It’s always sparkling capitalism if you’re an Atheist.
Shareholders thank you for buying many of their junk with precalculated breaking points though!

Lemmy is the equivalent of your annoying cousin going through a Che Guevara phase: they’re going to spend the most of the holiday mumbling into their chin about “commercialization” and “exploitation”, but you’re nonetheless happy they’re here.

Naah, it’s Pagan. Christians just hijacked it to make it socially acceptable in old Rome.

The tradition of gift giving at Yule predates capitalism and even Christ. So while it’s capitalist today, the tradition can be celebrated in a non capitalist way by giving your loved ones handmade spears and axes.

The family get together could get even more interesting than usual with that many weapons added to the mix.

The only way this post could be more Lemmy is if it mentioned Linux.

You might want to look up the definition of shilling. Seems like there’s a misunderstanding

You dare correct me? Time to take you back to school.

“Shilling” as used in my sentence is in the gerund form. A gerund is the ‘-ing’ form of a verb that functions as a noun such as in the sentence “I like reading”.

In my sentence, “shilling” acts as a noun, referring to the act advocating for privacy.

Please refrain from correcting me in the future
