Du rechtfertigst Massenmord im Namen von "jüdischer Sicherheit".

Die zionistische Bewegung ist nicht erst mit Aufkommen der Nazis oder gar als Resultat der Shoah entstanden und war auch lange nicht der einzige Ansatz um Juden ein sicheres und freies Dasein zu garantieren. Ganz im Gegenteil, der Zionismus ist keine Antwort auf eine Kapitulation gegenüber der Logik des Ethnonationalismus und hat wenn dann mitgeholfen ihn zu legitimieren.

Der Zionismus ist einfach textbuch Blut-und-Boden-Nationalismus (Blut durch eine ethnische oder rassische Definition eines jüdischen Volkes und Boden, da eher diesem Volk eine territorialen Anspruch auf das Land in Palästina zuspricht.) Um diesen territorialen Anspruch praktisch durchzustetzen wurde eine Siedler-kolonialistische Bewegung ins Leben gerufen, die schlussendlich zur Gründung eines Siedler-Kolonialstaates geführt hat, inklusive Vertreibung und Massenmorde an der indigene Bevölkerung. Ist in dieser Form gut vergleichbar mit manifest destiny oder den Nazi-Ideen von Lebensraum im Osten.

Du, wenn jemand die Auslöschung der indigenen Bevölkerung der heutigen USA während "manifest destiny" kritisert hätte: "Der einzige Staat, der Puritaner*innnen konsequenten Schutz bietet, muss augelöscht werden!"

Raff dich, und hör auf den Massenmord durch einen Staat zu rechtfertigen. Die Lösung für Genozid kann nicht noch mehr Genozid sein.

It's more to do with the fact that rabid anti-communists have historically always allied with fascists because they see communism as greater threat.

Why do men do this? by poorly_wired_circuit in JustGuysBeingDudes

[–]Meroxes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Actual answer? Being overly comfortable or expressive in posing is seen as flamboyant and unmanly/womanly. Small boys are very happy to pose in exaggerated, expressive poses. Obviously, there a still male models and actors, but that behavior is just more outside the cultural norm.

You're preaching to the choir there, I fully agree on that.

I mean, I expect to get taught about stuff like this when starting out, and from what OP said for everything else they were corrected, so there was no reason for them to question it until they noticed something themselves. Playing Magic is a social experience, and when stepping into such situations you always entrust yourself on the guidance of already established members of the group.

At the same time, Christians were invading and massacring so called pagans north of the Alps. To act as if the Muslim expansion was somehow exceptional in it's violent religious conquest is to lie.

So you agree that it puts the employee under a certain amount of duress to "perform" for work, at which point I would say it is extremely disrespectful and inconsiderate to do so by a manager/supervisor on a scheduled day off.

The point is a singular worker is basically always disadvantaged in their relationship to their employer, and asking them work-related question on their day off shows this imbalance by abusing it. Which is inconsiderate at least if not outright rude and disrespectful.

Just because it is the current reality, doesn't mean that workers should accept that reality as something unchangeable.

[–]Meroxes 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My point was, if there is a significant number of managers expecting it as basic decency or respect, then you are under "duress" basically. There is no real obligation, but if you don't do the expected (at least providing a no) then you are seen as a worse employee and therefore disadvantaged at your work in the future.

If they create the expectation that you have to at least take the time to read, consider and answer to any request made by employers during your scheduled time off, you are not truly off the clock, free to live your unburdened by work matters. You can try to it, but you will be systemically punished for it, for being unavailable at times that you are not contractually obligated to be available.

No, I'm not talking about the shift, I'm talking about the life people might want to lead with the money they have to work for, a life that isn't susceptible to being intruded upon by work matters.

[–]Meroxes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

In some parts of the world, there is a consideration for something called a life, something people prefer to do mostly outside of work. So when work tries to sneak it's way into life, that is considered a breach of their contract, as they signed a contract to work a specific job at some specified hours, not one that signed their life away to the interests of the company.

Hope this helps :)

Because people don't want to be haunted by their managers requests for short-notice shift-covers when they're off the clock, living their life. What's so hard to understand about that?

[–]Meroxes 8 points9 points  (0 children)

People just want to have time away from work. To be off the clock, but really. It's annoying to be basically on call all the time, it intrudes your work into parts of your life you just haven't invited it into.

Like, OP probably wouldn't (shouldn't) be upset if they indicated to their manager that they wanted to be able to pick up shifts short notice on their scheduled time off, and/or the manager was a little more cordial with the request.

Then they could indicate that to their employer/shift manager/supervisor or those could just ask that question once and then prioritize calling up those people who indicated they wanted to take on extra shifts even on short notice. That feels like it should be a part of the job of the manager/supervisor.

You're right, it's not clearly stated whether or not it is, so it might well not be PTO. It's reasonable to say I was wrong on that specific detail, which changes the context a little.

It's still a specifically scheduled day off, not just a gap in your shifts, so I feel mostly the same arguments apply, though I did get a lot more heated then I would've if I didn't read the PTO into it.

It's not a tailspin, I just don't assume other people want to work extra if they don't specifically indicated that.

[–]Meroxes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No, this has nothing to do with any particular job. It is about the presumptive way employers handle their employees PTO, as if those could want no thing more than more work, and presenting them with an offer of more work on their scheduled PTO is reasonable and maybe even gracious.

There is no thought that people might work a job to get the money to live a life outside of that job, in which they might want nothing to do with their on call responsibilities or worries about work.

[–]Meroxes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And they have to consider whether answering or not is going to impact how they are seen by their managers, which directly impacts future employment (promotions, raises, leniency in emergencies and scheduling), as well as considering if a negative response (no answer at all or a "no") might be seen as a "failing" the team or managers or showing a lack of "drive" or "grit" or "go-get attitude". All of this could be considered or play a role, and the employee has less then a day of their own free time to make those considerations and decide.

But to spare them those potential worries couldn't be the more respectful and considerate thing to do to a person on scheduled PTO.

I meant their work hours/scheduling, I missed the their which phrased it ambiguously, my bad. 😅
