  • the poor tend to be less educated

    Education being free or not depends on the specific government and its policies of a sovereign country. Education may not be free in your country, in which case yes poor people have less access if they have less money to afford it.

    You generalizing your experience in your country to the entire world, though, speaks to your bias and lack of education, which is quite ironic. It also speaks to your willingness to accept the status quo rather than try to undermine it and fight for something better for everyone.

    If you’re on Lemmy, you’re likely not rich, and so you’re acting against your own interest. We as a proletariat could achieve so much if we were willing to put aside our differences, aim towards the removal of rich twats from power, and install systems and policies that benefit us, not them.

    Instead, you’re propagating a lie with undertones that only rich people have the curiosity to learn about the world around them - as if they were born with that capability while the rest of us weren’t - all while failing to recognize that immediate needs have to be met first before people think about pursuing higher goals.

    Have a down vote.




  • It’s something we already know, and it’s said often enough that it’s common knowledge.

    Ok, capitalism is the root of most if not all of the evil in today’s Western society, and that we’d all be better off without it.

    I see this point of view expressed on Lemmy quite frequently.

    Should I not share that even though it’s been shared 10s, 100s, 1000s of times before? Do I as a participant in society have the freedom to voice what I believe, regardless of whether it’s a majority or minority position?

    Seems like you’re advocating for silencing free speech, which is idiotic.
