How to distinguish between normal talk about the topic and nazis? I'm confused, it's the first time I hear about this. This meme is ancient as well, although this specific variant makes zero sense to me.

You can afford rent (although it costs about 60%-70% of what you have) mostly, outside of city centres. The rent costs are indeed abysmal though. Main problem is the constant fight of right-wingers (incl. "Christians") and libtards to make exceptions who's eligible for minimum wage and keep the minimum wage as low as possible. With welfare they already managed to get it as low as human rights and our constitution allows, they literally can't reduce it as this would clearly violate human dignity according to our highest courts. So they punch holes in the minimum wage to make sure as many people as possible are stuck at welfare-level. The housing market in that bracket basically collapsed, to quote someone working at a federal agency: "These emergeny vouchers (for housing) aren't worth shit anymore." (Those vouchers, lit. "Dringlichkeitsbescheinigung", were originally meant to be the the last line of defence to prevent people from landing on the street).

We also have a minimum wage, and if it was implemented the way social democrats and greens wanted it it would be fine. Unfortunately we also have "Christian" democrats (think US Republicans from 10 years ago) and Libertarians, who managed to fuck it up so there are quite a few "exceptions" for who can be underpayed below the minimum now. Long-time (>6 months) jobless people for example (they can also be fired just before gaining the "privilege" to receive said minimum, resetting the timer for them). There are more exceptions of course, can't have the "wrong" people get enough money to life from.

The only reason we don't have this shit in more rich countries often is that people receive welfare despite working a full-time job because it doesn't pay properly. In Germany we call this "aufstocken". Basically another way to create wage slavery and redirect money from the state towards the private sector. The US is just very obvious and very loud about everything. Other third world countries indeed don't have it any better.

Going out with my mind filled with funny images isn't the worst thing I can think off, really.

I am. Feel free to talk with people about this who live in old vehicles, on a friends' couch or literally on the streets despite having a "job". Or those who only have proper housing and food by working two or more jobs.

remember the 'workers' were paid in housing, bread, and beer.

That's more than many people will get today from a single job. 💀

So better use a fanless Dyson fan? 🤔

Reminds me of the diy antenna made out of copper wire, an empty CD spool and a single CD on its back. Those antennas could work as far as 1km if there was no obstruction, or 400m through light obstructions. It was awesome.

Context: X11Libre is a fork of X11 aiming at preserving the X Server (fair enough, right?). One of the creators got permanently banned from freedesktop.org for apparently violating the Code of Conduct (no info on that, they just blame Red Hat), see themselves as hunted by both Big Tech and "toxic elements" who "took over the X11 project" They want to "make X great again".

The issue about their highly political README (which they wrote due to the original project "becoming too political", lol) also contains the usual red flags like transphobia. https://github.com/X11Libre/xserver/issues/40
