We are products of our material conditions, yeah, there’s no inherent evilness - it’s a learned behavior.

Which is why I support reeducation and rehabilitation for these hungry ghosts. 👍

Oh I’m not saying they’re like, a different species of human or anything. This is just what being rich does to people.

They never experience that period where they have to settle for less. They always get more, and so they always want more. It’s the way their brains have been trained to expect rewards. Someone like me, who is happy using older stuff and waiting for the prices to come down, has been trained to live this way. Someone like them, who always wants the best and most expensive, was also trained to live that way. They become hungry ghosts because of their lifestyles.

Normal people don’t desire more at all times. They’ll be happy for a while before setting their eyes on the next goal.

These hungry ghosts, though, never experience that period of contentment. That moment of happiness where they achieve what they want and can rest never comes, not even for a second. As soon as they get what they want they already want more. In fact, it’s probably more accurate to say they don’t even have goals. They only want more.

No, actually, normal people can settle. That doesn’t mean they don’t treat themselves “once in a while” or sometimes crave something special or set new goals when they complete one, but they don’t need more more more all the time. They can have periods of contentment. I know I do.

But there are some people who always want more. They never are satisfied, not even for a second. As soon as they get something they want they’re already bored with it and want the next best thing. It’s a hedonic treadmill that gets faster and faster, they’re never happy.

There is no end game. They’re hungry ghosts.

They just want an ever increasing “more”

I don’t like watching videos.

From experience I can tell you - vomiting doesn’t help

Thunder is the sound of angels having sick mid-air anime battles.

I bet they did the math

Did they? Because it seems like everyone else is in a hype bubble and doesn’t give a shit about how much this costs or how much money it makes.

Is that why you think prices went up?

Just call em Amerikkkans.

Gotta learn to roll your K’s

The Euro is just financial imperialism, whereby powerful Eurozone countries get to control the economies of weaker members.

Does it make them money? Or is this a bubble?

Third from the right - are they allowed to call their soda “Real Dr.”? 🤔

Your job isn’t loyal to you, why should you be loyal to your job?

You won’t lift a finger now that the election is over.

tons of comments saying that if you voted Democrat this election, you supported genocide.

Yeah, I believe that too. That isn’t the same as telling people not to vote. If you believe you have to vote for genocide to stop a greater genocide then more power to you, but you aren’t allowed to pretend you didn’t vote for genocide.

I’m just not sure if it stopped because their contracts ended or because the ruble tanked in value.

Maybe you didn’t know this, but the election ended.

I don’t remember anyone actively encouraging others to not vote. I’m pretty sure people would just openly say “I am not voting” and then be forced to defend themselves, but that’s certainly not the same as trying to convince other people to not vote.

Ah I see: A vote for Trump is one vote for Trump, but not voting for Trump is two votes for Trump.

No, actually, people who voted for Trump are worse than people who stayed home.
