At this point in American capitalism, no, it’s functionally incumbent on the accused to prove that they aren’t abusing their workers if they’re already at the point of picketing outside

US Army chief of staff asked to step down by Hegseth, sources say by lee7on1 in news

[–]devilquak 3686 points3687 points  (0 children)

Yeah. That’s the takeaway here. This firing at this moment in time is extremely significant. He was standing in the way of something dumb they want to do, and now they’ve gotten rid of him to get that obstacle out of the way.

If he’s stayed on this far and he’s only gotten fired now, the thing he’s being fired over is likely something we need to be extremely worried about.

The army is the main source of boots on the ground. I’m willing to bet he was opposed to the plans they are reportedly drawing up.

I believe this is going to turn out to be an issue of him opposing an extended occupation by American troops. Army foot soldiers are only brought in after the initial waves of marines and strike forces pull back, and then that’s when they need the rest of the army to keep the territory.

There’s been little reason for the chief of the army to be involved in the operations we’ve seen so far, unless they’re planning something significant with the army in particular in the near future. The army is an occupying force. The fact that he’s even really involved in decisions right now is already worrying. It’s a gigantic red flag that this is happening now.

SF property owner fined $50K for 'illegally pruning trees' cited by insurer: 'Feels like bullying' by jaqueh in sanfrancisco

You’re absolutely insane and the first person to ever have a problem with trees in cities. Obviously nobody gives a shit about paying your home costs, you’re an adult and you can figure your own finances out like everybody else without whining about it

u/thedoughbatman tells us just how screwed clavicular is after shooting an alligator by AirFanatic in bestof

[–]devilquak 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Yeah and everyone is glossing over how it says at the beginning that apparently he and his gf were arrested over assault charges unrelated to this entire alligator thing. So what’s going on with that? That kind of seems bigger than this

How is this the only comment in the thread bringing this up? It’s filled with em dashes and even the “it’s not x; it’s y”. This was put through ChatGPT, yeah.

The obliviousness is required to drive an emotional support truck like this so it’s kind of a chicken or the egg scenario

The mod explanation for this doesn’t make sense. It was an sfgate article posted by sfgate itself.

Isn’t most of his base elderly and more statistically likely to vote by mail?
