People who are upset about Pikachu talking in the new movie seem to be unaware of what it’s based off of, and what we put up with in the source material…

OMG MY HEART THAT SMILE

I wish A Christmas Carol had an even stronger influence on Christmas tradition and ghosts became a symbol of the holiday

Even better if terrorising the rich into acts of kindness also became a part of Christmas

Millennials are ruining corrupt corporate capitalism by caring about animals

Thought: I do NOT think that 50% of the world’s billionaires should be women. I think there shouldn’t be any billionaires at all.

cranberrybogmummy

So you are saying 0% of the world should be billionaires?

fandomsandfeminism

Yes.

caosdth

Why shouldn’t their be billionaires? That makes no sense.

fandomsandfeminism

Because the existence of billionaires is predicated on the exploitation of human labor and unsustainable environmental harm. That level of wealth hoarding is harmful to economies, as it reduces the amount of money in circulation. No one person, no family, could ever conceivably even SPEND a billion dollars anyway, and it is inherently immoral to accumulate wealth so narrowly while so much of the world lives in abject poverty.

Better then to create a wealth ceiling, a point at which all wealth over a certain point is taxed at or very near 100% to incentivize people to actually spend their money rather than hoard it, stimulating the economy and bettering the lives of far more people. Better even still to create and regulate economic systems that protect workers and the environment in a way that such extreme levels of wealth accumulation aren’t even feasible.

aflawedmind

The problem with this is that it reduces the incentive to actually do fiscally well. What’s the point of starting a business if you can’t become wealthy?

fandomsandfeminism

There is a very real difference between “reasonably wealthy” and A BILLIONAIRE

No one is saying you shouldn’t have a nice house, we are saying that having multiple really, really ridiculously nice houses while your employees are either homeless or at serious risk of becoming homeless is immoral.

I’ll never understand why this concept is hard for people. I think it’s because they can’t actually fathom how much $1 Billion is.

fandomsandfeminism

Seriously.

Let’s say you have a badass job. A great job. You make $100 AN HOUR. You work 10 hours a day ($1000 A DAY), 5 days a week ($5000 a week!!!), every week ($20,000 A MONTH), thats $240,000 Every Year.

It would take you 4,167 years to make a billion dollars.

mercurypoisons

You could buy every expensive thing in the world 5 times over and still have millions of dollars. Billionaires shouldn’t exist when most of their employees are barely living.

I just screamed over this lol

I think the fact that two men on Queer Eye have started dating women who were already in their lives should clue men into the fact that there could be women in their lives that care for them deeply and even romantically, and would date them, if they knew that dating wouldn’t include being their fucking mother and teaching them the basics of taking care of themselves as a grown ass adult.
