, despite it’s inventor specifically stating that it’s not a good measure of economic health.

    If GDP line go up, then the government and all other people with a vested interest in not helping others can say “well the economy is great, look at the GDP, it must be your fault specifically that you’re suffering, guess you just can’t cut it and should die or become my slave until you learn how to be useful.”

    Since there’s no

    national popular voice to fight back on this

    Yes, both sides are the same, California just recently voted to keep slavery and has some of the most Draconian anti homeless measures in the country ::: there’s no real pushback and even those vulnerable will repeat the lie and see themselves as unworthy of help.
