This is just attention grabbing language for something that really isn’t even a problem for Reddit. The longer recent trend of stunted growth could be cause for concern, but the actual numbers are something like they got 101.6 million unique visitors instead of their projected 103.4. That’s nothing. They’re talking like they’re in free fall. It could be the start of a trend that could be bad for a public company, but realistically, what we’re all hoping to see isnt what this article is actually telling us. Unfortunately.
they would have you watch ads without seatbelts and without air bags.
No, they would require you purchase these because their business can’t sell their products without them, but they’d make you pay a subscription for them to keep working, and when you stop paying the subscription, the car stops turning on until you pay your monthly airbag and seatbelt fee.
So do your hobbies. Why would that ever be something you think I’m railing against? I’m saying, when we do nothing sometimes, it’s a revolutionary act. That obviously does not mean “only ever do nothing.” If you enjoy doing something, do it. I didn’t think that needed to be clarified after an anti-capitalist rant.
Jesus, who’s are people possibly taking this to mean “do nothing or else!”
Don’t let the concept of productivity ruin your desire to relax. I’m pretty sure I said your time is yours, don’t let anyone tell you how to not spend it, especially this amorphous concept of “productivity.”
There’s a pandemic of “productivity” and hustle culture, people are turning their entire lives into ways to make more money. That’s way more sad than doing nothing.
Spending your time “productively” is a capitalist brainwashing tool. They already exploit you in your working hours, five days a week, all day. They came for our off hours with the advent of newer technologies. They came for our third spaces because they implied you were allowed to live your life outside of spending or producing capital. And they’re here, already vying for your small sliver “you” time because that doesn’t churn the gears of this life sucking system.
Fight the fucking system. Do goddamn nothing and enjoy it. Don’t let them guilt you into thinking your life is wasted if you’re not “producing.” Fuck them.
You overestimate the strength of the cognitive dissonance. These people have somehow found a way to overcome the concept of hypocrisy and the consequences for it. They’re impervious to shame and repercussions.
This is them gathering their strength. The more we care about facts and honesty, the more they win. This is kind of the endgame
Famously only one class benefits from productivity, while one generates the productivity. Can you explain what you mean, if you don’t mean capitalistic productivity?
A lot of people have pitched ideas, and this one is my favorite.
Doesn’t rhyme and gets right to the point. This has my vote. Mocks the entire idea of having a cutesy catchphrase. But is a catchphrase in itself. And one that isn’t even catchy. Love it.
