    That’s the reason why UBI and raising the minimum wage isn’t a permanent solution for the working class though. They are good and provide some relief certainly, but in the end the corporations will exploit even harder, raise prices causing inflation that makes the raises unimportant, and use all that as a debate point to show that giving back to the workers leads to price raises.

    Workers should still fight for raises, benefits and better contracts, but the end goal should be ending the system that gives the owners of capital all the power in the world.



















  • There are fighters that know Wing Chun and apply some of the concepts. As with most martial arts, you shouldn’t learn one and expect it to work in real conditions, you should learn a bit of many martial arts and keep what makes sense to you and throw away what doesn’t. It also comes down to how you personally apply your techniques.

    Another thing is that lots of Wing Chun moves are either lethal or break bones, so you obviously can’t have that on a legal tournament lol


  • The potential monetization being the donations to give them a living wage? What exactly is the criticism about, that they shouldn’t get a living wage through donations and should rather make the platform paid or ruin it with ads?

    Why do so many people get off on attacking the idea of FOSS, much of the software that is running our everyday lives is supported through FOSS (and lots of them are also being donated to so that the devs can afford to put food on their tables).

    There are also many devs (on Lemmy as well) that contribute a lot without being paid, simply because they like the project, want to make it better, and want to learn by doing.
