MechaJutaro , (edited ) in Michigan Arab and Muslim leaders fuming after second Biden visit this year with no meeting

There are many Muslims on my father’s side of the family, and I’ve spent every day of Biden’s presidency fuming also… A fella who was a zealous supporter of The Invasion Of Iraq during the years in which it was politically expedient to be so, and who’s always been a rabid champion of drone strikes, hasn’t been more sympathetic to the day to day struggles of both me and others of my ethnicity

Next, we’ll be reading of a male celebrity who marketed himself as an Intersectionalist ally getting arrested for smuggling pre-pubescent kids out of Central America and into The US, so that he could subject them to gang rape parties at his mansion in The Hollywood Hills each weekend

jordanlund , in Customer Service Company That Worked With Disney, Comcast Will Pay $2M to Workers to Settle Lawsuit Over Pay Practices

“One agent in the Arise network who won in arbitration, Tami Pendergraft, paid about $1,500 for home office equipment, paid for a background check and training, devoted 44 unpaid days to passing a certification course, and then worked three weeks fielding telephone calls from AT&T customers. After all that, she got a single paycheck for $96.12.”

AT&T makes $122 billion a year. No individual worker needs to be subsidizing their onboarding process.

Whenever I read AIPAC, I’m always disappointed afresh to find it’s not a PAC for the regulation of AI.

Do you guys think MAGA will end if Biden wins the election?

Etterra ,

Probably not. It’s a cult of personality. The good news though is that most cults don’t survive the death of their leader. Usually it requires a solid second in command to step up and reform things to save it.

The most likely result here will be the crazy brigade will stay around until T***p dies. After that it’ll splinter and dissolve into infighting while some few people go back to something vaguely like reality.

And like most petty dictators, Trump has been diligent in preventing anyone from becoming a solid second-in-command, because he fears all potential threats to his dominance. If he dies, because he’s an out-and-out monarchist, the only possible heirs will literally be his heirs, and fighting between his children to assume his legacy will be bitter and bloody.

If you aren’t a cis white het male willing to lie about being prot this is the time to get dual citizenship somewhere else. And this is exactly why I am making sure my daughters get it.

You do not want to be in a line behind 30 million refugees trying to get into Canada. You want to be able to go to an embassy and secure right of return.

Kyatto , in Bernie Sanders unveils 32-hour workweek bill with no loss in pay for workers
@Kyatto@leminal.space avatar

That would be a great thing but I also had another idea, why can’t a test be devised and codified into law, to tie minimum wage to. I know the main reasons why, obstructionist capitalists, but a test to find a living wage, average rent costs tied with other bill expenses and grocery costs. The companies raising costs feel free but the minimum wage will rise. Could something like this work? Tie wages and service/goods costs together to incentivize either livable/thrivable wages or lower costs. either way we need one of those two things, more buying power, or… more buying power.

Something to stop the decages long stagnation of worker compensation.

Zink ,

Of course that could work. That’s why it won’t even be considered in the current political climate.

Kyatto ,
@Kyatto@leminal.space avatar

Of course, I do enjoy the fantasy, especially on the precipice of an election that decides my right of existence.

The walls were to keep us in, not the other way around, after all.

Zink ,

Well not only do you deserve to exist, but I am glad you exist.

How miserable must some peoples’ lives & minds be that they need to make Kyattophobia a significant part of their political concerns and/or personality?

In contrast, I find that being Kyattophilic enhances the life and the mind!

kyattophilic?

Well not only do you deserve to exist, but I am glad you exist.

thank you ^-^

I love the analogy of Hummers overrunning Priuses, because while Hummers are more dangerous that Priuses, they both kill pedestrians, burn gasoline, and dump microplastics everywhere.
