A Fediverse community for open-ended, thought provoking questions


Rules: (interactive)


1) Be nice and; have funDoxxing, trolling, sealioning, racism, toxicity and dog-whistling are not welcomed in AskLemmy. Remember what your mother said: if you can't say something nice, don't say anything at all. In addition, the site-wide Lemmy.world terms of service also apply here. Please familiarize yourself with them


2) All posts must end with a '?'This is sort of like Jeopardy. Please phrase all post titles in the form of a proper question ending with ?


3) No spamPlease do not flood the community with nonsense. Actual suspected spammers will be banned on site. No astroturfing.


4) NSFW is okay, within reasonJust remember to tag posts with either a content warning or a [NSFW] tag. Overtly sexual posts are not allowed, please direct them to either !asklemmyafterdark@lemmy.world or !asklemmynsfw@lemmynsfw.com. NSFW comments should be restricted to posts tagged [NSFW].


5) This is not a support community.
It is not a place for 'how do I?', type questions. If you have any questions regarding the site itself or would like to report a community, please direct them to Lemmy.world Support or email info@lemmy.world. For other questions check our partnered communities list, or use the search function.


6) No US Politics.

7) No Hit-and-Run questions.
Please don't delete your post for no apparent reason. If you plan on deleting a question later, say so in the post, or if you feel that you have a good reason to remove it, message a mod beforehand. It's not fair to the ones who took their time to answer, and it's not in the spirit of the community.


8) No Bots.
Posts or comments from bots, LLM's, AIs, Neural Networks, Transformers, or Marvin the Paranoid Android are not welcome in AskLemmy. Real humans only please.

I was once talking with one of my classmates and he said that in the future, there will be universal basic income implemented by entire world. I was not convinced at that time and thought he is just being stupid but given the layoffs happening and massive amount of unemployment, I am thinking about this possibility. What do you say?

The rich will probably just try to kill us all before that happens. We should get rid of the wealthy

I think this is way more likely then them giving up a share for ubi.

why do you think culture war propaganda was neccesary to create that divisivness and hate.

[–] Naive@lemmy.world 1 points 3 days ago (1 children)

I think these wars right now are just cover for not giving justice to the victims of Epstein and his friends. This case is so big, even though we have partial documents, that it literally shocked the world and for diverting people minds from that, they are throwing all of these wars.

[–] Tollana1234567@lemmy.today 2 points 2 days ago

yes the wars are purely a distraction.

What do you mean by "get rid of"?

[–] Amuro_eat@lemmy.blahaj.zone 2 points 3 days ago (1 children)

Use context clues or fuck off

... and over the top hostile for absolutely no reason. Have fun playing out murder fantasies and growing old in your parents basement.
