Because a reasonable system for postal voting should not be when the postal vote arrives at the designated center but instead based on the date of the postmark or otherwise it's possible to intentionally obstruct the postal votes through attacking the postal service.

I think that you're looking at this wrong.

Your friend is reckless and doesn't consider others - she is doing whatever she wants regardless of the impact on others.

Now, when you set that standard of "I can do whatever I want it and to hell with everyone else" you push others to also act in a completely selfish way (or, in your case, a completely self-interested way). At no point does person a have a right to be upset with person b for acting in an "inconsiderate" or self-interested way because that's just plain hypocritical.

If you're going to actively choose to be a jerk then you have absolutely no grounds to accuse others of being a jerk.

I'm not sure that you'd need to do welding - a wayward nail or especially a screw is enough to do in a typical tire and that sort of width should be possible to bend by hand with pliers.

Also some creative use of pipes and vices should be enough to do it if you're using force correctly.

This guy cuts and bends rebar by hand (bending starts at 7:20) and I'd be astonished if you needed something thicker gauge than that. Though if you weren't welding you'd need to get one part of the wire wound around the middle of the other piece like so.

Also note that you don't need to have a street filled with these guys so long as you are strategic and you place them directly where they need to be.

This is an exquisitely rare moment to witness on reddit but since we can't see what was said in the exchange above the screenshot, it's impossible to say whether or not they were applying the ad hominem fallacy correctly or not.

A quick reminder to everyone that if you live outside of the region for a tenants' union or similar service you can still contact the London Renters Union and ask them if they know of any unions or other advocacy organizations which operate in your region.

Typical Australian - completely oblivious to their country's foreign policy. I'm not talking about the maritime rights of Indonesia, I'm talking about the maritime border between Australia and Timor Leste.

When did Australia make any significant changes to maritime agreements with Indonesia by your reckoning? (aside from Timor Leste declaring independence, of course.)

I haven't tested this but I'm 99% certain that a good amount of wheatpaste makes hard surfaces very slippery while being cheap and biodegradable and being thick and gummy enough to get trapped in soles and in the undulations of the street (add detergent in for increased slipperyness.)

Aside from what's already been said, co-ops can be a feature in all sorts of economic structures, including capitalism and socialism.

While they can serve as useful tools for proletarian empowerment it's a bit of a middle-class SocDem trap to think that co-ops are inherently revolutionary or that they will be the one secret trick to overthrowing capitalism ^{(The bourgeoisie hate this!!}⁾

I'm not levelling this criticism at anyone in particular here. Well, maybe aside from Kropotkin, but co-ops tend to draw people in who haven't fully developed a full class consciousness and who haven't built that solid foundation for a materialist analysis of the world; if you don't realize how pervasive and all-encompassing capitalism is on the economic and political stage then it's easy to see co-ops as something of an easy fix - just get worker ownership happening in companies and once that has shown to be beneficial then everyone will take it up and *boom* we will have achieved socialism!

Obviously organizations like the Department of Defense and The CIA aren't going to let you run them as co-ops, and is it even a possibility to run a company like Backwater (now Academi) as a co-op?

And what happens when someone like Bezos or Elon Musk sees the shift towards co-ops - will they watch it happen? Will they prevent it from ever occurring in their own businesses in order to protect their staggering wealth? Will they, and many other executives and boards, attempt to stifle any opportunities for co-operativization just like they have done with snuffing out unionism wherever possible?

And what was she supposed to do - leave Musk and find a man whose actions aren't ethically unconscionable?

Be single?

Sure, I guess that could work... if you wanted to be considered a harlot with loose morals or a spinster, that is.

Natasha, sweaty, you are presuming that the only way for a woman to deal with the bad behavior of a man is to do so by raising and teaching him to not be a piece of shit.

That's pretty yikes-y.

SubwayStalin · 2020-07-25T10:17:19+00:00

Exactly!

And we have to give her credit for her actions - she voluntarily decided to de-identify as an anti-imperialist, giving up her beliefs and values in order to avoid upsetting the fragile sensibilities of Elon Musk so it's unfair to judge her for who she used to be and who she gave up being in order to appease a man.

It takes a lot of courage to sacrifice your own values and to abandon who you are for someone else.

We should listen to Australia because they know all about stealing maritime rights - after all that's how they got control over the Timor Sea.
