from Google AI:
NEET is an acronym that stands for Not in Education, Employment, or Training. It is a socioeconomic classification that refers to young adults or teenagers who are unemployed and not enrolled in school or vocational training.
The Social and Economic Phenomenon
Originally coined in the United Kingdom in the late 1990s, the term has become a widely used metric for economists and sociologists globally to track the health of youth labor markets.
The Classification: It applies to individuals, typically between the ages of 16 and 24, who are either actively looking for work or have stopped participating in the labor force entirely.
Global Scope:Other Meanings
- The phenomenon exists globally, with higher percentages often exacerbated by complex factors such as mental health struggles, caregiving responsibilities, or difficulties transitioning from school to work.
- Cultural Slang: In internet culture and some countries like Japan, the term can sometimes be colloquially used to describe individuals who intentionally retreat from society, often spending their time at home.
If you are not referring to the socioeconomic acronym, you might be thinking of the National Eligibility cum Entrance Test (NEET). This is a massive, highly competitive medical entrance examination in India required for students seeking admission to undergraduate medical and dental programs.

The days of capitalist engineered human suffering in the pursuit of wealth accumulation at the top 1%-3% of the economic pyramid will eventually come to a close. Sooner or later the "underclass" will unite in solidarity and destroy the selfish and inhumane capitalist destruction of the planet. As well as those who willingly and knowingly support its destructive force. Profit cannot forever superseded the welfare of the planet and basic human needs.
Capitalism is evil created and employed by the imperialist, colonialist, and capitalist class for the last 400 to 500 years. It will die and be replaced by a far better exceedingly more balanced model for structuring human existence.
That sounds like you expect mankind to transition from being horde animals, to herd animals. That won't happen. Horde animals hoard, and "wealth" (excess capital) in the form of capital is what they hoard.
In primitive times, that wealth was sacrificed non-productively in a potlatch. More recently, it was sacrificed "productively" to "philanthropy" which simply hoarded more wealth to serve the "productive" interests of the philanthropic trust.
The point is, wealth continues to be hoarded by organized "trusts". Corporations, made "immortal" by the legal codes. They are in Swiftian terms, Struldbruggs. And so long as the legal codes protect these Struldbruggs, capitalism will continue in something akin to its' present form. It has only been made worse in the form of accumulation of capital in "other" forms (Intellectual Property - IP) and other "Non-Tangible" (but legally protected) Assets from which "rents" can be extracted (ie - Bill Gates Microsoft Windows products). Hence my desire to create a Shanzhai system that would eliminate this form of capital extraction.
But hey, you demand a revolution in the streets. I simply demand one in the legal code,
...one putting an end to Technofeudal rents and corporate Struldbrugg and passive investor class legal protections
I believe that such action would reduce the capital scarcity for the vast majority, and enable them to transition from a "consumer" society to a "prosumer" (Tofflerian) one, in which every "Shanzhai" operator owns his own "means of production". And wealth redistrubutes from the hierarchical top, back down towards the Middle Classes and makes the wealth distribution more "Normal" in shape.
...like in the many Hong Kong shops I used to frequent in my sailing days who had my body and foot measurements and produced custom clothing for me (suits, shirts, pants, and shoes).
No, I demand nothing. Individuals are powerless alone. As capitalism has highlighted beautifully. For the capital class. However, in solidarity, with purpose and direction, the 97%-99% can force change. Change thar benefits humankind, NOT greedy self interested capitalists.
I would much prefer change occur through the courts and legislative process. However, the entrenched, conditioned, and heartless capital class of the top 1%-3% of capitalist will be too ignorant and greedy to allow that to happen. Wealth yields political and economic power. Eventually the people will wrestle that power from the imperialists and collonialists that devised the capitalist model.
A resurrection of the "family" business the re-incentivizes human reproduction and grants children a "sincere" (vs. profilic) identity as a small business operator. Names like "Smith" and "Baker" and "Carpenter" would restore truth to their surname.
All self-identity "Authenticity" realized through Shanzhai!
Than the voters need to stop falling for the divisive Kayfabe identity politics du jour. And the only way for that to happen is to restore the emphasis to CLASS struggle instead of race/sex/religious struggle (identity politics).
ps - and the legal boundaries are NATIONAL NOT GLOBAL. You can't let the 1% simply shift and shuffle their protected capital assets from one shell-nation to another. The globalism has GOT to STOP!
yeah
outright commie talk
I as one who lived in commie paradise know that satanic chants damn too well
go relocate to China
they already have that "solidarity, with purpose and direction", dimwit
and North Korea even MOAR
but, your answer will be "No"
because you wanna redo USA into such commie paradise
//The globalism has GOT to STOP!
Mission Impossible.
Yawn.
But well, you coud accomplish even that... with my revolutionary tech(s)
But you don't wanna...
You're the dimwit. But hey, your right. Keep on keeping on dimwit, anon.
No, mine is the same California Republican Radical Progressivism that my Uncle Louie's ancestors practiced in the CA Statehouse and that opposed the corporate power of the Northern, Central, and Southern Pacific Railroads since the late 1890s. The same radical progressivism that opposed the King's Highway passing thru their village of Gotham (Wise Men of Gotham/ Chelm).
Small businesses. Anti-fragile. NOT "throw the baby of Commerce out with the bathwater of the abolution of property in Communism's battle with Capitalism (commodification of land, labour, capital, and now, information).
Who's are the Capitalist Class in China? Xi and the ruling families of the CCP. Wern't the "3 Represents" CCP reform VUNDEVAH!
Google AI:
The Theory of Three Represents is a socio-political doctrine defining the role of the Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Introduced by former General Secretary Jiang Zemin in 2000, it dictates that the party must represent:
Advanced productive forces: China's developing economy and technological progress.
Advanced culture: The progressive and cultural development of the nation.
The fundamental interests of the overwhelming majority: The needs of all Chinese citizens, which legitimized the inclusion of private business owners into the CCP.
The CCP LOVES its' billionaire Red Guard families!
I don't want a "Commie paradise". I want a Hong Kong under British Administration that would never hand it's colony over to the CCP.
And I want to Shanzhai the HELL out of every commodity known and as yet unknown on the planet, solar system, and local bubble.
Your tech will abolish the proto-world government structures financed by the ILOS Treaty? Maybe you should take your Tier 0 tech to the UN for Undersea resource exploitation.
Oh wait, America funds all THAT bs, too!
Ayup. Always part of the problem. Keep on keeping on. You do it exceedingly well and certainly convince those who refuse to think for themselves. Those who love to bow and be lead by a moron idiot and his "movement" of hate and ignorance.
That was toward Lessy.
Toward you -- when only you get that your goal possible to achieve with new techs -- because new tech create new realities, where individuals have more persinal freedoms.
And that is recurrung theme through ages.
And how your USA was formed too -- new techs allowed Minutemans. For example.
And.
You only confirned being dimwit.

