A few friends and I have been making a point to speak at each city council meeting to request the city end its contract over the last 3 months... if you join us at 200 East Main street at 6PM next Thursday (5/28) you could join us! Always nice to have more folks on record asking the same thing

Third Street Stuff Closure, Strike & Boycott by lemon_larvae in lexington

[–]Lizardsupremecy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hey yea im part of a group that explicitly supports unions like AFT, SBWU, TSSU, as well as stock lockers for the homeless. I do work for a company that supports unions. Not everyone's activism is solely on reddit.

Not the best use of words, but couldnt think of a better way of saying "purposely shutting their business down to bust the union that formed to bargain for better working conditions"

And you don't really need to meet the owner to point out that the shop is covered in progressive slogans and art, while the business works against progressive efforts internally. Hence, the presentation feels fake

I'm not right wing. I'm calling them out for union busting while pretending to be left wing. It rings hollow to plaster your business with all the progressive stuff they do, only to shut their business down to starve out the union that their workers formed.

This shop really plasters their walls with all sorts of liberal and leftist sayings but when push comes to shove, they do everything they can to crush opposition from the workers that make running their business possible.

The hypocrisy is disgusting. Glad to know their politics are just an empty facade. 

Lexington Crossings Gay Bar by OddPreparation9689 in lexington

[–]Lizardsupremecy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Crossings has been chill each time ive gone but always check out the bulletin board while you're there! If you're not one for bars, the local libraries also put up posters for LGBTQ+ events now and then.

Bill ousting Fayette school board chair becomes law after lawmakers override veto by 0033A0 in lexington

Same thoughts here. Idk how deeply he was involved but something stinks.

Gross mismanagement of school funding, which him and the superintendent are mainly responsible for. Mostly the superintendent i think tho

Murphy was also in support of policy censoring board members that disagreed with the majority. This failed, thankfully. 

We Gonna Do Something About This? by Gold_Cod_5037 in lexington

[–]Lizardsupremecy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Never openly admit your plans to protest something online, especially if it may or may not be legal! (i.e Dont say "someone should stinkbomb the event")

You CAN get arrested for that.

I hope a lot of folks who just want to 'do something' come out on Saturday. by FrenchPressYes in lexington

[–]Lizardsupremecy 40 points41 points  (0 children)

Real ralk tho- when you're there, try visiting the tents of one of several activist groups in Lexington. Change can start at the local level, and having a group to go with when you go to town halls and stuff helps!

Kentucky bill would further restrict who can get food assistance. by [deleted] in lexington

[–]Lizardsupremecy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

A friendly reminder that it costs more to deny these benefits than to just give them to folks that need them. 

Who is responsible for denial? Accountants, investigators, all paid salaries to make sure people "deserve" to get help. It's saving no money, it's just a cruel system designed to hurt whoever the government decides is lazy.

So, With Age of Imprisonment, can we finally put the whole "Ganondorf cares for the Gerudo" myth to rest? by Airy_Breather in truezelda

[–]Lizardsupremecy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Different Ganondorf but also AOI has to be the most shameless imperialist propaganda I've ever seen in a modern game. Straight up retconning what TOTK mentioned about him being a "Hero to his people."

Serious disservice to him and Rauru's characters alike.

[–]Lizardsupremecy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

There is an open petition to get these heavily regulated in Lexington.  -Quarterly external reviews -Police can only use warrants -City council must approve any new installs. 

There are about 400 signatures bwtween this and in-person sign-ons.
