>a homeless gentlemen from Seattle was paid some hundred of dollars for his face to be used by Valve. There is no trace of who this individual was; he lived under a freeway, in Seattle. He has disappeared without a trace.

If you don't like the homeless, giving them money sounds like a way to solve the problem. Either they fix themselves for the better, or they die of an overdose. Win win.

people are still enraged over the success of UBI programs, including that COVID unemployment relief in america. it proved basically every argument about "handouts" to be total bullshit, people used it on food, utilities, rent, catching up other bills they're not paid enough to keep up on, and *then* leisure. one of the most stressless times in american history

I donate to foodbanks and occasionally give food to homeless people, but yeah never give them money. I was homeless for a period of my life so I understand what they're going through, but my situation was not caused by drugs, therefore I was able to recover.
Still, I don't think addicts should starve to death, so I think food is something good to give them. You gotta be careful though, so many of them run scams asking for baby formula and baby formula is one of the most stolen/resold items which is why there are usually weird locks on them even in nicer stores.

A lot of people have a mentality that things MUST be harder for an arbitrary reason. I live in a formerly communist country so there's entire generations and their descendants with a mentality of "work hard not smart". I tried talking with my family about the concept of "bullshit jobs" at the dinner table once for example and they got incredibly angry at me, didn't let me finish making my point, didn't address any point I made except insulting me. They also consider my sister more successful than me just because she's more educated despite the fact that I make money than her at a job that just involves an English language certificate.

Yeah the reasons people think "let's just give everyone free money and we'll all be rich" is a retarded idea are totally arbitrary. Taxing productive members of society into the ground so you can jack off to japanese cartoons all day does not qualify as "working smart", that's just being a parasite

The best example is the entire country of Wakanda. It's truly fascinating because it shows the way they think the world works. Nothing about the people and their efforts to build nations and develop technology, just magic space rocks. Yes it's fantasy/sci-fi but a shitton of people think just having the right resources matters, see everyone pushing Guns Germs and Steel

It's not just the actors that are the problem you disengenous prick. Black science girl is a horrible cliché trope. And it's not just an act for the people that push it. They sincerely hope to socially engineer their desired utopia through the messaging. The inverse would be if a bunch of white people were cast as an indigenous African tribe. Why not? They're just actors? They don't match all the time? What would be the problem with the message that sends? Or if there was a tv show about an all jewish construction crew or factory workers. And no, I dont mean that the cast is jewish actors (obviously they will be) i mean that the characters are all jews. Why not? What's wrong with depicting jews as the majority in a manual labor setting?

>>744669148
And I DESPISE the cop out they occasionally use about it being "fantasy" or "fiction". Really? Then why can't all the characters just fly and spit fire from their assholes? Oh, they don't because it's rooted in reality? Which one? Cause in this one women simply don't do actual combative roles, and blacks aren't pioneers in scientific fields. Be cool if they were. It's not the case though.

So what's the issue then? You complain that blacks are homeless in real life so what's the issue with "engineering" them away from it towards an actual job?
>Why not? What's wrong with depicting jews as the majority in a manual labor setting?
Nothing, literally no one complains about this, if anything you would get paid by Israel for portraying Jews in a non negative way

It's been nearly half a century since the ol CIA/Truman truffle shuffling leaders, and like 40/30 years since it was a popular move in the middle east. All I'm saying is that I genuinely think African countries aren't very good at this statesmanship thing. Revert back to tribes and go all hutu shootu, its not like you're stopping the resource rape this way it's just getting funnelled into Mr & Ms Duwabotugobu (joint leaders of country don't bother them though)'s account.

Where I live, the drugged up fent zombie archetype of the homeless is essentially non-existent, so it's generally older alcoholic men and some genuinely unfortunate people
The only young homeless guy I've seen around the area is someone who rides the tram all day to nowhere who may be autistic or mentally disturbed in some other manner based on limited glimpses of his behavior

That's annoying but you were implying that the most common socially acceptable middle class careers, that your family seems to have followed and spent 40 hours a week on for years, is a pointless indirect form of welfare, so what did you think the response was going to be? I'd they were dumb enough to not figure any of this out for 20+ years, they're not going to take to it now.
