@CryogenicNighthawk Also they do work, unions are why 8 hour work week, benefits, weekends, lunch breaks, and minimum wage are a thing

re: unions 

@CryogenicNighthawk militantcy. Lack of bureaucracy, every strike is a wildcat strike. Labor unions stopped working well when they started following all the laws about them made by the government. Mutual aid networks are a must. Never mind of the propaganda that they don't work at all and you shouldn't join one put out by companies.

Y'know, I still sometimes see people call Spotify better than piracy, but I don't know about that anymore. Now that they've demonetized so many tracks... if you pirate music, at least you know the artist isn't getting paid and you might buy it someday. Someone who streams music thinks they paid for it, and they'll never go buy it afterwards.

@PaulNickson @The_Icarian 20% voted for trump but its all about that 20%'s racism. I'm not saying propaganda isn't apart of the increasing fascism. But most of the population doesn't want this. USA has never really been a Democratic country. There are endless checks in place to keep people from taking power from the rich by voting.

Why do so many people say they are polyam but when it comes down too it they get all mono and jelly? And end up expecting to have a veto card that was never discussed.

Thinking about the book, neuromancer and how we are in a society so close to that. But some how more boring, like Fahrenheit 451 was not a field guide :blobfacepalm:

what do I think of Germany denazifying after world war 2? I think It's been like 80 years and they should probably hurry up and get on with it

@The_Icarian it has alot more to do with racism and lack of ability of the population to have a say in the us government but sure

In the face of Stephen Fry’s mask-off transphobic betrayal of the queer community, please remember this world contains Sandi Toksvig.

I so tired of techies showing they have neither morals nor ethics, then being shocked when their work harms them.

You know that’s all interlinked, right?

Today in Labor History December 22, 2010: President Obama signed the repeal of the Don't ask, don't tell policy. The 17-year-old law banned LGBTQ people from serving openly in the U.S. military. Now LGBTQ people can serve openly and kill innocent civilians throughout the world for the benefit of American corporations, just like their straight sisters and brothers.

The red-bellied lemur (Eulemur rubriventer) a medium-sized strepsirrhine primate. They're designated as vulnerable according to the IUCN Red List, due to threats endangering habitats from slash-and-burn agriculture in Madagascar. #wildlife #nature #biology #conservation #animals #photo

I’ll be honest, hearing SEO people complain about the state of Google now is like hearing an arsonist complain that they just can’t get the quality of kerosene they used to.
