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!

protestant ethic (and the spirit of capitalism) detected.
The protestant work ethic and its valuation of things like regular and early schedules, diligence in your dedicated lifelong vocation, and refusal of frivolous purchasing is largely responsible for the structure and dominance of capitalism.
Maybe check out The Protestant Ethic and the Spirit of Capitalism by Max Weber and do some self crit?
