I was just thinking about this today when I was out for a run.
It's similar to how we keep getting record temperatures year on year.
I think something isn't working as intended

No, you misunderstood. You see, the crisis lasts your entire generation
Well... you keep on giving the most rabidly ignorant, recklessly greedy bigoted zealots the keys to the kingdom every 4-to-8 years, what did you expect?
Then when Democrats can't fix everything quickly while under constant zealot attack and sabotage, you reward the saboteurs with the keys to the goddamned kingdom again. All while you proudly proclaim that you've got it all figured out, because you read a blog post or tweet somewhere:
bOtH pArTiEs ArE tHe SaMe LoL aMiRiTe WhY bOtHeR vOTiNg?
This is why I've become an accelerationist, pissing off massive swaths of Lemmy tankies and libs. We likely need these consequences so people make more active, informed decisions in the future. I'm old enough now that I see people making the same mistakes over and over and over again.
Unfortunately, we're talking generations here before we see positive results. We didn't really condemn terrible leaders of the past until they were swept deep into the margins of history.
That’s where you messed up. The current administration of chaos is extremely efficient at putting the horrors outside of people’s direct vision. Comparatively, very few people are going to arrive home to find their neighbor on fire and feel compelled to act.
Better social safety nets and better education can put people in stable enough circumstances they can become socially aware of problems beyond themselves. By that point they don’t even need to be pushed into it. And Democrats - not all of them but plenty of them - have championed those policies. But they’ve been thoroughly crushed now by “both sides” mentality because they don’t have a violent expulsion reaction to being crushed by accelerationism.
That’s where you messed up.
fails to convince me I "messed up" on anything in any possible way, stance unchanged.
You talked about needing consequences so that people make more informed decisions. I was trying to illustrate to you how the current path of consequences is built to dismantle informed decisions.
There are millions of Americans being asked “Regretting your choices yet???” and answering “wdym? Everything is fine. You read too much of the news.”
So if your motivation for accelerationism is spite and anger, nothing to criticize. But if you’re in favor of the harm caused because you think it will lead to people changing their minds anytime soon, you are grossly misreading the current path.
Dunno about 2002 but '08-present day is 100% the same event
While the housing crisis is still everlasting (most significantly in the US, many other countries have started national housing programs) the economic one has ended in the june(?) of 2009!
Idk how you can say it ended when the fundamental causes of the collapse were never addressed, the perpetrators were never punished, and the middle class continued to shrink. Stocks were pretty much the only thing that improved since 2008.
The markets recovered, the employment rate recovered. The financial crisis ended regardless of whatever happened/didn’t happened to the perpetrators, benefactors of it
Replacing salaried desk jobs with hourly wages and no pay increase isn't exactly employment growth. If everything recovered just fine, why are millennials miles behind where their parents were at a similar age? Homeownership has been steadily declining, savings accounts have steadily been dwindling, and the rate of Americans living paycheck to paycheck has only gone up in the past 20 years. That's not a recovery, it's an adaptation to a new normal.
Pls don’t be a tittertale cuck and look up what a financial crisis is! Neither the housing crisis, nor minimal wage not following inflation necessarily continuated, nor possibly exacerbated by a financial crisis
Also while your ever tiny world is only compromised of the us, in the rest of the world the housing crisis is not nearly as severe and their living standards are either stagnating or increasing with very-very few exceptions
Europe is in the midst of a massive housing crisis.
Canada has possibly the worst housing crisis in the developed world
Korean homes are 3x as much in the major cities as smaller rural cities.
Housing has been consuming a larger and larger chunk of people's incomes for the past 15 years. That's a cost of living crisis. Because the 2008 crash allowed the wealthy to pick up all the pieces and restart the game using the exact same rules. Nothing changed, nothing improved, neoiberals just painted over the foundational cracks of our society and said everything is fine now. The finacialization of every aspect of our lives has only become more extreme, so i would definitely say the 2008 crisis was never actually solved.
…did you actually read your sources? -Your source about that you titled ‘Europe having a massive housing crisis’ exclusively talks about barcelona and 2/3 of the article is about what they are doing ag it? -Your source about Canada does not state anywhere what you wrote in no misunderstable increments. It only explains its source and what they are doing againts it -So… your third country that you brought up doesn’t have a housing crisis but a major development diff between its urban and rural areas… ok? You are becoming more and more convincing by the second!
Very nice goal post shifting too! I guess you googled what a financial crisis is? I only had to ask you 3 or so times? So as I stated in my first comment to you: the financial crisis of 2008 ended in 2009, regardless of (as I stated in every single comment to you) of what other issues it started/enchanced/continuated; the FINANCIAL CRISIS of 2008 ended
Weak men created hard times. Thanks, boomers.
There's no war but the class war, everything else is propaganda to distract us from the real criminals.
