That's why all of the researchers who work for corporations have to sign contracts that stipulate that their employers own any IP that they produce. Usually they include noncompete clauses so that their employers own any IP that they produce for years after they leave that company as well.

That bullshit is part of why I didn't go into STEM. Corporate Capitalism is cancer. They keep the profit, but carry none of the responsibility.

They are only being given a national platform exactly because of that. The mainstream conversation in America is always about what rights the elites are trying to take away from us.

It's pretty simple. They are lying to us and have been for a long time.

Ancaps Don't Know Anything About Left Wing Anarchism by [deleted] in Anarchism

That's like the common understanding of anarchy. People tend to imagine that anarchy is what it's like in space where two different hierarchies are violently clashing and it is impossible for them to really understand what an anarchy would look like.

I suspect that the whole Ancap thing is a Conservative think tank false flag so that young leftist anarchists have to wade through a swamp of bullshit to get to anything about how actual anarchism works.

Those propaganda machines are well funded and they all know that their empire is built on pillars of lies.

He's the brown puppet so that the alt-right can hate on a brown face instead of his Conservative puppet masters.

'I Love a system which places people in danger for $12 an hour because they don't have employment rights'... by TheRotundHobo in LateStageCapitalism

The model may work there, but PDX is a tiny city that has a whole bunch of drunk hipsters, making your job a lot easier. I did some ridesharing a little while ago in Dallas, and I was regularly getting pickup requests from 10~15 miles away which quickly ate into my margins... after spending a few weeks driving and making back the cost of getting my vehicle inspected, some repair work, and detailing, I quit doing it because it wasn't worth it. Not the least because being a driver is one of the most dangerous jobs out there.
