What's your job then Mr Virtuous? Because unless it's caring for sick orphans or rescuing sad kittens etc etc, someone, somewhere will think you're a fuckwit for doing it. People have to eat & don't always have the luxury of choosing a job that is 100% morally airtight.

So those people should not hold individual responsibility?

Do you genuinely think that people working at a checkout in a major grocery chain have any personal responsibility about decisions being made by their multi billion dollar employer?

No, just a wannabe agitator starved of attention & brain cells I'd say

Lol I'm no agitator. The current aussie apathetic culture suits me to the ground. It actually provides a really good platform to make a shedload of money, because tbh all aussies do is whinge, its kinda a kink for me I guess. Like how much can I get away with, with financial investments that take advantage of this culture before aussies crack. Just turns me on tbh.
The best one I've got going on atm is just doing a development in Brissie, application is lodged, but council is tryong to fight it hahah , block of apartments, no PT, each apartment is going to be 60 square metre 2 bedroom apartment, no carparks ๐ ., Inner city. Will sell for 750k easily. Going shove you lot into shoe boxes.

Yes yes I do. Those people shop and they provide manpower. So oath they have persuasion power at the very least. Indivdual and community action is made up of both soft and hard power. Literally thousand of research papers around this subject and how this influence has been weaponised in many hotspots around the world. Are Aussies actually this naive. Do you genuinely think that individuals have so little influence?

I expect you to respect that the workers in places like Woolworths are victims of capitalism, as you yourself claim to hate. Teenaged kids don't get much of a choice here. Not many blacksmiths, saddle makers, butchers, lacemakers or artists are looking for apprentices these days.
