Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.
Rules:
-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --
-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --
-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --
-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today/ . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --
-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--
-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--
-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --
-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

This is actually worse than it sounds. Not only are new graduates unable to find a job, but they have taken on more college debt than any generation before them. More debt to pay off with a smaller than expected salary also means a lower chance to buy a home. They will be forever stuck in a cycle of paying debts and rent without building any real equity. They were talking about this crisis back when I was in college (late 90s) and it has only gotten worse since. This generation is turbofucked from all ends.
A highly skilled proletarianized group of young people with no future prospects. My, I wonder what will happen when you have nothing to lose but their chains?
Thank you porky for ripping away one of capitalism’s big cliches.
Capitalism is a lazy system and capitalists are lazy. Said it before but the empire isn’t dying, it’s retiring. The working class is suffering because of capitalists being lazy, complacent creatures.
Of course no one will take school seriously when employers have essentially been sleeping on the job. Work hard for what jobs? Employers don’t want to put anyone to work.
I never want to fucking hear a word of “muh efficiency” from the porks.
Yeah, you’re too efficient. Look at all the humans literally going to waste and no porky, you can’t save them for later they need jobs now or they die. All the educations that needed not happen, all the people who didn’t need to be born and all the resources going into raising people who in porky’s infinite wisdom, they have decided they will literally be born just to die. Leaving all those resources used up for nothing.
Efficiency is propaganda and fake, and always was. Socialism is actually efficency, capitalism isnt, because thats not the goal.
