Little coward is probably afraid of getting the Brock Allen Turner treatment.

I’m with ZombiePirate. They do. This video explains it rather well, actually.

Dang. You’ve gone from ‘that never happens’ (even though it does) to ‘child labor is hilarious’. You just keep on digging, don’t you?

Here you go!

Tell that to my friend’s grandma. Latest arrest record at 80, for whacking a cop with her handbag at a protest.

Being muzzled by the DNC

Wait… just to be clear, is your argument ‘because only a few plants have been caught doing it, that means no other companies will?’

I want to be sure I have that right before I reply.

You do realize several plants in the US have already been caught using child labor, right?

Because true respect is something money can’t buy.

They say money can buy you whatever you want, but really it can only buy you items and appearances. But rich people spend so much time just throwing money at various desires and issues that they tend to confuse appearances with substance. Note Musk buying ‘skill’ at video games, and the push for AI—because it allows them to pretend to have skill at something they don’t.

So they endlessly chase appearances, and are confused when all they end up holding is empty air. An unsatisfying feeling, to say the least.

When you have everything else, and you’re still not happy, and throwing money at the issue is your only skill, you keep trying that, no matter how often it doesn’t work.

And just because you didn’t vote for a racist sexist committed felon, means you’re better?

Yes.

Because your party is so great and wants you to prosper? Or is it just controlled by corporations and billionaires with the same agendas?

Don’t know when I said anything about parties or what I think of Democrats. Pretty sure that’s an entirely different topic. (I think they’re the controlled opposition party, for what it’s worth.)

Did you say, ‘You mean like you?’

When they voted for their own suffering, I find it difficult to sympathize with them.

Oh for fuck’s sake. Social Security is not a Ponzi scheme. Would people stop with that bullshit already?

I think you might need to brush up on your reading comprehension, and maybe your empathy. You’re coming off a bit condescending her. e

It’s quite simple.

Conservatism consists of exactly one proposition, to wit: There must be in-groups whom the law protects but does not bind, alongside out-groups whom the law binds but does not protect.

He offers them a spot in the first group. That’s it. That’s all. They have been raised from birth to believe they deserve it, and they’ve been taught their whole lives that the evil democrats won’t let them have it.

You don’t have to be stupid to believe something like that, just abysmally self-centered.

And he’s actually giving it to them, you’ll notice. The first leader they’ve voted for in a long time that did so unequivocally. They’ll walk through fire for him now.

Isn’t she retiring soon?

I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro’s great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen’s Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to “order” than to justice; who prefers a negative peace which is the absence of tension to a positive peace which is the presence of justice; who constantly says: “I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action”; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man’s freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a “more convenient season.”

Shallow understanding from people of good will is more frustrating than absolute misunderstanding from people of ill will. Lukewarm acceptance is much more bewildering than outright rejection.

-Martin Luther King Jr

Been thinking about this quote a lot lately.

He’s Gloriously Suffering For The Team so that they can Win The War Against Wokeness and make all the PoC in the world go away, thus Making America Great Again!

Why, it’s just like being a soldier on the front lines! Suffering, self-martyrdom, and the chance to be A Part of Something Special! All for the low, low price of his livelihood and (nearly nonexistent) thinking skills!

Do you rub their noses in it at all? Because I know I would.

48% disapproving.

He’s destroying our entire government and 52% of Americans think ‘yeah, this is fine’ or ‘yeah, who cares?’
