Someone posted a follow up elsewhere. He did in fact mean it that way.

It's a bad faith argument and a strawman. They don't actually think it's reasonable for anyone to do that or think the other person is suggesting that. They are setting a person up as a hypocrite despite that obviously being an insufficient and inefficient solution to the housing crisis.

The poor do not have the ability to manipulate mass quantities of people, the rich do. Because they are rich and have the resources and connections to accomplish this. They buy politicians and manipulate to cause the conditions you describe. If they were not rich, they could not do that.

Blaming the poor for being manipulated is bad faith. And victim blaming is not an effective rallying strategy.

I appreciate that they clarified that "bad" employees aren't always bad. I very firmly fit into the fourth category listed (avoids looking for jobs because it's the worst) and would definitely get trapped pretty easily.

In the first case, the subject (object? I always get them confused) is delay (which is singular), and the adjective is "15 minute".

In the second, the thing is "minutes" (plural) modified by "15".

It does. I was looking something up and ran face first into a redacted account that once had the answer I needed. I was very conflicted about it.

Yeah, sorry about that. I did mean the one you were responding to.

Can't tell if bot or posting to the wrong thread...

Yeah going high hasn't exactly been working. Let's give them a (metaphorical) kick in the teeth instead.

I hope their health insurance covers mental care.

Jasmine rice. Makes a huge difference if you like white rice. Tastes like from a restaurant and pleasantly sticky.

But can you tell me anything?

 

Not a sockpuppet.

I was venting over at !goodoffmychest@lemmy.world about Reddit mods being... Reddit mods. On top of having a good version of offmychest that allows people to be angry at the things that are bugging them, orphiebaby went ahead and made a new community to replace the one I was venting about on behalf of my partner.

Cheers to you orphiebaby! This isn't quite the spirit of the sub as I understand it, but you get praise anyway.
