Welcome

We're not The Onion! Not affiliated with them in any way! Not operated by them in any way! All the news here is real!

The Rules

Posts must be:

  1. Links to news stories from...
  2. ...credible sources, with...
  3. ...their original headlines, that...
  4. ...would make people who see the headline think, “That has got to be a story from The Onion, America’s Finest News Source.”

Comments must abide by the server rules for Lemmy.world and generally abstain from trollish, bigoted, or otherwise disruptive behavior that makes this community less fun for everyone.

People want to work if:

  • it is meaningful to them
  • their work is a mean to do something meaningful to them.

If you work to survive, there is no prospect to advance or do something fun/meaningful, then why the fuck should people want to work?

And Ramsey is kidding himself, is work is not that hard. So it's fucking rich coming from someone that peddle his shit to make money.

"want to work"? that's only for actual humans, you are a parasite leaching off the work of the people who are actually productive, the shareholders, and if they all go hide in a secret valley gated community the world will collapse as they invent a perpetomobile outside the "laws of nature" imposed by the government

(everything up to the perpetomobile is actually held beliefs among these people, just the laws of nature being enforced by the government is a bit of a gag)
