Go commit violence due to your feelings of inadequacy and misguided ideology Kyle

Won’t be as easy as you think and will neither make you feel better nor accomplish anything, but at least you’ll be infamous!

(Sad BIGLY)

It's just really easy to identify problems (turns out, its humanity) and very difficult to identify solutions (turns out, humanity fails to be good) so system wise I don't know of any better ones on the market right now. Take note that every user on this messageboard is free to have this discussion and is well fed (some too well fed) in this current system. While we may be fleeced, we are fat and well nourished so our fleece is hi-test.

If that is your position than a revolution as you espouse is utter waste and only causes more death and waste than the status quo.

Best case scenario we try love eachother. Shitbox systems will fall into line. Keep on saying everyone loser deserves to be one and we will all be losers. Make it or break it.

a revolution in america would accelerate the american empire's ongoing collapse, liberating almost the entire global south from the american yoke.

Thats a hilarious statement, considering China's ambitions and current actions in their sphere of influence, including Africa.

America alone being a pile of rubble would only lend relative strength to the nations that have claimed to be our enemies, namely Russia and China, neither of which have been shown to have any more interest than the united states in human rights, whatever those are.

We need talented people going into the jobs that matter instead of trying to be YouTube celebrities or Bitcoin millionaires. 99% of you will never be famous, but you could make a difference. Sadly, you weren’t beaten as boys, and as such never became men. Time to grow up boys, your country and your God needs you

lol too bad, all the physicists that used to invent shit are making dollars developing high frequency trading algorithm for some bank now

And anyone creative got shut out of physics degree because of college math weed out process to only bring psychopaths into the fold (all sciences) so we they can work on population ending viruses and stuff with no moral qualms.

This is a bigger problem than people realize, and it links back to China. First year in the Physics PhD program (top-10 R1 school), 10/15 were Chinese. 11/15 of us passed qualifying exams and got to finish the PhD, and I think 3/11 are on wall street, probably running some NS or BS equations to optimize some 3rd decimal place. The biggest problem in physics; too many of the bright theorists pursue string theory, although the siphoning of talented minds to wall street is a problem as well.

Although I find the normal communist nonsense tired and boring, one sane point the anti-capitalists make is that the majority of the financial services industry is just wasted energy (much like bitcoin mining). Of course, good capitalists make this same point. Wall street is principally middle men siphoning off money from people who produce something of value... can literally replace all advisors with broad market index funds and the world would be fine. The only knowledgeable people who say otherwise have skin in the game.

I understand what you are trying to say, but disagree. Creativity is the unifying trait amongst physicists. It takes substantial imagination to understand the way things are.

If a mathematically challenged student is not creative or tenacious enough to formulate good study habits to master calculus, they are not worthy of the keys to unlocking mother nature's gates of knowledge. The "weed out process" is the only thing between you and collapsed bridges. It should be embraced.
