Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

In person they will sometimes say something about how capitalism isn’t working the way it’s supposed to; i.e., it should be working for me because I am the main character of the universe, but because it isn’t, it needs reforms. So long as I can sit atop a pile of treats, nothing else matters.
It’s NoT CAPitalisM, It’S CORpOrATisM!

It's like if you made a society around shooting random people and tried to argue that it's only for shooting bad people. Good. Now explain that to the gun.
