Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

Moving workers' pensions from a defined benefit that was their employer's responsibility to an individual account floating in the big casino we call a market was a deliberate scheme to distort and obfuscate class interests
it's truly depressing. my step-grandpa who died at age 93 like 13 years ago had pension. i was like WELL THAT WOULD BE NICE. he did not die in poverty.
It's so ghastly to watch the campaigns for the same in Europe.
