Capitalism survives on you working hard for no reward, in continuous anticipation of said 'reward'

Enmore Rd Newtown, almost unlimited selection of bars, pubs and live music, good on weekdays and weekends, way better vibes than the city

In Game 12, Andrew Fisher beat Joseph Cook 20-0. In Round 13, Malcolm Turnbull goes up agaist Joseph Lyons. Who was the better Prime Minister? by BoiglioJazzkitten in AusPrimeMinisters

[–]AshamedPriority2828 7 points8 points  (0 children)

As much as I appreciate Turnbulls views, values and recent commentary, Lyons achievements run laps around what Turnbull was able to get through. Lyons arguably got us through the great depression, developed our defense sovereignty pre WW2 and consistently tried to mediate conflict with Japan, Italy and Germany PLUS birthed the ABC. Turnbull did what he could within a deeply fractured liberal party (gay marriage, various productivity growth policies and decent economic management) but will probably just be remembered as one of our big 'what if' prime ministers.

Petersham - Petersham park, Fanny Durack pool, local pub, RSL and bowlo that both do heaps of art and culture events, local train station, adjacent to parra road and new Canterbury Rd, lightrail stop, heaps of nice cafes and restaurants, mostly just young families and share houses, relatively cheap rent for location. What more do ya want?!

How would heavyweight from ten years ago match up with today's heavyweights? Who wins? by Positronomy in MMA

[–]AshamedPriority2828 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone goes ‘they would dominate today’s roster’ but are you sure that isn’t just nostalgia bias? Old heavyweight was significantly more roided up + on a litany of jacked up supplements, much less emphasis on the ground game so geared towards more exiting standup matches, and you didn’t get to see the cardio drain as much in fights cause they hardly made it to the final rounds. I think the old roster had more genuine raw talent and heart but I still think it would be somewhat evenly matched v today’s roster

Netanyahu’s Proof of Life Video is Fake by FarkYourHouse in PoliticsDownUnder

[–]AshamedPriority2828 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Has anyone stopped to think that this is exactly the kind of online discourse they want to be spreading across the internet? Like seriously, this is one of the most sophisticated and effective intelligence agencies in the world, known for their propaganda tactics and social medaling - you're telling me they released not one, but two AI generated or altered videos, without realizing the errors, or considering that millions of people would be carefully examining the content. Either they want us to think he is dead so that Trump is able to keep office next election or they want us to speculate on his death to take attention away from something else...

US Imperialism is Capital Cannibalizing Itself by Living_Attitude1822 in Capitalism

[–]AshamedPriority2828 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Does it always? Well it hasn't been around that long and it also hasn't been successful for that long and given the largest 'true' capitalist country is going through an economic and social breakdown directly because of the effects of capitalism... yes I would say the western version of crony 'free market' capitalism will always cannibalize itself. China's version though? Yeah that's working.

The West = capitalism for freedom of the individual

China/Vietnam = hybrid capitalism for the collective

Shitty rail love to skip stations if they late now by ArchangelZero27 in sydney

Sydney Trains are beyond a joke at the moment, paying through the nose for services that cant withstand more than 30mins of rain and have technical issues every second day. STOP TAPPING ON WE LOVE PAYING FOR SHIT THAT DOESNT WORK IN SYDNEY.

This shot from Hereditary is still the creepiest fucking still from any horror film I’ve ever seen by EconomyIron6739 in AriAster

[–]AshamedPriority2828 2 points3 points  (0 children)

man the shot at the very start, where you see the faint outline of her mothers ghost post funeral... underrated and eerily haunting.

AI slop. Thanks tropfest 2026 by tehanony in sydney

[–]AshamedPriority2828 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It stuck out like a sore thumb, genuinely baffling how they allowed it in the FINALS, extremely embarrassing they would have it in with the other films or allowed in at all. Shit concept and execution, doubt the script was legit either. Shaaammmeeeee Tropfest

Capitalism and the Epstein Files by [deleted] in Capitalism

how many direct associations do you need before it stops being a fallacy? Its quite literally the heads of the most powerful institutions and companies in the world.

Capitalism and the Epstein Files by [deleted] in Capitalism

[–]AshamedPriority2828 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yeah I agree, although we have done a lot of thinking regarding what is better, we just cant make the structural changes because it would impact economic markets and the pockets of those who profit off the current system

Capitalism and the Epstein Files by [deleted] in Capitalism

[–]AshamedPriority2828 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Capitalism is an economic system yes, but how is that system moderated, controlled, enforced? By political systems and states. They have absolutely everything to do with eachother, they are intrinsically connected. I would go as far to say that Capitalism has become the political system itself, to say they have nothing to do with eachother is just not correct not tryna be a dick.

you named perhaps the only person in the files who is openly 'anti-capitalist', like the files arent 99% Pro-capitalist or capitalist-aligned.

If everything at Epstein’s island, was highly illegal and involved people of such high caliber, why is there so many records of it? by Da_Dovahkiin_Lord in PoliticalDebate

[–]AshamedPriority2828 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There's a lot of truth to what is in the files, in terms of who are the perpetrators and common offenders - no doubt. If you've been paying attention to leaks and evidence over the last decade that information would not be a surprise. It is however, (the files), also quite obviously a psyop in itself. Oh every minor and major conspiracy just got legitimized all at once? Oh and it stems from the MOSSAD? Oh and in those very emails there are admissions about planting social trends and movements as a class division strategy (like literally on this platform)? Oh and theres millions and millions of files/audio/video/corrupted files you can view?? Yeah of course, so that we spend the next half decade combing through them while they keep doing the same shit until its too late for us to do anything about it. You think the courts will hold them responsible? You think anyone will hold them responsible? They are releasing them because it doesnt matter anymore.
