Wait until you read about the need for homogenity in the capitalist system. Its not us, its not even them. Its systemic.
meh, I dont think thats accurate. I would say "opportunist" is a better fit. Anticapitalists understand how profit extractions works and have a very different view on society. Mostly one that does not work on .world because of the capitalist propaganda machine running in the west.
You said capitalism and summoned your resident anticapitalist. How can I be of assistance, comrade. :D
We're arguing on the assumption that living in western europe isnt "rich". Even the people living from state welfare with running water are better off then 50% of the planet because they even have clean water.
Notch btw started as a programmer at the age of 18 (wikipedia) and lived in sweden, one of the richest countries in the world. Having the time to learn programming at that age is already a sign of (white) privilege.
There. Is. No. Self. Made. Wealth. Period.
That on the other hand is not saying that notch wasnt successful, he undeniably was. But he is an unethical prick for keeping the money and engaging in debauchery. He does not deserve praise, neither does any rich person. You know who deserves praise? Dr. Ernesto "che" guevara does.
Not inherited is also wrong. Because more than 50% of americans live paycheck to paycheck, one can assume that private schools, elite universities, etc are also inherited wealth.
They dont spawn with billions but they started at the top and just built exploitation empires.
The is no such thing as self made wealth and an insane majprity of it is already being very comfortable and just going full bore.
I'm not saying financial success has nothing to do with capabilities and discipline but surprisingly little.
Or to quote jay gould, who said it before:
I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein’s brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.
Your comment would have made just as much sense without the condescending first sentence. I would have apologized and thanked you for correcting me.
But you chose to be a dick.
Have a nice day.
Oh interesting! What do you use for that and what is the result? Flac or other?
Whats EAC again? I'm always eager to learn what possible show stoppers exist for people.
I think the word you are searching for is accomplice. Every state in the world is an accomplice to this genocide. And every state who delivered weapons to fuel this should immediately hand over their heads of state in that period to den haag for genocide support an imprisonment.
