That’s a very complex question that depends on many socioeconomic factors. But the answer is probably porn.
lol, first of all, gross.
second of all, there is enough porn to last any average coomer a lifetime.
Police
Most of the “riots” people have complained about in the past 5 years have been directly caused by police existing in the way that it does. I can’t deny that police serve as a deterrent for some people regarding some things, but I don’t think I’d live much differently. I’d probably shoplift from big box stores occasionally, but not out of greed. It’s about taking money, not making money. If everybody stole a can of food from Walmart every day to give to the hungry, there would be no more hungry and Walmart would still make billions.
That’s absurd. 250 million weekly visitors stealing a $1 item per visit would amount to $13B per year in losses, approximately equal to Walmart’s annual net income. They would love to raise prices to compensate (2% should do it) but then they would lose the equivalent in sales to competitors like Amazon that don’t face as much risk from theft losses.
False. Walmart makes about $600 BILLION per year.
Idk where you found the $13B figure, since that’s less than the amount they made OVER the previous year’s earnings.
I know what you’re thinking: “but that’s revenue, not profit!” Okay sure, and let’s not even address what qualifies as a “loss” for a massive business like Walmart because I don’t even need to get into that to make my point. Still, they profited nearly $150B in 2022, source is the same link but lower on the page.
Walmart makes over $250k per employee, and nearly 15k of those employees are on food stamps, which means that our tax dollars are being used to subsidize their exploited labor force to make them 12-figure profits.
So yeah, I think we’re kinda sorta morally obligated to steal from them in order to feed the hungry that they are responsible for making hungry in the first fucking place.
The Internet.
That’d remove the circuses from our bread and circuses… and some of us are out of bread
Just wait until Google implements Web Environment Integrity.
We should already be in the streets and we’re not.
I just wish everyone would switch to Firefox.
It is because Chrome has a monopoly, is close enough to monopoly.
While I can see the plus side of being able to identify bots, I don’t think the WEI is the right way to do it, and Google definitely isn’t the right company to be handling it
Plus how do you spot the difference between a good bot and a bad bot? Web crawlers from search engines are for example inherently good, so they should still be able to operate, but if it is easy to register a good bot in WEI, it is also easy to register a bad bot. If it is hard to register a good bot, then you’re effectively gatekeeping the automated part of the internet (something that actually might be Google’s intention).
I was thinking the same thing about Google wanting their bots to be the only ones allowed to crawl and index the internet.
but how are we supposed to organize gathering times and places to start rioting? on the paper?
Carrier pigeon.
Bridgefy
From their site:
‘Bridgefy is a free messaging app that works without the Internet. Perfect for natural disasters, large events, and at school!’
It works over Bluetooth, and lets you send messages to other users without needing an internet connection. I haven’t used it yet, but the app looks straightforward enough :)
Railroading. Not the next day, but probs pretty quick. There’s a reason Biden nipped the railroad strike in the bud, and my theory as to why he’s trying to build up the “pro-union” image again before the election - he really screwed labor in that move.
Maybe you missed the part where he went back and fulfilled that promise to get the railroad workers sick days.

He got them a few and far far less than they asked for.
But he did go the extra mile. Credit where due. Tfg would have thrown towels at them.
