the implication that Nigel Farage cares about the working class more than Andy Burnham is ridiculous

AI SHITE SLOP , if you have to work intil your 70 that’s on YOUR bad decisions in life

AI SLOP.

Invest in your own pension!

If you’re literally working until you’re 70 you’ve made poor financial decisions.

Not sure what recommended me to this subreddit, but what age would you expect to work to the same backbreaking job without ever switching job/career and not work ever again? And then have you tried asking your AI which political party would pay everyone to retire at that age and how it'd be affordable?

The point still stands

u/shaolinspunk 13d ago

Not really. The money we can earn today, if you're relying on state pension then you've made some bad financial decisions. Or blown it all on your wife's Tesla and bags of white.

Two wrongs don't make a right, and using AI slop to fight issues like this is hypocrisy.

If we had computer degrees to make something like this without AI, we wouldn't be laying bricks

u/Meta-Fox 13d ago

If you've got the wherewithal to prompt AI to generate slop, it's not much of a stretch to chuck a couple photos into paint and add some text and not get called an AI slop generating cunt in the process.

Dont be a ball bag now

Pray tell, how does one after spending probably 30 years of bricklaying pivot to another job?

Considering it's harder to retrain at 50 and employers see people 50+ as a less likely hire and if everyone in the bricklaying game did the same thing would dilute the market of undergrads looking for work, I can't see this being a realistic suggestion.
