You have to go further than that. A huge population only cares about itself and has made it a part of their identity. Those who have it well don’t have to think about those without: drive to or work from home, live and socialize on internet platforms that isolate themselves from the plight of those with less. They can order everything online and have it delivered to their door - they have no clue and depending on how separated they are from those struggling, they may just say, “those people just aren’t working hard enough,” or some similar line of thinking. It’s not hopeless, but we need far more progress in the US, especially with wage inequality and affordable living/homes. Jeff Bazos is allowed to help buy up single family homes so the rich can rent them out…it makes me so angry and sad.

Next your going to tell us that the education system is ausgezeichnet and doesn’t leave most students financially crippled. The nerve of some people. Now if you’ll excuse me, I need to go study up on which wealthy hyper-geriatric politician is going to represent my interests!

PS: I totally didn’t have to google translation for those words because of my superior American education!

I’m waiting for an Aussie to enter the chat…

Honestly, that’s fine - Lemmy is now a known alternative and best of all, has time to grow more naturally and be better situated for the next eventual migration (I’m a Reddit migrant myself).

Trolls

Plz, plz watch Matrix before or after Tron - it’ll blow your mind 🤯

I actually love both movies and the manga goes very deep, but I read somewhere in the thread that he was looking for series and not so much movies.

If you love GitS, I recommend Patlabor movies (though the 3rd isn’t very good), if you haven’t already seen them.
