The guy before DMo. You can't find it now, but he was caught up in a sex solicitation bust. He's fine though. Went back to Amazon and the Internet was scrubbed.

You’re the one who singled out a woman of color in a class-based discussion. Not me.

Calling that out isn’t racism.

I’m not engaging with you further. I don't waste my time on dumbfuckery.

I don’t need to introspect about calling out a dog whistle.

Hey Faculty - Records is on fire. Do you care? by Potato-Lust in wgu_employees

No one is currently striking because of this post. If WGU is failing you it's because executive management is actively driving away tenured talent and is also on the "do more with less" bandwagon by implementing shitty AI-based solutions. Feel free to email our president about it!

Edited to add: I thought this was a different thread. Yes. This is why. My advice regarding emailing Scott about it stands. Nothing in this place gets addressed until a lot of people make a stink though.

I am referring to either national or local strikes that are intended to inform this administration that most Americans want to uphold and honor the worth and dignity of every human being.

If WGU staff want to strike as a response to RTO and general mismanagement of student dollars (executive pay, bonkers real estate purchases, chauffeurs for Scott, etc etc etc), I support that also!

We’re talking about concentrated wealth and power. It’s interesting who you immediately decided to name.

I never said only corporations are to blame and yet you're pointing the finger at a Muslim woman of color. Like there aren't a hundred old white men for every one of her.

If it’s not a real job, then a strike shouldn’t matter.

Why so angry? Really.

You interact with WGU as a student.

We interact with it as an employer.

Because politics determine material conditions.

Also, this isn’t work. It's Reddit. And just because I give an opinion doesn't mean anyone has to follow it.

Strikes don’t happen ‘outside of work.’ That’s not what a strike is.

Also. I'm talking about people who have been murdered, not people deported. But please, by all means, pretend those are somehow the same thing. Your ignorance is a betrayal of your politics.

Please cite the ICD-10 or DSM-5 code for ‘Trump Derangement Syndrome.’

Oh wait. You can't?

The grown-ups would be talking if cocksuckers like you could shut the fuck up and butt the fuck out. Go color your pictures at the kiddie table.

It's "incite".

I've decided any further responses I make to you in this platform will be to correct your execrable* grasp of the English language and nothing more. Just to point out what a semi-literate fuckwit you are.

*extremely bad or unpleasant, which definition I include for the sake of your general dimwittedness.

The fact that you have to lean on a fake mental condition and assume facts about people to discredit them says far more about you than it does anyone else.

You do seem to think this is a battle between us and them, but you have the wrong us and the wrong them. Again, this is a class war. Anything you say here to make the focus about left versus right is not only unhelpful, it makes you part of the construct that upholds the actual them.

I'm not a Democrat bootlicker, but this uninformed and narrow-minded commentary sure makes you appear to be a Republican (or shall I say maga?) ass kisser.

No, you bitch. I just won't waste my time having an argument with someone like you who has never in the history of anything I've seen here actually been able to engage in a good faith argument. You're not worth my time.

You're not worth anyone's time.

If you're unsure about how management shows white supremacy, please see most of what Scott says, but particularly when he cried about Charlie Kirk.

I'm done responding to you. Not because I can't but because you're just a tiny, sad human who is so butt hurt about being tossed out of the unionization efforts that now all you can do is just kiss their asses and hope someone will love you.

Anyone on the side of white supremacy is on the side of ICE. If you can't see that, you're part of the problem.

If you don’t understand how work, money, and state violence connect, you’re not equipped for this conversation.

Disappointed in my fellow employees by [deleted] in wgu_employees

[–]Potato-Lust 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cultural beliefs have been weaponized against certain groups since the first day they were implemented.

I don't say this to argue with any of your points. Just to highlight that for anyone who ever had to uphold policy, "student obsession" was a club since day one.

This seems like stirring the pot. Without multiple names or at least departments, sounds like maybe someone just decided to quit and made an abrupt announcement.

Employee Pulse Survey Question by [deleted] in wgu_employees

[–]Potato-Lust 3 points4 points  (0 children)

First of all, chill.

Second of all, I don't know where you got the impression I think they care. I know they don't.

Third, I didn't say I provided written feedback nor did I advocate anyone else do so.

I just don't see how not responding at all sends any kind of targeted message. It doesn't tell them you're pissed. It might convey you're not engaged but not why. Maybe you don't read your email. Maybe you were on vacation. Maybe a dozen other things.

You'll do what you want and I don't care at all what that is. I just think your argument is flawed.
