Changed from huge embedded image to archive link by nullius:Addressing here the author of that graphic, who may or may not be “Lunarics”: If you put the same skill and effort into
writing quality posts as you did into that graphic, you’d be swimming in merits. Tell me, did someone pay you? Perhaps someone whose profits are being hurt by the merit system, such as a spammer?
Cui bono?Between the Communist agitprop imagery and the words “Subscribe for the INDUSTRIAL WORKER”, thank you for making clear your political allegiance. Die in a fire, Red scum. Bitcoin shall crush you.
I did not want to offend anyone, I want to show that you need to work hard to reach the top in any job! To whom to stop himself to decide
Seriously? Your graphic depicts a Newbie dead from exhaustion, next to a crowd of Jr. Members who struggle to who hold up all the other ranks above them. Two Jr. Members to the side hold a
Red Flag of the Communist type, with dark, revolutionary looks on their faces. The “subscription” notice at the top says, “Foremost Exponent of Revolutionary Industrial Unionism”. You posted 100% Commie scum agitprop, definitely against the merit system.
I was born in the USSR and I know what communism is and how it was necessary at that time to work to feed the children. And what kind of propaganda was both the USSR and the United States. I'm not for any political system, they are all one type, only the names are different. With ranks that merit simply added more work and all!
Based on the hint from the .ru image hosting link, I was just checking your post history to see if you looked like someone who may have living memories of the Soviet Union.
I do realize that when you grow up with pervasive propaganda, it becomes part of your cultural milieu. The same is seen in Western Europe, the United States—everywhere. People simply do not realize it. When I see an American post some annoying American cultural thing, I take that person’s immersive inculcation into account. Same as for you.
Please accept my apology for being hasty there (and I take back what I said about dying in a fire). And please do realize, that graphic
is classic Communist agitprop, a thing all too popular with Western kids who have no bloody idea what life under the Red Flag is/was really like. In Bitcoinland, as you understand, the systematic denial of private property is bound to raise some ire. My private keys, my money, my freedom!
As for US-USSR being distinct without difference—why yes, I think you’re right. They’re evil twins.
