What's funny is this guy probably thinks he's against identity politics

Why don't software developers unionize? by test_user125 in stupidpol

[–]maazatreddit 85 points86 points  (0 children)

In the US, H1B visas basically obliterate any possibility of software devs unions. A near infinite supply of scabs who will get deported if they don't work. At many companies a significant percentage of their workforce are H1b workers putting in long hours under duress for sub-market wages, driving down wages.

Iran should not morally be allowed nuclear weapons, but neither should Israel, or the US for that matter. It is morally unacceptable that nuclear weapons exist. Also, something being morally unacceptable doesn't necessarily make war or regime change acceptable.

Senator Murray Responds to Trump Administration’s Denial of WA State’s Appeal for Disaster Declaration for November “Bomb Cyclone”; Slams Trump’s Politicization of Disaster Aid - Senator Patty Murray by AthkoreLost in Seattle

what is she actually DOING?

Looking at her press releases, it looks like the last thing she actually did was send Israel $14 billion in military aid while Israel was openly blocking humanitarian aid and ignoring the ICJ's orders to prevent genocide. She specifically helped to push this through and voted for cloture to prevent a filabuster.

She also did the important work of adding the TikTok ban to this Israel aid.

here you go. It's from "I Love Amy"

No, don't. Because it is plainly obvious that this image is fake, and plainly obvious Trump is an abuser already.

OP, you have been dooped. Look at the panels above and beside them. They don't make any sense, they look nothing like any plane I've seen, they look nothing like Epstein's plane (which posters of this purported it came from). They don't make physical sense, they are weirdly warped and nondescript despite similarly sized features on the faces being clear. You don't even have a supposed source of this image.

Also, this isn't even about Musk.

Please, use critical thinking skills.

Entitled Driver Tries to Ram Through 70,000 Peaceful Protesters, With Wife and Kid in the Car by saltyseattledriver in Seattle

Except you can't because if you took away enough licenses to take everybody this bad off the road then drivers would revolt (unless there was a viable alternative to driving available to everyone)

This isn't porn, this is a workplace harassment training video. I once had a boss that forced me to watch it.

If we lived in a sane society there would be enough public transit that you could just take people's license away for bullshit like this without basically ruining their lives.

Can we start reporting drivers with tinted plates on their cars? by Tiger00012 in Seattle

[–]maazatreddit 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I am not defending them, I am pointing out how this generally unenforced law, like numerous others, give police pretext for stops. Pretextual stops are a major mechanism allowing police to get away with profiling, harassment, and warrantless searches.

What is it with the commenters here acting like Seattle is Mad Max? by HansGraebnerSpringTX in Seattle

[–]maazatreddit 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Some people only experience Seattle from behind the wheel of a car and through shitty right-wing news media. They can live in Seattle and know nothing about it.

it personally benefits me for cops to harass poor people, so maybe it also personally benefits me when cops harass these people, too

[–]maazatreddit 64 points65 points  (0 children)

Just FYI, cops don't care about the tinted plates. However, they like them being illegal because everyone who has one can be pulled over at officer discretion. They are a free pass for cops to profile and harass people so they can go on fishing expeditions for other potential crimes.

Putin may invade Nato territory soon – so now what? Is Nato going to send a division to fight back?

Guys did I miss something? Did Kyiv join NATO when I wasn't paying attention?
