Not sure about that but there was a study during WWII – in Britain, I believe – that showed a negative correlation between hours/productivity. Essentially, once you push workers past 40hrs week, they don’t really produce any more than they would if their hours were capped. Exhaustion, hunger, thirst, physical accidents, mistakes, all adds up across a workforce so the returns diminish quite quickly.

Is that because it became harder to consume or because workers worked less hard?

I mean, public news is public news and you have the internet at your fingertips.

I’m talking about Zelensky clapping for a Waffen SS soldier last week in the Canadian Parliament.

Right. Sus, like I said. You can’t trust people willing to use their authority to protect kids.

Although, when it’s put like that, it seems people are also sus who want to or would use their authority to force users to accept the risk of seeing porn and gore by allowing NSFW communities. You know. They could always go somewhere else that already allows it but no they’ve got to cry that they want it here or there, a place they already don’t like and don’t want to visit.

I have a feeling everyone involved in those equations would disagree.

Censorship is certainly the kind of thing that drove people away from dotworld for preemptively defederating from Hexbear by fiat.

You should read some communist literature before pronouncing about it.

Historically, who funded fascists and who fought them?

Other than, you know, the millions and millions and millions of them organised in parties throughout the world.

That’s right, not wanting to have SFW communities interrupted by porn and gore is sus.

And swoop in to buy all the assets of soon-to-be bankrupt small-business owners. Big capital does not give a single fuck about who it cannibalises and it will come for those who sing the praises of capitalism as much as those who hate it.

He’s in luck. The [b]ankers started trying to make it happen earlier this year: https://www.theguardian.com/business/grogonomics/2023/feb/09/the-reserve-bank-wants-unemployment-to-rise-it-should-be-careful-what-it-wishes-for
