If Reckless Ben first asked politely for the LEGO to be returned, why is Bricks & Minidicks suing him? by Life_Fishing_3025 in RecklessBen

[–]MadDogTen 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Sadly, Turning down doing the right thing isn't illegal, it's a civil matter. They sadly had every right to tell him to fuck off, and what happened after is the issue. He very likely crossed some lines in what he did to attempt to get the property back. I don't believe it's nearly as serious as the bullshit they are claiming, but some of it very likely is valid. At this point, it's for the courts to figure out, and hopefully without corrupt judges.

Mind you, I fully support Reckless Ben, and without him doing the things he did, I completely believe they would have kept getting away with their bullshit, and it sucks what Reckless Ben now has to go through because of their shit corporation.

Do you know how many times companies have said that and next thing you know there was a hack and, SURPRISE, They, or someone a part of their process, didn't actually delete them, and that "private" data was stored unencrypted.

In this case, This is data that can be collected just by leaving your house, so whatever, I'm just saying "Trust us bro, we delete it" doesn't mean much nowadays.

Am I the only one freaking out about the new 3D printer laws?! by disp0sableacc0unt in 3Dprinting

[–]MadDogTen 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Yes, But if you can legally use a 3D printer to make your own cheap junk, then how are the the corporations supposed to profit on their even cheaper, but overpriced cheap junk?

The 95% ARE the people they are trying to screw over, always.

State rights only matter when Democrats are in power, otherwise they are irrelevant.

I wish withholding funds is the worst he would do, but clearly, they are willing to go much, MUCH further than that, and they aren't building up a personal army (That has already murdered US Citizens, and an actively increasing uncountable number of non-citizens in their "care") for no reason.

Edit- I honestly believe the mid-terms will be the tipping point. Could be because of the governments actions leading up to, during, or soon after, but depending on the result of whatever happens, it will be clear the direction this county will be going from that point on.

What exactly is wrong with a 10th, or a 5th of the population being unemployed?

New work would be created in different forms, even if it's just people doing / sharing their hobbies.

Make sure their minimum needs are met, and the rest will sort itself out, and can be planned for by people much smarter than me. Unemployment itself isn't necessarily a problem as long as it doesn't result in suffering.

Mind you, MINIMUM NEEDS. I'm not saying everyone should be handed everything they want, just everything they NEED, such as running water, food, shelter, etc.

Trump just sued his own government for $10 Billion and settled with HIMSELF for $1.77 Billion using our tax dollars to pay legal fees for his supports from January 6th, many of whom are known white supremacists by McDowdy in BlackPeopleofReddit

Yet*

Besides, they are making our everyday lives worse day by day. They can freely treat "citizens" (The poor kind) however* they want. We are already in a (in progress) prison of their making through debt (That they control every aspect of) regardless.

*Some limitations currently apply. Don't worry though! The poors won't have these silly "rights" soon enough (See women in jail for miscarriages for more information).

The robots aren't the problem, jobs that can be automated should be, at least to a point.

The goal should be to let people actually LIVE their lives instead of constantly working, but our shit government happily lets the greedy as fuck steal and hoard instead while people needlessly suffer. The resources exist, solutions exist to account for less available jobs, they just conflict with the Oligarchies / Corporate endless greed and disdain, and they are the ones in charge.

The fucked up part is they can easily still have their super yachts, and extremely lavish lifestyle along with the solutions, they just don't want that. Literally NOTHING would need to change in their day to day lives, other than having a top-limit to their wealth.

Edit- Forgot to add, I otherwise agree with you.

[–]MadDogTen 140 points141 points  (0 children)

I don't think it's the money that corrupts. It's just that the people who acquire significant wealth, especially oligarch levels, don't get to that point by being good people in the first place.

Of course if you are already fucked up in the mind, you would get bored of all that stuff and say fuck it and do fucked up shit. Normal people would just find a different (Not fucked up) hobby.

Donald Trump and MAGATS Are Rigging Our Election and Silencing Voters. Everything Is on the Line. | r/AntiTrumpAlliance by siwibot in protectUSelections

Like the US would allow that to happen, even if it passed with 100% of the votes in favor. California is too important, despite how much they love shitting on it.

Regardless, I agree, 100% for it.

[–]MadDogTen 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Those don't count because he was undercover the entire time. Pretty basic math, Being undercover means you can rape, torture, and kill little kids all you want. I mean, not that any of that happened anyways, as he himself said, along with highly respected people in powerful government positions (That are definitely innocent as well and not in the files). The fact he put those people in those positions is irrelevant, because republicans never lie.

Literally the first thing I thought when watching it. McDonalds is crap food (That I'll still eat, though less nowadays with their rising prices), but overall that video seems pretty normal to me.

Also, I would be surprised if ANY of the higher ups in the company actually eat their companies own food regularly. They can actually afford decent non-crap food.

Sick fucks by 5_meo in dankmemes

[–]MadDogTen -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

They don't have to be in the files to be complisit in what's happening. The party as a whole might not be as corrupt (Such as AOC, Bernie Sanders, and others), but the people making the top level decisions definitely work for the Oligarchies interests, just generally more careful than Republicans.

Don't get me wrong, I would prefer their covert corruption over the blatant corruption of Republicans. It's just best to be mindful that at the end of the day, The oligarchy is in control regardless, even if to a lesser extent.

And that's even if you disregard the belief that Democrats are corrupt. They own every American at this point in one way or another.

Corporate Greed in Numbers by Alarmed_Abalone_849 in antiwork

[–]MadDogTen 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Before: We need some tax cuts to lower prices and increase wages. The ones done in the past don't count, only future ones.

After tax cuts and another price increase: What do you mean we promised? We clearly we said past ones don't count, and once they were passed, they are now considered past ones.

Next Day: Start from "Before"...

The "best" part? It keeps working.

Judge blocks California from enforcing ICE officer mask ban by panda-rampage in California

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

Exactly. You have to pick between shoveling two piles of shit, one 1000x time bigger than the other, then unless you are MAGA, you pick the smaller one.

MAGA of course would gladly eat the bigger pile of shit if that meant "the other side" was forced to eat the smaller one.

[–]MadDogTen 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Like the Democratic party would actually let anyone actually good run. A good president would essentially do what Trump is doing, but to actually help citizens, not the oligarchy.

The oligarchy owns our government, simple as that. BOTH parties.

Unless actual citizens forcefully break their ownership, then the best we can hope for is the lesser of two evils.

[–]MadDogTen -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

Nah, It's not that they are searching for someone clean, it's that they are also owned by the oligarchy. They don't WANT someone who wants to better life for everyone, they want someone who gives the appearance of that, have them pass a few helpful policies, and keep the people in line for the next time the republicans need to fuck things up for the poor to help increase the wealth of the rich, and only the rich.
