  • I still don’t understand what the cons are. Maybe there are some arguments? In my country, a hectare of fertile black soil costs $1,000. Is this an unbearable amount? I’m sure the world is full of such countries.

    And yes, buildings can be built independently. If you buy absolutely everything, then you are not a farmer, but a farm owner. The same capitalsit that half of the comments are against. =)


  • Why is that? there are places in the world where a land costs almost nothing, and you can build a barn yourself. Like… a farmer from the past. =)

    By the way, there are really a lot of holidays, but do you know what a harvest is? When the wheat ripens, you can’t tell it, “Wait, wait, my shift is over.” You collect it around the clock. And if we’re talking about the present past, then you assemble it with your hands, without automation.

    UPD: And then, after standing with a sickle for 9 hours, you get to the house (which you also built yourself), take care of the livestock, have a hearty dinner, smoke a pipe to ease the pain in your whole body, lie down on the bed and instantly fall asleep from fatigue. Then you sleep without dreams, wake up and return to the field. My grandfather led this way of life until his death. I’m sure you wouldn’t like it very much. But in general, as already mentioned, he really did not use the money, except in rare cases. Usually.



  • I don’t argue that she was criticized. I just say that the problem described in the post—protests about games and comparisons with other countries—is irrelevant. In addition, for some reason, the topic starter included “evil capitalists” in the post. Maybe I didn’t describe it very well because I’m using a translator. Personally, I see this literally as a problem of the golden billion. Maslow’s pyramid is just an example.

    Let me explain in more detail. Surely everyone was told as a child what successful future awaits them. How everything will be wonderful. Boundless horizons. Hardly any parent wouldn’t want this for their child. But reality isn’t like that. It doesn’t guarantee not only earnings but even life. Harsh truth. Therefore, all these sufferings in the spirit of: “cursed capitalists are profiting from us, let’s protest more. If something happens, will we protest even more?” seem very funny to me.

    Especially for the USA, because the post was clearly written by someone from there. Guys, capitalists in 1996, if I’m not mistaken, provided your country with a lot of jobs at chicken factories just by giving one country free chicken under monopoly conditions. But luck doesn’t always turn its face.

    So as it was sung in one Russian song:

    We galloped merrily on wooden horses, We marched in war against the foolish adult world. We led an army of songs and toys together, We were very brave children.

    But one day, in every child’s heart, it suddenly became empty, The fairy‑tale thread was torn. We got there, and it turned out there was simply no one to defeat. There are no adults here except us.

    Time ran out, the veil fell, and everything that had so drawn us, that has always been inside us.

    UPD: That’s why I wrote that suicide is almost always the result of unrealistic expectations.


  • And yes, stories like “oh no, I have a loan, and I can’t pay it off, and nobody will hire me, even though all I know how to do is study, and I have a piece of paper” are very funny to me. If you want to make money, you will. By whatever means necessary. Just accept that the world isn’t as you dreamed.

    UPD: and just admit yourself bankrupt. You won’t get a loan anymore, but on the other hand, if you can’t pay it back, that’s not so bad either.





  • Uprising because of lack of games? Seriously? Most people won’t overthrow the power of capitalists because no one has provided a working theory without capitalists. And changing some for others just doesn’t make sense. And this is not about games at all. Moreover, you are not even close to the bottom of Maslow’s pyramid. In my 18 years I couldn’t have something to eat. That is bottom, not live with parents.

    As if a person swinging a sledgehammer at work for 10 hours and then going into their favorite shooter for an hour will immediately go to protests if they don’t have a shooter. Of course not.
