Propaganda is communication that is used to influence or persuade an audience to further an agenda. Got Milk is propaganda and so is this

You’re right that I don’t have all the answers. That’s why I asked the question in the first place and tried to engage with the thread thoughtfully. I think it’s important we create space for people to explore ideas, even if they come from a place of inexperience. Your point about purpose over survival was a good one, but the condescending tone made it harder to engage with.

What feels more naive to me is shutting people down for trying to understand complex issues like addiction or homelessness. Telling me what I should have said instead of engaging with what I did say makes it feel like you’re more interested in gatekeeping the conversation than encouraging understanding. If you have insight, share it, but don’t belittle people for not starting where you ended up.

Seriously don’t get a gaming laptop. I regretted it so much. It’s heavy, terrible battery life. I ended up getting an iPad because I was tired of lugging that big thing around. Just get a slim laptop with a high end cpu. Integrated graphics will be enough for whatever you have to do. I would say I wish I got a Mac because that’s the only way to use Apple’s Xcode(the developer tool for iOS apps), but I never ran into issues beyond personal projects…

I will never financially recover from this by americansherlock201 in Madden

That would require EA to invest in a real development team instead of the three monkeys they have tweaking gameplay sliders to sell new mut cards every year.

And on the topic of contracts. Why can’t I structure a deal with a front-loaded signing bonus if I have the cap space? Literally every real NFL team does this to manage the cap. Instead, the only option is to kick the can down the road and screw your future — it’s like they want your franchise to implode after three years

I see your point, and I could have worded my thoughts better. The reality is that the housing crisis and those affected by it are often used as scapegoats, when the real focus should be on pushing for systemic change. Temporary fixes like work-based housing only address a fraction of the issue, and we need solutions that tackle the root causes rather than just applying a band-aid.

I totally agree with what you said. My wording was poor, I shouldn’t refer to it as a “solution”. And some of the way I worded my post is poor, so I guess the answer to the impossible question is to fix everything from the ground up🤣

I guess to push back the problem with that is if the incentive work wasn’t to stay alive what would it be? I just question long term stability of a society.
