I don't even want to work, but unfortunately food and shelter cost money. It's all a trade-off. Don't be a founder, but then you have to put up with crazy company politics, feeling…

I don't want to work in a job were activists can cancel me any time because I am a white heterosexual male. For example since they fired James Damore, I would never consider a job …

That's not implied by the existence of a special interest job board. Many companies engage in woke politics and activism. How would you go about filtering them out on all the other…

Why on earth should it not be OK for black people to use the service? And what is so "white" about it? Because black people are supposed to be activists and believe in identity pol…

Ironic, as that is exactly what the unwoke people think about the woke people. They see it as an ideology that you have to "take the knee" to, a ka "follow orders", to be accepted …

People simply prefer to work for companies that are not evil. That's not "doing nothing", that's voting with their feet.

Just because somebody is rich, doesn't imply there are many resources. It's just a debt owed by society, which can also go bankrupt. Jeff Bezos earning another Billion does not imp…

You can use the internet for two more years to learn, THEN go into the wilderness. I would even allow you to take some tools from industrialization, maybe a knife made from steel a…

Very few people can afford to pay other people a living wage. What's your point? You only exhibit the socialist magic thinking again As if there are infinite resources, and the onl…

It's a completely backwards way of thinking. A "business" or "entity" can afford to pay x for service y. If x is too low for you, don't take the job. That's it. It's pure fantasy t…
