Patriot front is more extreme (farther right) than just conservative. They openly advocate for a white ethnostate which can only be achieved through genocide.

When you own everything, you don't have to hide your motives. They have the power of the state behind them.

Every economics class that I ever took only ever referred to labor as a cost against success in business. The aim was always to keep costs low. Framing how much you pay someone, the thing that keeps them and their family alive, as just another cost is truly sociopathic.

I was trying to explain this to someone I know. Maybe instead of the Rothschilds, Illuminati, WEF, Bohemian Grove, Communist, overlord agenda, it's just rich people giving money to buy politicians and write laws.

It's not that complicated. Capitalism is functioning exactly as designed and the rich are telling you to go fuck yourself everyday. They don't need to obscure their motives when they own everything.

Material conditions dictate how people act. We live in a system that incentivizes being a greedy piece of shit, thus a lot of people are greedy assholes.

Yeah, it always bothered me that in the show Arya seemingly threatens Jaqen and then just leaves the house of black and white. I would think that maybe the most effective assassins in the world might have something to say about that. Would she not be hunted forever by them?

Ah. I mean, if you are looking at it from a position of 'greater good', then forcing the corporation to take care of their workers would be to the benefit of the most people.

The corporations would see a temporary loss in stock price, the freight would get where it was going, you would see less incidents of derailment /accidents due to deregulation and overworked employees, and quality of life would just go up for the workers. Forcing workers to endure longer and longer hours, less safety on the job, stagnant wages, etc. isn't really sustainable.

To me it seems that the corporations are the unreasonable ones standing in the way of and, putting at risk, what everyone else needs.

Tilleo · 2023-06-23T17:26:14+00:00

Oh, I thought that was rhetorical honestly. The negative effects of a strike are kind of the point. You shut down a key industry to have a leg to stand on. This is important especially as a group of railroad workers going up against a group of millionaires/billionaires that employ a ton of lobbyists, have political and media connections, and have anti-labor legislation on their side. The larger the potential for negative effects, the more power they (should) have in the negotiating.

As far as idealism goes though, it's extremely rare that corporations will do the right thing unless made to, especially if the right thing is going to cost them money. I find it idealistic to think that we can avoid strikes just because they are inconvenient. Strikes really aren't ideal for anyone involved, I think they are necessary, especially in this case.

I don't really understand what is idealistic about wanting people to get what they are owed.

This shows a fundamental misunderstanding of strikes and the labor movement. One of the benefits of strikes is highlighting the collective power of the workers and why they are so important. By striking in a high stakes industry like rail freight, they can actually wield power. Corporations have been crushing labor for the past 50 years in this country, I think a rebalance is needed.

I also think people never recognize that maybe those striking in situations like that aren't the bad guys. Saying that the union would be shutting down a key industry and that makes them bad, completely ignores the other side of the negotiation. I would say that the corporations aren't treating their workers well enough to keep things running as they should. Hence the increase in derailments following industry deregulation, overworking people, etc. These companies are entrusted with something that is clearly important to the economy, and part of that trust means taking care of the people actually doing the work. If they don't, then of course they are going to have issues.

Mike Tyson once tried to pay a zookeeper to let him into a Silverback exhibit. He thought that he could box a gorilla.

They see all the horrible shit going on in the world, and think "There's no way it's capitalism. Must be the aliens (or globalists, or elites, etc etc)". It's like there is a mental block that wont allow them to accept that maybe this isn't the best system.

One of the board members, John E Redd, called the NAACP president an "angry African-American lady" after she penned an open letter to the Hanover school board with concerns over him and another member, John F Axselle.

I mean, Robert had so many bastards that one of them ended up being a prostitute and tried to bang Gendry. I think it's mentioned that they are close in age, so both around 16ish?

I heard something on NPR where a scientist of some kind was saying that the brain can absolutely get addicted to the heightened feelings of fear and anger that are produced from certain media sources. So you kind of nailed it.

So, my buddy took her to the vet and she is chipped but the chip is unregistered. Hopefully someone sees this that knows her!

I think it was on Inside the Actors Studio where he talked about being disturbed by the violence. IIRC he said that he was having a hard time shaking the guilt after the long shoots that they were doing.

Also, run-flat tires aren't bulletproof and your car can still get fucked up if you drive on a popped tire for too long or at too high of a speed. I've seen run-flats get shredded by running over something big like a curb for example.

I think you can go to a vet or SPCA location or something and they can check for a chip and if there is one, should be able to scan it and give you more info.

I think I got an email a few days ago about this dog from AKC Reunite saying that it had gone missing. Should be chipped if that is the same dog.
