So, do you think all content and books should be allowed to be viewed by young children then?

Maybe. Im also for higher wages. But NOT when its forced or the wages dont reflect the skill level of the work. The idea is that you should improve your skill set so you'll be more valuable to the job market. Continuing education, college, trade schools, whatever. Thats how we all did it. But, newer generations seem to think that Starbucks or McDonalds is supposed to provide enough income for a nice suburban house, Beemer, etc. Doesnt work that way. Those are temp jobs for teens and retirees.

Where is the outrage from the left then? They usually hate the military and spending any money on it. Oh wait… this is being funded by corrupt Joe. It’s OK then. My bad.

Great. Already overpriced, shit coffee will now double in price so purple haired college grads with degrees in gender studies can be overpaid. This just in: jobs like Starbucks weren’t meant to be the end all in life. You’re supposed to better yourself so you’re worth more on the job market and get paid more for natural reasons. Best of luck with all of this.

Relax. Why are you so angry?

[–] TheMage@lemmy.ml 2 points 1 year ago

If some kooky greenies dislike it then it must be a good thing.

Arguing in good faith? You mean fanning the flames of the "victim" mentality. Thats fine. You choose to be a victim or take control of your life. Thats it.

They have a "systemic" culture problem too that only they can fix. There isnt a Govt. program for that though. It has to come from within. There are success stories coming from poorer communities which means it CAN be done. Millions of people from all walks have escaped poverty and while they may not all end up at Harvard, they've done quite well for themselves & didnt use some "fake" merit system to get there. Lifes not fair and wealthy people always have advantages. Its not a race thing either. Rich black people's kids are better off than poor or middle class white kids too. Thats life. Put effort in and sacrifice a bit. Then, you reap the rewards.

This country has more opportunities than anywhere to make something of yourself. Color is irrelevant and only used as a "victim" ploy by politicians.

Oh no, more drag queen shows, left wing propaganda and white guilt BS. Poor kids.

Good. Using race to determine admissions eligibility is, well, racist. Sorry, facts. If it’s not 100% merit based then it’s a compete sham. Using race for anything is simply wrong and goes against the very idea of NOT judging someone by their race. Can’t believe it took this long. Now, get rid of affirmative action in job hiring, promotions and everything else.

This article is just a heavily slanted opinion. Oh and there is no reason to go to an Ivy League school anyways. A local community college or state school is just fine. Or, better yet, try a trade school And make great money with union benefits. Zero debt. No wasted time taking pointless classes.

Right. Massive piss away of taxpayer money. This whole thing is a total sham. Biden and Zalensky are best buds now. How wealthy is Zalensky now? Is he on the Forbes list yet?
