- friend_and_foe 3y agoNeither is working for a multi billion dollar multinational tech firm designing ways to spy on users, get them addicted and manipulate their worldviews, but that doesn't stop most of the people who do from fantasizing and larping.
- bawolff 3y agoIdk, having a day job so you can fully engage in your passions without having to compromise the thing your passionate about for commercial concerns, while maybe not ideal seems at least consistent with the ideals of punk.
- friend_and_foe 3y agoHaving a day job is not the issue. There are plenty of day jobs where you don't have to sell out your supposed principles to pay the bills so you can spray graffiti at night. Have you seen what's happening around us? The effect of these day jobs are the thing they're supposedly fighting. They're the ones making the world worse while they call themselves the resistance. I just hope the money is worth it.
