Meta tried so hard to recruit me. It was HARD to say no. They have amazing facilities, fucking nice ass games everywhere, amazing pay, free food everywhere you look...
and they destroy democracy and freedom more everyday. But I can actually still sleep at night with my low wage somehow... wierd.
This bullshit "grindset", "do whatever it takes to give me.and mine what we know we deserve" is a subversive mental plant that's been growing as a seedling from the first time you saw a TV commercial with happy kids playing with better toys than you. And it's all bullshit. News flash, you and yours aren't special and you don't deserve anything extra. However, we we all collectively do deserve better. Just not individually. It's a grand lie and these morons keep conflating it.
You don't NEED that job at X, or Meta. You WANT it, because you think you're special and have earned the right to harm the world that tiiiiiny immeasurable amount, so you and yours can get thier cake. It's a lie, and we all deserve cake. Don't skip the line.
