Our family friend Mimi Wada co-produced and co-starred in the new "Snack Sakura" that shows ( hostess ) through the experiences of the expert Canadian Greg Girard. It is under 25 minutes and posted for free at https://hi-lo.tv/Our-Work or permalink https://player.vimeo.com/video/935465833

Other professors used to take me to snacks when I was single, so I was well aware that hostesses were mostly divorced or single mothers. Mimi sheds light on the nature of snacks by saying that has a dark side. Regarding the that Greg mentions, Mimi clarifies that there is a double standard whereby men can go to snacks openly, but it is shameful for to work in them. Now I'm a family man, but I sympathize with such women, who would otherwise have to for close to the minimum wage.

A documentary succeeds insofar as it sheds light on the topic. If you watch it, perhaps let us know your impressions.

Wrong wrong and wrong.

Honestly, why won’t you do 30s of Googling to check what you’re saying?

Communism is when the state owns the economy and you have a planned economy.

Socialism is the ownership OR regulation of the means of production.

Yes. We are social democracies.

But no, social democracies aren’t capitalist, dingdong. Let’s look at the very first sentence here:

en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_democracy

democracy is a political, social, and economic philosophy within socialism[1]

SOCIALISM

You’re just conflating market economies and capitalism, like I already explained

Dasus , to memes in Come on Barbie lets go Party

“system built on capitalism”

You still don’t even understand what I mean when I say you’re conflating “capitalism” and market economies.

You think when people buy and sell things, that’s “capitalism.”

Is Finland a social democracy? Yes

And what does this say about what school of thought does social democracies belong to? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_democracy

democracy is a political, social, and economic philosophy within socialism[

"wää wää wää no it’s not socialism, it’s capitalism, but I refuse to believe it and I don’t have to explain myself"

  • you

Please define socialism for me.

Because this an official definition

a political and economic theory of social organization which advocates that the means of production, distribution, and exchange should be owned or REGULATED BY the community as a whole. “we want a real democratic and pluralist left party—one which unites all those who believe in socialism”

Even the US has socialist policies, because “pure” capitalism is completely unworkable, because it kills the economy stone dead

Dasus , to memes in Come on Barbie lets go Party

Examples of Socialist market economies include Market Socialism, a form of Socialism built on competing worker-owned co-operatives.

Honestly. Like seriously honestly adult adult honestly. Why the fuck do you not bother to spend 30 seconds checking concepts you have no idea about, and instead pull shit out of your arse?

Market socialism isn’t defined by worker cooperatives, it’s defined by socialism which utilises market economy. Like the socialist democracies of the Nordic countries.

You can’t even define capitalism, yet demand everyone is utilising it.

If a country doesn’t have a planned economy, you won’t admit it’s not capitalist. Which is so dumb I can’t even find the words to describe it.

“Capitalist social democracies”

So just refusing reality, huh?

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Social_democracy

democracy is a political, social, and economic philosophy within socialism

SOCIALISM

How hard is this for you to understand?

SOCIALISM

not “withing capitalism”

Capitalism with regulation is still Capitalism. Socialism is when Workers share ownership of the Means of Production, simple as.

No, it simply isn’t. That’s like saying “you’re not gay as long as you don’t penetrate another mans anus, sexual attraction to men has nothing to do with being homosexual”.

The simple definition of socialism is when the means of production are owned OR REGULATED BY the government.

Which part of “OR REGULATED” do you not understand?

This is exactly what I meant with my first comments. Delusional fuckers like you, pretending all market economy is capitalism. Even the US doesn’t have “pure” capitalism, as the antitrust laws are by definition socialist policies.

A doctor in child psychiatry says: "The abuser is capable of waiting to commit the act."
People scare the child by saying "Daddy's going to prison, and you wouldn't want that, because Daddy loves you so much".

"The legal system gives the benefit of the doubt to the aggressor and it's up to the child to provide proof..."
"You know full well that if you report a family that is deprived or in a precarious situation, you're more likely to be believed than if you report a family of teachers or doctors. It becomes a 'social problem' of poor people."

Which flavor of is inability to feel belonging to any group? I think, I finally got why I don’t get that thing. Basically, a gender is just another cohort, with some assumed properties. A group one feels belonging to. And I have never felt as a part of any group. I never fit in. Each cohort is supposed to have certain properties, and I just never have all. I just feel like impostor in any, including any gender/sexuality groups, including

@olena I would associate that with being and I think it’s partly why I consider my from a physiological standpoint. When I consider it from a social and sexual perspective, there’s a lot more ambiguity. Is this due to my difficulty with constructs or a connection with them I don’t ? This results in a loop I have to terminate and then tend to avoid. I accept others’ gender expression at face value but I default to . @actuallyautistic

🤔 of this kind could reduce the need for human in certain tasks and industries. What implications could arise? How should we rethink the right to ? What actions should and training institutions take today to prepare tomorrow's workers for a like this?

🤔 What will happen to that cannot keep up with this if it gains traction? On what other aspects can those businesses focus their competitive advantage, and how should we reimagine the very idea of competitive advantage in a world where industrial can learn and work autonomously? What kind of technological and divide might arise from these innovations?

People wrongly assume that Autistic people are asocial or anti-social. In my book "The New Normal" I make the case that we are AuSocial with our own cultural and social practices.

Here I expand on that a bit further.

I think the best outcome of the ongoing Reddit corporate trashfire would be if each subreddit mod team opened their own Kbin server for supporting and migrating their community, running their way.
