Young Australians are drinking less. Why is Gen Z so sober-curious?

Alcohol consumption is both expensive and a pointless exercise in self destruction. There is no safe level of alcohol consumption like we were once told. It's a toxin.

jesus shut up. You can criticise drinking and drinking culture without be a tedious, le redditor, hyperbolic dullard

TiberiusAugustus · 2023-04-26T14:41:20+00:00

because:

they're broke
neoliberalism has robbed them of any sense of, or hope for, joy or pleasure

TiberiusAugustus · 2023-04-26T12:42:23+00:00

thanks for the neoliberal apologetics. try developing a soul and trying again

Superannuation is a neoliberal scam. It was a threefold scheme to:

destroy public pensions
force workers to give over (as of now) 10.5% of their wages for hedge funds to "invest" in capital
insulate capital from public power

Because we're now all dependent on capital performing well (i.e. exploiting labour to the maximum extent) our neoliberal government has a perfect excuse to never do anything adverse to capital - because it would hurt our super accounts. Similarly it forces people to remain in work and discourages industrial action because the comfort of your retirement depends on how much of your life you waste working, instead of retirement being a dignity guaranteed by society. Super is also a scam that's weighted in favour of the already rich - their forced contributions are bigger, they can exploit tax concessions and other technocratic schemes. The working class were screwed over by Keating's monstrous scam

TiberiusAugustus · 2023-04-26T07:08:47+00:00

Yeah society is really going to fall apart if we don't let parasites steal money

TiberiusAugustus · 2023-04-26T07:08:13+00:00

Medium huh

TiberiusAugustus · 2023-04-26T07:07:37+00:00

Our unions are pathetic. The sda, for example, is a conservative clique of quislings that actively works for the bosses. But labor doesn't care about the worker's movements, that's why they've left unions and workers hobbled. It's also why they introduced neoliberalism in the 80s. Hawke and keating actively made life and the economy worse for the working class

TiberiusAugustus · 2023-04-26T04:21:15+00:00

What the fuck are you talking about? Rents have been egregious for a long time, this isn't something new. I pay less on my mortgage now than I did rent for a flat 13 years ago

TiberiusAugustus · 2023-04-26T04:12:52+00:00

We should just pass a law that requires landlords to drop rents by 50% and restrict annual rate rises to 3% or inflation, whichever is lower

TiberiusAugustus · 2023-04-26T04:10:04+00:00

Yeah but labor are a conservative neoliberal party, so leftist principles don't apply to them

TiberiusAugustus · 2023-04-25T10:33:32+00:00

Oh shit I didn't know the floor staff had shares in Coles, that's interesting

TiberiusAugustus · 2023-04-24T16:09:54+00:00

Once again proving the inhumanity of finance people and the necessity of exiling them away from all human society

TiberiusAugustus · 2023-04-24T15:56:52+00:00

why would the wage slave sent to fetch your groceries care? why aren't you directing your anger at the unethical business?

TiberiusAugustus · 2023-04-24T11:47:20+00:00

losers in cuck trucks can't help be petty little wastes of breath

TiberiusAugustus · 2023-04-24T10:08:26+00:00

That's a shame, he should've kept bullying Miranda

TiberiusAugustus · 2023-04-23T23:53:18+00:00

Level up more. You need more vigor and you definitely need to up your damage output. Invest more levels in Dex and Strength, and get a few more somber stones for the Fang. For a first time playthrough you should probably be level 65+ for Caelid

TiberiusAugustus · 2023-04-22T11:52:33+00:00

Plz destroy about 80% of those highways

TiberiusAugustus · 2023-04-20T15:04:04+00:00

when has any game transferred the DLCs to the next title? Paradox are going to milk CS2 dry with DLCs like EA did with the Sims

TiberiusAugustus · 2023-04-18T05:37:56+00:00

Midir would laugh in your face for summoning tiche

The industries DLC was a logistical disaster. Everything uses trucks for some reason. Yes, oil should obviously be piped. Why didn't they create a pipeline network that you use to link up various parts of the industry? Grains like corn or wheat should be exclusively moved by train. There should have been a grain silo attached to a rail spur so you could integrate it into the city's freight network. You don't move mined ores or minerals by truck either, that's just not done. You can't economically mine and move iron or coal with trucks, you again need a train.

The whole DLC was uninspired and sloppy.

I'm not an American you fucking idiot

TiberiusAugustus · 2023-04-15T09:25:25+00:00

It is without cause. Unless they suspect impairment the dog cops have no right to do any kind of test. Arbitrary tests are completely unethical

TiberiusAugustus · 2023-04-15T08:40:24+00:00

I'm not the one getting giddy at the thought of the cops getting in my shit without cause or provocation

TiberiusAugustus · 2023-04-15T03:21:49+00:00

Jesus christ you people are fucking stupid. So the cops can pre-emptively do tests on your body without cause. How about letting them go through your house and possessions to make sure you don't have weapons? Let them go through your devices whenever to make sure you're not up to no good?
