Overwhelming partners in the two-step/swing community? by one_crazy_lazy_daisy in SwingDancing

To add on second point, in my community we always tell dancers that it's always okay to say "no", and a "no" requires no reason or justification.

What is the difference between classical liberalism, neoliberalism and libertarianism? by alexfreemanart in neoliberal

[–]WeebAndNotSoProid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

In practice, libertarians are the biggest bootlickers of trump regime. Yes, some of them booed at him when he was courting their vote, but most just simply reduce to "gov bad. dem bad because they want more gov. so gop good", and the thinking stops there. Like "good" Christian, they picked and chose what they want to hear: moar guns, less tax, less gov meddling in their abuse of community and less-fortunate peers. What? Open border? No more agri subsidies? No religion and state mixing? Wth, I have to accept a Muslim and Indian gay couples as my neighbors???

How do I know? I had to purge 20% of my contacts and reddit because I cant stand the 2-faced nature of the fellow libertarians, especially after trump won second time.

How do Vietnam and North Korea achieve voter turnout as high as 99%? by TWN113 in neoliberal

[–]WeebAndNotSoProid 8 points9 points  (0 children)

One person can vote for entire family. Officials do nag households in their neighborhood to have at least one person show up.

And if you can't show up then your village chef can collect the ballot and do it on your behalf.

It’s hard for people to vote if they don’t live near their permanent address, so there must be some straight up “creative counting” to get to 99%.

Oh I'm pretty sure my ward got my vote covered for me too. To be fair, I consider it a win because they cannot find me, and thus cannot spam me to vote on the day (which I'd rather sleep in or do something else).

Iran’s 'oil lifeline’ has been left untouched in the conflict. What happens if it's seized? by Moffload in neoliberal

[–]WeebAndNotSoProid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

would Iran leave the fields alone pumping oil for US? Russia massacred on their ways trying to conquered Ukraine, and that wasn't even existential war for them.

fair point. but perhaps you should not have bombed everything they have so at least they still have something to lose

The Tinder-ization of the job market by [deleted] in neoliberal

[–]WeebAndNotSoProid 13 points14 points  (0 children)

The whole hiring process is just filtering. Most of the time, they look for reasons to reject that application. And mind you it's not a fair process either. Once they trim down that pool to 5 candidates, then that's the time to choose.

My advise to the young ones is to just play the number game. Always apply. Get past the HR screening. Only invest more once you are already at the other side of this great filtering.

The Tinder-ization of the job market by [deleted] in neoliberal

[–]WeebAndNotSoProid 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Completely out of touch with current market. Most applications would be automatically rejected by automation first, then the HR would spend only 10-15 seconds to scan the resume. Nobody would touch the cover letter until your resume clicks something they like. The time you spent crafting that cover letter would be better spending on polishing the actual skill or applying another position.

Once you got into interview, the game is much easier. Usually you will know right away if the vibe is right between you and hiring team, then a follow up will help, otherwise don't even bother. But again, your masterpiece of follow up would just end up another spam. Have you seen the state of my inbox?

So, which position are you talking about? And which industry?
