Probably one that’s feeling the pressure from over 1000 workers organized into multiple unions and wants an out. At least that’s my bedtime fantasy

US government too. Blinken and Biden should face a new Nuremberg as well.

A left-wing serial murderer that was tortured by the CIA, being appointed next to Trump? Yes please

And Blinken will find some excuse to keep pushing arms despite them crossing the line

Wow things sure changed about Android roms! I still remember how difficult it was to try to simply install a rom through Knox

That seals the deal for me on rooting my pixel. I’ve been hesitant about rooting ever since I bricked an extra galaxy s3 and nearly bricked my (main device) Verizon galaxy s5

I agree with most of your analysis, when viewed through the lens of immediate consequences. However I’d like to push back on the idea that it’s just revolutionary roleplay, and I’d like to explain why I see things that way.

I’ll agree that both parties, as in the voting base and establishment, are generally supportive of capitalist policies. However I believe that it’s far deeper than that. Not only are the folks at the top of both parties capitalists, but a vast majority of all the fundraising money they earn comes from billionaires. In a political context, money is never given without a reason. When you or I donate money, it’s because we want to see 1 or more candidates to win. When a billionaire donates money, they want political influence to direct party and government policy to benefit them and their capital. If they can’t get that influence with one party, they will happily change party allegiance because the duopoly does not provide any wiggle room for genuinely progressive policies due to financial incentive, unless there is a true working class crisis (i.e. the fallout from the great depression). It’s happened constantly throughout US history.

I will always point out that Marx would have never been able to do his crucial work in economics and political theory had Engels not funded and co-authored the endeavors. Everyone in the ruling class has the capacity to become a class traitor and fight for workers, but not the incentive. Mark Reuben genuinely seems like a decent person to me, and I respect him stepping in with Cost Plus. However, he has an economic incentive to get influence through the democratic party to improve profits for his other ventures at the cost and exploitation of the workers at those companies. It’s nowhere near as blatant as Musk, but it’s absolutely still present. If the Democratic party puts forward a policy that is in direct opposition to his profits, that support will dry up immediately.

Not only that, but remember how the democratic party forcibly pushed out Bernie in 2016, because he was offering genuine improvements to the working class? That pressure came from both the billionaire donors and the billionaire party establishment. The same happened in NY to AOC, to a lesser extent and primarily over her anti-genocide and anti-colonial stance towards Israel. The billionaires want to profit off of illegally seized land, and they do not care how many people they need to kill to get that profit. In my eyes, this might be a reason why Harris didn’t even try to disingenuously sell an anti-genocide stance.

He’s just another Republican. And that’s just another form of capitalist, so it’s the same as a Democrat too. /s

I’m genuinely asking, because from my perspective you’ve always seemed to be on the socialist progressive side of things and it’s something that seems to be true as indicated by the ratcheting effect. Do you truly understand where this sentiment comes from?

“deter Iran” from the war that Israel is trying to start?

How many people do you think ozma can reach? How many people do you think were personally disaffected by ozma? Why is it ozma’s fault that the aggressively Republican campaign Harris ran didn’t inspire people to actually vote?

They’re allowed to play wherever they want. If they cared about the genocide then they would boycott Israel.

I’m excited to see them succeed. I love it when stuff is designed with function over form, and made practically. I’m a tall person, this is the only small electric vehicle I feel I could actually fit in

You mean the table that the US government built by gutting US manufacturing in the 90s?

Why the fuck are US citizens not allowed to vote in a US election?

Tech companies hate disabled people generally, considering one of the largest tech unions in the US had a rally about disability rights earlier today

Better yet, they shouldn’t

Of course they fucking do. Just like how the police were supercharged in LA during the Olympics and they’re still one of the most militarized units in the country today. Countries use the Olympics as an excuse to slip in shit that would never fly otherwise.

Ethnic cleansing is a type of genocide.

I wish more people would know that NDAs can never cover illegal actions, such as workplace harassment and discrimination. You have a right to speak out. Please use your voice, the boat was already rocked when they discriminated against you.
