Well they do stack ranking. The promotions are not guaranteed, but the firings for people at the bottom of the leaderboard are.

Hold what? Who?

Maybe you’ll be a good fit for joining the league of nations. You see, they are the seed for the world government, and they’re going pretty well /s

I think it makes sense. The bill will be paid off from taxes, so it makes sense that the bailout comes with company stock transfer to workers.

It’s fair for many reasons. One of them is that billionaires and corporations don’t pay taxes.

What about, instead of 50%, make the bailed out company be 100% owned by the people - not the government, the people.

I wouldn’t say reserved. I would say VERY reserved.

And mildly toxic optimist, don’t you dare say something that could be interpreted as pointing that there may eventually exist a problem in your workplace, they may give you the side eye if they happen to be in a very bad mood.

Iannis Varoufakis (there’s probably 2+ typos there) has coined something like digital feudalism.

I think it makes more sense when imperialism is between countries like in this case, but if you get rid of imperialism you still have feudalism between the tech companies and the users of their monopolistic products, on their terms.

That was me, then I moved to Australia where I’m considered a blabber mouth extroverted.

"Im sorry that’s ghoulish as f**k,

Well let’s see what AI Ozzy has to say:

• totally, fucking lit, oh yeah babe

Checks out. Pretty sure real Ozzy would have said something similar. Turing test is approved.

Too soon, this should happen after they win what they want.

Only as long as the state has monopoly on violence ( as in physical violence as well as in non physical threats: taxes, fines etc). When the workers take their share of the monopoly, the tables turn in their favour.

As long as the compensation is unfair no one bats an eye. Don’t you dare pay fair compensation, oh no that’s not what unions are for. /s

And that’s the whole point. Why should 10 private jets with total of 10 passengers get 10x more attention than a single airbus with 300 passengers?

That’s like a medium sized oil tanker.

Yep the main driver is that people didn’t need to fly, it’s an option, so they had incentives to make it look safe (just being safe is very hard but not enough).

While most surgeries are not really optional and the only incentives are profit by hospitals. What are you going to do, not have surgery?

Ha it’s so easy to bypass bad word regex, just try asking in a language other than English. I doubt these fuckers even remember such thing exists.

Unless the container had a bug that they know but you don’t know.

That’s not my reference. I’m saying CIA backed the current authoritarian state of Iran when the left was gaining ground in Iran through democracy.

The first example most people cite when the subject is “why don’t you like CIA”. Second is likely Pinochet in Chile. Same play book.

Landlord lock in, that’s a funny one. So what’s the plan, move to another town because you can’t find a 4 story building available for next week to avoid rent increase?

Yeah that’s what tends to happen when monopolies and oligopolies form. That streamer should be making money equally from a diversified pool of YouTube, patreon, Spotify and discord and at least 3 others. If they started earning more in one platform they should pull back to keep the income balanced

/S

I mean, that’s how we got here, so I guess doubling down will only take us to where we are, but with extra effort.

Yeah only their bros can check whether that’s true, and they agreeeeee!
