It's crazy to me how many zombies we have living up here. Like, how fucking stupid do you need to be to completely ignore how shit decades of global conservative politics have been? Or to go on about living your country and being against tyranny while simultaneously simping for the obvious tyrant?
Imagine how much better life would be if the Liberals were our right wing?
My coworker was like, "in your working life you work like 40 years, you probably pay $2 million in taxes. Do you think you're getting your moneys worth? In Canada, you are not incentivised to work, sitting at home you can make more money than working"
I had to swing the conversation back to like, how about we tax the rich instead of attacking each other. I didn't realize how many of my coworkers were right-wing. There were more of them in tech than I thought.
Their logic is so stupid, too. "you pay $2M in 40 years and aren't getting what we pay for, so we should vote to cut taxes so we can get even less - and let's hope they cut it from education and healthcare like usual so when we're old there won't be anybody to take care of us!"
I have no idea how people with such a lack of logical and critical thinking skills end up in tech.
Conservative weren't in power for the last 10 years. Can you explain how the ballooning cost of living is their fault, how did housing prices and rents double in your eyes?
Like this
it's a lie
What do you figure prices did rise by, can it not basically be rounded up its so close?
