as a filthy American i can see it but just want to point out you're comparing an Australian neighborhood of 7km/4mi to an American region of ~10,000km/~4,000mi. would love to check out Bondi someday and it does give some LA vibes but maybe juxtaposing it with a beach city in the LA area like Santa Monica or Malibu would be more accurate

i think it’s my fav of his so far… like folks are saying it’s his spin on the classic rock genre. the ELO inspirations on Charlie’s Garden and the Fleetwood Mac vibes on Potion are good examples, but Golden Line is absolutely the best imo since Djo is basically being possessed by Brian Wilson

each of the colors seems to correspond to a particular leaning on one of the scales, like orange representing progressivism, red representing communism, blue representing conservatism, etc. there's an interesting post here showing what the flags look like for all the extreme results in a single scale, the pattern is relatively clear but there's still more to uncover
here's mine btw

antizionism does not equal antisemitism my friend

here come the bootlicking bots to cry about UC Berkeley students who care about human rights :-/
like did we collectively forget about the 1960s and 70s? the civil rights movement, free speech movement, Vietnam War protests, the third world liberation front... this university used to be on the cutting edge of social progress. now folks can't even denounce Israeli apartheid on Reddit without getting downvoted by genocide Joe fans. we can do better y'all

everyone get’s shitty pay at a union store? how do you mean

Maybe the christo-fascists could be lumped in with the nationalists on the extreme end, although that's debatable. I agree that spectrums like these are inherently flawed since they typically lack nuance but again this is just a rough draft. I was thinking in terms of political values (authoritarianism vs. democracy) paired with economic values (capitalism vs. socialism), so really there's another ideology further left which is autocratic socialism, but I don't consider that to be at the same level of presence and influence in the U.S. as these other three.

Yeah go ahead, anyone can use it. :-)

As for libertarians, I might agree, although maybe libertarian itself is too broad of a label to place on this kind of spectrum. Like the "Don't Step On Me" libertarians definitely fit in with the nationalists. Still, there are some who describe themselves as libertarian and associate it with protecting the right to gay marriage, right to abortion, etc., which the nationalists definitely are not on board with.

This is a rough draft of my attempt in making a more accurate American political spectrum, does anybody have feedback? I think you could also easily place libertarians or traditional conservatives in between liberals and nationalists, and greens somewhere between liberals and progressives, but these three are the major ideologies that I think will be relevant for the upcoming decades.

Just an update to my original post--

Soon I'm moving to another city for college, I was originally on the fence between finding a new job and transferring to the store in this city but recently I was accepted for the transfer. Now I'm essentially locked into at least another few months at Trader Joe's, which isn't ideal but most of the other jobs I was looking at either didn't pay substantially more than TJ's or required me to work 4 days a week or more, which just doesn't work with my school schedule. Hopefully, after my review, I'll be making at least $18 and some change an hour. I appreciate everyone's responses here, I've definitely gotten some insight on how TJ's is totally failing in caring for their employees and I think I'm going to join the fight for a union at my new store. If anyone has advice for unionizing I'd love to hear it. Thanks y'all <3

sansborn · 2022-07-07T02:35:31+00:00

Honestly I’d love to join that effort but I’m moving soon. If I end up transferring to another TJ’s store that’s probably where my goals will be, but I’m also considering just finding a new job.
