Shitpost was supposed to be the "anything goes" meme community, and a bunch of yahoots took that as "Oh we can post lgbtq hate memes here".

"Anything goes" is such a terrible idea in the modern internet, you're always going to get checked for trying it lol.

Could you clarify who was posting? Shitpost wasn't tolerating Nazis?

I guess I can see how that would go poorly for a meme community. That's where they like to congregate.

Always have to link this comic when generational wealth comes up.

Personally I know that I'm one of the ones who lucked out. My family wasn't rich but we didn't struggle. I'd like that to be the minimum experience for everybody.

I don't disagree with the sentiment, but "get a half decent job, do basic planning, and factor in the cost of the home you definitely own" is a massive simplification and a lot of people cannot meet those requirements through no fault of their own.

Cooking at home bumps that up to a 3.

I would say the same myself. They don't do the worst job for music discovery either which is important to me. Amazon Music drove me nuts constantly recommending Cage the Elephant and other well-known (profitable) artists instead of obscure music similar to my tastes.

taxes that go towards schools where the children that I don’t have go to.

The alternative is being surrounded by uneducated people, so this has never bothered me.

I don't take kindly when people attempt to insult me or my friends

They weren't doing that lol.

Listen, I hate cops too, but if you're taking part in and benefitting from modern society, you're gonna have to chip in for that convenience. If you don't like it, live off the grid.

Is true Communism even possible if it's being attempted by flawed humans? Seems like it doesn't matter the economic system so much as the fact that people will ruin anything given enough time.
