Optimal privation

Why the privation? Do you want to know? They NEED you... To NEED Jesus and their reality monster.
Hym "So... If you DON'T ACTUALLY NEED THEIR REALITY MONSTER... Well... That's nothing a little OPTIMAL PRIVATION WON'T FIX! Then you'll have nowhere else to turn. And if you DON'T? Well, the creature will sort you out after you're dead. So, they need to manufacture it with inaction. People can be quoted saying 'Well, so-and-so could fix world hunger over night' BUT that would get rid of all the privation. No need for Jesus anymore. The church would have no one to feed to justify all of the money they are given. The poor are perpetual money farms so long as you create a perpetual state of privation. Because people are always willing to donate to charity or church. They aren't even expected to spend all of the money ON THE ACTUAL THING FOR WHICH THEY ARE BEING GIVEN THE MONEY. The don't have to show their receipts."

ninja promotion

noun

When you're awarded a fancy new title and a fresh pile of responsibilities, but your paycheck doesn’t move an inch. Like a ninja, this promotion slips in silently, sounds impressive, might even look impactful—but remains completely undetectable in your bank account.

Origin:
Rumored to have started among government employees, where budget freezes were common but the need for “recognition” was high. Managers, unable to offer raises, began handing out sleek new titles like “Senior Specialist” or “Lead Coordinator” as stealthy morale boosters. The term “ninja promotion” was coined after someone joked that their new role was like a ninja—deadly serious, highly skilled, and totally invisible on payday.

Often includes:

A new title

More meetings

Higher expectations

No money

A LinkedIn update and a slice of cake
Coworker: “I thought you got promoted?”
You: “Yeah, it was a ninja promotion. Still broke, but at least it sounds cool.”
