This is not the flex you think it is

It was good if you wanted to bring a game and your save to a friend’s place to play together.

That never happened to me though because I have no friends.

Boy do I have a story for you.

I tried to order a quesadilla from chipotle. An online exclusive. Turns out online ordering for the location nearest me was broken so I went in and explained that I was unable to order it, and I asked if I can just get one anyway. They flat out said no.

They refused to sell me a cheese quesadilla simply because it wasn’t ordered through their app/site which was broken. I just left and got food somewhere else.

I’ve been boycotting chipotle ever since.

I’m more of a Swiss Army knife. I can do a lot but I’m not that great at any of it.

Give me more reasons to not visit!

I’d argue profit and control are two sides of the same coin

I don’t disagree with anything you said. It is a privileged position to take, and I’m not denying that. This is the real life trolly problem.

I think I’m getting tired of people putting survival over standing up to the system.

Should people that still work at Twitter get a pass for the destruction it’s doing because there are lower level employees that need a paycheck to survive? How about employees at Google that indirectly enable Google to amass data at such a large scale it becomes impossible to have any privacy?

I understand the need to survive. Does a McDonalds worker lose anything by not turning the guy in? Is 50k worth the potential long term gain for society if the rich become fearful?

Maybe after a certain point even those trying to survive should share the blame for the negativity their contributions bring. Where that line is, I’m not sure.

This transaction feels like a bribe to keep the poors in check. “Here’s enough money for a small trailer to live in. Have fun.”
