I’d argue we’re already there. Once you hit zero it’s not like you zip out of existence. When everyone is poor and has no money, the rich get to hire you and pay you enough to buy their products and keep them comfortable. You’ll never make enough to get out of poverty because it’s designed to keep you there.

Poverty isn’t just about not having money, it’s about never making enough to get out of poverty. When you’re always living paycheck to paycheck, payday loan to payday loan - you’re screwed. The system will never let you out. You’re too profitable in that state to let out.

Think of the boot theory. If I only give you 10 bucks a year, you have to buy the 2 dollar boots every year that last only a year. The moment you made 11 dollars, you could buy the 5 dollar boot that lasts you a decade. The system incentivizes company’s to sell 2 dollar boots cause it makes them more money in the long run, and if the entire world agrees to never pay you more than 10 dollars a year, every company can make that much more money. That’s why your market value is not your fair pay.

The real reason poverty exists is because rich people need a slave class without being directly liable for owning them.

Ah yes, python is psuedocode

Something clicked in my mind when I read the phrase self-righteous suicide and SOAD just popped into my head

Then, we’d have to shift the jokes to which editors can run in emacs.

Do you mean like neomutt, mu4e etc kinds?

BTW I agree with you. The point you actually should have brought up is that the moment someone blurs part of the footage, its entire validity as proof of the actual event goes out the window.

The moment it gets put into an editing software, any number of changes can be made to make any point conceivable.

I think a middle ground approach would be to defacto give access to the footage to the defendants in the case but not the general public.

How often are you supposing that naked people end up on body cam footage?

Try Celeste. There’s a great storyline but you can ignore it if you want. The gameplay speaks for itself
