Hopefully it’s a painful enough lesson he never comes near politics again.

The cruelty and death is the point. ICE are fascists.
Yup, what’s important for people to understand is that AIPAC is the single largest source of GOP money in Democratic primaries and campaigns.
They take money from right-wing billionaires and use it to back right-wing Democrats who they know can be relied upon to be obstructionist.
AIPAC funding needs to be banned within the party, same as they did with the NRA who tried to do the same thing.
Hey look, a genocide supporter.
If I do a job efficiently that doesn’t mean my boss should then get to then extract free labor out of me. It’s why hours alone are a poor way of judging labor value, and it results in a vicious cycle of demanding more and more productivity from workers with them getting less for it.
I think the work day for most types of work should be shortened with no reduction in pay because it’s been proven that many industries can reduce the work week to 32 hours with no drop in productivity, and in fact it comes with savings for the business (ex. less time running facilities and services, better use of resources).
If a customer is provided a quote before hand then that should just be the price, if the contractor can’t provide what was promised in the time frame they themselves gave then that’s on them.
There needs to come a point where the workers themselves start receiving the benefits of their own efficiency – when time is created it should be workers who get that time back for themselves, instead what we see is that the CEOs syphon up all that extra time for themselves and either work less or convert it into money for their own pocket.
Definitely, he never should’ve run and the other candidates never should have endorsed him as they dropped, especially since Sanders actually had steam and could’ve easily fulfilled the “Not Trump” space that Biden claimed he needed to be there to fill.
But, neoliberals are gonna neolib.
Ok, so Haitians are just pre-disposed to violence and savagery and it’s best to just let them eat eachother to death. Got it.
You’re sure you’re not the imperialist?
Not an answer. You literally don’t have one, all you’ve got is “America bad”.
Welp, the US is sitting this one out, so now’s your chance to offer a solution on how to help without US interference.
I’d imagine it’s connected to both. Russia and China are the main antagonists to US hegemony, hoping they’ll get to be the next empire if they can drive enough of a wedge between western allies and get enough debt colonialism going in SA and Africa.
So yeah, they are fostering crisis, authoritarian sentiment, and spinning anti-democratic narrative wherever they can, but Israel’s genocide and complete disregard for things like the ICC/ICJ (the kinds of institutions upon which the post-war rules based order is supposed to rest) has only further degraded US international standing. Biden vetoing UN resolutions and chastising the international courts for investigating Israel does not help.
Biden’s whole election schtick was that he was there to reassure the rest of the world after Trump’s carastrophic administration, and now he’s showing his ass anyway.
Damn, Yorgos and Emma Stone cranking out films together for whatever reason. I feel like Poor Things wasn’t released that long ago.
You do understand Haiti is being run by gangs at the moment, right? Close to a hundred thousand people have fled the capital city, this isn’t some righteous revolution or something, it’s a bunch of small time fascists taking advantage of a weak state and an unwillingness by the US to get involved try to seize power.
The UN and US are providing funding to help Kenya provide some kind of security. Whats your alternative? Let Haiti burn?
Well, good I suppose, though I feel like this could be sort of a desperate attempt to shore up geopolitical influence that’s being deflated by our relationship with Israel.
Post-WWII rules based order is kind of disintegrating and neoliberals are scrambling to prop it up without actually admitting to why it’s failing.
Well, you’ve gotta leave enough of a percentage for all the Russian and CCP sockpuppets.
It was more a reference to Latimer’s racist dog whistles. Stuff like claiming Bowman has an “ethnic advantage” and accusing Bowman of representing Deerborn, MI because he criticizes Israel.
He’s continually tokenized black people, his response to criticism over his racist remarks has been that he can’t be racist because there are black people who’ve endorsed him. Literally the “I have black friends” argument.
Latimers just another racist old conservative with AIPAC funding shoved up his ass.
Yeah, the Hamas air force has been really just decimating Gaza.
George “I’ve got black friends” Latimer
This behavior is more a response to the notion that a work day should be 100% productivity at all times, but that’s not how most jobs work nor how human beings do work.
I get paid to do a certain job, if I’m given 6 hours to do a job and finish it in 3 and then do nothing for the next 3 hours that’s not me being lazy or taking advantage of my employer.
Linux nerds kind of lost the public relations war, the long-time antagonism towards “normie” users has created a lingering notion that linux is a pain in the ass and unaccomodating, even as some devs have tried to make it more inviting. It’s a difficult hump to overcome I think.
It kind of puts things into perspective when you realize that Ronald Reagan withheld munitions to strong arm the Israeli regime into stopping their bombing of Lebanon. Biden is to the right of Reagan here, that’s how far the Overton window has been moved and why Biden is struggling to get the Democratic base to vote for him even against a convicted felon; he’s not a Democrat in any meaningful sense of the word.
Such a pathetic, weak effort by the Biden admin. Imagine having to build an entire pier and do air drops to deliver aid because “The US’s greatest ally” won’t allow you to deliver aid directly.
Israel is literally an enemy to the US. This is not how allies behave towards eachother.
