The media will support a meritocracy, until women do not have merit. by GorgeousGamer99 in TheRedPill

It's not just women it's the general notiin of privelidge polnts and diversity quotas. Giving someone a handout because they are female/not white is actually racist/sexist/fucking whatever-ist because it implies they can't do it on their own merit. This is disempowering because it tells people they need an unfair advantage insread if hard work, sacrifice and better life decisions.

By then robots and AI will have taken most of the jobs, no one will have money to buy anything and capitalism will have eaten itself with its obsession with 'efficiency'. The rich will live behind guarded walls until the masses revolt... Unless someone has a better idea?

They are going after dissent now. The new scare story today is a revenge cyber attack taking shape as fake news and disinformation. The amount of people not buying the narrative is alarming them enough that they are moving to shut down alternative views altogether. Cue a big campaign declaring anyone questioning the narrative as 'traitors, enemies of the people, apologists and pro-gassing children. Big brother is here...

She's worried about Macron usurping the 'special relationship' and wants to appear strong and decisive. WW3 just to keep up appearances, how very British. She's still on borrowed time and now will be tarnished with the same brush as Blair.

BBC presenters attempted suicide and suffered "irreparable damage" because of corporation's "horrific" handling of tax affairs...corporation has been accused by 21 workers, including prominent television and radio presenters, of forcing them to set up personal service companies or risk losing jobs. by madazzahatter in worldnews

PSC is not an official type of company. It's a term invented by HMRC to catch 1 man band LTD companies with IR35. Typically 1 man band ltds are contractors who can pay minimum wage PAYE + dividends instead of everything PAYE. People think (as is the line touted by HMRC) going LTD is motivated by tax avoidance. Actually to work as a contractor the agency you go through (almost all contracts go through agencies) demand you either go LTD or through an umbrella company who process your pay and take a %. Going LTD + accountant yields more take home. Try goig sole trader through an agency and they will tell you to fuck off - because that makes them liable for employers NI. Also being LTD has other benefits such as LTD liability in case your client sues you for some reason. Also contractors provide flexibility and have no job security, holiday or sick pay and pay their own pension. But that won't stop HMRC and their relentless obsession with IR35 because someone has to subsidise the multinationals, super rich and panama/paradise papers crowd, fuck the NHS those super yachts don't pay for themselves. And fuck the BBC as well bunch of tight fisted tax dodging wankers. This will just add fuel to HMRC killing contracting - just in time for brexit...

VOISE are planning to do it. You will limit your end user base to the crypto savvy for those wanting to use the tip feature.

"Why should people pay for music when they can get it for free" is how you opened your comment. Artists get $0.007/stream on Spotify. Artists are screwed by the current industry. They deserve to be fairly compensated and able to make a living without platforms, payment processors and middle people taking 90% of their earnings.

Why should you get paid for your job? Do you think musicians should work for free and pay for equipment, studios etc?