But, continue-continue, Lessy the Commie.
Yawn
Yeah... History is bs.
Or -- built on bs and perpetuate bs.

Like you are?
Followinf Commie Comerade Lenin here? %^)))
Yawn.
And you are -- Anarchist. In that late commie talks.
And what they did to Anarchists???
They. Commies. Made em first against the wall. As there was "nobody behind em". Because if nature of Anarchism. ;-p
//And I want to Shanzhai the HELL out of every commodity known and as yet unknown on the planet, solar system, and local bubble.
Whuch is possible with new techs inly. (mine, or anybidy else
Yawn
Yes, I'm AnCap Anarcho-Capitalist... but under a strictly enforced legal code to limit and prevent "Bigness".
Shoot me along with the Anarcho-Syndicalists (lovers of "bigger" and "more cooperation")
..and new techs are fine, so long as there's limits on IP. If I reverse engineer your tech, tough sh*t!
Stories of the "one way" by those who know better... (ie- Marx).
...an eschatology of the inevitable Communist Utopia!
Division of Labour necessary to cope with technical complexity is the tower of Babel that inevitable leads to the Utopia's collapse. (Horkheimer's "one way" response to Marx)
Hence the need for AI to run the Babel Project and keep comms open.
You can't convince. You need to make them "care". As for me, I could "care less" ;p
Have you figured out the Division of Labour problem?
And I Could Not Care Less if and when exploitive imperial oligarch driven capitalism collapses on itself. In FACT I will celebrate from the common man if alive when I happens. And for certain it eventually will.
...for the common man & women if and when it happens.
...and I'll buy you a beer.
Not interested.
Good to know.

//You can't convince. You need to make them "care". As for me, I could "care less" ;p
Convince commie (read idiots)???
What for?
As they can be only fooled, but yoy know my virtue already -- I deem it utterly amoral -- to prevent people from choisen by am way to die -- probably, their only and own rational and fully conscious decision in life...
yawn.
//And I Could Not Care Less if and when exploitive imperial oligarch driven capitalism collapses on itself
By transfirming into delusuinal state-teicratic capitalism (which commie-nazi are)
Well, you don't care about your children becoming slave of their foolishness.
Well, like fathwe, lije son.
recurrent theme... yawn
USSR thought themself being smart -- reverse-engineer western techs, while allowing em to take all risks
but you know -- no pain, no gain -- you take ni risks, you not deserve profits (and Golem never becomes Annie ;-p)
There's only one way to learn. Fail. Fail again. Fail 'better'!
Mimetic desire. Isn't that what envy is? The problem of the commies is the resentment that accompanies it and makes them call you the scapegoat for why they don't have all your stuff themselves.
Hesiod, "Works and Days"
THE TWO STRIFES
[11] So, after all, there was not one kind of Strife alone, but all over the earth there are two. As for the one, a man would praise her when he came to understand her; but the other is blameworthy: and they are wholly different in nature. For one fosters evil war and battle, being cruel: her no man loves; but perforce, through the will of the deathless gods, men pay harsh Strife her honour due. But the other is the elder daughter of dark Night, and the son of Cronos who sits above and dwells in the aether, set her in the roots of the earth: and she is far kinder to men. She stirs up even the shiftless to toil; for a man grows eager to work when he considers his neighbour, a rich man who hastens to plough and plant and put his house in good order; and neighbour vies with is neighbour as he hurries after wealth. This Strife is wholesome for men. And potter is angry with potter, and craftsman with craftsman, and beggar is jealous of beggar, and minstrel of minstrel.
Perses, lay up these things in your heart, and do not let that Strife who delights in mischief hold your heart back from work, while you peep and peer and listen to the wrangles of the court-house. Little concern has he with quarrels and courts who has not a year's victuals laid up betimes, even that which the earth bears, Demeter's grain. When you have got plenty of that, you can raise disputes and strive to get another's goods. But you shall have no second chance to deal so again: nay, let us settle our dispute here with true judgement divided our inheritance, but you seized the greater share and carried it off, greatly swelling the glory of our bribe-swallowing lords who love to judge such a cause as this. Fools! They know not how much more the half is than the whole, nor what great advantage there is in mallow and asphodel [poor man's fare].

Naaah.
There's YET ONE way -- to whatch a fool failing... and NOT follow his/her example.
Yawn
But that way... not for the fools... ;-p
Social Darwinism... ;p
