• Hey Guest,

    An update on the OFCOM situation: As you know, censorship around the world has been ramping up at an alarming pace. OFCOM, the UK’s communications regulator, has singled out our community, demanding compliance with their Online Safety Act despite our minimal UK presence. This is a blatant overreach, and they have been sending letters pressuring us to comply with their censorship agenda.

    Our platform is already blocked by many UK ISPs, yet they continue their attempts to stifle free speech. Standing up to this kind of regulatory overreach requires lots of resources to maintain our infrastructure and fight back against these unjust demands. If you value our community and want to support us during this time, we would greatly appreciate any and all donations.

There are available to you such things as:

-schools
-places of worship
-work places
-parks
-the roads
-stores
-attractions
-house or visiting other housing places

All of it feels so unsatisfying. It just doesn't scratch the itch. What options are left for those who want experiences but the experiences available aren't good enough?

Yeah, of course society sucks. Society itself is the problem. Those are only meant to be temporary distractions from your primary purpose: to be a slave to the system. It's sad but true. Society doesn't give a shit about you. It only views you as human capital and for your productivity, how much you can produce. You exist to be a cog in the capitalist wheel, and if you can't work, you exist to consume. Either way, they profit off of you. This keeps the capitalist machine running.

A lot of ppl on the forum are here because society sucks and they don't want to be a part of it. We're just cogs to the machines our lives are supposed to be shit because we need to focus most of it to benefit the machine.

Retweet. That's the main reason why I'm on here. I don't want to be a slave to the system

Not sure I understand the question

The solution to problems in America is through entrepreneurship. Something along the lines of how entrepreneurship builds habits in people that grow them as people so that they can actually make a positive impact. Also, the resources it provides.

It's important to recognize that individuals also possess agency and can exert influence within the system through various means, such as activism, entrepreneurship, or advocacy for systemic change. Additionally, alternative economic models and social movements seek to address inequalities and empower individuals to shape their lives and communities in more equitable and sustainable ways.

While capitalism undoubtedly shapes many aspects of modern society, the extent to which individuals feel enslaved or empowered by it can vary depending on their circumstances, beliefs, and opportunities for agency and social change.

We are social creatures and not meant to be alone all of the time, though this is how modern society tends to operate especially with the rise of work from home/remote jobs. A walk in the park or the shops alone is probably nothing special, but with the right person can be a very memorable experience. But I feel like once you've experienced lots of things and gotten older that magic can fade too.

I've thought about it sometimes. I actually really want to know what it was like before mobile phones were a thing... now everyone just has their heads buried in the things...
I hate that I need a car to go anywhere.
Lol that is such an American sounding problem. But rest assured, it's apparently an Australian problem too now lol

My life is 100% better since I don't think about politics and the things I can't change. I just mind my own business.

What do you do when people bring up politics? We can only vote every 2-4 yrs. What a useless privilege. It affects very little.
