#14 I could put down some spagballs but the meatghetti is sus

#3 Oh, it works, just not the way we were taught it works.
d3jake
#14 From Babish's YouTube channel.
shitheadtookmyname
#3 weird take considering life expectancy is way higher under capitalism, but yeah if you pretend only the USA is capitalist it looks bad
GiantFlyingLabia
#3 it works if you have legitimate and strong guardrails and a society that doesn’t let its underprivileged rot. In other words, not the United States
Hugh4U
#14 Every day we stray further from the light

#2 This! I remember when I was a kid telling my mother that birds must be dinosaurs and getting laughed at.
tarnok
#6 fuck I snort laughed at this one
DillPixels
#29 I cracked up bc I'm literally watching the new episodes when I scrolled to this one
DrewThe3DPrinterGuy
Thanks I borrowed a bunch of these. Happy Cake day!
flashboredom
#3 it worked very well for a specific definition of "worked". The oligarchy is thriving.
stewgru
#16 would it still burn the shit out of your mouth on the first bite?

#16 is it filled with women's jeans

#47 But... But there IS a huge difference between raising all the C notes or lowering all the D notes. Completely changes the scale. And yes, I am fun at parties, you uncivilised swine.
boneroni
I'd argue that the difference between C# and Db is miniscule compared to a 4th, 5th, or a major 7th, so the meme still stands
GoblinTit
#24 This hits. I'm also wearing "I have a gig" and "I have to practice."
d3jake
#3 Not for the general populous, no. It worked to help rich people get richer.

#27 Cannabilize legas

#2 actuallyinthe 50s they still thought they'd fit together, just they didn't really know the mechanism that caused them to separate properly
atrielienz
#3 I mean it's working exactly as the ones profiting from it intend it to work. How long it will continue to do that remains to be seen.
altxatu
Well it’s either formalized capitalism, trade (which is just capitalism in a different way) or I kill you and yours and take your stuff for me and mine. Peace was never an option.

#1 I get this. No one believes that I hear fine, but can't understand what people are telling me.

I mean, I'd be taking it seriously the first time it happened. Around the 20th time, I think I'd just be having fun with it.

#5 I didn't even know that cheese COULD wear pants.
Hamarr
If you haven’t eaten panted cheese you haven’t lived.
ShiftyBat
#47 Now That is how one sensibly chuckles.
Chronomechanist
Hahaha! Right!? Yeah! Music stuff. Heh. Heh heh. So true. I'm one of the cool kids too. I understand. You should probably explain it for those lame guys over there, though. Not me. I get it. Notes.
ShiftyBat
It's the same note, but written in a different key, which can not contain two of the same letter, so sharps and flats are used to raise/lower the tone of the written note to fit the scale. Basically he changed his look but not his tune (and you should dump his clefty ass).
Littledirtybirdyfeet
#2 but wasn't the existence of Pangea theorized in 1912? That would suggest continental drift and tectonic plates
JohnnyLawlessEsq
As early as the late 1600s, people noticed the coastlines of Africa and South America, and continental drift was first formally theorized in the late 1700s. The theory of evolution gave the idea some gas in the late 1800s, but no one had any idea how it would work until the US Navy started mapping every last square inch of the ocean floor in the early 1940s and discovered just how extensive the mid-ocean ridge really was, along with a few other things like the Hawaii/Emperor seamounts.
abc987
This shit sounds just the thing i could watch youtube vid of
whatshenanigans
Theories, discoveries, and findings happen way earlier than they are taught in an elementary school classroom.
EmanNiemThcin
The temporal gap between "Seems like... but how?" and "Okay, we get it now".
Littledirtybirdyfeet
But the meme had a kid making the theory like it was brand new thing they thought of
altxatu
Yeah. The theory has been around for awhile, it wasn’t until we mapped the sea floor that we had enough evidence to change from an idea to a theory.
Mr21782Man
This. They had plenty of conjectures but no way to prove them. There were a dozen theories on why the continents were moving around but no real proof. Then we got to the point where we could actually build stuff that survive the 4000 PSI and map out the sea floor and provide proof that it was spreading out.

#1 yeah brain, wtf is up with that?

For me it's ADHD. Attention deficit is misleading. If you think of it as an attention CONTROL deficit it makes a lot more sense. I can pay SO much attention, I just don't get to choose where.
jayman0123
do you know how frustrating it is sitting in the lobby of a fast food restaurant eating, trying to have a conversation, having to hear the food fry in the oil from the kitchen...

Maybe an auditory processing disorder. I read recently that it can mess with your hearing
SerialChickenLover
I recently read about this, and a lightbulb went off. My entire life, I just told people I had bad hearing. But that’s not true, I can hear sounds other people don’t hear, especially low frequency sounds. I thought I had bad hearing because words sounded garbled sometimes, but it’s only because ADHD is under a microscope right now that I learned it’s a APD is a symptom of that disorder.
MissChickle
Are you me?

It's not that "capitalism doesn't work", it's that it is working exactly as intended.
Seggs
if i may wax pedantic for a moment: what we have is corpratism. capitalism would allow companies of any size to fail completely
Ryyyyyyyan
"The purpose of a system is what it does"
Sechran
Yeah. The leaders in question are probably all like, "wtf are you talking about? Capitalism works great (for me)!"
greghaki
That's fair. What did you have in mind?
Vorphalack
I read it to mean that both as a real system and as a vision of society, capitalism is inadequate to the necessities of human life.
JohnnyLawlessEsq
"The purpose of a system is what it does."
Sleepimedes
They mean it doesn't work as a long-term, sustainable economic level for the size of societies that exist. As a way to get rich for a few people, for a few generations, sure.. but it will collapse eventually, or at least wither away and die.
Sleepimedes

JackalopeElope
How about: "The various benefits promised (largely by people already in positions of power and privilege) have largely failed to materialize for the workers."

I'm so tired and poor
CelestialSea
Yes, currency was actually created specifically so the nobility could hoard wealth. There are only so many chickens, cows, blocks of cheese you can store, but you can essentially store an unlimited amount of money.
DahPrincess
I don't know enough about this to state anything as fact or fiction, but I feel like the answer is possibly a bit more nuanced than that?
CelestialSea
Possibly, nobody knows for sure as it pre-dates written language, but that is the popular belief among historians and archaeologists who study such things. I just go with the experts.
