stock ownership need to have an expiration date. Sure he did work to reclaim the gains of these shares, but at a certain point these stocks need to be relinquished and shared among the real contributors of the company so they could also get a taste of their work. You can't keep leeching off of people like this all the time, or whats the point of having kids and procreation overall ? Even 1 billion$ isn't much to make a globe changing endeavour like space travel, but its too much that if he chose to keep having coke injected directly into his body for the rest of his life he would still have money left. The mere existence of this person is just a nuisance, like many anonymous others

he racks such wealth because he is a shareholder who leeches off of the effort of 1000s of people like you that do actual honest work.

Maybe i am wrong then. Also probably funded by imperialists. Politicians are pointless and will never fight corporate owners for the people. The middle man need to be cut and power should be controlled by the people directly. Retirees were already erased long time ago.

Shocking reality sometimes. Personally i got disappointed when i tried to look for engagement in the wrong places, sometimes you need to 'feel' the people out and see if your interests fit them or not, or you can try to find a middleground between you and them, maybe this sound too 'incel' from me but sometimes internet is the best place to find like-minded people, all while keeping real life in mind. As proven above, i keep using an unpopular app among lemmies, but i dont really take the sentiment to heart: i try to pick the jewel from the garbage, and then share it with my favourite people, i get confirmation, then i profit! i even use trash apps like tiktok and Zuccapp but luckely i could hide behind a DNS if i dont want to be tracked, then i freeze those apps when i am done. The internet now is more addictive than ever, i hope no one get caught into it much. So you are handling this as it should ^^

meh, i doubt so. The french has this Zemmour dude that keep bringing this up all the time, i hope they see through it too. For immigrants, France is just a transit zone.

Lemmy has good quality content but also not as addictive as other platforms. Also the audience is maybe more mature, techy and less artsy. You should still keep posting though, your posts will be recognized years later in the future. Luckely the internet doesn't forget.

As we reach the end of our Christmas reality check, the cynical contradictions of Christmas stand glaringly exposed. Despite its image as a season of joy and giving, Christmas in its current form is fraught with issues that extend far beyond its religious and cultural roots. The holiday's deeply ingrained consumerism not only exacerbates economic disparities but also contributes to environmental degradation on a massive scale. Beyond the tangible impacts, Christmas exerts a considerable psychological toll, amplifying stress, loneliness, and mental health challenges. The physical health of individuals and the strain on public health systems can't be ignored either, with marked increases in health emergencies and lifestyle-related ailments during this period.

As a rail operator u get sued to oblivion for chopping a cat, but on the other side thousands of bird flocks are killed to avoid costly bird strikes. Also airplane is gOoD since flight crew is nice enough to let you in their cabin and wave your sweet 🥺🥺 mom goodbye. how touching! /s

also train defects gets overly publicized while flight and TSA misshaps aren't getting enough coverage (+ the special treatement of the enslaved luggage crew for suitcases, whom i can't blame for their anger really)
