dank memes

Rules:

  1. All posts must be memes and follow a general meme setup.

  2. No unedited webcomics.

  3. Someone saying something funny or cringe on twitter/tumblr/reddit/etc. is not a meme. Post that stuff in /c/slop

  4. Va*sh posting is haram and will be removed.

  5. Follow the code of conduct.

  6. Tag OC at the end of your title and we'll probably pin it for a while if we see it.

  7. Recent reposts might be removed.

  8. Tagging OC with the hexbear watermark is praxis.

  9. No anti-natalism memes. See: Eco-fascism Primer

Cute Russian comic. The home of the official English version is here if anyone wants to skip ahead (or support them): https://boosty.to/gabiconomics-en

Payment in kind (or, in this context, salary in kind) is a form of wage compensation where workers receive goods, services, or other property instead of money. This method has historically been used in agriculture, household service, and early industrial settings, where employers might provide food, housing, clothing, or other necessities as part of a worker’s compensation. In the broader sense, payment in kind also refers to other business repayments or compensations (interest, debt etc.) using things other than cash: goods, services, or even further securities like additional debt.

Payment in kind is yet another practice that makes sense from an efficiency standpoint, and should be a good option - The workplace gets cheaper goods in volume, and distributes themselves, that's a time and labor saver.

But under Capitalism it's just a halfway house that leave you inured, dependent, and much more exploitable until you're a slave in a company town.

Fucking Falke. Not just a scab but needs to kill the cop in his head.

Yeah she's consistently used for this, would be nice if they spread some of the flaws out across other characters instead of lumping Falke with it entirely but perhaps eventually she'll do something sincerely awful and it'll be completely unsurprising.
