Come to Quark’s, Quark’s is Fun!
General off-topic chat for the crew of startrek.website. Trek-adjacent discussions, other sci-fi television, navigating the Fediverse, server meta (within reason), selling expired cases of Yamok sauce, it’s all fair game.

They are employers. If they say it's because of the economy, it'll fuck up the stonks further because the whole thing is vibes based.
They are known to lie. See Target shoplifting claims which turned out to be bullshit.
Thank goodness we have you to tell us what's real.
Thank you, I'm so glad we have employers telling us the reason why they are not hiring is because they hate zoomers even though they also know zoomers will be an important market to sell their commodities to, which they can't buy without a job.
If they cared about giving their employees enough money to buy extra things wages wouldn't have stagnated for decades.
Consider the motivations of one internet commenter to lie, then weigh that against the motivations of an entire economic system predicated on finding excuses to underpay your labor force.
Thank goodness we have people willing to organically repeat what companies say with zero analysis, we don't get enough of that in every major media outlet
