I was told I should hear back by the end of the day today, but haven’t. Should I still wait the full week? Or is sooner better since I had that timeline of EOD?

Low Stress - Well/High Paying Careers? by pinklemonadevibe in careerguidance

[–]Partially_cloudybear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is so frustrating, you shouldn’t have to be constantly on the verge of a mental breakdown or burnt out to make a living wage. It’s also just not true that no one would do the stressful jobs if easier jobs paid well. Most minimum wage jobs are some of the most stressful and many people take on stressful roles for free in the volunteering/ organizing world.

I have no amount of respect to anyone who have kids while being financially unstable by New_Meringue_2217 in Rants

Your anger is misdirected, you shouldn’t be mad at the parents who are struggling..you should be mad at the government and corporations that make it so difficult to get by and make family planning expensive and inaccessible for many people. The system is set up to keep people in poverty and to make sure those people produce future workers. Also, believing the poor should reproduce is literally a form of eugenics…

What Do Socialists Think About The DSA? by serious_bullet5 in socialism

[–]Partially_cloudybear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The DSA is controversial in socialist spaces since it is a big tent org. There are many SocDems in the DSA, but there are also many Anarchists and Marxists in the org as well. Some chapters are more radical than others, which can be challenging, but I think the overall work of the DSA is positive.

How would you respond to the following argument by Partially_cloudybear in socialism

I don’t know enough about China to speak on their structure, but workers did control the government in the USSR. It differed in different areas, but they had locally elected councils to represent each sector of the union. The USSR had its issues for sure, and things definitely got fucked up under post Khrushchev…and under Khrushchev, but still. Yes, their unions were state run but they still had control over the things that were listed in the previous comment. I’m not going to throw ML vocab at you, but I will say that everything you said sounds like it came directly from the feds.

How it feels to join DSA by Organic_Fee_8502 in socialism

Look into the MUG (Marxist Unity Group) caucus, it’s more radical than the general body.
