Elon Musk was asked what love looked like in his parents' marriage.
His answer explains his entire relationship history in one sentence.
"My father showed me that love could be the most dangerous thing in a house."
Everyone expected the standard dysfunctional-family answer. That his parents fought. That the divorce was messy. That he didn't have a model for healthy love. The boilerplate explanation that therapists offer for repeated relationship difficulties.
He went deeper. He said his father Errol used love as a control mechanism. Affection was given as a reward and withdrawn as punishment. The child learned that love is conditional. That it arrives when you perform correctly and disappears when you don't. That the person who loves you is also the person most capable of destroying you because the access that love provides is the same access that cruelty requires.
He said this wiring never left him. He enters relationships offering intense attention, which is his version of love. The partner receives it and becomes dependent on it. Then his attention migrates to the companies. The withdrawal happens not as punishment but as redirection. But the partner experiences it identically to how the child experienced Errol's withdrawal: as the removal of something that felt essential.
He said he has been on both sides. The child who received intermittent love learned that love is unstable. The man who provides intermittent presence replicates the instability. Not deliberately. Not cruelly. Through the same mechanism, transmitted across a generation, expressed in different language but producing the same result in the person receiving it.
The boy who learned that love is the most dangerous thing in a house grew up to make love the most dangerous thing in his relationships. Not because he chose to. Because the wiring that danger installed is the only wiring he has.

"Under Communism, everyone has a job". This is absolutely true.
Here's what else was true.
1) you were ASSIGNED your job AND the region for that job by the state (i.e., a bureaucraft). You were required to stay in your job at least 3 years.
2) After 3 years, if you wanted to switch jobs, you needed the approval of both your labor board AND your employer. If you switched too often (for example: every 3 years), there were legal penalties, up to imprisonment.
3) promotions were based on party membership, loyalty, and sucking up. I'ved talked to a lot of former Soviet citizens, and zero of them thought merit was of use. Also many nice jobs were only for party members.
4) Wages were pretty even across the board. A factory worker, engineer, and factory manager had similar salaries, so it was indeed egalitarian, but didn't have a lot of incentive. The higher-rank workers did get perks to make up for it. They might get a vacation dacha on the Black Sea. Or a "company" car with a chaffeur. That sort of thing. The higher-ups had better stuff.
5) you needed a passport to travel inside your own country . You couldn't just move to Leningrad and look for work. Or even go on vacation without permission.
6) you had a union. It was state-controlled. You could not go on strike. If you criticized your factory manager, you would be arrested. Yay unions.
If you look at the above, they are an evil capitalist's wet dream. Think of a movie with a foul imaginary super-corporation so beloved of science fiction movies. - they would support every one of those initiatives.
Becuase that's what the Soviet Union was - the biggest, most evil corporation that ever existed.

If lying to your insurance company to get a payout is fraud, lying to your customers to avoid one should be too.
Narrow specialisation is for narrow thinking retards, losers.
Richard Feynman initially declared his major to be mathematics. During the fall semester of his freshman year at MIT, he went to the head of the mathematics department and asked: "What is the use of higher mathematics besides teaching more mathematics?"
The head answered: "If you have to ask that, then you don't belong in mathematics."

Socialism is slavery on a welfare plantation - except only some of the slaves have to work.

I don't know who needs to hear this, but "all men are created equal" doesn't refer to how fast they can run or any trait whatsoever and anyone who tells you otherwise is a fool or bad.
